The provider's own description, taken verbatim from the shop's pages – no statement about whether the goods exist or are ever delivered.
FakeshopAI automatically checked Vivobarefoot (vivobarefoot.com) 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
Warning signals
- Imprint 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.
- 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.
- Legal pages One mandatory legal text is missing from the site: the right of withdrawal. The other mandatory details are linked.
In the shop's favour
- PayPal support PayPal is named as a payment method - a payment route with buyer protection is therefore available, through which money can be reclaimed if goods are not delivered.
- 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 23 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
- 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.
- SSL certificate The connection is encrypted; the current certificate was issued on 22 May 2026. Encryption says nothing about the operator's trustworthiness, though: a fake shop gets it free of charge too.
- Payment methods The shop names PayPal and Klarna 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.
- 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.
- 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.
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.
