Reporting shoesonlineuk.me.uk

I almost purchased from this website but was just very suspicious as to the authenticity of the website and the products.

I read the FAQ's and it appears they've 'lifted' them from another website - it was not relevant to the products they sold.

The address of the website was odd too.

How does one report a website as a possible fake and has anyone purchased from these people?

    They don't sell anything. It's a Russian website which has been set up to phish for banking and personal details in order to commit identity fraud.

    My anti-virus blocked an attempted malware infection from there so I suggest that you run a full scan on your own computer.

  • Hi. Unfortunately I did buy some nike trainers from them. They seem to be a chinese company. They said it was in stock but after a couple of weeks nothing.
    I emailed them to refund me. The next day they said it was sent, coincidentally just after asking for refund, and gave the tracking number. It came after 9 days from China. But was not the ones I ordered. They where not coloured but a off white, more very light grey, all over.
    I have been corresponding with them a couple of times now and they are offering me a partial refund.
    That is where I am now with them but I assume this is what they are doing to most people.
    I will post back if I get refunded.

    Update:
    Agreed a 40% refund with them. But had to wait a month for it!
    Fortunately my daughter liked the white ones better.

    Website also says it takes PayPal but there is no option to use it when ordering. I should had realised then, but it done and dusted now.
    Avoid!!!
