Shop facts
Who runs this site?
Warning signals
- PayPal support PayPal is not mentioned as a payment method on the pages checked; a payment route with buyer protection is therefore not recognisable.
- Security headers The server sets only some of the common protections. Present: protection against embedding in other sites (X-Frame-Options). Not set: enforced encryption (HSTS), a content security policy (CSP) and protection against file type confusion (X-Content-Type-Options). On its own this is not evidence of fraud.
- Payment methods Only a single common payment method is recognisable; secured alternatives are missing.
In the shop's favour
- Trusted Shops The domain is listed as a certified shop in the Trusted Shops member directory - the provider has passed an external audit and is listed there by name.
- WHOIS According to WHOIS the domain has been registered for several years, or its registration data has been unchanged for years - an indication of a permanently operated presence.
- Domain age The domain has existed for around 26 years and therefore has a long operating history - fake shops usually disappear again after a few months.
- DNS configuration The domain has a complete email configuration with MX and SPF records - the shop can therefore actually send and receive email under its own address.
- External reputation feeds The external security databases queried hold no warning about this domain - neither for malware nor for phishing.
Further checks
- Imprint The shop has a legal notice with reachable contact details (email or phone) - in a dispute there is a named contact to address a complaint to.
- Server location The site's server is located in Nuremberg, DE and therefore within the EU/US area - a legal area in which claims against the operator can be enforced if necessary.
- SSL certificate The connection is encrypted; the certificate was issued by Encryption Everywhere DV TLS CA - G2 and last renewed on 21 August 2025. Anyone can verify this themselves - 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.
- Fake shop lists The domain does not appear on any of the fake shop warning lists checked - warning lists lag behind newly created shops, however, so this is no clean bill of health.
- Legal pages Terms and conditions, right of withdrawal and privacy policy are linked on the site - the mandatory distance selling information is therefore present.
- Redirects The address does not redirect to a third-party domain - the shop is actually operated under the address you opened.
- Social media presence The linked social media profiles are reachable - the provider can therefore also be checked outside its own website.
- Contact data plausibility The contact details given are plausible: the email address belongs to the shop domain and the phone number is correctly formatted - fake shops mostly use free webmail addresses here.
- Template/clone fingerprint No known fake shop has the same template fingerprint as this site - a mass-produced kit of the kind fraud networks use is therefore not detectable.
- Content depth The site has an extensive structure with many subpages - that points to a product range grown over time rather than a quickly assembled sales page.
What we could not verify
These checks returned no result – for example because the site blocked our request or a registry was unreachable. This is explicitly NOT a suspicion: it only means we lack the basis for a statement here.
