Looking forward to deals and deep discounts on Amazon Prime Day, held July 8-11? You’re not alone. Many retailers, including Walmart, Target, and Kohl’s, will also be offering discounted pricing on those days. Unfortunately, more deals also mean more chances for scammers to take advantage of eager shoppers. BBB reminds consumers to watch out for phishing scams, misleading advertisements, and look alike websites designed to steal your money or personal information.
“Some of the biggest online retailers will be offering deep discounts,” said Mechele Agbayani Mills, President and CEO of BBB Serving Central East Texas. “This also means a big payday for scam artists, so please take steps to protect your information and be cautious about what you click.”
