Online Threat Alerts (OTA) - Alerting you to scams and frauds.
Scamming - Fraud
Today, we received the email bribe below asking us to remove bad reviews for particular websites. The email came from cdnmedialtd@gmail.com, which appears to be associated with a lot of allegedly fake and fraudulent websites. "CDN MEDIA LTD" is the registrant organization for the websites. The bribe offered us US$15,000, which is a lot of money just to remove content. But, Online Threat Alerts does not take brides. Our aim is to help protect online users.
