Derbyshire Police is holding a 30-minute webinar offering advice on how people can make the most of online shopping, protect their online accounts, avoid scams and make online payments safely.

It's taking place on Wednesday (17 November) at 6.30pm. 

It comes in the run up to Black Friday, Cyber Monday and Christmas, which are always busy times for shoppers. 

Officers will be able to offer simple and non-technical advice to attendees, to help ensure their online sales don't end up costing more than they bargained for.
