Counterfeits goods made available online have become a recent focus of law officials in the United States. And on Monday, they remained an emphasis as the U.S.Immigration and Customs Enforcement,otherwise known as ICE,swept in to shut down a number of domain names allegedly guilty of trafficking illegal products.

The Monday after Thanksgiving is known in the retail world as “Cyber Monday,” as online companies significantly discount products

made available through their web presences. It was also an opportune chance to go after illegal operations.

The operation seized a total of fifteen websites containing counterfeit sporting merchandise. The move arrives as part of a large global

investigation into pirated goods.
