Shop facts
Who runs this site?
Trust seals on this page
A genuine trust seal is clickable and leads to the provider's certificate – a test the seal providers name themselves. We run it automatically on every check.
- ePrivacyseal / ips – only claimed in the text, no seal embedded
We check the embedding, not the content of the certificate: a linked seal may be expired or issued for a different domain.
Warning signals
- Imprint A legal notice is linked, but it provides no usable contact details or was itself unreachable.
- WHOIS According to WHOIS the domain has been registered for less than two years; there is no longer operating history.
- Fake shop lists The domain is listed on official warning lists for fraudulent shops (1 list hits) - consumer protection bodies or authorities have already recorded it as a fraud site.
- Domain age The domain is only one month old; fake shops are typically online for a short time only.
- Trust seal check The “ePrivacyseal / ips” seal is shown as a logo only, without a link to the official provider - its authenticity cannot be verified. A genuine seal is clickable and leads to the certificate at the issuer; the seal providers themselves point this out.
In the shop's favour
- Server location The site's server is located in San Francisco, US and therefore within the EU/US area - a legal area in which claims against the operator can be enforced if necessary.
- 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.
- Security headers The server sets most of the common protections. Present: enforced encryption (HSTS), protection against embedding in other sites (X-Frame-Options) and protection against file type confusion (X-Content-Type-Options). Not set: a content security policy (CSP). On its own this says nothing about the provider's trustworthiness.
- Legal pages The site links the privacy policy. Terms and conditions and a right of withdrawal are only required when selling to consumers and were not checked here.
- 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.
- External reputation feeds The external security databases queried hold no warning about this domain - neither for malware nor for phishing.
- 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.
Further checks
- SSL certificate The connection is encrypted; the certificate was issued by Google Trust Services and last renewed on 11 August 2026. 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.
- Redirects The address does not redirect to a third-party domain - the shop is actually operated under the address you opened.
- 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.
- URL structure clone The URL structure shows no conspicuous overlap with other shops we have checked - an indication that the site does not come from a clone series.
- Country coherence Country of the responsible entity, VAT ID and legal details are consistent - the statements about the company's registered office do not contradict each other.
- Operator cluster The site shares no operator-specific identifiers with other domains we have checked - there is therefore no indication of a network of similar shops.
- Financial fraud The site shows no financial fraud characteristics or belongs to a regulated financial institution - the typical patterns of investment fraud are absent.
- Scam pattern No known scam pattern was detected - the site does not match any of the fraud patterns documented by us.
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.
