How do I avoid falling for deceptive online ads?

1. Research thoroughly about any advertised product or service before making a purchase.
2. Be cautious of any deals that sound too good to be true.
3. Be wary of sponsored links and email offers, as these are often obscured advertisements.
4. Inspect certifications that an online seller may have on their website or advertisement.
5. Make sure the advertisement’s vendors and website have secure connections and privacy policies.
6. Analyze customer reviews before parting with your money.
