In recent years, buying things online has become more and more common, so
people
use
it now to purchase clothes, books or even groceries. Although
there are some fake online stores, I think that the benefits of shopping online outweigh the drawbacks because it makes our modern lives easier and faster.
Shopping online is very well known by many people
recently and they prefer using them to go to real ones because they find them more easily and much faster than going to the mall and stuck in traffic, which wastes their time and requires effort. You have only surf your phone and pick up what you need and then
your stuff will be delivered to you in an hour at least. For example
, in my country Saudi Arabia, the majority of people
use
the Jahez application to order their household grotesque, which is very easy to use
and also
has easy payment methods. Additionally
, shopping online applications are very cheap and also
have a variety of goods and products that make people
fascinated by them. However
, I think that online stores provide good items and also
make life easier and quicker for people
.
And also
there are some disadvantages to buying things on the Internet. Firstly
, there are some fake online shopping websites that some people
believe, especially older who do not have experience with it. For instance
, in the USA, every year there is 25 per cent of elderly people
get scammed online because unfortunately they saw an advertisement and they believed it. Secondly
, some internet shops have bad quality products and also
they do not look like the photo on the app, so that prevents people
from using them again. However
, I think that there are lots of trusted shop applications that people
use
almost every month such
as Amazon.
In conclusion, although
some people
might be vulnerable to cyber fraud. I believe that shopping online is very useful to make your life better. So the positives far outnumbered the negatives.Submitted by ghazl.1998g on
