According to Hoffman (1999) and Jarvenpaa (2000), there is overwhelming evidence that trust in the online environment is an important element of electronic commerce (EC)relationships. According to Mayer (1995) and McKnight (2002), the overall trust in using E-commerce transaction is influenced by consumer’s perception of risk to the Ecommerce transaction due the nature of supporting infrastructure. Usually, the consumer’s perception of risk caused by their intention toward to perceived privacy, perceived security and company reputation. Despite the fears some consumers have about making online purchases, online purchasing behavior continues to grow in volume, and more and more people seem to be taking the plunge and buying online (Green, 2002; Horrigan, 2002). As the proportion of people refuse to buy online continue to shrink, concern about privacy, trust, security maybe overshadowed by other concerns. Ahuja et al.
