Announcements Made Day Of Sale Supersede All Printed Matter Absolute Living Estate Auction of Jim Kunkle The Monday follow- ing Black Friday, known as Cyber Monday, has become one of the top shopping days of the year. But like so much else in 2022, not all the deals will be just on Cyber Monday. Retail experts predicted many of the online shopping activities and special holiday sales started as early as Halloween and may continue throughout the holiday season. But online shopping – even on Cyber Mon- day – has risks. The Better Business Bureau reminds everyone to be wary of misleading ad- vertisements, lookalike websites and untrust- worthy sellers. The fol- lowing tips will help you shop online this holi- day season, so you can achieve maximum sav- ings while keeping your personal information and hard-earned money se- cure. • Beware of false ad- vertising and phony web- sites. If a company is selling the hottest item of the year at a price that seems too good to be true, it probably is. Watch out for false advertising and keep a close eye on the web address in your browser. Scammers love to create lookalike websites that, at first glance, appear to be- long to a trusted retailer. Make sure websites use the correct spelling of a business name and have legitimate contact infor- mation and customer service numbers. • Shop with trustwor- thy sellers on secure sites only. Be wary of businesses you aren't familiar with. Check their BBB Business Profile on BBB.org, look at the rat- ing, and read customer reviews. In addition, be sure any web page you purchase from is secure. Secure web addresses begin with HTTPS:// and not just HTTP://. Never put personal or credit card information in forms on non-secure web pages. Keep your antivi- rus software up to date. • Make sure you have antivirus software in- stalled on your computer or mobile device, and that it is up to date. This will help you to avoid non-secure websites and pop-up phishing scams, and help keep your per- sonal information safe. • Price check before you buy. Dozens of on- line retailers will claim they have the best price on an item, but their of- fers can be misleading. Do your homework by comparing prices. Re- member that the best deal may not be the real deal. • Take advantage of rewards and loyalty pro- grams. Check your credit card rewards program for special point offers that could add up on Cyber Monday and through- out the holidays. Make purchases using loyalty programs; many major retailers have them. • Use your credit card. It's always best to make online purchases with your credit card. If any shady charges turn up later, you will be able to contest them through your credit card company. Debit cards don't offer this same protection. Never make purchases with online sellers by giving them prepaid debit cards or wiring them money. • Understand return policies. Online store policies may change for Cyber Monday offers. Read the fine print before you buy. Understand the return or exchange policy for the specific item you would like to purchase. Be aware that stores may not allow returns for "final sale" or "closeout" items. Make sure to get gift re- ceipts, so the recipient can return or exchange the item if necessary. • Watch out for phish- ing scams. Busy sched- ules and increased purchases make it easier to miss – and fall victim to – a phishing scam. Look out for unsolicited emails, texts, calls or letters. These messages may claim you have a free gift waiting for you or that there is a problem with a delivery – all you need to do is click on a link or give up your personal in- formation. Avoid phishing scams by ignoring suspi- cious correspondence and calls from unfamiliar phone numbers. Be mindful of online transactions this Christmas and holiday season
