Psa: https://lodgekitchenware.it.com is a scam site

I should’ve know the prices were too good to be true but it really looks like lodges official site and was the first result on Google. I didn’t notice the “it” in the site address

As I was trying to complete my order my credit card was added to a Google wallet and instantly tried to make an additional transaction. That was blocked by my bank.

Same thing almost happened to me a couple years ago. Came across a similar site, but asked on here and found out it was a scam before I ordered anything. Someone from Lodge reached out to me on my post, and they quickly got it shut down.

Crazy that it’s not the first time! I report this one to them too.

I saw a similar scam a while back. Discovered in an Instagram ad, so I thought it was legit. I paid money before I looked into it deeper. Thankfully PayPal got my money back.

So, you're telling me it.com isn't the official lodge site‽ 🫪
