Accuracy International Cyber Squatter

[Lowlight]

At Shot Show 2023, I was informed of an unauthorized domain claiming to be Accuracy International USA.

There is No Accuracy International USA, they are NOT affiliated with AI or its partners.

The domain is accuracyinternationalusa.com so please avoid this site at all costs.

They offer a lot of shady finance options, and Accuracy International Proper has yet to determine if there are any rifles even associated with them. The owner of the domain is listed as Name Silo so no actual company is associated with it.

Again, this company is cybersquatting on the domain in order to draw you away from the real Accuracy International websites.

Is yet another of the Zelle/Cryptocurrency payment only scam sites plaguing the firearms market recently.

Mother. Fucking. Scammers. Offer payment in everything scammy but Flips.

I really hope AI can get the site off'd, but quite frankly if you're stupid enough to fall for Zelle/Crypto only in the shopping cart, you pretty much deserve to lose $10k.

Is this still available and, if so, how many flips?

 

[candyx]

Ship me a 338 and I will send the $200.00 for shipping.

I ran across this website earlier this week. They were offering a 15% if you paid in cryptocurrency and that was a major red flag.

They also use pics with the eurooptic watermark. I’m sure others as well.

AI should contact https://www.a2hosting.com/ and let them know they are hosting a scam website.

https://www.namesilo.com/contact_us.php

NameSilo seem to be US based so should be receptive to being contacted about this as well.

It's more up to date than the real Accuracy International websites.

There is a process for dealing with these jokers, deal with this literally everyday at work.

AI IT team should be familiar with it but if not point them here - https://www.wipo.int/amc/en/domains/guide/

They should be able to claim the domain name and have it awarded to them through the court system at which point they can simply park the domain so it can't be used by squatters....but criminals are gonna criminal and will figure out another variation to lure people with.

@Lowlight feel free to reach out if you need more info or direction for the folks at AI. There are companies that deal with this sort of thing as part of their business, and manage the UDRP process to reclaim the domain and get it handed over to AI.

incase anyone was wondering. this scammer site is still very active and very scammer as of today.

on a side note, anyone know any good hackers that can ruin lives that want some pro-bono work?

LOL...yesterday I was working my way thru sites to get notifications for when AW mags come back in stock and saw that site, jumped in, put 2 of them in my cart, and then saw payment methods....so, fuck that and fuck them! haha

 

[Cody S]

I'm very surprised AINA hasn't done anything about that. hope nobody falls for it.

 

[Edsel]

It’s actually pretty well - done, that site.

 

[Sniperwannabee]

Hey Lowlight, I sent you a PM last week, I am new to this forum and am not sure if I did it right or if you received it. Please let me know, thx!
