Warning Website scam- Southampton area

One of our trusted marine engineer businesses in Southampton has had it's website scammed. This is direct from our friends facebook page-

MB Marine Sales Ltd - The Outboard Service Centre
‎*BEWARE - POSSIBLE INTERNET SCAM**We have received reports that there is another company using the name of 'MB Marine Sales Ltd' to sell very cheap new Yamaha, Suzuki and Honda outboards ONLINE. They are using our company name, registration number and trading address. All prices are in $. PLEASE NOTE: This company is NOTHING to do with us. We suspect this is a SCAM and advise you to NOT BUY ANYTHING FROM THEM. Their website address is the usual three w's and then 'mbmarinesalesltd.org'. If you are not sure of something being sold online from someone reporting to be 'MB Marine Sales Ltd' please check with us BEFORE purchasing anything from them. THANK YOU
