Consumer protection agency offers tips to avoid e-commerce fraud in Egypt

Consumer protection warns of significant e-commerce fraud, with 35,000 complaints last year. The Consumer Protection Agency advises buying only from official, legally registered platforms in Egypt to ensure consumer rights and avoid scams from unknown social media pages. Consumers are urged to verify product sources, avoid linking payment cards to unknown sites, and be wary of unrealistic offers, especially for medical or weight-loss products.
