There's advice on scams this weekend for Surrey and East Hampshire folks thinking about booking holidays.

Today is known as 'Sunshine Saturday' - which according to travel experts is the busiest day of the year for holiday bookings.

Surrey-based Tim Johnson from the Civil Aviation Authority has this advice:

"Don't click links that you get on your phone or email, go to the original travel company's website.

"Sometimes scammers will change a .co.uk to a .org, so watch out for that.

"Research the company you're booking with.

"Also, if it seems too good to be true, it probably is."
