HSL chairs website warning

1.4K Posts


Having seen the TV adverts for this company I went on-line to have a look.
I remembered the site was called HSL so keyed in hsl.co.uk only to have a dangerous site warning flashed up on screen to say that Firefox had blocked this site as it contained a potentially dangerous trojan.
I came out and checked the name, to find that the correct site is actually called hslchairs.com.
Obviously whoever set up the fake site is hoping to target elderly people who may not have strong security set up on their computers.
