Didn't see yours, but saw another site sponsors having the same issue.

Very similar site, same address, but I started to question things when they showed 80 rifles in stock of one particular type, and lots of primers.

When you can load 10K of primers into a cart and proceed to payment, you know there is something off.


Looks like they are starting to hit up more and more of the Canadian stores. Keep vigilant!!!

Oh no more fraud! I had to cancel two credit cards over 2 years because purchases I made from your store. I hope you address this issue quickly this time, not just a post on a forum. Thanks for the warning.

Do you realize that this "issue" has absolutely zero to do with the store, and there's zero they can actually do about it, other than giving you a warning out of courtesy?

Fun fact, you can buy domains (like firearmsoutlet.whatever) it is a very common scam to buy similar domains to real ones. There is very little that can be done about it, maybe a cease and desist, or contact the website host to remove copyright works.

This has nothing to do with FOC.

What a ridiculous post.

It's not a ridiculous post.

Sure, a fraudster spoofing a legitimate website cant be helped.

The fact remains that many, including myself, have had to sort out lengthy issues with our credit card companies due to some form of fraud taking place on the end FOC.

My specific fraud involved my credit card number being used legitimately at FOC and then fraudulently elsewhere as a result.

Joined today? Seems odd but fair if you're just here to troll.

File a police report and notify authorities of the fraudster.

The perp can be easily ID from the domain registrar if LE submits a warrant for the registrant details.

That issue was years ago and has ZERO to do with the current issue.
My card was compromised after a purchase at Canadian Tire, should I drone on about it till the end of time ?

Not much FOC can do about a fraudulent website....

FOC can file an abuse with the registrar and ISP and have the fraudulent site shut down especially if the perp is impersonating FOC and using their brand logo to deceive customers.

Also suggest filing a police report to protect FOC’s business from any potential complaints from defrauded customers.
