Amazon targets spelling mistakes

As Black Friday approaches, Amazon is looking to steal a march on its competitors. One of the simplest and easiest ways to drive traffic from unusual sources is to play on human error.

To do this, Amazon have bought the url www.ebqy.com, which is just one teeny tiny key away from www.ebay.com when you're typing quickly. So, instead of heading off to your favourite auction site, you get sent to Amazon's Black Friday deals page instead.

Underhand tactics are always good.

Nice find by @carlmartin
