· There is a sense of urgency from the e-mail. Most organizations will call you or send you formal mail if something is urgent.

It’s that time of the year when you can find some very good deals, whether it’s in-store or online. As per stats from the International Trade Administration, there were 27 million online shoppers in Canada in 2022, accounting for 75%of the Canadian population.

Avoid Public Shopping
It’s tempting to purchase an item at a free hotspot if you see great deal that’s about to expire. A hotpot at your local café or restaurant are places where hackers like to lurk as the public networks are not secured.
