They all 3 are identical for me when I click on the URLs you provided 
in your email...  the contents are identical - only the addresses in 
the browser address bar reflect the different URLs. Corresponding 
links on the 3 sites take me to corresponding matching pages... in 
short, I don't see any hijacking going on - just 3 identical web sites 
at 3 similar URLs... So perhaps your browser or your web service has 
been altered/"hijacked" in some way?
