A Tsunami of Japan Aid on-line fraud !

Sun, 13 Mar 2011 11:19:28 +0000

As the world looks for ways to help the victims of Japan, the darker side of the Internet are now (again) showing it's ugly face.

Within a few days since the Japanese earthquake disaster, on-line criminals are trying to exploit the tragedy. As we have seen it with the Haiti disaster (and other events) a numbers of fraudulent websites are now on-line to lure money out of people ,who wants to donate money to support the victims.

A pet-project of mine, (D.I Project) have just found in excess of 100 newly registered 'Japan aid' web domain names.

While a few may be legitimate organisations, the majority of those websites are from the same criminals, who tried to scam money out from the Haiti disaster.

As always; Those who do receive e-mails soliciting money for Japan, delete them and do support the Red cross, etc. via the official websites.
