West Virginia Attorney General Patrick Morrisey is reminding those in the Eastern Panhandle and all across West Virginia to be careful when shopping this holiday season. Morrisey says this is the time of year when the scammers come out to play, so it's important for shoppers to take extra precautions. He encourages those who shop online to make sure the website is reputable. He also encourages people to not provide their credit card information to people you don't know and to not donate to charities without ensuring they are legitimate.
