Last yr Lazada servers were breached and user credentials were stolen and sold on the dark Web. A hacker entered my account and put items in my shopping cart ..
But I did not let my credit card be stored at the website so he could not make payment.....
later I found my language setting in Aliexpress was changed to Russian and the guy was browsing expensive watches and other expensive items. Again, I was lucky I my credit card stored on site expired one month and I was issued a new credit card number that was not on the site. Aliexpress does not use OTP when you order so the hacker could have made payment if the card number wasn't expired ...so it was a close shave..
.Lesson learned ... is never
pay using credit card on the site ...use pay now or NETS. If you die die want to use credit card turn off the default setting to store it on the site.
If you use debit card it will be disastrous...the payment will deducted from your savings and banks will not return it ...so never use debit card .
If credit card, you can try to dispute but banks may not return your money like in recent cases....

I, being poor, have only my dreams; I have spread my dreams under your feet; Tread softly because you tread on my dreams.
