Scam Description

I received an email from Dicks Sporting Goods with the subject line “Expiring Soon: Your Name Came Up For a YETI Hopper M20 Cooler customer Gift”. The email asks you to click on the banner to complete a quick survey to claim the prize and redirects you to the following website: https://templarswoards.com/c9f8b095e0d7089e70331f88c0c1abb3. The survey seems legitimate enough and at the end requests you to complete the shipping information of where to send the Yeti cooler and only asks you to pay the shipping fee. As such, the scammer gets your mailing information as well as your card information. Once this is completed, you receive a confirmation email for the shipping charge from a different email (support@tryperfectshopdiscount.com) with no actual items in the order.
