Valentila.com Review: Is it Legit or a Scam?
Author: Adam Collins
As they say, you can never go wrong with the right information. Here, we will give you all the information you need about Valentila.com so as to make an informed decision. Valentila.com has been getting a lot of attention on ScamAdviser.com, hence the reason why we decided to take a look.
Valentila is an online store that sells a lot of products from leather handbags to sweatshirts and more. They also claim to sell “global printed apparel, Cap, Quilt…shoes, canvas, tumbler”, but are they genuine or a scam? Read on to find out more.
Copied Content
Most scammers re-use content over and over as they hardly want to invest in good content. When I searched the following phrase from their “About us” section, I was surprised to see it on many other websites. I looked up: “We keep track of ever-changing trends, yet we are not afraid to look back for inspiration”
The same text appears on many other websites including some which share designs and content with Valentila.com. This could indicate that the webshop is part of a large syndicate of scammers who are reusing content to create several identical websites.
Where Are They Located?
According to the site, they have two locations, one in the US and one in the UK. They claim to be based at 1309 Coffeen Avenue STE 1200, Sheridan, WY 82801, United States, and 24-26, Arcadia Avenue, Dephna House #105, London, N3 2JU, UK.
However, on the ‘Contact Us page, they list yet another location: 4109 Canyon Dr, Amarillo, TX 79110, US as their second store. To the naked eye, all this seems normal, but if you do a deep dive, the cracks begin to show.
In the UK, not only are the offices temporarily closed but the same address is also claimed by many other websites. Plus, there is no such record in the Company House records.
In the location listed in the US, the property is owned by another company according to the information I found on the Wyoming Secretary of State's official website.
The other listed location, 4109 Canyon Dr, Amarillo, TX 79110, US, has also been claimed by another dubious website. This further solidifies claims that Valentila.com may be part of a larger network of dubious websites that operate multiple websites.
There is a high likelihood that Valentila.com is not even based in the US or UK and they are only listing random locations to appear as if they have a presence in both countries. This is common with scammers as they know shoppers will most likely trust a company assuming that the information is true and a few will actually bother to check.
Cheap Prices
I noticed that some of the products listed not only have the same prices but they are also very cheap. For instance, the “Men’s Philadelphia Eagles Darius Slay Jr. Nike Gray Super Bowl LVII Patch Atmosphere Fashion Game Jersey” is quoted at $82.99.
The same goes for $149.99 on the official Philadelphia Eagles Pro shop as well as other outlets. Such huge differences in price could mean that you will less likely get the product delivered and if you do get it, the quality will be wanting.
Valentila.com Customer Reviews
When I searched for reviews, I could not find any on popular review websites like ScamAdviser or Trustpilot. This is despite the domain being registered in July 2022, according to Whois.com.
Interestingly, I found a substantial amount of reviews on Valentila.com with many of them being positive. However, there is no way of validating the authenticity of the reviews. Again, this is common with scammers who want to appear legit, yet they don’t have any reviews outside the site.
Bottom Line
In general, there is a high possibility that Valentila.com is a scam. Most of the characteristics I found to overlap with scam webshops. They seem to have copied content from other dubious websites while their listed locations seem to be fake. In fact, one of the locations is also claimed by another suspicious website.
The prices are too good to be true while the customer reviews are only found on their website. Customers should exercise caution when shopping at Valentila.com. There are more reliable online marketplaces where customers can shop.

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
