Michael Jackson Phishing Scam, featuring Comodo

Be on the lookout folks. Not only are the malthors using Michaels name to infect the living hell out of you, but it also seems, they're using his name to try and scam as much money as possible out of you. The bad guys in this case, are Digital Target Marketing (digitaltargetmarketing.com - 67.192.83.139), who are responsible for my receiving this;

Say yes to this, and you're taken to:



You get the idea ........ once they're finished trying to get you to buy everything and anything, you finally reach the payment confirmation page. Oh and don't worry, they know you won't change your mind, which is why there's no "Yes, I really am sure I want you to help yourself to my credit card funds!" option.

But wait, we're not done quite yet. If we go back and load the deckbond.com root (vURL Results), we see a link that takes us to a URL on bestwhole.com, which eventually leads us to;

https://secure.subscriptionmarketinginc.com/wealthtools/new_offer4/index.php?sub=669&sub1=1227755047&sub2=

And yeppers folks, this is another phishing scam.

I'm actually rather disappointed with this particular one, not just because they're using Michaels name to try and scam vulnerable fans, but also because, as a fan myself, I'd have loved a copy of the stuff they're "selling". Bleedin figures.

i just purchased jupiter jack from the same people and went through the same process where they ask you to buy a ton of stuff. I got confused and said yes to one of the options because I thought that it was part of the current buy one get one free option. I will be able to call and fix my order right?

You should be able to, yes, but I'd advise contacting your credit card company and asking them to do a charge back for the entire order and getting the stuff elsewhere.
