During the holiday season shopping lines increase and unfortunately so do the scams.

Be on the lookout for yet another scam that can leave you vulnerable this holiday season in the form of an email that's pretending to be from a delivery company, but that could spread a virus to your computer.  When looking at the email look at the sender. If it comes from an Australian Post or other delivery company and they want you to click a link in the email, DON'T.  These types of emails are increasing as we get closer to Christmas, and sad to say many people are still being impacted.

Have you  or someone you know ever been the victim of a holiday scam? Can you tell if an email is fake and intended to take your information?
