* FAKE * Shaw survey + reward

technut

Just a heads up that while browsing the internet today I got redirected to a FAKE Shaw survey + reward offer (see picture attached). It had the Shaw logo and a countdown timer to encourage a fast decision to start answering questions.

I was redirected to the domain "mobilevd.com" to take the survey but that may not be consistent. It looked somewhat realistic since it had the Shaw look & feel. It probably uses the logo/style of whatever ISP that it detects you are coming from (not just Shaw).

I didn't fall for it but I'm concerned others could. Not sure what the end result would be if you answered the "survey" but I'm sure it's not a reward and nothing good can come from it.

SO BEWARE.

I saw this today too, as well as in the past. I was redirected from TutorialsPoint, but I've seen it come up when using Outlook.com as well. I believe the attacker snuck a redirect into an advertisement through AdSense, AdChoice, or Valueimpression.

Even if I didn't think it were a scam, it is so aggressive I would have closed it out of anger.

Here's all of the info I could gather...
