So what do you guys think?

False alarm, the domain is abbey.com so is therefore genuine. The forgery thing is when someone sets up an identical website to try to trick people into thinking it's the real thing, but you can always tell because of the domain name.

Isn't there that thing where you can type and view the correct domain address but still be at a different website? I thought it was a big thing they couldnt stop.

There's dns poisoning, but that doesn't apply to this situation. You can check the ip address anyway.

DNS poisoning? Maybe but if you check the IP on ripe.net it's owned by abbey.

Malformed characters in the url string can hide it from you if you click a link but doesn't mean anything if you type the address yourself - plus no current browser suffers from it.
