The following appeared in a posting by Kim Komando, a wonderful tech person who has our best interests at heart:
Amazon’s fall Prime Big Deal Days sale is next week on Oct. 8 and Oct. 9. The most important thing you need to know is that scammers are hard at work creating lookalike sites and emails to trick you while you’ve got your credit card out. As we near the holiday season, the scammers will be ramping up. Gone are the days of crappy rip-offs. Today’s crooks create fake websites that look just like the ones they’re imitating. Make sure that you are ordering through the “real” Amazon.com. Be careful of “too good to be true” pricing.
