Alleyseo is a website that claims to be selling clothing items, especially outdoor gear, at low prices. The website was created in July 2020 and has an Alexa rank higher than 1.8 million, which shows that it is not very popular. The WHOIS data does not show the registrant’s details such as name, location and address. Therefore, the website is effectively being operated anonymously.
Some of the text on the website is in German, which suggests that the website may be targeting a German audience.
The products being sold on the website are not original, as the same products can be found on numerous other websites. The trustworthiness of most of these websites is questionable.
The pricing of the products is also suspiciously low, as they seem to be less than half the prices of the same products on competitors such as eBay.
Alloyseo’s website is extremely suspicious as the entire content seems to be copied from various sources. Firstly, the text and images on the About Us page have been lifted from the websites of legitimate brands such as The North Face and Alpine Trek. Also, the name of a defunct website - Flyhola - has been mentioned instead of Alloyseo. This indicates that Alloyseo may be part of a larger network of related websites operated by the same owners.
The Returns policy page of the website gives the contact information of a site called Joyikline.
Shockingly, Joyikline is an exact clone of Alloyseo and offers the same products. It is extremely suspicious that a company would set up two identical websites with different names.
The Privacy Policy on the website mentions yet another defunct website - Senttea. It also states that the page was updated on 27th September 2018. This is impossible as Alloyseo’s domain name was registered only in July 2020. Therefore, this is yet another indication that the website’s entire content has been copied from various sources.
The PayPal account associated with Alloyseo does not mention any company name. It carries the generic name ‘merchant’, which only makes sense if you consider that the same account is probably being used on multiple websites. Sure enough, the same account was found to be used on Joyikline too.

Scamadviser Verification
The Scamadviser page of Alloyseo has not been claimed by the company.
The contact information provided by Alloyseo is an email address and phone number. It was found that the phone number is not unique as it is being by a few other websites too. This is yet another indication that Alloyseo is part of a network of websites.
The phone number carries a USA’s +1 country code and an 877 area code, which means that it is a toll-free number. Therefore, Alloyseo is trying to give the impression that it is a USA-based company. However, this does not really seem to be the case.
Though the website does not link to any social media pages, Alloyseo has two separate Facebook page that were created a week apart in August 2020. The page information shows that the pages are being operated from China, Hong Kong and Macau. Therefore, there is reason to believe that Alloyseo is, in reality, a Chinese operation. Both pages are also running ads in German.
No reviews for Alloyseo could be found. The Scamadviser page for the website has a few comments in German where the users are discussing that Alloyseo seems to be a scam.
There is an extremely high likelihood that Alloyseo is a scam.
It has a Trust Score of 1% on Scamadviser, indicating that it is exceptionally risky to shop on this website. You can read more about Alloyseo’s Trust Score here.
The products and prices on the websites do not seem to be genuine. The same products are available on several other websites which means that the image could be copied. Further, the prices on Alloyseo are less than half compared to competitors, which is a red flag that it might be a scam.
The entire content of the website seems to be copied. Some of the content is copied from the websites of brands such as The North Face and Alpine Trek. The rest of it seems to be taken from a number of different defunct and cloned websites. The pattern suggests that Alloyseo is part of a large network of online stores that may all be scams.
The only real contact method provided is email. The phone number given is a toll-free USA number. There is no company name or address specified (not even a return address). The phone number was found to be used on a number of different websites which shows that they are all related to Alloyseo.
Alloyseo has two separate Facebook pages that are not mentioned anywhere on the websites. Not only is it suspicious for a brand to have two pages, the page information shows that both of them are being operated mainly from China. Therefore, Alloyseo is actually a Chinese operation that is trying to pass itself off as American or German.
