Fake shopping sites and too-good deals
Huge discounts on a site you've never heard of are a red flag.
Fake online stores advertise popular products at very low prices, take payment, and never deliver, or send something worthless.
Red flags
- Prices far below everywhere else
- A new website with no contact address or phone number
- Payment only by wire, payment app, crypto or gift card
- Social media ads for a store you can't find elsewhere
Protect yourself
- Search the store name with "scam" or "reviews"
- Pay with a credit card, which gives you dispute rights
- Report fake sites at ReportFraud.ftc.gov
