Anyone know about these websites from Amazon?

[rounakr94]

Yesterday saw some websites from Amazon with Arcus prefix.

Like:

"https://arcus-www.amazon.com"

"https://arcus-www.amazon.in"

"https://arcus-www.amazon.co.uk"

I did some own research with an alternate account and found these points.

Whois and all registration info points to Amazon being the owner for arcus-....... domain.

Arcus is a webcache service owned by AWS.

Login page of "fake" website redirects to amazon.in / com / uk. 

 

Logging out of amazon.in logs you out of arcus-........ website.

Anyone knows what is this arcus thingy is and if this is safe or not? 

Kaspersky doesn't throw up any error or warnings.
