Black Friday is one of the biggest online shopping events of the year — and it also brings a sharp rise in digital scams. Fake websites, cloned retailers, and fraudulent payment portals become far more common during this period.
COMRiC encourages all consumers to take extra care before making a purchase. The YIMA platform from SAFPS (Southern African Fraud Prevention Service) offers a free and easy website scanner that checks whether an online store is safe, credible, and secure. It gives you clear warnings about suspicious activity or vulnerabilities so you can avoid costly mistakes.
Before you click buy, scan the site — and protect yourself.
