Check whether an online store or seller is legit before you pay — and pay in a way you can get your money back if it isn't. Use when asked is this website legit, is this online store a scam, should I buy from this site, or how to shop safely online. Produces a trust assessment from the store's signals (too-good pricing, contact/policy gaps, domain and review red flags), safe-payment guidance that preserves buyer protection, what to check before checkout, and what to do if you've already paid a scam site.

# Safe Online Shopping

Fake shops are everywhere: a slick site, an unbeatable price, and no way to get your money back once you've paid by bank transfer. This checks the store's trust signals before you buy, steers you to a payment method with buyer protection, and — if you've already paid a site that now looks wrong — switches to getting your money back.

## What This Skill Produces

- **A trust assessment** — the red and green flags in the store/listing (pricing, contact details, policies, domain age, reviews, urgency)
- **Pre-checkout checks** — what to verify before entering card details
- **Safe-payment guidance** — pay in a way that preserves chargeback/buyer protection; avoid irreversible methods
- **A verdict** — proceed / proceed carefully / avoid, with why
- **Already paid?** — recovery steps if the site turns out to be a scam (chargeback/dispute, report)
