Online convenience is useful, but it also comes with traps. The goal is not to be scared of everything. It is to learn how to pause, notice warning signs, and choose well.
A site can look authentic and still be fake, so small details like the URL matter.
Difficult to distinguish by appearance alone
Fake sites these days are often designed to look just like the real thing, both in color and logo. That's why you can't protect yourself by saying, "It's okay because it looks like that."
What you need to look at is the details
It will help if you notice things like the spelling of URLs, strange Japanese, screens that suddenly ask for input, and the lack of contact information. If you feel even one thing is not right, it is safer to return instead of proceeding immediately.
When you open a site, look at the spelling of the URL before looking at the content on the screen.
