It’s Cyber Monday and the European Consumer Centre is advising online shoppers to buy from reputable websites only. It says dubious websites are plentiful at this time of the year aimed at misleading the public into paying for goods which are either sub-standard or may never arrive by post. Dr. Cyril Sullivan of the European Consumer Centre in Dublin says online purchasing with established brands is always safer in the end.
