If you're looking for Twitter accounts promoting an ad-infested website with a deceptively similar name to UK news agency Sky News, then this botnet's for you. #MondayMotivation #Scamalicious

The real website for Sky News is sky(dot)com (and various subdomains, such as news(dot)sky(dot)com). The fake site is sky-news(dot)co(dot)uk, with a hyphen. Image
This botnet consists of six accounts, all created on October 11th, 2020. These accounts tweet via automation service IFTTT. All use female profile pics and have bitly links on their profiles that lead to sky-news(dot)co(dot)uk, which is not actually Sky News. ImageImageImage
