Here is a spam message which follows:
Valentine day offer!
iphone 5s only 14999
iphone 6 only 24999 valid for 3 day only. Hurry up!!
Visit-www.globelshopping.com or Call-07531930403

*********************************************************************************

By reading the above message it seems to be attractive but wait behind the scenes there is problem with it here is the description below:
1) iphone at such amazing prize seems to be attractive and many would fell in the trap but think again why at such prizes, even apple could not afford to produce these products at such prizes.
2) When I visited the website I found there is no section for Contact Us or About Us there is only one number to contact so it is again suspicious. If anyone is selling the product on its website than there would always be sections like Contact us, About us or FAQ, but nothing is found in the website.
3) On contacting above number they claim that they were new in market and wanted to make names like other product selling website so they are selling this products at cheaper prize and there HQ is in Chennai. What does not make sense is if you want to make names like other website than advertising would be the best medium especially through TV or print media rather than just texting to numbers. If you want customer to buy your product than customer support must be a big concern but there is no email id or any other number so that customer could contact.
4) Other thing is the website is designed in hurry so there are no proper photographs of the product, If you are launching your website at such initiative than the website must be properly maintained and content must be in order but it was all opposite on it.
5) Website claims to have office in Chennai but the website was registered on godaddy.com with location from Delhi here is the detail below:
Registrant Name: Gaurav Singh
Registrant Street: D - 264 Laxmi Nagar Metro Pillar no - 96
Registrant City: Delhi
Registrant State/Province: DL
Registrant Postal Code: 110092
Registrant Country: IN
Registrant Phone: +91.9670451018
Registrant Email: homeshoponline45@gmail.com

Above information clearly shows that it belongs to that person in Delhi so why the company have their HQ in Chennai.
6) When I went up to payment gateway the name of company was Global India which does not match the website name or other details of the websites.

Obviously it is fraud and if you buy your product from this type of website then there are chances that they will not deliver your product after deducting the money from your account. So do not go through this type of traps and buy your product online from reputate websites.

Be safe, be aware.

Subject: Ur Email won 6 Crore 69 lakhs in Chevrolet UK send, Name, Add, Tel No, Sex to chevr2015@hotmail.com From: endika@transvision.co.id **************************************************************************************************************************************** Well! this much detail was only found in the mail Nothing was written in the mail except the subject and the sender id. Probably I think the sender was in much hurry to send the mail. It is bounce fake mail i.e. if you have got this mail then it must have come to you from bouncing one email id to another. Here email id in the subject does not match the sender. Also, the mail id claiming to be of Chevrolet does not belong to them. There is no official post for claiming of any prizes in the company's official website. Even the winning prize does not make point as there is no currency written. It is 100% fake and do not reply to this kind of mails. Be alert, be safe.
