Description
A closing-the-store sale popped up on Instragram/Facebook for Cotopaxi. The link went to cotopaxigear.store where it looked legit enough, except for the fact that items were 90% off and it had a 20-minute timer running and another continuous pop-up of others buying gear showing up in the lower left-hand corner.
