You got me curious, so from Wikipedia:

.tk is the Internet country code top-level domain (ccTLD) for Tokelau, a territory of New Zealand located in the South Pacific.


Now, when I see something like that, I get suspicious about the legitimacy of the site. No disrespect meant to any Tokelauians here on FR.

In a website or email address it indicates Turkey. They would be the first the notice and be concerned about anything the Russians are up to having been at war or on the cusp of war with them, Muslim Caliph vs. Orthodox Christian Defenders of the Faith, Sultans vs. Czars, NATO vs. the Warsaw Pact, for hundreds of years. Not that anything in this article is to be taken as factual. The story has a strong aroma of tin foil.

It from Tokelau, some squirt little island territory owned by New Zealand. The “.tk” domain is in common usage because it’s free.
