  • If you entered your payment information on a website or replied to an email you think might be malicious, immediately contact your financial institutions because Lightinthebox does not collect your payment information as stated in the Privacy Policy.
  • Do not share your Account password with a third party.

Here are some ways to protect your system, devices, and wireless network in furtherance to create a safer environment for your account:

  • Install anti-virus or anti-malware software. Keep security software in a real-time state by installing updates and patches as soon as they're available. When you complete an installation of new software, remind yourself of running a full scan of your computer.
  • Never reply to the phishing website. If you want to contact us, you may use our inbox function to connect us.
  • Install the software you need from verified or official sources. Disregard urgent pop-ups by virtue of telling you that your computer or device might be infected and further request you to click the link or provide additional personal information.
  • Don't leave your devices unlocked in an insecure environment.
  • Choose to use manually to WiFi instead of making connect to WiFi automatically.
