Why is it like this? Did I lose my money?

I tried to buy some gift cards online and I see they accept bitcoin at a discount. I went to Bitcoin.com and thought I bought Bitcoin but it turns out I bought something called “BCH”, sent it, and now my money is lost somewhere.

Why would bitcoin.com trick me into buying some other coin? Is this normal or ethical? Can I get my money back somehow?

Thanks for your help.
