Scam Site Warning: Domino's Spin Club

When I google Domino's I get an ad that looks legit.. but clicks through to https://dominos.au-spin.club/?s1=1025406a4253a058393aeb419ed…

Here's what the ad looks like:

So dodgy. I can't imagine how many people would get scammed from this.

      you don't Google things?

      • Not things I know exist. And I definitely don't use Google search or click ads, EVER.

        • i'm generally pretty trusting of search results and ads (make em pay…) but I am pretty shocked that this slipped through.

            @Niko123456: Anyone can buy and run ads on Google Search for any set of keywords. All they need to do is pick any keyword (like Domino's or Pizza Hut) and pay for it to be on top of the results page.

            These phishing pages trick users into giving up confidential information such as their login credentials, account details, and Personal Identifiable Information (PII). You might spin the wheel and it'll ask you some personal info and phone number to give you the prize, but you'll receive nothing.

            This sort of malvertising campaign is not new, although it has gradually worsened over time. Thanks Google.

            • @scrimshaw: fixed it: "and pay for it with a fake credit card to be on top of the results page."

    Brand impersonation is against Google's own advertising guidelines. If you see those kinds of ads, report them
