While we're all hunting for a bargain, especially with Christmas round the corner, we also need to be alert to scams - there seem to be quite a few around at the moment.
For example, there's an email scam going around pretending to be offering vouchers for Apple iTunes store. Actually, the email infects your computer with malware and fraudsters can then steal your personal information:

There are also PayPal phishing scams:

and that Microsoft scam is going around again too:

Don't get caught out people!
