Scam attempt 'offer' via email from clone Ring site
I’ve just had an email addressing me by my registered Ring acct name purporting to be from ring. Rewarding me with an offer on a Ring cam. The offer link takes you to a fake clone ‘UK’ ring site. When you click buy it asks for your details on a popup HTTPS. But note the address bar has changed to PeaksPursuit.com. This is a PSA for those that may be a little less tech savvy and may click through everything without noticing.

Hi @t2uds. Thank you for sharing this and trying to help other neighbors. This was also mentioned in this Community post, where I responded with a link to report these scams.

Me too. Had this same ‘offer’ yesterday, stupidly fell for it and ordered a camera, paid on card, then realised it was a scam when the scammers took two debits from my account and I looked at the return email address.

CHi @user_e5ee3c. If you haven't done so already, please make sure to contact your financial institution to report compromised card information.

I’ve had two emails to the same effect today. Knew it was too good an offer (90% discount restocking offer 🙄) and the links on the page don’t go to any other page

Scammers will use every avenue available to them, including phone, text, and email. The spam folder in your email likely catches a lot of scam emails, but some can slip through. Do not click links in emails that you're unsure of. You can always view current sales and promotions by navigating directly to Ring.com from your web browser. If you do click a suspicious link, and provide any financial details, please contact your financial institution immediately to report your compromised information.
