  • Is Prosetta.co.uk PS5 a scam?

    A lot of scam sites have come pretending to be selling the most wanted product which is the PS5. Knowing how people are so obsessed with idea of having one alot of people would obviously buy without checking the legitimacy of the website. Reading reviews certainly helps you before making the mistake of buying from scam sites. This review will be helping you identify some of the scam signs on the website and you’ll decide if you can trust this online store or not.

    Scam signs

    Age

    Prosetta.co.uk is an online store that was registered about 8 days ago. This is a bad sign as it is too new to be trusted. You can only start trusting an online store that is more that 6 months old. A newly registered online store has biased reviews from customers as the owner would be wanting to attract more customers by saying good things about the store.

    Contact details

    The website doesn’t include the stores contact numbers. Only legit online stores would give their full correct contact details for effective communication with customers who might be having queries.  The given physical address is also fake. This is another red flag.

    Prices

    The prices of the products are too good to be true. The disc drive version is priced at £449.90 and the digital counterpart is going for £349.90. these prices have had people asking about the legitimacy of this online store.

    Method of payment

    As we all know online stores usually accept payments through PayPal and credit payment. Prossetta.co.uk only accept bank transfer which does not allow refund. This is quite dodgy stuff as it says there’s a refund policy but how do they refund when they can’t get your money back.

    Verdict

    In conclusion, I wouldn’t recommend purchasing anything from this online store as it has so many red flags. If you have had any encounter with this online store please feel free to leave a comment below telling us about the experience you had with them. Stay woke!

  • Vaveluz.com :beware of scam

    Vaveluz.com is an online store that has been grabbing a lot of attention as it seems like it’s selling products for “free”. It has been selling necklaces, bracelets, rings and watches. These are accessories to upgrade your look. A lot of things on this site seem off that one would see that it maybe a fake store but this would take deep insight and research. I’m sure many of you reading this review have come across this online store and you’re not sure if you should trust this online store or not. We will let you know about the red flags on this website and you will decide on your own whether you can trust it or not.

    This factor really does make a difference as it helps you to know if you can trust the store or not. If an online store has been registered for less than 6 months you definitely can not trust it. The reviews on the site might be biased and coming from the owner of the store just to attract customers. In this cases vaveluz.com was registered 28 days ago. This is a bad sign as it is too new to be trusted.

    Prices

    Talking about the popular Argenti Watch  or the vaveluz smart watch which is said to be going for $299.00. But surprisingly when you are buying and about to make a purchase it claims that it is going for $52 but on display it is $299.00. when you Google about these watches online you’ll find out that they range from $5 to $50. They are not as pricey as they are made to be on the website. This is however strange and raises some doubts regarding the store.

    Contact details

    The given physical address is fake. When you go on Google maps with this address the area has no sign of being a place where vaveluz.com is located. The given phone number is also fake . Only legit stores would give their correct contact details for effective communication with customers and wouldn’t try to cover their tracks by giving wrong address or numbers. This is a bad sign.

    Verdict

    You did well by first going through reviews before purchasing anything from this store. I hope this review helps you decide whether you can purchase from this store or not. If you have had any encounter with this online store please feel free to leave a comment below telling us about the experience you had with them.stay woke!

This store is said to be located in Canada and has so many suspicious things on its website. A lot of people are very hesitant to buy this bike from this store and they have been asking if it’ll be safe to buy from it.

    SCAM SIGNS

    The first suspicious thing is that this online store is only selling the Shiko electric bike and nothing else. How can an online store sell one product ? They may be selling this bike and other things privately but why would they do that if they are genuine?

    The price for this bike is too good to be true. The bike is costing about $60. Electric bike usually cost a lot of money because they’re not just ordinary. This might be a bait to lure customers into ordering from their website instead of buying from stores where the bikes are expensive. This is very typical of scam sites. You can get scammed by being given a counterfeit bike or their motive might be to get hold of your credit card details and start deducting money from your account without your consent.

    Theres no physical address for this online store and there’s also no contact number and no email address. This is very dodgy as they may be hiding their contact details to cover their tracks and never be found by anyone. The whole website is not very transparent. The owners details and the shop details are not fully known.

    Conclusion

    We are trusting that this review was helpful. You’re adviced not to trust Shikobike.store. it’s a scam. If you’ve had an encounter with this online store please feel free to leave a comment below telling us about the experience you had with them. Stay woke.

  • SmeYou.com review : scam exposed

    Appearances are very deceiving it takes having a closer look at some website to see if they’re legit or scams. Just by going through the website randomly you won’t get enough information to determine the legitimacy because the images can be very deceiving. We noticed red flags on the smeyou.com website that we would like you to know about before you entrust this online with your money.

    Scam signs

    Age

    Smeyoi.com is only a few days old as it was created on the 25th of January 2021 making it too u kutiinew to be trusted. You should never trust an online store that is less than 6 months old. This because in less than 6 months the store won’t have enough reviews neither will you know how it operates.

    Prices

    The prices are too good to be true. This is very typical of scam sites. They will advertise their products with very low prices to attract more customers on to their website this way they get more victims. It’s really unfortunate that many people actually fall for the low prices.

    Contact details

    Smeyou.com did not put it’s contact number and it’s physical address on the “contact Us” section. The only contact information is the email address which is sherry@cukter.com which not even in relation with the domain name. Legit stores would be transparent enough to give their full correct contact details.

    Verdict

    Smeyou.com can not be trusted at all. It’s clearly a scam site that shows a lot of dubious activities as evidenced by the plagiarism on the website. Most of the content on the site have been copied from other scam sites.

    Red flags on the website

    Age

    According to whois.com this online store is less that 6 months old which makes it’s too new to be trusted and not reliable. You should never trust an online store that is less than 6 months old as you are not sure about how they operate and obviously they don’t have true reviews yet on their website.

    Prices

    We all know how low prices always lure us into buying from these online stores. This is one thing scammers can always use as a bait and get more victims. The prices for all the products in this store are too good to be true. They’re not to be trusted.

    One thing that got most people talking was the prices for the PS 5 console which is insanely low according to the website.

    Contact details

    The given physical address is a lie. On the exact given location there’s company called JB motors and no sign of this store. The given email address does not have a professional address like most professional email addresses and this obviously raises some concerns about the store.

    Conclusion

    This online store can certainly not be trusted. It is a scam. If you’ve had any encounter with this online store please feel free to leave a comment below telling us about the experience you had with it. Stay woke.
