A single serious warning sign can decide the verdict even when other groups look fine. It is listed first among the main reasons.
This provider should be strictly avoided. The check shows clear signs of a fraudulent shop. Some of the checks returned no data. The assessment is based on limited data.
The main reasons
- Warning signLegal notice No legal notice with a proper postal address can be found on this site. For an offer aimed at German-speaking customers this disclosure is required by law.
- Warning signTerms, withdrawal and privacy Several mandatory legal texts are missing from the site: the terms and conditions and the right of withdrawal.
- Warning signComparison with known fake shop templates The site is built from the same kit as 137 confirmed fake shops. Fraud networks deploy such kits in bulk.
- Warning signOther sites on the same server Several already confirmed fake shops are hosted on the same IP address. This is strong evidence that the same network runs several shops in parallel.
- Warning signPayment with PayPal PayPal is not mentioned as a payment method on the pages checked; a payment route with buyer protection is therefore not recognisable.
Do not place any orders here and do not enter any payment or contact details. Check the relevant warning lists and report the shop if you suspect fraud.

Domain
- Warning signDomain registration data According to WHOIS the domain has been registered for less than two years; there is no longer operating history.

Technology
- Warning signEmail setup of the domain Neither MX nor SPF records are configured for the domain. There is no working email infrastructure, even though a shop should be reachable by email.
- Warning signOther sites on the same server Several already confirmed fake shops are hosted on the same IP address. This is strong evidence that the same network runs several shops in parallel.
- Warning signServer protection settings The server applies hardly any of the common protective settings. The site is set up carelessly; on its own this is no sign of fraud.
- Warning signReputation of the hosting provider This domain's hosting provider hosts a disproportionate number of confirmed fake shops.
- No issue foundServer location The site's server is located in Los Angeles, United States. The location says nothing about where the provider is based.
- No issue foundEncrypted connection The connection is encrypted; the certificate was issued by Let's Encrypt and last renewed on 24 September 2026. You can verify this yourself via the padlock icon in the browser's address bar. Encryption says nothing about the operator's trustworthiness, though: a fake shop gets it free of charge too.
Checked, nothing found: Page content (AI analysis), Social media profiles.
