Fake Apple-style sites target new phone buyers, firm says
Kaspersky says cybercrime in Pakistan includes fake phone-store pages that copy Apple's look, push a 25% discount, and ask for contact details before payment.
Kaspersky on Wednesday warned Pakistanis about scam sites aimed at buyers of new phones and premium devices.
One English-language fake store claimed a 25% discount, copied Apple's look, and used a 30-minute countdown.
Checkout sought contact and shipping details; payment was said to follow later via a manager call.
Multilingual preorder pages also appeared, some claiming a redirect to Apple's official site that does not happen.
Kaspersky advised buying new devices only through official and reputable stores.
