Fraudsters are keen to get your card details and might try and lure you to their website with the promise of a sale or out of stock items

Check the full URL of the websites you visit before entering any of your details https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🔍" title="Nach links zeigende Lupe" aria-label="Emoji: Nach links zeigende Lupe"> https://monzo.com/blog/behind-the-scenes-of-a-phishing-scam/">https://monzo.com/blog/behi...
Social media https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="📸" title="Kamera mit Blitz" aria-label="Emoji: Kamera mit Blitz">

If you come across extremely cheap items on social media be aware because the person behind that account could be a scammer!

Be extremely careful, especially if you& #39;re asked to pay by bank transfer.
