Those are fake websites pretending to sell cheap merchandise.
Any site that advertises merchandise cheaper than the official manufacture's website is a fake site shipping gosh awful crappy knock-offs or simply collecting cash and not even bothering to ship fakes.
The pictures on the site look like the real merchandise because those pictures ARE of the official merchandise. Those pictures were stolen from the official manufacture's website. If you receive anything at all, which is doubtful, it will not resemble those pretty pictures at all.
The payment options say it all, Western Union, moneygram and bank transfer. The credit card icons are just there for show, that site does not accept credit cards, only anonymous cash payments.
Western Union and moneygram do not verify anything on the form the sender fills out, not the name, not the street address, not the country, not even the gender of the receiver, it all means absolutely nothing. The clerk will not bother to check ID and will simply hand off your cash to whomever walks in the door with the MTCN# and question/answer. Neither company will tell the sender who picked up the cash, at what store location or even in what country your money walked out the door. Neither company has any kind of refund policy, money sent is money gone forever.
Your bank can only get your money back if there is money left in the scammer's bank account. Scammers know this and will immediately withdrawal the money you transferred. No money in the account means absolutely no possibility of you getting your hard-earned cash back.
In all seriousness, when something goes wrong, what will you do? Send an email that is ignored and blocked? Send chat requests until you are ip banned? Call internationally and speak fluent Chinese?
The UPS, TNT and DHL icons are there only to take up space, that site only ships with EMS, the Chinese post office, good luck getting the "tracking number" they give you to work on the EMS website. You will need even more luck trying to contact EMS when your tracking stops and your "package" is lost somewhere.
You could then be really lucky, your "package" is discovered, seized by "customs" and all you need to do is pay even more money via Western Union or moneygram to the "custom's official" who uses a free email address just like that site has a free email address as its contact information.
Free email addresses are easy to open and close completely anonymously.
That site is NOT listed on the one official UGG website so it is definitely selling fake UGGs or simply collecting cash and not bothering to ship fakes.
Is the info up to date?
If the info was posted years ago, its probably not trustworthy
Are there ads?
Ads are paid for, so if there is money invested in the website it probably isn't a scam
Does it look like someone took they're time to set it up or just threw it together in a day?
If it is very detailed and informative, its probably trustworthy.
You can also google some other reasons but those are the main ones i consider . I hope i helped!
Typical cheap Chinese SCAM sites.
You can find out whether a site is based in China by doing a basic WHOIS search. If it is, then you will *not* get legitimate merchandise. It will be badly made copyright violations that won't look at all like the stock photos they use on their Web sites.
Here is the list of official UGG online retailers:

Both sites are hosted out of China.
As such, EVERYTHING they sell would be cheaply made counterfeits.
So I'm not very good when it comes to all the techy internet stuff. I just wanna make sure these webcams aren't just trying to steal my money and whether or not its safe to order off them with my credit card. I want a new pair of toms & uggs and they're so much cheaper on here so that's why I really want to make sure before I order them, thanks!
