Company Rating

We see that the owner of the website is using a service to hide his/her identity. This may be because the owner does not want to get spammed. However, it also makes it difficult to identify the real owner of the website. As a result, websites hiding their identity get a slightly lower score.

This website seems to offer mobile phone location services. In the past several scams have been reported to us that offers a service to locate somebody's mobile phone online. This is technically not possible. Phone operators to not provide this information online. It is possible to install an app on your phone to locate your phone when it is turned on. Apple offers this service for free to phone owners. Do not pay money for an online service offering to find your mobile phone (or that of somebody else).

Cloudflare is a worldwide distributed Content Delivery Network (CDN) platform. Cloudflare does not provide web hosting services and is primarily concerned with web performance and security. It is also a Google Cloud Platform and IBM Cloud partner and therefore shares a lot of mutual reputable customers with both companies. One of Cloudflare's most popular services is its Domain Name Service (DNS) which comes with built-in security measures such as DDoS-blocker and DNSSEC, as well as a Web Application Firewall (WAF). The platform's reputation over the years made it the go-to for a lot of credible organizations and platforms, including ScamAdviser; but like with everything else on the internet, it is still prone to misuse by scammers. 

Webshop Analysis

This website is deemed to be popular by Tranco with a ranking of . Having a high ranking in Tranco is a good sign. Not only does the website have a lot of visitors. Also several other websites link to this site, meaning that it is considered relevant by others.

We discovered that this website is using a third-party review system. We consider this a positive finding as the website cannot manipulate the reviews directly. While you should still be careful when you are checking the reviews, external reviews are much more reliable than reviews placed on a website by the owner directly. If you like to learn more about how to check if reviews are real or fake, check out "How to recognize fake reviews".

This website has received votes on Scamadviser that it may sell fake products. Fake products are often a lot cheaper than the real thing. However, they also have several disadvantages like helping organized crime and possibly endangering your own health. Websites offering fakes also often do not deliver as they know you are less likely to report them to the police. We recommend you check our blog post "How to recognize counterfeit products" in order to be sure. 

The name of the website has been claimed for more than a year in advance. This is a good sign. Most website owners only register their domain name for one year and renew every year. Companies who register their domain name for a longer-term (up to 10 years) mean to continue their business for a long time. Most scammers sell the name of their websites after a few months once their scam has become common knowledge.

This website has been set-up several years ago. We consider this a positive sign. The longer a website exists, the more it can be expected that it is legit. However, the age of the website is unfortunately no guarantee. In some cases, scammers have been found to buy existing domain names and start their malicious practice here. So checking a website remains a necessity. 

Technical Analysis

This registrar has a high percentage of spammers and fraud sites. The domain registration company seems to attract websites with a low to very low trust score. This may be a chance but it may also because the "Know your customer" process of the registrar is poor or non-existing. We reduced the trust score of the website as a result.

We have identified payment methods such as Alipay, Mastercard, Paypal, Visa who offer the consumer the option to get their money back if a product is not delivered or another form of dispute arises between the consumer and the merchant. There is never a 100% guarantee. Each payment method has its own restrictions to get money back and the merchant may still entice you to use a different payment method. Make sure you are paying with the method you want to. Want to know more? Read our article on "Safe Payment Methods".

We discovered that the website owner is making an effort to be legally compliant by asking permission to place cookies. We consider this a good sign and are therefore giving a few extra points to the Trust Score of this website.

A valid SSL certificate was found. Professional companies use an SSL certificate to encrypt communication between your computer and their website. However, there are different levels of certification and scammers also install a free SSL certificate. If you have to enter your data, never do this without checking if an SSL certificate protects your information.

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
