Description:
If you're sure that the website address is correctly typed, then three possibilities remain for it appearing as a different site altogether. # It's been hacked and its contents have been replaced with what you see now. # The website's DNS account was hacked and is now redirecting you to another IP address. # You are witnessing a [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DNS_spoofing DNS poisoning] attack. To avoid this circumstance, use [[I want to be anonymous when browsing the web|an anonymity network or a VPN]]. You may also want to try searching through various online cache repositories that take a historical snapshot of various sites, including [http://cachedview.com/ Cached View] and the Internet Archive's [https://archive.org/web/ Wayback machine].
