Does anyone know if the website WWW.JORDANSHOECORNER.COM is a scam?

[Curious]

The website has a logo at the bottom saying it is VeriSign Trusted but all shoe's are available in the same size and shipping is free. It also says they except Paypal but when trying to purchase the item the option is not available.
You actually can google the website!

I could not even get this up on whois.com
How on earth do kids find these scam sites.
Could you answer?
Edit - add details?
Is this through a facebook or twitter link?
I can't even find their site on google.

Whatever you are doing, you need to stop.
You are being too trusting to not immediately know this is a fake site that sells crap from china made by 10 year old kids.
Since counterfeiting is illegal, these sites shut down, but if you get your item it will fall apart as soon as you touch it.

You mean http://www.jordanshoescorner.com, and yes, of COURSE it's a scam. It looks exactly like every other cheap Chinese scam site out there.

A basic WHOIS search shows that the site is based in China and has only been open for a few months. There's your proof that it's a scam.

Fake
1 - Nike does not allow ANY online retailers but Nike.com to use ANY Nike trademarks (Nike, Jordan, Air Jordan, Air Max, Foamposites, etc, etc) anywhere in their domain name. Any site you find using these terms is actually breaking the law -- it's called trademark infringemenet
2 - that site is a Chinese fake site http://whois.domaintools.com/jordanshoescorner.com
3 - that Verisign logo is a dead link. If this were a legitimate site, you would click on the Verisign logo to be taken to the Verisign website. The fact it doesn't link means it's not VeriSign approved

100% scam.

http://www.jordanshoescorner.com 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, moneygram, paypal 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.

Paypal can only get your money back if there is money left in the scammer's paypal linked bank account. Scammers know this and will withdraw your money immediately, no money in the account means no possibility of refund for you.

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.

The "logo" of VeriSign is a copied/pasted picture, not a link to the real VeriSign site. A legit website selling real Jordans would have a real VeriSign linked icon not a fake picture like that site does.
