Can you spot three fake websites and compare the three fake websites to three real websites, plus showcase what makes the fake websites fake?
Examples of fake websites include:
- eb8y.com
- googlegl.net
- yahoofiles.com
Some important factors about determining whether or not a website is fake includes the spelling of the URL and if the link specifies http/https. Usually, when the URL does not include https, it is unsecure, hence the “s”. The fake websites above have several red flags and offer no clear and concise information, like no contact data.
Examples of real websites include:
- https://www.ebay.com
- https://www.google.com
- https://www.yahoo.com
The https and the spelling of the URL are what determines the realness of the websites. These examples all include correct spelling and are secure. In summary, always double check the spelling and secuirty of a website before clicking/putting any information into it.
