Usually, with popular brands, it can be difficult to tell if they are legitimate companies or not. It can be even more difficult with Kamoni, which uses a popular swimwear name. In this Kamoni review, we will look at the company and its products and see if they are legit or a scam.
Kamoni is a swimwear retailer that sells bikinis, one-pieces, and cover-ups. When they appeared under the most searched sites on ScamAdviser, we wanted to investigate to see if they were worth your time.
According to ScamAdviser, the site was started way back in October 2002. In a way, that would win over the confidence of some shoppers as it would mean that they have been around for a while.
When I searched the same info on Archive.org, I found that the site was dormant for many years, and only in 2014 did it start becoming active again.
This is not the most confidence-inspiring beginning for Kamoni.
Kamoni's Products and prices
The site offers a range of swimwear for women, men, and children. But what caught my eyes was the out-of-this-world prices, with buyers getting four items for the price of three. But that's not all; most of these items have a high discount of up to 73%.
While stores run flash sales now and then, these sales and discounts on Kamoni are not all flash sales. A quick check on other popular swimwear stores shows that such high discounts and frequent sales are not the norms in the industry.
So, what's going on?
Well, the site may be selling counterfeit products or replica products. It is also possible that this is a marketing trick to lure in customers only to discover that the products are of poor quality.
The site does have a contact page with a physical address, telephone number, and email address.
However, upon further investigation, we found out that the physical address is also used on many other websites.
This has been a common red flag with scammers, and it would seem that Kamoni is following in those footsteps.
A search for Kamoni reviews on Trust Pilot shows that there are very few customer reviews out there. The ones that exist are not too confidence-inspiring either, with some customers complaining about never receiving their orders while others received items that were nothing like what they ordered.
Some have complained of long delays and efforts to cancel orders that never went through.
It is evident that Kamoni is not a site that can be trusted with your hard-earned money. With the many red flags we have come across in this review, it would be best to stay away from this site and find a better and more reputable swimwear retailer.
Many characteristics overlap with what we see in scam sites, and we would not recommend doing business with them.

As the influence of the internet rises, so does the prevalence of online scams. There are fraudsters making all kinds of claims to trap victims online - from fake investment opportunities to online stores - and the internet allows them to operate from any part of the world with anonymity. The ability to spot online scams is an important skill to have as the virtual world is increasingly becoming a part of every facet of our lives. The below tips will help you identify the signs which can indicate that a website could be a scam. Common Sense: Too Good To Be True When looking for goods online, a great deal can be very enticing. A Gucci bag or a new iPhone for half the price? Who wouldn’t want to grab such a deal? Scammers know this too and try to take advantage of the fact. If an online deal looks too good to be true, think twice and double-check things. The easiest way to do this is to simply check out the same product at competing websites (that you trust). If the difference in prices is huge, it might be better to double-check the rest of the website. Check Out the Social Media Links Social media is a core part of ecommerce businesses these days and consumers often expect online shops to have a social media presence. Scammers know this and often insert logos of social media sites on their websites. Scratching beneath the surface often reveals this fu
So the worst has come to pass - you realise you parted with your money too fast, and the site you used was a scam - what now? Well first of all, don’t despair!! If you think you have been scammed, the first port of call when having an issue is to simply ask for a refund. This is the first and easiest step to determine whether you are dealing with a genuine company or scammers. Sadly, getting your money back from a scammer is not as simple as just asking. If you are indeed dealing with scammers, the procedure (and chance) of getting your money back varies depending on the payment method you used. PayPal Debit card/Credit card Bank transfer Wire transfer Google Pay Bitcoin PayPal If you used PayPal, you have a strong chance of getting your money back if you were scammed. On their website, you can file a dispute within 180 calendar days of your purchase. Conditions to file a dispute: The simplest situation is that you ordered from an online store and it has not arrived. In this case this is what PayPal states: "If your order never shows up and the seller can't provide proof of shipment or delivery, you'll get a full refund. It's that simple." The scammer has sent you a completely different item. For example, you ordered a PlayStation 4, but instead received only a Playstation controller. The condition of the item was misrepresented on the product page. This could be the
