The time for sandals is over: autumn is coming and you need sturdy shoes! Windy shop operators also know this and offer expensive branded shoes at the lowest prices.
We have a copy of the brand “Give us your money, we won’t give you anything” in the online shop “salomonschuh.online”:

As you can see, discounts of over 80% are granted without exception, in every category. The site itself is presented in German and tries to inspire trust with statements such as “We are a professional online shop in the world and are committed to offering you the best products.” (which is not entirely successful due to the awkward wording ).
How do you recognize a fake shop?
The first step should always be to take a look at the imprint. We want to do that here too:

Well. That was nothing then. Unfortunately there is no contact address in the imprint. In order to contact us using a form, you first have to register as a customer there, but there is no address there either.
You should also pay attention to the language! That fake shop, for example, shows a sloppy translation; sometimes the buttons are in a different language, for example when placing an order:

Many online shops promise on their sites that payments are possible via PayPal or by invoice, but during the payment process you notice that only credit cards are allowed, as is the case here:

And that's the real trap: the fraudsters want the credit card details !
So we have several points by which you can recognize such a shop:
- the prices are unrealistically low
- the German is incorrect
- there is no contact address
- Payment is only possible by credit card
Now let's take a quick, deeper look: How can you determine for yourself where a page comes from ?
To do this, you can use a so-called Whois domain query , which is what we did on this site:

Except for German sites (thanks to GDPR, the information is not visible), under “Registrant Org” you usually see the person or company that registered the site.
In this case we see “WhoisGuard, Inc.” there.
“WhoisGuard” is an organization based in Panama where you can hide your real identity in exchange for money: instead of the real owner, you only see the name of this organization.
A reputable online shop certainly wouldn't do this!
You can also see that the URL of the page was purchased namecheap.com You can buy internet addresses there for as little as 88 cents, which isn't exactly reputable for a shop.
Conclusion
The online shop mentioned above is a phishing trap .
The owners of the site hide their identity, but based on the buttons in the shop one can assume their true origins are in Italy.
The prices are unrealistically low, payment is only possible by credit card, and there is no contact address.
We therefore advise against ordering goods from this shop!
