"FBI Warns on New E-Commerce Fraud"
The FBI is warning the public of a new wave of fraudulent shopping websites, often advertised on social media platforms. The fraudulent shopping websites take orders for a wide range of products and then never deliver. The fraudulent sites tend to offer prices considerably lower than comparable legitimate sites, require payment by online money transfer, and display content and layout copied from other, more traditional e-commerce sites. The public should be careful of websites using the Internet top-level-domains ".club" and ".top". The public should also be cautious of web addresses that have been registered within the last six months.
