Many people cite the pitfalls of jostling crowds as one reason to forgo a line at the door in favor of the Internet when shopping for deals after Thanksgiving. But the Northeast Georgia chapter of the Better Business Bureau warns customers to protect themselves from harms specific to the online realm. “Scammers know that Cyber Monday is one of the biggest shopping days of the year and they are looking for people who are shopping online to hack their personal and financial information,” the consumer advocacy group warned in a news release.
