Type "amazon.cm" into your browser (omit the "o") : The request will redirect to Amazon's (AMZN) rival eBay (EBAY).
This is called typosquatting. It's illegal. It's also quite common: Searches for "google.cm" go to something called money4scrapgold.com, "yahoo.cm" goes to viralvideos.org, "msn.cm" redirects to personals site singlesnet.com.
But "amazon.cm" going to a competitor like eBay takes the shady practice to new level.
In fairness to eBay, the company probably isn't even aware this is happening. "Amazon.cm" redirects first through icarfinder.com, a site we've never heard of that's registered in Venezuela. This is likely a rogue eBay account holder trying to game eBay's store referral credit program through unethical means.
If so, what's eBay going to do about it?
