摘要

Recently, the number of victims of fake shopping websites that imitate legitimate ones to defraud people has been increasing. It has been shown that fake shopping websites use legitimate defaced landing websites as their leading paths. Therefore, if the detection of landing websites for fake shopping websites can be achieved, it can assist in addressing these websites and reduce the opportunities for users to be redirected to fake shopping websites. In this study, we collect and investigate existing landing websites that redirect users to fake Japanese shopping websites and identify effective features for detecting them. We identified effective search terms for collecting landing websites for fake Japanese shopping websites and found that using Google searches with queries of top-level domain and product names was effective. We also investigated the conditions for activating analytical evasion functions in the collected landing websites for fake Japanese shopping websites and clarified the differences in search results between crawlers and users.
