Did I just get scammed?

[petehay]

I purchased a kit from what I thought was the Artisania Latina website. I now see that the url is https://artesanlalatlna.com/.

The site looks legit but now I’m worried.

here is what I get when I Google AL..

 

https://artesanialatina.net/

 

 

Depending on what pay method you used, that site is probably harvesting personal information.  If you used a credit card, I would lock it, and report the transaction.

 

Also contact Artisania Latina .   They have a presence here.

@GregoryThanks, that is exactly what I did, locked the credit card.

If the it looks too good to be true...

 

The price of their Victory on the main site is around $1400, the one on that site you bought from is showing $259.99. This huge discrepancy should have set off massive alarm bells with it being over $1k cheaper than the main AL site.

Actually quite solid scam page, the design and everything gets a pass, nothing feels too forced. But the thing is, it is a scam page and if you check some other parts of the website, it just misses information and the url is the biggest loss, typical using small "L" instead of "i".

I reported it already and will send email to ALif they don't see this in the next 24 hours

As mentioned, block your card and report the transaction by calling your bank.

Stay safe and remember to always check url for any weird spelling of company name.

One of the quickest ways I identify these scam sites  ( too good to be true is one ), put something in your cart and try to check out with PayPal.  It won't work the way PayPal  should.  Actually, it won't work at all.

Not much that I can add to this beyond what Chris and others have said. You 'must' be cautious these days! Know what you are buying, know what it is actually worth, and always carefully read the web address! 

Scammers are getting really clever these days.
