Recently made a purchase (I thought) of a bbq grille via Google which purported to be from Lidl. The information was very impressive and totally fooled me. Always check the web page information. The web page is actually still there. Have informed both Google and Lidl. Lidl have been very appreciative.

I doubt google will be worried, their only concern is making money by selling ads to these scammers.
