welcome back to our Channel today we're
0:04
taking a closer look at lincoln. shop
0:06
and believe us there are a lot of
0:08
reasons to be cautious we'll walk you
0:10
through the red flags and why we think
0:12
this site is suspicious let's dive
0:16
in first let's talk about the social
0:19
media links on lincoln. shop if you
0:21
check out their website you'll see
0:23
social media icons at the bottom but
0:25
here's the problem these icons don't
0:27
take you to any business related social
0:30
instead they lead you straight to the
0:32
generic homepages of Facebook Instagram
0:34
and other platforms if you want to see
0:37
this for yourself just click those icons
0:39
on their site this is a common trick on
0:42
scam sites and it's definitely something
0:46
for next up the email address they
0:49
provide support at delbury dcom is
0:51
another red flag why because it's not
0:54
even tied to their website's domain
0:56
legitimate businesses usually have email
0:59
addresses that match their domain name
1:01
seeing a random email like this is a
1:03
common practice among scam sites so it's
1:06
something to be cautious
1:08
of Lincoln shop has also failed to
1:11
provide a contact phone number or a
1:13
detailed physical address as we've
1:15
pointed out in previous videos
1:17
trustworthy online stores typically make
1:19
it easy to find this info while they may
1:21
at these details in the future the lack
1:24
of transparency right now combined with
1:26
all the other warning signs makes this
1:32
now let's talk about those prices
1:34
Lincoln shop is listing products at
1:36
unrealistically cheap rates something
1:38
you only tend to see on scam websites if
1:41
a deal seems too good to be true it
1:43
usually is be wary of these kinds of
1:46
offers as they often lure people into
1:51
scams another issue is the website's
1:53
design and content we've noticed that it
1:55
matches other problematic sites if a
1:58
website's design looks over familiar and
2:00
not unique that's often a sign that it's
2:05
Network and if you were hoping for a
2:07
simple return process think again
2:10
Lincoln shop has a confusing return
2:12
policy that could make it nearly
2:13
impossible for customers to get a full
2:15
refund this is yet another tactic used
2:18
by scam sites to avoid giving money back
2:23
customers finally we've found several
2:26
other websites with similar patterns to
2:27
Lincoln shop and they've all received
2:29
complaints customers report issues like
2:32
never receiving their orders or having
2:34
difficulty getting refunds which further
2:36
raises suspicions about the legitimacy
2:40
site to sum it up lincoln. shop is
2:44
packed with red flags from useless
2:45
social media links and suspicious email
2:47
addresses to confusing return policies
2:50
and dirt cheap prices we strongly
2:52
recommend steering clear of this site if
2:55
