NEW YORK (PIX11) -- Mother's Day is just around the corner, but the Better Business Bureau is warning consumers to be wary of scams when buying gifts – especially last-minute items like flowers and jewelry.
“Scammers anticipate that people will look for last-minute Mother’s Day gifts online, and they can try to trick buyers with phony deals. Before you buy, check the legitimacy and reliability of the business,” said Claire Rosenzweig, President & CEO of the BBB Serving Metropolitan New York.
