3. Common Red Flags of Scam Websites
With so many fake websites out there, it’s essential to recognize scam warning signs before purchasing.
Prices That Are Too Good to Be True
Aftermarket parts prices are commonly much lower than OEM prices, but it varies depending on the part itself. If a price seems unbelievably low, it’s likely:
- A counterfeit or knockoff product
- A no-ship scam
No Real Contact Information
If an online store doesn’t provide an email contact form, that is a major red flag.
No Customer Reviews or Fake Testimonials
Make sure you can find verified reviews from real customers. Stores with lots of parts won’t have reviews for everything, but top products should have them. Read them to see if they look like they were written by real people.
