Watch Out for Payment Scams

As we enter the busiest period of the year for shopping, criminals will be getting busier.

Purchase scams are when fake or non-existent items are advertised for sale.

These goods often appear on auction sites or social media such as Facebook or Instagram , with images (and even reviews) copied from genuine sellers to convince you that they're a proper retailer.

Criminals may also use cloned websites, with small changes to the URL, to trick you into thinking that you're buying from a genuine retailer.

How to spot Payment Scams

If you see products and services heavily discounted from their retail price, then be on guard!

If you’re asked to pay by bank transfer instead of an online payment or card transaction, that's also a red flag

Scammers will often forge receipts and invoices. Always read these carefully and look for tell-tale signs of forgery. These include spelling errors, poor grammar, and unusual contact details — such as the seller’s address and email.

Be Careful
