"The Romanian Police, together with law enforcement agencies from 15 other states, participate in the international campaign dedicated to online merchants, "Sell safely".

The activity aims to inform online merchants about the best security measures they can take in the context of future commercial campaigns.

Black Friday or Cyber ​​Monday is approaching, and online shopping has become easier and easier, but the safety of these purchases must be considered.

The COVID-19 pandemic has led even more consumers to turn to online commerce. For businesses, this trend brings both challenges and opportunities, but it also means a greater risk of fraud for merchants and shoppers.

This year's campaign is aimed at merchants who sell online - #SellSafe (#SellSafe).

Through this awareness campaign, launched today, law enforcement agencies from 16 countries have joined Europol's European Cybercrime Center (EC3) and the Merchant Risk Council to share practical advice on online shopping safety.

The campaign is being run under the auspices of eComm2020 and specifically targets online retailers, helping them to better identify fraud on their platforms and take steps to protect their business and customers against these attacks.”
