Hi All,

Is there a place that I can report potential scammers using Avast Intellectual Property to further their scam?

Very deceptive, WHOIS shows they are based in Dehli despite claiming to be from Melbourne Australia.

Scam site for sure, poorly worded and even the customer reviews at the bottom of the page are all characters from Game of Thrones ;D
