Is Homesizy.com Legit or a Scam? | ScamAdviser
Author: Adam Collins
Since scammers are nowadays getting creative, it's crucial to be able to recognize a scam. One of the best ways to do this is by arming yourself with the right information. In this review, we will attempt to give as much information as possible about Homesizy.com.
Homesizy.com is an online store that focuses on a variety of products from shirts to caps to bedding sets. However, are they legit, or is it yet another cleverly hidden scam? Let’s find out, shall we?
Homesizy.com Reviews
Customer reviews offer firsthand insights about a site and what I found about Homesizy.com was mostly negative. On ScamAdviser, most of the customers are complaining that they never received their orders and communication has turned out futile.
On Trustpilot, the company has over 72 reviews mostly a mixed bag with some praising the site while others are critical.
Upon further research, I found there is a high possibility that Homesizy.com is engaging in customer review fraud as most of the positive reviews peaked in November 2022, which is very suspicious.
Interestingly, they have glowing positive reviews on the website, allegedly from their customers. They even have a section on the website dedicated to this called “Happy Customers”. Most of the reviews here are mostly 4 and 5 stars but there is no way of verifying the legitimacy of the said reviews.
Where Are They Located?
According to the information on their website, they have three addresses, which are:
- US Address 1: 13618 Gain St, Pacoima, CA 91331, United States,
- US Address 2: 9585 Bolsa Ave, Westminster, CA 92683, United States
- UK Address: 134 Montreal House, Surrey Quays Road, London, SE16 7AQ
One of the listed addresses, 13618 Gain St, Pacoima, CA 91331, United States is a residential area that is also claimed by yet another dubious website. In fact, one of the websites lists exactly the same addresses as listed by Homesizy.com.
Interestingly, they even share the same phone number which could indicate that they are a part of the same network of scammers who are using the same address and contact information.
The Different Phone Numbers
Talking of phone numbers, I noticed that they list two different numbers on their website. On most pages, they list +1 906 661 1572 as their number.
On another page, however, they list +1 (540) 517 5695 as their phone number. Both numbers are from different states than where they indicate they are located. Confusing customers with different numbers is common with scammers to make it hard for customers to reach out.
Copied Content
When I searched for a phrase I found on their About Us page, I was stunned to see it appear on many other sites. I searched this phrase: “We keep track of ever-changing trends, yet we are not afraid to look back for inspiration”
The same phrase appears on many other dubious websites. This further solidifies our claim that Homesizy.com is likely to be part of a larger syndicate of scam websites. They reuse the same content over and over as they hardly want to spend a lot on quality content as the website is only meant for a short while.
Bottom Line
In conclusion, there is a high possibility that Homesizy.com is a scam. The red flags are too many and telling to ignore. The webshop seems to share addresses with other dubious websites and it's likely the business does not operate from the UK or US. Most of the reviews I found outside the website are mostly negative and there is suspicion of manipulation of reviews.
There are two phone numbers provided can also be found on another dubious website. This is confusing and makes it hard for customers to reach out as highlighted by some customer complaints. Some of the content is duplicated and does little to boost customer confidence. Caution is urged when shopping at Homesizy.com as your products are likely to take a while to arrive and the quality has been questioned by customers. There are more dependable online marketplaces out there than Homesizy.com.

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
