Description
This was originated from a Facebook ad advertising Hey Dude shoes. When I clicked the link, it brought me to www.discountonlinestore.com. Looked legitimate. In hindsight, clicking on the "contact us" page should have shown the red flags since it shows company name as "YINO" and address in France with no returning address.
