Fox News: Spot fake online stores, avoid Facebook subscription scams
Cybercriminals are increasingly using sophisticated subscription scams to trick consumers into providing sensitive information, particularly credit card details. Recent research has identified over 200 fraudulent websites that mimic legitimate online stores, often promoted through Facebook ads.

Additionally, using strong antivirus software and secure payment methods can help safeguard personal information. The ongoing prevalence of these scams highlights the need for better oversight on platforms like Facebook to prevent fraudulent ads from reaching users.
