The first thing to always check is contact information. Is there any? If not, forget it
A genuine seller will want you to be able to contact them – after all, you might want to offer them more money! Or you might have a question you want to ask about their product before you buy. Genuine sellers will be happy to answer questions
If there is contact information, look at the e-mail address. Is it free? There's nothing wrong with that by itself, but remember how easy Yahoo and Hotmail accounts are to set up. They're also more likely to be blocked by spam and pop ups
A paid-for e-mail address means a higher chance this person is legitimate.
Check the small print. Is there a disclaimer? Genuine sellers realise that their product will not be able to help everybody – no product can – and that there is a chance you'll be disappointed. As such, they'll add a disclaimer saying so.
They'll also have a money-back guarantee. Of course, the words 'money-back guarantee' are no guarantee of anything - typing something doesn't make it true, and the words alone don't mean you'll get your money back. But they're a step in the right direction.
Explore the site. What other websites does it link to? Reputable sites will only link to reputable companies .
Check the testimonials and small print
Most scam sites will include too much information like a cheque for $100,000
for a months sale with a large picture of a cheque and party popping.
check it out wher was the photo taken,when was it taken and by whom?
Ask for dates and do your own backcheck to assertain the truth.
Remember the larger the site with a while lot of "ramataz" the more the likelyhood that ther is a scam looming.Remember established and reputable companies do not need to go over the top because they are already well known
Keep your wits about and trust no one.
