The holiday season can be both fun and stressful, and we've learned there are new scams you'll want to watch out for.

More people become victims this month than any other time of the year. Be careful what you click on!

Experts say that one out of every 72 transactions will be a scam during the holidays.

You could be asked to sign in and maybe provide personal information, credit card data, address, phone numbers and personal information and it won’t go to a legitimate source.

Another scam floating around Facebook this time of year is what's known as the "Secret Sister Gift Exchange."

It’s incredibly easy to use social media websites like Facebook and Twitter for scammers using sympathy tactics.

While shopping for your loved ones, be on the lookout for pop-up ads. They can offer free gift cards, but you'll never be able to get it without clicking something else first.

These are just some of the ways scammers looking to steal your money are doing it. Just remember to be careful what you click on, and if it seems too good to be true, it probably is.
