"Most of the sites are still empty with "stubs" and will obviously be used in the future for phishing campaigns. As a rule, sites of this kind offer to pre–order a vaccine at a discount or purchase a batch at the lowest price," Roskachestvo told the Prime agency.

Mailings from such sites may contain links with malicious attachments, through which payment and personal data of the user can be stolen. In that case, if the attackers really send the order to their buyer, then it will not be a medicine, but a useless dietary supplement.

In connection with this situation, the Center for Digital Expertise of Roskachestvo categorically does not recommend trying to purchase a COVID-19 vaccine on the Internet, it is necessary to wait for the start of universal vaccination. This is the only way fraudsters will not be able to use your money and personal data.
