(Undated) – Today is “Cyber Monday,” the day for finding deals online. The National Retail Federation estimates 62.8% of shoppers plan to do at least part of their shopping online today. Illinois Attorney General, Kwame Raoul, is warning residents to exercise caution when shopping online this Cyber Monday. He is urging shoppers to do research before taking advantage of “buy now, pay later” offers or accepting offers of loans. He also recommends avoiding fake websites, being careful when clicking on links that were sent to your phone or email from suspicious or unfamiliar sources and never giving out private information.
