The newspaper link allows you to access a digital copy of your current family announcement be it Birth Death/Funeral or Marriage for most Australian newspapers.
Scroll down the left hand column to Announcements or Deaths enter the name you are looking for and when the entry is visible select and copy paste into a Word document and save in your family file. It is also worthwhile saving the paper copy as a record.

You can search this index for a fee or use our library to get the Certificate Number.

You can order online and pay and have the record saved on your computer for family history use within minutes.

Concerned about using your Card online - buy a Prepaid Visa card with a fixed amount from the Supermarket or Post Office, when its used get another (some are reloadable) - this limits the amount that can be spent on the card and does not compromise you own personal accounts. There is a cost involved but this may be worth the peace of mind.
