My favourite bit is

Good luck with that.

its sly though isn't it? \it looks like it could be MEC Mountain Equipment CoOp in Canada

With new tld extensions coming online it can be worth asking whether an established brand would really use “that domain”. Haven’t looked at .shop but there may be quite a high number of dodgy registrations.

In a similar vain I use an Italian domain for some internal stuff because it ends in .it but I would be suspicious of a U.K. entity using .it for a public facing platform (we use org.uk as that’s what we are).

And as I tell my kids if it’s on Facebook it’s probably a scam/ fraud/ lie. (What’s Facebook dad? Oh it’s a cesspit for old people.)

Looks like the website has been taken down
