BBB Tip: The naughty list — BBB’s 12 scams of Christmas
OA Online
With 2023 quickly winding down, Better Business Bureau has compiled our naughty list of the top 12 scams of Christmas. When shopping or donating this holiday season, watch out for schemes trying to swipe your cash or steal your personal information.
You can avoid most scams on this list by taking a few simple precautions. Always exercise caution with social media ads promoting discounted items, holiday events, job opportunities, donation requests, and direct messages from strangers. If someone asks you to make a payment or donation by wire transfer, through a third party, or by prepaid debit or gift card, treat it as a red flag.
