Also, never use your ATM Debit/Credit card, as it does not allow you to stop or dispute charges. Once the $ is gone from you account from using a bank debit card, it is gone forever with no recourse.
Always use a dedicated credit card that you use for online purchases. If you need to dispute the charges on something, they will at least do it initially while they investigate.
