Just received this from a vendor, but it's still good advice regardless of the source:
Black Friday and Cyber Monday are the busiest online shopping days and the bad guys are out to get rich with your money. After all, ‘tis the season for scams and phishing.
So how do I stay safe this holiday season?

@0x56 good advice
* Always type in the address or use bookmarks to navigate to shopping sites.
* Never click on links in emails with special offers.
* Watch out for alerts via email or texts from FedEx, UPS, or the US mail asking for personal information.
* Don’t download fake mobile apps that promise big savings.
* Be wary of online discount coupons. Remember to only use credit cards online, never debit cards.
