Attackers are increasing their efforts to target businesses and individuals leading into the holiday period. Here are some quick tips to help keep you safe when purchasing online.

1. Don’t click on blue links in text messages
2. Stop. Don't rush to act. Scammers will often put time limits on offers so people feel they have to act quickly or they’ll miss out.
3. Think. Ask yourself could the website or sale item be fake? Search for independent reviews or contact the retailer using contact information you source independently, so you can verify the deal is real.
4. Protect. Act quickly if something feels wrong. Contact your bank immediately if you think you have lost money to a scammer.

As sales become available over Black Friday and Cyber Monday, remember to stay alert and protect yourself from potential scams.

Cybercriminals are ramping up their activities, and they’re looking to exploit shoppers and businesses trading during this time.

Here are some tips to keep your information safe:

1. Shop Securely: Only use trusted websites. Look for “https://” in the URL and a padlock icon before entering any personal or payment details.
2. Beware of Phishing Scams: Don’t click on suspicious links in emails or messages. Scammers often impersonate popular retailers to steal your information.
3. Use Strong Passwords: Protect your accounts with complex passwords and change them regularly. Consider enabling two-factor authentication for extra security.
4. Monitor Your Accounts: Keep an eye on your bank statements and online accounts for any unusual activity.
5. Businesses: Should implement MFA for their websites, email and payment processors.
