State Attorney General Eric Schneiderman says as you prepare to spend your hard earned dollars beware
of misleading bargains and added fees, compare warranty terms, know the terms
of a layaway plan, check return and refund policies, beware
of restricted gift cards, shop only on secure
Internet connections, do not be tricked by confusingly similar website and domain names, protect yourself by using credit cards, be
wary of too - good - to - be-true contests and prize promotions, and read the fine print.
