Current business owner & they are falsely accusing of scamming. They called me a gangster and a scammer? How is this website still up and running? These people are professional criminals preying on online businesses.
Scamadviser.com is a website that extorts money from business owners so they don't try to scare customers away from your business. They are located in Russia.

Best Site.

No need to spend $1000+ to review your website. Only this site is enough. I checked my website and I found everything OK. Best place.

They put our site on their site without our permission and took reviews from our facebook page. Then they do not let companies reply! Does not tell the whole story. Total scam. They got my review taken down from another site because they claimed I was not a customer. It is total lies and garbage. Please do not believe a thing that's on their website. Also they scammed me out of money saying to Paypal them money to get my company off their site. They took the money and ran! If not a scam what is? They prey upon online businesses.

Scam advisers
April 24, 2017

A asked scam advisers for a review on Guarantee tickets, They gave them a favourable review. Let me tell you Guarantee Tickets are biggest load of scum bags. They ran off with my money for match tickets for Chelsea v Southampton.
Under no circumstances use these scum bags. And as for scam tickets they are in the same league is Guarantee tickets. Even Guarantee tickets write their own reviews regarding their website. Beware of any website that doesn't have a contact number or email address. And by the way the tickets were a present for my grandson
Thank you again Guarantee Tickets and Scam Tickets. BEWARE!

Total Scam
January 30, 2017

Total Scam, Adsense Scam, and Blacklisted by Yandex. Basically, the site is a scam that seems to be designed to enable websites to be given a favourable rating by them if they pay scamadviser.com some amount (donate, as they say).

Who are these people?
December 26, 2016

Ridiculous rating on their own criterion. After several emails answered once and have not solved anything, they wanted all the company's data to change the rating, but it's been 45 days and have not yet responded. Their rating is based on things often wrong and this damages the companies. Our company will initiate legal action immediately to Scamadviser.com

I like it and use it for any non amazon related purchases. I buy tons of trainers and there are many fake nike sites out there and it has helped about 4 times. I also use sitejabber, trustpilot and google safebrowsing. A lot of the complaint I have read seem to say that scamadviser is not fair for websites that hide their owners... I have to ask why would you hide your details if you are selling legitimate stock?
