Make sure the web address has the "S" for secured, after the http. As in httpS://www.paypal.com

This is true, of Paypal. This isn't always the case with other sites, though, unless you enter the "shopping cart" area of some sites.

Not only that, but anyone can apply for website certificates, to "validate" the contents. I have three certificates for three different websites. It's not difficult to disguise your site as someone elses, and have the certificate contents closely resemble the intended site's certificate.

Anyhow, just be careful where you visit, and don't follow links directly in an e-mail, from an unknown source (personal friend/family member).

This should be moved to OT section, btw
