Auto Financing Online
...... advice regarding online transactions:
? Use a secure browser - software that encrypts or scrambles the purchase information you send over the Internet - to help guard the security of your information as it is transmitted to a website. Be sure your browser has the most up-to-date encryption capabilities by using the latest version available from the manufacturer.
?Check the site's privacy policy, before you provide any personal financial information to a website. In particular, determine how the information will be used or shared with others. Also check the site's statements about the security provided for your information.
? Keep your personal information private. Don't disclose your personal information - your address, telephone number, Social Security number, bank account number or e-mail address - unless you know who's collecting the information, why they're collecting it and how they'll use it.
? Give payment information only to businesses you know and trust, and only when and where it is appropriate - like an order form. Never give your password to anyone online, even your Internet service provider.
A prime example of online auto financing at its simplest is www.PreApprovedAutos.com. Visitors to the site can fill out a simple app, which is instantly submitted to reputable dealers in their area. The dealer with the best offer contact the applicant with a pre-approved loan amount, usually within a few hours. The loan quotes are free and the inquirer is under no obligation to accept the offer.
