Got a minute, here are some ways you can protect your credit card data, when shopping online on Cyber Monday.
Consider using a mobile payment system when buying on your phone.

Free [UNKNOWN] SudoPay can generate a number and set a dollar amount for you to use for online shopping.

And finally, make sure to use a unique username and password for each site you buy from and never save your credit card details on a merchant's website.
