ONLINE EARNING has become a trending word nowadays. The pandemic that has spread has made the world sit in the house; due to which many of us are suffering from the shortage of resources to live life. To fulfill the needs everyone is trying to earn in some or another way. Many reputed companies are coming up with work from home job openings, providing internships online, and much more. Many people have received benefits of these and are leading a life way better than others who are suffering a lot in this worst situation. 

The growth of this online sector has helped people in many ways. But, some cases describe the bad side of it. Some people offer online work but they first ask you to pay for registration and then they just disappear, despite earning you even lose the money you paid for registration. Some people offer work from home, but their work standards do not suit many people, so it takes a lot of time to earn a little. Online shopping is also an increasing trend nowadays but this sector is also experiencing frauds. If there is no cash or delivery service then the seller may fraud, the seller asks for money but does not ship the product. I think you all can relate to these things, all must have heard about these frauds from their friends or families. The number of online banking frauds reported in India in 2019 was more than 2100 cases. Seeing this number we can estimate the number of frauds not reported those are of small amounts and people do not report because of the negligible amount and the way it has been done. It makes me surprised and at the same time shocked when I think about the way they use and people also get stuck into their trap and helplessness to do anything. I, from my point of view, can provide you some ways to avoid getting stuck into these kinds of trap:

1. Before purchasing anything online from a person whom you, your family, or friends do not know, make sure that the seller is active on social media and is posting the customers' reviews Regular reviews ensure the trustfulness of the seller and the quality of the product as well.
2. If COD is not available, but you still believe in him and want to buy, first place an order for a small amount.
3. If anyone is offering you a job in exchange for registration money, ask for the certificate that authenticates their legality.
4. Always take the advice of the person whom you know well and who is highly experienced. Remember asking for help and support from elders and experienced is never considered indignity and is always a valuable addition to your personality.
