The anti-virus provider has spotted a regular spam promotion luring individuals to fake retail websites with provides of huge discounts and appealing imagery. Looking to refresh their e-mail target databases, spammers have actually crafted email topics like “2014 Black Friday UGG top ten Gifts On Vault!” and “Pre-Christmas And Ebony Friday Special present: UGG Timeless Boots Hot purchase and 40% off every thing.”

As soon as a person clicks in any link when you look at the unrequested email, he's redirected to an authentic-looking site that are selling UGG items at reduced prices. The pages consist of logos of payment providers and reputable protection providers to simulate credibility and gain the user’s confidence.
