Beware, online shoppers! Cybercriminals have registered over 100,000 look-alike domains that resemble popular retail websites

November 20, 2019 by Rami Saba Leave a Comment

Cybercriminals have registered over 100,000 look-alike domains that mimic popular retail websites.  The fakes sites use valid TLS certificates to make them appear safe and trusted.  The number of fake sites has doubled since 2018 and are created to target 20 retailers in the U.S., U.K., Germany, France and Australia.  One of the U.S. retailers has over 49,500 look-alike domains targeting it alone.  Retailers and customers should be vigilant in protecting themselves.
