			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This is pretty much <strong>the best online pharmacy</strong> I have been working with. Always inovative, always aiming to make thing easier and better, this is the generic online pharmacy you want to deal with. So, let's take each <a href="http://blog.pharmedicine.com/7">security checkup</a> and see how it turns out. This review is mostly related to your financial safety. You will need to try the products yourself and ... for ED products ... <a href="/exit/generic-pharmacy.net/Generic-Packs.html">give the TRIAL PACKS a try</a>. See what works best for you.<br />
<span id="more-8"></span></p>
<h2>Generic-Pharmacy.net Domain Branding</h2>
<p>The domain name for http://www.<strong>generic-pharmacy.net</strong>/ is <strong>generic-pharmacy.net</strong>. As you see it's targeted to their business. It's not a site someone bought to create a cash and go online pharmacy. It's a real branded business with a site bought for this very purpose.</p>
<h2>Generic-Pharmacy.net Domain Age</h2>
<p>We go over to <a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.internic.net/whois.html" target="_blank">INTERNIC</a> and enter the domain name: <strong>generic-pharmacy.net</strong> and click <strong>Submit</strong>. This query is performed on <em>Wed, 01 Apr 2009 18:42:29 UTC</em>. <strong>Domain Name</strong>: GENERIC-PHARMACY.NET <strong>Creation Date</strong>: 17-jul-<em><strong>2003</strong> </em><strong>Expiration Date</strong>: 17-jul-<em><strong>2016</strong></em> <em></em>As you can see it's registered in <strong>2003</strong> (<em>about 6 years old which is <span style="text-decoration: line-through;">impossible</span> huge for any scam online pharmacy</em>). These guys also mean business as the domain is registered all the way to <strong>2016</strong>. Which is another feature of a serious site. Sites registered for a shorter interval don't mean real business. Registration for so many years ahead requires an investment which is a feature of real online pharmacies.</p>
<h2>Generic-Pharmacy.net Site Purpose Coherency</h2>
<p>As I said in branding a site has to handle the same kind of business over time. If a site used to be a gamers forum and becomes an online pharmacy: <strong>STAY AWAY</strong> ... <em>if you care for your money</em>. Let's see <a rel="nofollow" href="http://web.archive.org/web/*/http://www.generic-pharmacy.net/">generic-pharmacy.net over time</a>.</p>
<h2>Generic-Pharmacy.net Supports HTTPS</h2>
<p>The <a href="/exit/generic-pharmacy.net/qorder.html">order form</a> uses the <strong>HTTPS protocol</strong>. As I stated before, <a href="http://blog.pharmedicine.com/posts/never-buy-from-a-non-https-online-pharmacy/">HTTP is of utmost importance</a></p>
<p>.</p>
<h2>Generic-Pharmacy.net Offers Phone Support</h2>
<p>I won't list the phone numbers on this site but on <a rel="nofollow" href="/exit/generic-pharmacy.net/">generic-pharmacy.net</a> you can see them in the header. But, as always, I advise against phone orders and handing over your CC details by phone to anyone. But I am a bit paranoid.</p>
<h2>Generic-Pharmacy.net Accepts Master Card Credit Cards</h2>
<p>This is very important. Many use Master Cards and most online pharmacies accept Visa Credit Cards. Few take MCs and generic-pharmacy.net is one of them.</p>
<blockquote><p>As a conclusion we advise you to <a rel="nofollow" href="/exit/generic-pharmacy.net/qorder.html">try this online pharmacy</a> with confidence. Out of all the online pharmacies we reviewed and condone, this one converts best. <strong>Cusomers appreciated it</strong> and that has to count for something.</p></blockquote>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>There is no way to make sure the product you get is as effective as a brand product but there are a few hints that can clearly tell you if this online pharmacy is for real or just wants to drain your credit card. There are a lot of kids involved in CC cloning business and they often use such fronts.<br />
<span id="more-7"></span></p>
<h2>This is how they scam you:</h2>
<ol>
<li>You got to a fake pharmacy</li>
<li>You order with your Credit Card</li>
<li>They order the products themselves on your behalf from a REAL ONLINE PHARMACY</li>
<li>You actually get what you ordered ... but from someone else</li>
<li>They sell your Credit Card informations to people from a very Eastern country</li>
<li>They clone your Credit Card and wipe it leaving your wondering what you did wrong</li>
</ol>
<p>Be checking a few things about the website you are about to buy from, you can pretty much tell if an online pharmacy is out to get you. This know-how is vital especially in today's economic turmoil where wasting money is not a smart thing to do.</p>
<h2>The things to check</h2>
<ol>
<li><strong>Online pharmacy domain name has to be branded</strong><br />
Domain name stands between http[s]://<strong>...</strong>/. Don't even click anything that looks like this http://forum .../user.php?id=...! Real pharmacies have a name, something that looks like a brand-name or Online Pharmacy related domain name.</li>
<li><strong>Online pharmacy website has to be old</strong><br />
Anything less then a year old is out of question. The older the better. It's a tough business and fake pharmacies close down fast, but they get to scam a bunch in the process.</li>
<li><strong>Online pharmacy website should have always been an online pharmacy</strong><br />
One can buy a gaming site and turn it into an online pharmacy, scam a bunch of people and then vanish. I'll show you how to verify what the site was before, in the past.</li>
<li><strong>Online pharmacy has to offer HTTPS</strong><br />
https:// is a secure communication protocol and data is encrypted. Plain text data is turned into mumble jumble that can only de decoded by the sender and the receiver. The internet is built in such way that, data does not get from computer A to B directly. It often needs to go through many others as the world wide web is indeed a web! Encrypted data ensures online the online pharmacy you buy from gets your credit card number.</li>
<li><strong>They must offer a phone number</strong><br />
Even if you will never use it. Even if you call for directions don't place orders on the phone. Don't let others, even their employees, know your Credit Card number. Less chances for problems.</li>
</ol>
<h2>Why follow Pharmedicine advice?</h2>
<p>The online pharmacies we refer have been in business for quite a while and are trustworthy. Each has its stronger and weaker points (<em>in terms of delivery and CC acceptance</em>) but they are safe and their age is there to prove it. This site is run by several internet experts and we get a small commission for each sale. Those who scam you scam us too ... that's why we keep an eye out so you don't have to!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>In your web browser (the software you use to visit pages) there is an address bar that now start with something like <strong>http://blog.pharmedicine.com/</strong>. As you can see this is HTTP and not HTTPS. HTTPS is HTTP secure and works differently. Data is sent encrypted and can't be intercepted by prying eyes out for your credit card number.<br />
<span id="more-5"></span></p>
<h2>A simple example to understand</h2>
<p>Let's say you have a long pipe and you use it to talk to a friend. On its way, the pipe crosses several other neighbours' apartaments. When you shout a message to your friend, <strong>your privacy is at risk</strong>. Any of those on the pipe's path can patch into your pipe and listen to you. This is HTTP. Data can be interecepted and <strong>no sensitive data should be sent over it</strong>.</p>
<p>But what if you and your friend had a special language, a code to communicate. The others could try to listen but they would not understand what you are saying. This is HTTPS. You personal information and credit card information travel safely to the online pharmacy processing your payment. When all is said and done only you and the online pharmacy know your informations and they <strong>can't be intercepted and translated</strong> by others.</p>
<h2>Never buy from a non-https online pharmacy</h2>
<p>When you enter your Credit Card information, <strong>look at the address bar</strong>. If the browser address does not start with <strong>https://</strong> don't complete the order. Find another online pharmacy that can provide the secure communication protocol. Adding HTTPS to a site costs a bit and very few scammers will pay the extra money. If they do, each security certificate used in HTTPS is granted to someone. And this way, you know who you're dealing with.</p>
<h2>Does HTTPS mean I'm safe?</h2>
<p>Not really. But it means the online pharmacy you are dealing with <strong>can't point fingers</strong> and say your Credit-Card informations were stolen/intercepted by others. If you enter your CC informations in a non-secure payment form you are on your own. It's <strong>your fault</strong> for not knowing better. But an HTTPS address guarantees you that, if you are scammed and unapproved amounts are taken from your credit card, it's those you bought from and not anyone else.</p>
<blockquote><p>All the online pharmacies mentioned on this site employ the HTTPS communication protocol when processing payments.</p></blockquote>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Buying prescription drugs online is easy but, in this apparently easy activity lie dangerous situations that can seriously affect your finances. There are safe and unsafe online pharmacies.The safe ones provide a real service that is enjoyed by prescription drugs buyers all around the world.</p>
<p>The scammers, in best case scenario will not send the products but in worst case scenario will drain your credit card. It's a good thing to be able to asses on first sight the level of security provided by an online pharmacy paying attention to some important details. This can save you a lot. I certainly would not like my credit card emptied by a fake online pharmacies leaving me conned and with little chances to get the money back.<br />
<span id="more-3"></span></p>
<h2>We'll discuss safety!</h2>
<p>This is what this blog will cover. Online pharmacies and online pharmacy shopping safety! How to tell if it's worth moving forward with your order or just trying another provider. I'll try to teach in non-technical terms some technical aspects of online shopping security, especially targeted to the online pharmaceutical ecommerce  industry.</p>
<p>I don't think I'll turn you into an expert but you will certainly know more than the Average Joe internet shopper and your chances to get scammed will decrease exponentially.</p>
<h2>Who publishes on this site?</h2>
<p>Do read the <strong>About</strong> page but in a nutshell I breathe internet, safety, programming and such web and software related activities. I'm what most call a geek even if I really don't enjoy that label. I'm an expert. And ... I'm also an ocasional online-pharmacy customer that never got scammed.</p>
<blockquote><p>Kind regards and stick around. I'll be worth it!</p></blockquote>
