5 tricks to avoid being scammed this Black Friday

Well friends, Black Friday has arrived one more year and with it come offers that will surprise you, or scams that will surprise you and make you not trust in buying online anymore. With these 5 tips I will help you not to be scammed by these "Sales".

 

Tip number 1

Observe prices for a while since companies tend to raise prices a few days or weeks before and so when Black Friday arrives they can take advantage and get more money even so by lowering those prices that have previously been raised in a huge way and that can make Assembling a computer to pieces will leave your wallet crying.

Tip number 2

Always buy on secure pages and that carry that green lock that we find at the top of the browser screen since we could be accessing a false page where they could scam us without any problem, do not save your card keys by pages that you do not know since it is the easiest trick from which they can scam you and take ALL your money and I think that nobody would like to have this surprise.

Tip number 3

Pay with PayPal. If, as you have heard, we recommend that you pay with this platform since it is very safe and if in any case of scam, if you notify them they cancel the transaction and in many cases they usually return the money. I repeat IN ALMOST ALL CASES.

Tip number 4

You can look at many Chrome extensions (For example) to see the rises and falls in prices that have occurred and compare them with current prices on Black Friday, to see how much they want to scam you. Or if they really meet Black Friday and lower the prices which they have always had.

Tip number 5

Be careful with changes to the "Terms and Conditions of Service," as they can easily rip you off. They might try to add something you don't even realize, and nobody likes that. However, they can't touch the warranty. In Spain, the warranty is a minimum of 2 years for new products, 6 months for second-hand products , and 3 months for repairs.

 

Well, after reading this top (which must have been too short, right?), follow my advice and I don't think you'll be scammed. Be careful and always look for offers, don't be fooled and enjoy your online shopping.
