I came across this popup whilst investigating a scam text I received earlier today, impersonating Lowes to falsely claim I won a Stanley toolset. One of the popups had a similar IP address to a popup that redirected me to the afforementioned popup, which is designed to impersonate CVS Pharmacy.

These numbers are active across random areas in vast numbers
I have heard this identical menu thousands of times while searches have been running
The Filipino call centers which have an ivr 9 are in vast numbers all over the place also
I suspect it doesn’t matter what number is dialed, because you are going to tell them what you are interested in anyway, which is why they never say what products or websites they represent. There are thousands of them

These are 86 more I was able to find easily in targeted searches

The website is fraudulently promoting the “Gadget Pro Flashlight Stun Gun” while operating under the identity of “Tech Rift Flashlight Stun Gun” from a UPS Store in Fullerton, California. I was asked to purchase the product for $8.95 with a Mastercard, but the purchase page only serves to sign me up for a “special deal club” for an additional $24-199 every 8-30 days.

I was able to trace this all back to TMDK Ventures Private Limited due to the PorkBun domain, InContact phone number and the discount for MasterCard users.
