Sun Dec 01 09:40:00 UTC 2024: ## Cyber Monday Deals to Kick Off December 2nd: Be Aware of Scammers and Server Load
**Madrid, Spain** – Online shoppers are gearing up for Cyber Monday, the annual online shopping extravaganza following Thanksgiving. This year, the deals begin at the stroke of midnight on Monday, December 2nd, and will last at least 24 hours, with many retailers extending their sales through Cyber Week until December 8th.
While offering significant discounts on electronics, software, and video games from major retailers like Walmart, Costco, Best Buy, Sam’s Club, Target, and Amazon, consumers are urged to exercise caution. Authorities warn of a surge in online scams targeting Cyber Monday shoppers. To avoid fraud, consumers should only purchase from official store websites and be wary of suspicious deals.
With the expected high volume of online traffic, shoppers should also be prepared for potential website slowdowns and server saturation. Patience is key; avoid repeatedly rebooting your modem if you encounter difficulties accessing deals. Consumers are advised to check individual retailer websites for specific sale durations and details.
