Versuchen GOLD - Frei
Dodge seasonal scams
Sunday Express
|December 12, 2021
CHRISTMAS is traditionally a time for giving, unless you are a fraudster, in which case it is peak season for scamming unsuspecting victims instead.
Britons are expected to spend a staggering £36billion online this year according to Statista, but some of this money could end up in the wrong hands if you are not careful.
Two thirds of us take more risks when caught up in the last-minute panic-buying frenzy just before Christmas, according to Lloyds Bank, often visiting dubious websites by little-known retailers that we have never visited before.
This year fraudsters are playing on fears of supply shortages to dupe shoppers seeking must-have Christmas gifts, with purchase scams up 10 per cent and the average loss almost £200.
