    I've been checking into a website for years and never a problem. Tonight i clicked in and I'm being directed to a site with the URL, end of the internet dot com. Doesn't look very legit. There's a message saying
    Sorry, but you have reached...
    The End of the Internet.
    EndOfTheInternet . com

    That's right, this is the Last Page on the very Last Webserver of the Entire Internet!

    In case you were wondering, the end of the Internet is located way up in the cloud.

    No journey would be complete without a souvenir t-shirt or webcomic from Amazon!

    You can't go any further from here.
    YOU MUST NOW START BACK AT THE VERY BEGINNING!


    I opened chrome on the phone and typed ***.com and I was straight in .

    If I google the site on the laptop and click on the first three links I'm still being taken to this same site.

    It would help to say what this secret site name is. Otherwise, open the chrome devtools and see what the network request/responses are saying for a redirect.

    pogues .com.

    I often go in to look around the forums. Tonight it keeps bringing me to this other site. It might be worth mentioning I'm using a new laptop in the last few days and it's my first time logging in since my last one.

    If you can recreate it, capture the source of the redirect with the developer tools in whatever browser it is.
