Webshop Review
The Tranco ranking of this website is low. This can be considered low in relation to other websites from the website's country. If you think this website should be very popular, please invest additional time in researching the company as this is suspicious. For a smaller or starting website a low ranking can be considered normal.
We identified a trust mark on this website. This is usually a good sign as a trust mark may only be shown when a company meets certain legal, business or technical requirements. However, scammers know that few consumers actually research what the trust mark stands for. They just show a quality logo. Check the trust mark by clicking on it and making sure you understand what the trust mark checks (and whatnot). If the trust mark cannot be clicked upon, it is probably a scam. If you like to know more about how you can check a trust mark, read our article: "Trust marks - which ones are real and which ones are fake".
The domain name of this website has been registered several years ago. In general, the older the website the more trustworthy it becomes. However, scammers sometimes buy existing websites and start doing their evil thing, so please make sure you check for other scammy attributes as well.
Gift cards are good alternatives for shopping without cash or credit cards, and they also make for great gift items. However, scammers are also using gift cards to perpetrate charge-back and other scams. Scammers sometimes also use stolen credit cards to buy gift cards and resell same to unsuspecting consumers. It is therefore important to only purchase gift cards from trusted brand stores preferably, and not from third-party retailers.
Technical Review
The website is being hosted in a country with a high level of fraud and corruption according to the International Banking Federation. The risk of doing business with these kind of countries is therefor higher.
We have given this website slightly fewer points because it is using an internal review system. An internal review system allows the owner of the website to select reviews and possibly also edit or remove reviews from customers. We think this is less transparent than 3rd party reviews such as Trustpilot, Sitejabber, and ResellerRatings.
The company seems to support payment methods that offer a "money-back guarantee" such as Alipay, Mastercard, Paypal, and Visa. While this money-back guarantee is not 100% secure, it does allow consumers in most cases to get their money back if the product is not delivered or proves to be fake.
The communication between your computer and the server of this online store is not secure as we could not identify an SSL certificate. A Secure Sockets Layer certificate encrypts communication between two points. For online stores communication should always be secured as credit card or other payment information is exchanged between you and the webserver of the online shop. As the SSL certificate is lacking, we rated this website much lower.

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
