Our cooperation partner Watchlist Internet warns about the fake shop bikestore24.net!

When looking for a new bike or accessories, consumers are currently increasingly coming across bikestore24.net. The shop is nicely set up and the prices are tempting.

But be careful – it’s a fake shop ! Anyone who purchases here and transfers money in advance will not receive any goods delivered and will lose their money.

It's peak season for the bicycle trade and the cash registers are ringing accordingly. The fraudulent operators of bikestore24.net also want to take advantage of this. In their supposed online shop they offer bicycles and bicycle accessories at the best prices. The shop is attractively and clearly designed and the prices are well below those of the competition.

If you buy from bikestore24.net, you will experience a nasty surprise because the goods are never delivered and your money is gone.

Reviews about bikestore24.net

One of the first steps before ordering from an online shop you don't know should be to search for reviews. For example, if you search for “bikestore24.net?” or “bikestore24.net experiences” in your search engine, you will now find numerous negative reviews, all of which indicate non-delivery and loss of money. You should definitely not order here.

If you can't find any ratings or reviews for a new shop, you should also be careful, because fake shops often disappear after just a few negative reviews and only exist as long as nothing negative can be found about them.

Low prices

The prices on bikestore24.net are all heavily discounted. Regardless of whether products are listed as new or not, a discount of almost 30 percent is the standard. If you compare the prices with those of the competition, you will notice that the pricing is unfortunately unrealistic. Fake shop operators, like those at bikestore24.net, repeatedly try to persuade interested parties to make an ill-considered purchase by offering low prices.

Payment in advance?

On the homepage of bikestore24.net you are offered several payment methods. Klarna instant transfer, credit card payment and PayPal are presented to you here in addition to payment in advance. When placing an order, payment in advance is suddenly only possible.

The remaining payment methods have either disappeared or do not work. Such an approach is not trustworthy because when you make a transfer, your money ends up in the fraudsters' account and you do not receive any goods.

What else does bikestore24.net reveal?

A check of the imprint information shows that the company does not exist in the form specified. The managing director is fictitious, the telephone number is not assigned and the VAT identification number is also invalid. All of these are warning signs that show that not everything is going well here.
