U.S. and European agencies have seized 132 domain names that were allegedly used to sell counterfeit merchandise online. The websites were set up to dupe consumers into unknowingly buying counterfeit goods during the holiday shopping season. The operation was planned to coincide with ‘Cyber Monday,’ the Monday after Thanksgiving when people in the US are expected to continue their holiday shopping online from fast Internet connections in office. Officials seized 101 websites, and made one arrest, while the European side seized another 31. PayPal and parent eBay are working with the HSI on the operation.”]
