Scamming - Fraud
The website or online store Popsways at www.popsways.com, which claims to sell luxury watches, is fraudulent. Online users are advised to stay away from the fraudulent website, and those who have shopped from it, run the risk of their personal, credit card and other payment processing information getting stolen by cyber-criminals and used fraudulently. They also run the risk of receiving counterfeit goods, or poor quality goods that look nothing like what was advertised. Therefore, we do not recommend purchasing or visiting popsways.com.
The cybercriminals behind the fake website will use another website and change the name once the current website has been taken down. Therefore, only shop on popular and reputable websites. And, for online users who have already used their credit cards on the website, are asked to contact their banks for help. They should let their banks know that they have unknowingly used their credit cards on an untrustworthy website.

I was on the website and almost placed an order. when I was about to enter my CC data I realized that the site isn't secure. normally when you are shopping, the web address is Http and as soon as you go to check out the web address changes to https "s" means that the site is in compliance with security and that the CC or personal info entered will be encrypted. That was not the case with this website and I didn't place my order
