Alabama District Attorneys Association: Holiday Scams

During the holiday season, we usually see an increase in scams!

Don't say oh, fudge! Be aware!

Pay With Gift Card Scams

In the rush of holiday shopping online, hit the pause button if you are asked to pay with an Amazon or iTunes gift card or to wire money. This could be a sign that the website you are on is fake. Scammers prefer to take your cash this way because it's nearly impossible for you to get it back.
