Trusting the Devil
              "Don’t judge a book by its cover". This quote asserts and alludes that one should not be judgmental, but it isn’t the case with online shopping. Every item is designed to be displayed fine and perfect with a little charming description that would manipulate one's mind by whispering "Add to cart" multiple times, but the outcome isn’t always satisfying. Online shopping stashes numerous cons under the blanket of "discount" and "free shipping". According to me, online shopping has various disadvantages such as being subjected to online fraud and lacking definite delivery duration.
            To begin with, online shopping subjects one to online fraud or cybercrime. Sometimes, there is a disappearance of the shopping site itself. In addition to that, online payments are not much secured. For example, 15.4 million consumers were victims of identity theft or fraud, according to a news report from Javelin Strategy and Research. That's up to 16 percent from 2015, and the highest figure recorded since the firm began tracking fraud instances in 2004. Another example would be the F.B.I. for they arrested 24 people in Credit Card Theft Plan. On Tuesday 24 July 2016, after a two-year undercover operation, authorities in 13 states arrested two dozen people who are accused of fraud involving cybercrime. Federal officials said Operation Card Shop, as it is being called, was unusually broad and represented a significant step in combating credit card fraud which has grown notably more sophisticated recently.“These guys represent the complete ecosystem of Internet fraud,” said one senior law enforcement official “We drew them out of the shadows with the Web site as bait.”
        Another con for online shopping is the lack of accurate delivery duration. Long duration and lack of proper inventory management result in delays in shipment. For instance, the duration of selecting, buying and paying for an online product may not take more than 15 minutes, but the delivery of the product to customer’ s doorstep takes about 1-3-5 weeks. This frustrates the customer and prevents them from shopping online. Another example, Ali express, a well-known shopping website. A "free shipping" item takes around 53-60 days and may take longer, hoping for a satisfying product.
All in all, online shopping has many cons from a victim of cybercrime to the absence of a delivery period. As such, online shopping is dangerous in many different ways and if it is always honest, then I am Shakespeare.
