With Christmas right around the corner, we're being warned to be vigilant with online scams. A worldwide study by cyber security brand Norton shows almost a quarter of New Zealanders take more risks when online shopping during the holiday season. The study says inflation's somewhat to blame, as scammers are luring people in with promises of deals too good to be true. Norton Managing Director Mark Gorrie told Kate Hawkesby it's been the perfect season for scammers. He says an increase in online shopping during the pandemic caused more scams to pop up, and the holiday season can mean people let their guards down in search for gifts.
