On macbooks-billiger.de, Apple products such as MacBooks, iPhones, Apple Watches and iPads are offered at unrivaled prices. How does that work, you ask? The answer is “Fraud!”
Our cooperation partner Watchlist Internet warns about the online shop macbooks-billiger.de!
You have to pay for the goods in advance, but you will not receive delivery.
Anyone who thinks about buying a new product from Apple will quickly realize that heavily discounted offers on current iPhones, iMacs or MacBooks are hard to find on the market. It is precisely this fact that the fraudulent operators of macbooks-billiger.de are trying to exploit.
The fake shop, which is very reminiscent of the official Apple website not only because of its product range but also its design, offers large price reductions on all models.

Do not buy here, because more detailed research clearly shows that it is a fake shop and you will lose your money.
The imprint
At first glance, the imprint appears tidy and does not differ from the imprint of trustworthy sites. However, if you check the information using a simple search in your search engine, you will quickly notice any deficiencies. The specified company name belongs to a different company than the commercial register number or the VAT identification number. Such inconsistencies certainly do not occur with a trustworthy shop.
The team photos
A photo of the alleged employees can be found on the website under “About Us”. If you do a reverse image search, you will find that the images have been copied from another website and pasted onto macbooks-billiger.de to inspire trust. None of the people pictured are really behind the fake shop.
The pricing
The pricing on the website should immediately make you suspicious, as all products are heavily discounted and are therefore offered well below the usual market prices. For example, the brand new iPhone Xs Max with 512 GB of storage is available for €1210.99. It's not exactly cheap, but compared to the real Apple shop it's an incredible 440 euros cheaper. The same applies to MacBooks, iPads, Watches and iMacs, which offer discounts of up to 1,400 euros.

Price reductions of this magnitude on the entire range can be found almost exclusively in fake shops. This should encourage you to make a quick purchase without thinking too much about it. So don't let yourself be blinded and check online shops you don't know as carefully as possible before placing an order.
The payment
You are offered several payment methods for payment via the website's online presence. You can supposedly pay with credit card, PayPal, Giropay or Sofortüberweisung. If you put goods in your shopping cart and decide to place an order, you can only choose between PayPal and advance payment. When you choose PayPal payment you will receive the following error message:

In order to complete the order, you must pay in advance. We strongly advise against this, because a shop that promises en masse payment methods but then only offers payment in advance is not trustworthy.
If you have already paid, inform your bank immediately. This can still hold up the transfer under certain circumstances. However, once the money has been transferred to the recipient, it is usually lost.
