Rideout Arsenal Warns Customers of Scam Website

The Rideout Arsenal Dragon, released to the public just a few weeks ago, has quickly garnered a great deal of interest online. It is innovative, unique from many perspectives, it has polarizing looks, and it's a premium product. All this attention has brought an unexpected, and definitely unwanted, outcome: a fake website posing as the real one, with the intent of scamming potential customers.

Rideout Arsenal Warns Customers of Scam Website

In the message to their customers, Rideout Arsenal warns the public of the existence of a fake website:

“We want to let you know that someone has set up a fake site purporting to be Rideout Arsenal's official site.

They call it, rideoutarsenalllc.com  It is fraudulent garbage.

The REAL Rideout Arsenal site: w ww.rideoutarsenal.com 

This re-directs to our store which is at: https://rideout-arsenal.mybigcommerce.com/ “ 

We reached out for further comments on October 29th, 2025, and Travis Rideout added the following details:

“We just found it yesterday (28th). It was apparently registered on the 14th but we are not sure exactly when that site went live. We have filed an abuse complaint with the host [… ] for the phishing and copyright infringement. We were told 24-72 hours for them to review and takedown the scam site.

We also notified our host and Google to block any fraudulent counter abuse claims and to get the scam site de-indexed. We are further investigating brand and trademark protection through 3rd party vendors. We posted on all our social media to inform our customers about the fake site. We sincerely hope no one was deceived and defrauded by this bad actor. We have reached out to everyone that has purchased a first edition Dragon to confirm that their order is legitimate.”
