Is this online store legit?

Posted at: 2015-03-04 
This site does not honestly look legit. It does sound too good to be true. The payment methods are indeed commonly used by scammers as it can be hard to trace the recipient. The site name actually sounds like a phrase many African scammers would use; referring to their victims as "my friend" and such sounds like something they would say. Looking on the actual site, I noticed it was not professionally organized. The FAQ on the first page lacked proper capitalization. Such details already suggest a hastily built scammer site, possibly one from a foreign country. While Google yields no scam warnings, I would still feel very hesitant about buying from this store. Perhaps attempt a very small purchase; through away $10-$20 to see if it is a scam. If you don't get your item, or you are asked for more money, it probably is; do not give any more money. If you get something, still be wary; it could be a little more elaborate scheme. Ultimately, proceed at your own risk. Your best bet, unless you really want to get something from this shop or your really want to know more, is to simply stay away, and perhaps report it to the authorities for investigation.

100% scam.

That is a fake website 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 and moneygram, 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.

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.

I would not trust my hard earned money to this scammy looking website. I'm sticking with Amazon and ebay for product variety, good prices, good delivery, and good return policy in the event of product damaged during shipment or product manufacturing defects. I've had good results from ebay and Amazon, so they both have proven track records with me. For Amazon, I use the link below because it help me to quickly find the item I'm looking for at a good price discount.

My friend told me & my roommate he ordered from this online store tht had cheap stuff. Like the more you order the more discount they give you. It seems to good to be true. Like they have a lot of good stuff but the payment methods made me wary. Western union, moneygram,& credit card but for extra charge. The website is okmyfriend.com Anyone ever bought from there?
