Cyber Monday is a great day to get deals on line, but it's also a banner day for hackers and identity thieves to rob you blind.

Vulcan Cyber security expert David Swan says pay particular attention to the websites you're on as there's one easy way to tell if it's legit or not.

"When you go to a website, make sure that there aren't any extra letters or characters in the address for the site you're going to. And sometimes there's a different country code in there. That tells you it's distracting you, it's moving you to a different site, and you really don't want to go there."

Swan says the bad guys do their best to make their sites look just like one's you're used to and think you can trust.
