The holiday deals are already rolling in, but not every offer you see online is the real deal.
Fraud criminals often create websites that look professional and offer big discounts on popular items. But after you pay for the item, the product you receive might be of poor quality, not what was advertised, or it never arrives at all.
Be cautious of any online offer that’s priced way below what other retailers are charging. The safest way to shop is by using trusted retailers’ apps or typing their website directly into your browser — not by clicking links from texts, emails, or ads.
