Interpol in conjunction with US Immigration and Customs Enforcement has seized the domains of almost 300 websites that were selling counterfeit merchandise.

The law enforcement agencies, not to mention politicians, are concerned that citizens are being taken for mugs online and cannot resist spending good money on fake rubbish.

The action this weekend was part of Interpol's Operation In Our Sites which targets fake floggers. Europol said that the seizures involved 25 law enforcement agencies from 19 countries and participation from the US National Intellectual Property Rights Coordination Center.
