My wife sent me a link to a Kathmandu jacket she wanted to buy our son; the price of that item, and everything else on the outlet site, was certainly amazing - $65 for a down jacket!

 

Yeah, nah... glad we didn't fall for this, but I wonder if many have? Is there any reputable site for confirming disreputable sites?

Kathmandu will have do do something about it, but you can report sites in most browsers so that the safe browsing stuff will trigger if they accept that its bad.

It aliases to pengkathmandu.shopsupers.com which is registered out of China... certainly not legit

Must be the next target

R.M Williams was recently the same. Facebook page and all.

And people swore black and blue although it they purchased a cheap knockoff rather than get nothing that it was 'OK' and not a scam since goods arrived

Clearly different meanings to non legit as everyone else had.

Friend got scammed by some famous shoe lot.... she paid etc, then queried it with me..... site had a few alarm bells, so I contacted via live chat the official UK site and asked if they had a NZ site, answer was "nope". 

 

Told her to contact bank... dont think she ever did.
