<human>:  How can I make safer online purchases?
<bot>: To make safer online purchases, it is important to take certain precautions. First, make sure the website you are purchasing from is secure and trustworthy. Ensure that any websites you use have a valid SSL certification, which will help protect your personal information. Before making a purchase, also double check that the seller is legitimate. You can do this by reading reviews, checking the domain name, or contacting customer service if available. Additionally, use a payment method that offers buyer protection, such as a debit card or a third party payment service like PayPal. Finally, make sure to keep records of the purchase including the website, transaction number, and any other information associated with the transaction.
