kultofathene.com/, I don;t trust it. It links to Kult of athena, but doesn't change the URL above. Just being paranoid, but maybe it's a mirror of the actual websites to gather info.

Some companies register a few misspellings that are close to their name so that another company doesn't do the same and scoop their business. This is probably what KoA has done.

hmmm, yes looks to be a mirror. if you click on the company name logo at the top of the page it takes you to the properly spelled site so I doubt it is a phishing trap.
still for peace of mind sake I would still only order from the properly spelled one and not go there via the link at the top of the misspelled page.

Yeah it's probably just me being paranoid. But tell me what he says.

The link is legit. ------------------------------- My email to KOA and their reply: Hello, Recently it was noted on the SBG forum that this link brings up what appears to be your webstore: kultofathene.com/ is this a legitimate link? do you have ownership of certain misspellings of your site in order to direct people to you just in case they get the name wrong, and to keep competition from trying to pull something sneaky? Thanks, Chris Peroni --------------------------------------- Yep, this is us. We do have a few alternate versions of the name. In this case Athene is an alternate spelling of Athena. Thanks Ryan Whittlinger |
