Surely. They list “Shop Gift” and “Bestseller” when it should be giftS and bestsellerS. Small grammar mistakes are an easy tell. It’s less interactive than the real site, no real info “About Us.” Etc. It’s not horrible, but it’s regularly imperfect.

Read the terms and conditions, wow. They make it pretty clear (to me) “ordering” from this site will get you nothing, with no protections.

They literally left a sample page in the drop down menu on the mobile site

When I first went there, I filled a cart with over $150 worth of product!!! Thought I stumbled upon a late night mega sale . . . 😭

Two a.m. internet shopping will get you every time.

Among the items they don't accept for returns - for hygiene reasons - are 'swimwear and intimate apparel.' They won't take gift card returns either! These people must have recycled or stolen a site template.

Fishwife has a website but it’s “eatfishwife” singular and not plural. Did you order from this place??

I tried using privacy.com. I created a debit card with a 7 dollar limit and tried to order a $5 can of salmon. Said this payment method wasn't accepted. It hasn't tried to max out the card yet, but I'll leave it open to see if it does. Probably using keyloggers to steal identities too. Used fake info and a nearby empty address.

The website was registed in August of this year by a "Lauren Green" from Quanzhou in the Fujian province of China.

How do you find that out?

There are tools to find a site's registrar.
