Found this site the other day www.asiascopes.com and the prices are awesome. So awesome you wonder if it's a scam. But they obviously put alot of work into their site. Has anyone ordered from them? They take (FRAUD ALERT) and (FRAUD ALERT) says they have an agreement with Indonesia

Looks like a scam must be a scam

How can I check whether a store is genuine?

question - who is this


The first step is to do a WHOIS lookup on the domain name. There are several tools on the Internet that will allow this. A favourite is http://whois.domaintools.com. Warning signs to look out for are:


The domain name has only recently been registered.
The actual registrant details are hidden or disguised using a Domain Privacy Service. Why would a genuine company want to hide behind such a service?
A full contact address for the domain registrant is not given. Perhaps only a PO Box number is provided.
The domain has had several changes of nameservers or IP addresses in quick succession

So I can order US made products that I can't order from the US without paperwork directly from Indonesian without paperwork.... Interesting.
 
If you look closely, their product descriptions are ripped directly of B&H.

Would not touch with a 10 foot pole.

Another good option is to check their social links.

In this case the facebook and twitter links at the bottom of the page seem to go . . . nowhere.

One year site registration, among so many other things. They real committed to their long-term operation.
Edit: Even better.. they only accept wire transfer or CC. Sign me up! :rolleyes:
Edit2: Oh, this is nice. last year they called themselves delscope.com (also a scam). AND, they failed to completely edit that name out of their current site! Awesome!

In case it's not clear what I mean... AVOID!!!
