Company Review
The identify of the website owner has been hidden. This may be done for a valid reason as spammers use this information to email website owners. Unfortunately is also makes identification of the owner difficult. We prefer if the website does show his true identity.
Webshop Review
This website was set-up recently. As a result, we advise you to really take the time to check this site out before you interact with it. You can use our blog post "How to recognize a scam" to do so. Scam sites are often very young. They are removed from the web after a couple of months as too many consumers leave negative reviews and social media comments. Till that time, they will try to scam you.
We noticed that this website has a very high Alexa score, meaning it has a lot of people visiting the site every month. It is however also a very young website (less than 1-year-old). It may be a completely legit website, offering a unique service but we tend to be careful as scammers also know how to get a lot of traffic to their new site. This can be done by buying cheap traffic, manipulating the Alexa rank technically or by high-jacking browsers of unaware computer users (for example for crypto mining), We would, therefore, be cautious.
Technical Review
The website is being hosted in a country with a high level of fraud and corruption according to the International Banking Federation. The risk of doing business with this kind of countries is therefore higher.
We identified an SSL certificate meaning that the data shared between your browser and the website is encrypted and cannot be read by others. SSL certificates are always used by legit and safe websites. Unfortunately scammers increasingly also use SSL certificates so it is no guarantee that you are visiting a reliable website (source: Xolphin).
We checked if the website is optimized for search engines like Google and Bing. This does not seem to be the case. Several items are missing which most websites implement to make sure they can be found by search engines. We consider this suspicious. Why would a website not want to be found via search engines? This is usually the case if they do not want to be found by police authorities or brand protection agencies.
