Fakin’ Frankie
Shiny storefronts. Rotten honesty.
THREAT TYPE
THREAT LEVEL
Frankie crafts glowing storefronts that mimic trusted brands – then runs off with payment details and gold.
Fake websites imitate legitimate online shops using copied branding, stolen imagery, slight name misspellings, or unbelievably low prices. Their goal is to steal customer payment details, deliver counterfeit goods, or take money without sending anything at all. Frankie’s sites shift often, disappearing once enough victims fall for the ruse.
REWARD
55,000
