Is kyribelle.com Legit or a Scam?
Author: Adam Collins
Kyribelle is an online store that focuses on Fashion products. But with many online stores scamming people, many ScamAdviser users have wanted to know whether kyribelle.com is a legit store or a scam. Well, join us as we analyze and review the site.
Kyribelle claim they are a “global online store that delivers the latest fashion apparel for you! Thousands of products in different styles are waiting for you!”
Who are the owners?
On the “Contact us” page, the site claims they are owned and operated by another company; Kentesh Ltd. This is a registered company in the UK whose offices are at Signature, 15 St. Helens Place, London, England, EC3A 6DQ.
You may assume that as this is an actual registered company, nothing could go wrong. Well, this is a common trick used by scammers who register an overseas shell company to shelter hundreds or thousands of dubious webshops.
Interestingly, Kentesh is registered by a Chinese national which could indicate that Kyribelle is part of a large syndicate of dubious Chinese webshops.
The return policy
There comes a time when ordering products online when due for one reason or another, you have to return them. But many scammers make it hard for people to return the products by complicating the process.
With Kyribelle, customers have to pay their own return shipping costs, which at times, can be more than the cost of the products if the products arrive from China.
Again, this overlaps with what we see with scammers who make it hard for buyers to return defective, substandard, or wrong products.
Huge discounts
They say when the deal is too good, think twice. With Kyribelle, they seem to be having huge discounts on products and extra discounts when you buy more products.
This is a common trait used by many scammers who entice unsuspecting buyers with hugely big discounts and offers that are hard to resist.
The customer reviews
Though the company was started in 2021, we could not find many reviews online. The only reviews we could find were on ScamAdviser with an overall rating of 1 star which is very low.
Most of the customers are complaining that the email does not work while others say the products ordered did not arrive.
There are social media links at the bottom of the site but they don’t link to their social media handle. It looks like a cheap trick to convince buyers that they are legit as many won’t bother clicking on the links.
Bottom Line
Overall, Kyribelle has a lot of red flags that are hard to ignore. The huge discounts and additional offers sound too good to be true. The site is registered under another company, Kentish Ltd., which is suspected to be a shell company created by Chinese owners.
There are not many reviews online, and the ones we could find are not positive. Many buyers are concerned that the contact details do not work or that the company does not reach back. There are no social media pages even though there are social media buttons at the bottom of the site. In conclusion, there are a lot of characteristics that overlap with what we see with scams. Caution is urged while shopping at Kyribelle.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
