The Better Business Bureau is reminding consumers to “be careful” when shopping online over the holiday season.

BBB regional director Pamela Hernandez is advising folks people to take their time, and do some research before making online purchases.

Shoppers should, according to Hernandez, be extremely cautious when clicking on ads from social media sites, and social media based shops like the “TikTok Shop”. She says clicking on these ads could lead to fake, scammer-ridden websites.
