Walmarts dirty tricks to generate traffic

I just discovered something about 5 min ago, and I figure I might as well share it here.

Try going to www.facebok.com
I dont know about you, but for me it redirects me to the Walmart website.

That`s because the site is a mis-spelling of facebook.com and isn`t legit

See HERE.

Also see HERE.

Lots of websites are set up to take advantage of someone who mis-types a url.
