Scammers love to impersonate. Here's how to spot the real iNKORE! and protect yourself.
Always verify us before downloading, payment, or clicking links!
Is This Link Official & Safe?
Paste a URL below to check if it's our official site or a scam.
Always Double-Check the URL
Domains that we own
Always double-check the URL of the website you are visiting. Make sure it is the official site of the service you are trying to access. As of now, we own and ONLY own the following domains:
inkore.net
The official website, information and catalog of our services.
inkore.app
Applications and services that you can use right in your browser.
Note: the subdomains of the above domains are owned by us as well, and are considered official. For example, 'inkore.net' is owned by us, that means anything ends with 'inkore.net', like 'docs.inkore.net', 'blog.inkore.net' and 'inkore.net' are also trusted.
This list above is not exhaustive, and we if we start using more domains, we will update this list as soon as possible.
Fake Domains to Avoid
You can consider any domain that is not listed above as fake. The following domains are known to be fake:
inkore.co
inkore.com
inkore.top
inkorestudios.com
inkore-payment.com
mcskinn.com
Sites claiming to be 'partnered with iNKORE' or 'unofficial mirrors' are also considered impersonators, unless we explicitly state otherwise.
How to Spot Fake
We have been there - frustrated by fake domains and scams that just look like the real deal. Fake domains are either very similar to the original ones, but with a few letters changed, or they are using a name that is quite deceptive. But as long as you are taking security seriously and be careful enough, you can spot them by following these tips.
Verify the TLD
Be cautious of unusual top-level domains (TLDs). We only use the TLDs mentioned above. If you see a domain like 'inkore.xyz' or 'inkore.co', it's likely a scam.
Check for Typos
Scammers use subtle misspellings like '1nkore.net' (number 1 instead of letter 'i'), 'inkoree.app' to trick you into thinking it's the real site.
Look for HTTPS
Always check for HTTPS in the URL. If the site doesn't have a valid SSL certificate, it's a red flag - this usually means that your connection to us has been hijacked and tampered with by an attacker, and does NOT mean that the website you are visiting is a fake.. We always use HTTPS for our domains.
You can also try the smart checker at the top of the page as a quick reference. It might not be 100% accurate, but it can help you spot some of the most common fake domains.
