Hermes Anniversary Celebration - A Scam

If you are one of those who got the following message:

"Hermes 184th Anniversary Celebration" and claiming a free bag.....
BEWARE!!
DO NOT CLICK THE LINK.



Let me explain, Hermes is a French origin brand and have established in USA. its original website ( https://www.hermes.com/us/en/) is having IP address registered in US.

However, the forwarded scammed link (https://cz-ceiecsh(dot)com(dot)cn) has the domain registration (dot)cn i.e. China.

The link in the message goes to a fake Hermes website located at fevan(dot)com(dot)cn where visitors will be asked to complete questionnaires in order to receive Hermes bag. But, it does not matter how many questionnaires visitors complete, they will never get the bag they are promised and the personal information collected via the questionnaires will be sent to online scammers. 

The scammers will then use the collected information to contact and attempt to scam their potential victims.

If you think this was a piece of useful information, please comment. 

NB:
Those who explored and found favourable reviews, pls click on the hyperlink of the reviewers..... It won't proceed. Those are the fake reviews for tempting :-P
