Secondary Source

Chatzky, Jean. “LET THE EBUYER BEWARE.” Time 167.15 (2006): 84. Academic Search Complete. EBSCO. Web. 31 Jan. 2011.

This article is completely about internet-related money scams. It uses a young woman searching and ‘buying’ a wedding dress as an example. A vast abundance of cyber shoppers just get ‘too excited’ and they foolishly agree to wire money from a bank location to the ‘seller’- and never receive the product at all. The article then moves forward by listing and explaining some do’s and don’ts of purchasing merchandise online. It is also stated that more than 724,000 Americans use selling on eBay as their primary or secondary source of income.
