Dalerop Review: A Legit Site or a Scam?
Author: Adam Collins
Dalerop is an online store that sells fashion apparel. They have hoodies, bottoms, and jumpsuits for boys and thousands of products in different styles. As they were one of the most searched sites on ScamAdviser, we decided to check it out and see if it’s a scam or a legit online store.
New website with no reviews
Having been started in Dec 2021, Dalerop is a relatively new website. According to ScamAdviser, the site does not receive a lot of visitors. But the main concern is that there were no reviews on the website. With most of their products being clothes and accessories, you would expect a few reviews.
But there were no reviews, both on the site and other trusted websites like Sitejabber and Trust Pilot. This does not help build confidence with new customers, as there is no point of reference.
The different contact information
With online stores or any other business for that matter, having similar contact emails is considered the norm. Delarop gives service@Dalerop.com as their main contact email.
But when it comes to intellectual property rights, the site gives a completely new email with a different domain; Ip@whosebIllIng.com. The email is very common with many other dubious websites which use the same. It’s usually found under the Interllectual Property Rights section.
Again, on the return and exchange page, there has been a key change in the email address. The site claims should be channeled to service@elebbu.com, yet another email with a different domain from the previous two.
This overlaps with what we see with most scammers who usually give different numbers and emails for different services.
Error-ridden contnte
Most of the text also appeared to have a lot of grammatical errors, something that a serious online store should not tolerate. The errors appeared repeatedly across multiple sections.
Social Media Presence
Dalerop has an online presence with an active social media page. The page was started in December 2021 and has little to no reviews or comments despite the page posting a lot. There are also no reviews on the page.
I could not find any social media buttons on the site which is highly unusual.
Checking the Page Transparency information shows that the page is managed from Philippines and China. This is commonly seen with scam Chinese websites.
Dalerop appears to be a Chinese-run website whose authenticity and legitimacy can be hard to prove. Most of the characteristics overlap with what we see with most scams especially webshops from China. Be cautious when dealing with them.

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
