.. Anyway, I tried reaching the genuine site but I got an error message "a client–side exception has occurred" ish.
It should be a browser issue just try reloading or do some cache clearing /dissabling extensions if you have one depending on the error you have in your console though but if you’re not used to doing all that ,just try a different browser entirely..that should work.
Therefore, always verify  you’re on the official website, don’t just assume , verify to the last character of the URL..
That has saved me a lot of times. I don't neglect checking url if I've it spelt out or in my head.
Sorry, but I don’t think this is good advice.
Checking that the first and last characters are correct might make sense if we were talking about a bitcoin or some other cryptocurrency address, but it won’t be helpful or save you from falling victim to phishing websites.
I think we’re all on same page khaled0111 ,  the phrase “verify to the last character” actually means verifying thoroughly the whole characters not just the last character and first character.. and the statement from Mpamaegbu also was directing to these phrase having saved him in multiple scenarios, actually at first glance brain could interpret it as “save me a lot of time” which actually means a different thing entirely..
