I found this site which provide discount up to 90 percent discount for mavic phantom 3 and 4 and inspire 2, they sell it at unbelievably low price.
Is it a scam? Can anyone help me to identify it? Has anyone bought from this site?

The link to the site is here

DJI are not police.

Fraud investigation should be held in country of fraud by proper authority.

OP, does this seem too good to be true???????????????????????????????????
Go ahead and order and we will follow suit.

Wow - that site just listed a 2018 Acura NSX, loaded, with a delivered price of $2,999.99 US.

How can they do that?

I ordered 2 - one for each of my personalities!

But DJI should do something to stop this before its too late. Because it involved the credibility of DJI itself.

Everything is blocked by the ISP.  The address above is probably not correct, so I am searching the company name now.  Kinda fun to find this stuff, but also too many blocks these days that allow fraud like this to take place.  In the past, you couldn't hide this way.

It's wordpress shopkeeper theme. Almost the basic version, a little kid could set that up.

I don't think we divide pennies by 10 here either. And the oder!

They have the Inspire 2 for $128. But it doesn't come with a camera, so I had to pass.

The website now re-routes to http://ww1.kuwanok.com, and returns blank page.
Perhaps your digging got fake website taken out.
