Company Evaluation
The owner of the website is hiding his identity. Spammers use this information to promote services to website owners. Some website owners therefor chose to hide their contact details. However, it can also be misused by scammers. Our algorithm gives a high rating if the identity of the website owner is shown.
We noticed that jobs are being offered where you get paid to click on ads, to fill in survey forms or to view online commercials. These kinds of jobs are often meaningless. The advertiser does not want to have clicks from people who are not really interested in his products or services. Likewise, surveys are meant to be filled in by people interested in a certain topic. In many cases companies offering rewards for these kind of activities are scams. They are often caught by the advertising networks quickly. In other cases, the company offering the jobs simply does not pay-out. Check out our blog post: "Pay to Click Scams" for more information.
Webshop Evaluation
In our Analysis we always check the Tranco ranking. In this case it was low. A low Tranco ranking means that the website has relatively few visitors. For a new website this is logical. The same is true for a highly specialized website. However if the website claims to be a large corporate or popular site, than warning flags should be raised.
Legit websites often reside on servers with many other safe websites. In this case however we identified several unreliable websites hosted on the same server as the website. This may be a negative signal and as a result we lowered the review of wikilancer.com. To see which other websites are hosted on the same server, please check the "Server" tab lower on this page.
We have detected that the website may offer cryptocurrency-related information, products and/or services. We consider these kinds of services to be high-risk for consumers. Even experts in cryptocurrencies have trouble distinguishing legit digital currency services from frauds and scams. We recommend you to be very diligent in checking website offering crypto-related services before you invest or use their services. Check How to check if a cryptocurrency site is legit or a scam. to learn more.
The owner of this website has registered this domain name for a period longer then one year. This means he plans to continue his website for the foreseeable future. We increased the Trust Score of wikilancer.com as a result as most scammers never renew their domain name once the scam is public knowledge.
This domain name has only been registered recently. This means that the website is actually quite young and few if any consumers have had time to leave reviews or social media comments. It is therefore best to check this website thoroughly to make sure the website was not set-up by a scammer. Please check out our article "How to recognize a scam".
Technical Evaluation
We always check which other websites are registered by the same company the website is using. In this case we discovered that the registrar is facilitating a high number of websites that have a low to very low review score. This may be a coincidence but it may also be caused by lax "Know your customer" processes at the domain registration bureau. The trust score of the website has been reduced.
This webshop is offering payment methods that can be considered reasonably safe such as credit card and Paypal. These companies usually offer the option to get your money back in case the merchant does not deliver or the product has been broken during transportation. However, no payment method gives money back all the time. Make sure you file a complaint in time and be careful with the limitations your credit card or payment methods have set. Our blog post on Safe Payment Methods discusses all payment methods offered.
Anonymous payment methods have been found on this website. This may help you as a consumer to remain anonymous but it is also "protecting" the merchant. It is often very hard to get your money back from a payment method which is anonymous. We recommend using the major credit cards and Paypal and other "money-back" payment providers if you have any doubts about the legitimacy of the website. Check our blog post on "Safe Online Payment Methods".
We found a valid SSL Certificate. An SSL certificate is used to secure communication between your computer and the website. There are different levels of SSL certification. A free one is also available and this one is used by online scammers. Still, not having an SSL certificate is worse than having one, especially if you have to enter your contact details.
This website appears to be hosted by a bad-reputation company. Accessing a website hosted by such a corporation can result in sluggish pages, no dependability because the website can be pulled down at any time, insecurity of any data you provide across such a platform, and so on. To ensure the best online experience and the security of your data, we urge that you only interact with websites hosted by reputable companies.

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
