AV-Comparatives Reveals How to Outsmart Digital Fraudsters this Holiday Season – Cybersecurity Shopping Protection, a Fake-Shop Detection Test

AV-Comparatives, the leading independent cybersecurity testing organization, has released a report on fraudulent online shop / fakeshop detection, revealing cybersecurity products’ ability to protect consumers during the holiday shopping season.

Holiday Shopping Risks

With online shopping at an all-time high, consumers face increasing threats from sophisticated fake websites designed to scam users. Besides the critical threat of data theft, an equally concerning risk is the potential to make purchases under the pretence of genuine transactions, only to find that ordered goods are never delivered. The study tested 38 cybersecurity solutions against over 500 fake shop URLs.

“Scammers are becoming increasingly sophisticated, often using stolen logos, manipulated reviews, and expired domains with good Google reputations to create seemingly legitimate online shops,” said the security researcher Stefan Haselwanter at AV-Comparatives.

Key Findings
  • Only a small number of tested cybersecurity products offer robust protection against fake online shops
  • Top-performing products include Avast, AVG, Fake-Shop Detector, McAfee, NordVPN, Norton, and Webroot
  • Fake shops often have an online lifespan of only a few weeks or months
