Shopping Safety: About Our Security

We receive many emails from users asking how secure it is to send their credit card number through the Internet. The fear exists that somehow their card number might be stolen by hackers, and then used to run up large bills.

The reality of the situation is that it is extremely unlikely your credit card number could be intercepted when placing an order through this or most other websites. Especially since we offer SSL encryption ( Secure Sockets Layer), which encrypts the data sent from your browser to our servers and is practically impossible to decrypt by even the cleverest hackers. It was documented that to break a single 40-bit encrypted transmission (such as this website uses), it was necessary to use 120 workstations and two parallel supercomputers at three major research centers for 8 days. And that was to read only one single transmission.

Stolen credit card numbers are most often obtained through methods unrelated to the Internet, the most common being stealing US mail from mailboxes or clerks in stores collecting numbers from receipts.

And once they have obtained these numbers, what then? They need to find a way to use them, and this is where Music by Mail makes great effort to insure that your card number will not be used for a fraudulent order online. We electronically verify the order with the credit companies at the moment the order is filled, returning an order confirmed message only if the credit companies authorize it. Our experienced staff then manually checks all orders which still appear unusual, canceling any we feel are not valid.

So we feel that shopping online with us is perfectly safe, just as safe as shopping in our physical store. Give it a try!
