Before the introduction of the internet and electronic commerce, transactions were carried out face to face and in juxtaposition, and in some instances by postal services. Nevertheless, the internet has come up a faster, and in some occasions more resourceful way of carrying out business, now businesses can offer their products and services to individuals in locations which they would hitherto have been unable to. Now, an individual can buy goods from different locations with just a touch of a button. This is an illustration of the enormous advantages which online businesses have brought to the business world. In those circumstance consumers cannot be left at the mercy of the unfaithful business men who would take advantage of innocent consumer by delivering to them counterfeit and substandard goods. A look at law that protect consumer in e-commerce is inevitable.
