If you get a “delivery issue” text/email, don’t click. Open the retailer or carrier site/app directly to check tracking. #Phishing #ScamPrevention
If a store asks for payment by gift card, wire transfer, or crypto, treat it as a stop sign. #ScamPrevention
A legit store should have a real address, clear contact options, and consistent spelling. Sloppy pages are a warning sign. #ScamPrevention
Look closely at the web address in the checkout page. Fake stores often use misspellings or extra words that mimic real brands. #ScamPrevention
Avoid paying by bank transfer, wire, or gift cards for online orders. Those are hard to reverse if something goes wrong. #ScamPrevention
Watch for fake storefront clues: a brand-new domain name, mismatched logo quality, and a checkout page that looks different from the rest of the site. #ScamPrevention
A deal that’s far below every other retailer is a reason to slow down. Search the store name plus “reviews” and “scam” before buying. #ScamPrevention
If a store’s site has lots of spelling errors, odd formatting, and every item is “on sale,” pause and search the company name plus “reviews” and “scam.” #ScamPrevention
Too-good pricing plus a brand-new store name is a classic combo. Check for a physical address, clear support info, and consistent policies before ordering. #ScamPrevention
Subscription traps: watch for “free trial” add-ons in the cart. Remove extras you didn’t choose, especially on discount checkout pages. #ScamPrevention
If a deal requires paying with gift cards, crypto, or wire transfer, treat it as a warning sign. Legit stores don’t require those methods. #ScamPrevention
If you shop online: If a deal requires paying by gift card, wire transfer, or crypto, treat it as a warning sign. Legit stores rarely require irreversible payments. #ScamPrevention
A quick fake-store check: see if the site has a real street address, a working phone number, and consistent branding across pages. Copy-paste policies are a red flag. #ScamPrevention
A fake store often has a real-looking homepage but weak details: no physical address, generic “Contact us,” and policies copied from other sites. Check those pages first. #ScamPrevention
For big-ticket buys, take 2 minutes to check the seller’s domain age and reviews across multiple sources. New domain + too-cheap price is a common scam combo. #ScamPrevention
Watch for “subscription by default” add-ons at checkout (warranties, memberships, bundles). If the total changes right before you pay, scroll back and remove extras. #OnlineShopping #ScamPrevention
A fast fake-store tell: the contact page has no real address, no phone, or the address doesn’t match the business name when you search it. If support info feels copied, move on. #ScamPrevention
Watch for “too good to be true” bundles. Scammers often pair a popular item with random accessories to make the listing look legitimate. #ScamPrevention #DealHunting
A quick fake-store check: look for a physical address, clear contact info, and consistent spelling across pages. Copy-paste product descriptions full of errors can be a red flag. #ScamPrevention #OnlineShopping
Marketplace safety: check how long the seller account has existed and scan recent feedback for patterns like “item never arrived.” New accounts with big discounts deserve extra caution. #Marketplace #ScamPrevention

Deal tip: If a deal requires paying by gift card, wire, or crypto, skip it. Those payment methods are hard to recover when things go wrong. #ScamPrevention
Payment tip: Watch for fake stores by checking for mismatched brand names in the URL, vague contact info, and a site full of identical “50–80% off” banners. Slow down and verify. #ScamPrevention
Tiny habit that helps: If a deal requires paying by gift card, wire, or crypto, treat it as a red flag. Legit retailers don’t need irreversible payment methods. #ScamPrevention
Delivery-issue texts are a big phishing trick. If a message asks for a fee or “address confirmation,” don’t tap it—check your order status directly in your account. #Phishing #ScamPrevention
