FakeshopAI automatically checked Fish Candy (fish-candy.de) on 2026-07-08 for typical fake shop characteristics. 31 check points were evaluated, covering operator details, legal notices, payment methods, technology, domain history and reputation. The individual findings are listed below.
Shop facts
Who runs this site?
Warning signals
- DNS configuration The domain's email configuration is incomplete: either the MX or the SPF record is missing - a permanently operated shop normally maintains both.
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.
- Trade register Commercial register number and register court are stated and the entry was confirmed online - there is therefore a genuinely existing, registered company behind the shop.
- 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 Ottawa, CA and therefore outside the EU and the USA - enforcing your rights there is considerably harder in a dispute.
- SSL certificate The connection is encrypted; the current certificate was issued on 25 June 2026. 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.
- Security headers The server sets the common security headers - the site is technically cleanly configured. On its own this says nothing about the provider's trustworthiness.
- Legal pages Terms and conditions, right of withdrawal and privacy policy are linked on the site - the mandatory distance selling information is therefore present.
- Payment methods The shop names PayPal, credit card, Klarna, Apple Pay and Google Pay as payment options - so you do not have to pay in advance to order here.
- 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.
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.
