Occasionally, [[How to use a SLurl Teleport Link - Video Tutorial|SLURL]] link may lead somewhere other than the place it advertised.  There are a few possible reasons for such  mix-up:
 
 
* The creator of the SLURL link accidentally set the wrong location.
* The location has changed or been sold since the SLURL link was created.
* The person distributing the SLURL link intentionally misrepresented the end location.
 
 
If your incorrect landing location appears to be a unintentional, you should contact the creator of the SLURL link to inform them of the issue.
 
 
===What should I do if a SLURL link appears to be designed with malicious intent?===
 
 
If you follow a SLURL link, and you find that the destination was clearly misrepresented on purpose (for example, to smear the name of another Resident's brand), you should file an [http://support.secondlife.com/ics/support/default.asp?deptID=4417&task=knowledge&questionID=3989 abuse report] with the following parameters:
 
 
* Open the Report Abuse window by choosing '''Help > Report Abuse'''.
* Choose '''Other''' as the abuse type.
* Select the offending Resident by pressing the '''Choose Resident''' button.
* Fill in a descriptive '''Summary''' and '''Details'''; make sure to include:
** The SLURL link itself: If you're standing at the location, the SLURL link should fill in automatically in the '''Location of Abuse''' field.
** The nature of the abuse: Describe the implied destination of the SLURL link, and the actual destination.  Try to explain why you think the actual destination is an abuse of SLURL link usage.
