Investigation: Online jewelry site latest victim of global content phishing scam

An ongoing investigation into the criminal activities of Bazaardaily.com, we’ve now discovered new information regarding the content fishers and thieves behind the website. On Monday, we were tipped off about yet another victim of Bazaardaily.com ‘s long history of content phishing; copyright violations, and the outright theft of images and content that they were turning around and charging people for in the future.

The latest victim in that saga has been identified as SparkleSeeds. Sparkle Seeds is a jewellery website that is actually quite (adorbs) online. In a post that was sent to us on Monday, we confirmed that the following post first appears here:

The initial article appears to be some form of a sponsored post [definition].

The same article later appears on Sparkleseeds.com (which appears to be the actual article) except the fishers quite literally just in a small way altered the article.

The article that appears to have come from Sparkleseeds.com:

Hey Future Sparkle Sisters! There is something that I mention frequently in posts and blogs that I want to explain in more detail. I say, “Get Paid to Party Like a Boss” and “Party Like a Boss” all the time. I need to let you know what I mean with those phrases.

They are relatively self-explanatory, but have a three-fold purpose—just like joining Paparazzi Jewelry and Accessories does! Just remember Being, Getting, and Creating, or BGC. Those are words (and letters) to remember when creating your future with Paparazzi Jewelry and Accessories.

The original text has been bolded so it stands out, the stolen and altered text appears like so.

The article that has been stolen from Sparkleseeds.com’s advertisement [with the minor noticeable shows]

I  always talk about how I “Party Like a Boss” and “Get Paid to Party Like a Boss”. I mention in in blogs and posts, and I thought it was high time that I explain exactly what I mean when I say those terms. They are easy to understand, but they really are a triple-threat. Just remember Being, Getting, and Creating, or BGC. Those are words that I thought of when I was building my Paparazzi Jewelry and Accessories career. (2) If you follow my guideline, they will put you on the right track to winning—just like joining Paparazzi Jewelry and Accessories does!

Creating a Powerhouse of Hand-Picked Party Like a Boss Sparkle Seeds

For those of you that know me, you know that I run Live Paparazzi Jewelry shows at least 4 times every week and I have two reasons for going Live. One, of course, is to showcase and sell the lat4st jewelry and the other is to attract new consultants. I see people at their best during Paparazzi Jewelry and Accessories parties as they are always happy and upbeat. One thing I know is that, they LOVE to shop! My clients are friendly and excited about the high-quality jewelry and how much they can get for their hard-earned dollar. Many of my customers immediately notice how much Paparazzi Jewelry that I sell during my LIVE shows and start asking questions about how to be a consultant. I am always excited to discuss my career with paparazzi Jewelry and Accessories and how being my own boss has changed my life forever.

I managed to track down the owner of SparkleSeeds.com, who, told me via Facebook messages after I identified myself as a reporter for this newspaper — that she “had no idea what I was talking about”.

Like our many other investigations into this domain, I will be further researching their (new) registrant information to formally report this. They’ve already been forced to move hosts twice after being sued by Khane Enterprise for brand theft and illegal use of a copyrighted brand name.
