5 Essential Tips for Smart and Secure Shopping
Because cyber scams spike during high-profile retail events, security and price verification are paramount. Experts recommend the following strategies:
- 1. Compare Across Platforms: Check the price of an item at multiple retailers before purchasing to ensure the discount is genuine and the base price was not artificially inflated right before the sale.
- 2. Use Price-Tracking Extensions: Browser extensions like Keepa show the long-term price history of products (especially on Amazon), making it easy to see if a deal is truly at its lowest point.
- 3. Monitor Official Social Media Accounts: Brands frequently release high-value, limited-time coupon codes exclusively on their official Instagram or X (formerly Twitter) profiles.
- 4. Verify URL Security: Before entering any personal or financial data, ensure the website address begins with
https://and displays a closed padlock icon next to the URL. - 5. Avoid Phishing Links: Do not click on unsolicited promotional links received via WhatsApp, SMS, or email. Cybercriminals heavily exploit the Hot Sale season to deploy phishing schemes aimed at stealing banking credentials.
