How do I know internet websites that require credit cards are not a scam?

My mom is a little paranoid and thinks every website will try to steal money from the bank account through a credit card and lose all our money.

So the question is, how can I tell if a website is a scam or not?
And how can I convince her?

savings account
T asked:


For example, say I have $5000 in my account. I want to save $3000 toward a new car, $200 towards a new TV, $1000 towards a vacation…etc. Then as I add money I can allot it toward one or more of those goals. I am considering up a couple of savings accounts to do this, but it would be easier with just one account.
