CYBER MONDAY 2011

The following is a public service announcement of The Free Choice E-zine.

Within the last few days we have already experienced Black Friday and Small Business Saturday, a new movement that is only on its second year of trying to become established, whereupon consumers are encouraged to shop only small businesses that day.
And now comes Cyber Monday, with its main focus upon e-commerce and online shopping.
So if your Internet connection is a little slow at times today, there might be an external explanation.

The Free Choice E-zine hopes that everyone takes the necessary precautions when online.
01. Only visit established/trusted websites.
02. When giving out personal information like credit card numbers, make sure the web address either starts with HTTPS, the Internet designation that you ARE on a secured portion of the web, or that there is an icon of a lock somewhere in the address bar.
DO NOT TAKE THE WEBSITE'S WORD ALONE THAT THE SITE IS SECURE!

Otherwise, happy shopping everyone!
