Year-end shopping is in full swing, and while the deals are tempting, scammers are active too. Fake websites, phishing messages, and urgent payment requests tend to rise during this period.
If you come across an offer that asks for a direct PayNow transfer for a big discount, it’s worth pausing.
If you receive a message asking you to pay a small delivery fee through a suspicious link, do not click on it. And if a deal feels rushed, unusually cheap, or overly urgent, take a moment to slow down and check before proceeding.
Here’s a simple anti-scam checklist to keep in mind:
✅ Think. Does this deal seem suspicious?
✅ Check. Is the seller and link legitimate?
✅ Protect. Always pay through official platforms and avoid direct transfers.
