Shoppers looking to save money on Black Friday deals have been warned that they could be targeted by scammers.
Scammers could go as far as to make spoof websites designed to trick customers into handing over personal and financial details, said fraud prevention service Cifas. These websites can often look legitimate and easily trick shoppers who aren't being cautious, but there are often some hints as to whether a shopping site is legitimate or not.
Cifas urges shoppers to look out for misspelt brand names as well as basic-looking font and colour schemes. Phishing campaigns for sale deals may also encourage consumers to click on unsafe links.
