Scam advertising campaigns have been identified that impersonate trusted brands to redirect consumers to unrelated online gambling sites. These operations utilize paid social media advertisements on platforms like Facebook, Instagram, and TikTok, combined with fake app store pages and Progressive Web Apps. The campaigns target UK consumers primarily, with variants observed in German and Spanish. Scammers impersonate major brands including financial institutions like Monzo, Revolut, and Barclays, as well as household names such as Tesco, Amazon, Netflix, and Facebook. The scheme involves three stages: paid ads claiming brands have launched official casino products, fake landing pages mimicking app stores, and PWAs that redirect to gambling sites through affiliate tracking links. Typical affiliate payouts range from $50 to $350 per depositing player, indicating significant financial motivation behind these operations.
