Greatest risk is not having a fair firewall and antivirus programs on your pc. Use a credit card or paypal/insured and you will be okay. You are more likely to be hacked than encounter internet fraud. ID theft is done by hacking into your pc for info and using that to defraud you. I only deal with "ship to address of record" dealers. That is a more sure sign of a reputable dealer whom is at least fraud wise.
