If you're planning a spring break getaway or starting to think about that summer vacation, be wary of booking through a secondhand travel site.

Connie Miller with DeWitt Savings Bank indicates booking through one of those websites recently backfired for her; however, she was able to spot a potential issue before it happened again.

Miller encourages simply booking your hotels through the hotel website. Additionally, with the advancements of Artificial Intelligence, companies are seeing their websites being replicated, something Miller says to watch out for.

On the WHOW Morning Show Thursday, Miller told the Hart Media Group of a number of recent scams she has run into and read about. We'll hear more from Miller in the weeks ahead at the Hart Media Group.
