(Graphic: Business Wire)\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-size:85%\">Consumers ages 45-54 would most risk their identity for a good Cyber Monday deal, according to an Experian survey. (Graphic: Business Wire)<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>\nIn fact, 57 percent feel there\u2019s a greater risk this year of identity theft because of COVID-19 while 18 percent of survey respondents have already been affected by a coronavirus-related scam. The number of consumers surveyed who have been victims during past holiday shopping seasons jumped to 24 percent from 12 percent in 2019, which also may be why consumers are concerned.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\u201cThe holidays are always a ripe period for cybercriminals with increased online traffic occurring,\u201d said Experian Vice President of Consumer Protection Michael Bruemmer. \u201cBut this year is even more attractive for hackers so consumers need to make sure they are following several good security practices to keep their information and financial accounts safe. Retailers should also be very vigilant so that shoppers have a positive customer experience.\u201d\n<\/p>\n<p><b>Consumers can improve their safety habits<\/b><\/p>\n<p>\nEven though they are concerned about identity theft, more than a quarter (28%) of survey respondents said they would risk being a victim for a good Cyber Monday deal, up from 19 percent in 2019.\n<\/p>\n<p>\nLess than half of those surveyed (49%) shop on protected internet connections and check if the websites are secure (47%). However, 33 percent will pay for purchases online with a credit card dedicated specifically for this purpose, which is up 7 percent from 2019.\n<\/p>\n<p><b>Five tips for a safer digital experience<\/b><\/p>\n<ol class=\"bwlistdecimal\">\n<li><b>Don\u2019t use public WiFi:<\/b> Public networks make it easier for hackers to intercept your data and steal your sensitive information. If you&#8217;re going to enter your credit card information or other sensitive data on your phone or computer, do it at home on your own private network, or use a secure virtual private network (VPN) connection.\n<\/li>\n<li><b>Consider identity theft monitoring:<\/b> A product like Experian <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/cts.businesswire.com\/ct\/CT?id=smartlink&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.experian.com%2Fconsumer-products%2Fidentity-theft-and-credit-protection.html&amp;esheet=52332935&amp;newsitemid=20201120005168&amp;lan=en-US&amp;anchor=IdentityWorks&amp;index=1&amp;md5=d8de0abd1ddc5dfba846db824c18d438\">IdentityWorks<\/a> will help you monitor your financial accounts and credit report to identify possible fraud such as a credit card account opened in your name.\n<\/li>\n<li><b>Change passwords:<\/b> Use a password manager to create strong passwords for online accounts, and change them regularly.\n<\/li>\n<li><b>Use secure websites:<\/b> Only shop on websites you are familiar with and have the URL that starts with &#8220;https&#8221; rather than \u201chttp.\u201d Https indicates the website has a secured connection, which means your connection to that website is much harder to hack.\n<\/li>\n<li><b>Don\u2019t use a debit card<\/b>: Your credit card offers much more protection for online purchases. If fraud occurs, the money is not gone from your checking account and you can file a claim with your card issuer.\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>\nFor additional survey data, visit <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/cts.businesswire.com\/ct\/CT?id=smartlink&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.experian.com%2Fblogs%2Fask-experian%2Fsurvey-some-consumers-would-risk-identity-theft-for-an-online-holiday-deal%2F&amp;esheet=52332935&amp;newsitemid=20201120005168&amp;lan=en-US&amp;anchor=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.experian.com%2Fblogs%2Fask-experian%2Fsurvey-some-consumers-would-risk-identity-theft-for-an-online-holiday-deal%2F&amp;index=2&amp;md5=cef7d112d4a32284cfc5c5129f1dac6b\">https:\/\/www.experian.com\/blogs\/ask-experian\/survey-some-consumers-would-risk-identity-theft-for-an-online-holiday-deal\/<\/a>.
