Is add2.shop legit or a scam?
A fraudulent 'qifei111' clothing storefront registered just 21 days ago and flagged by Netcraft and Webroot for deceptive retail practices.
These checks passed — but they don't clear the site. A clean antivirus result, valid SSL, and a calm server only mean it isn't hosting malware; they say nothing about whether the business is real. This verdict is based on the site's conduct and content, not a malware detection.

MT Intelligence
The storefront exhibits classic fake-shop behavior by offering unrealistic discounts of over 50% on apparel to lure shoppers from social media ads. Our analysis shows the domain was registered only 21 days ago, which is a major red flag for retail fraud. Security engines including Netcraft and Webroot have already blacklisted the site as malicious. Furthermore, the page lacks any verifiable contact information, physical address, or legitimate business registration, using a generic template instead of a real brand identity.
Web Research Findings
Our live research agent queries scam-report databases, consumer-review sites, news coverage, and general web search for add2.shop, then cross-checks business-registration records and look-alike domain patterns. Everything below is pulled from what it actually found.
- Domain registered approximately 21 days ago (very new, matches recent registration red flag noted in investigation)
- Site title and branding is "qifei111" selling heavily discounted clothing (e.g. jeans and shirts at 50-63% off) via what appears to be a Shopify-like storefront
- Promoted via social media ads (Facebook, Instagram, TikTok) with unrealistic discounts used as bait
- MalwareTips investigation (published July 2, 2026) labels it a fraudulent store; common outcomes are non-delivery, low-quality/wrong items, or no support
- Legal pages (Terms, Privacy, Shipping) described as generic, copied, and non-specific; no real customer support or ownership transparency
- Returns often require shipping back to China at buyer expense; no verifiable business registration or physical address found
- No reviews or mentions on Trustpilot, Reddit, or other major sites; only the recent dedicated scam investigation exists
- MalwareTipsopen
"Add2.shop shows strong signs of being a fraudulent online store and should be avoided. The store markets deeply discounted products, but many buyers report poor-quality items that do not match the ads, or orders that never arrive."
- MalwareTipsopen
"After checkout, victims commonly report one of these outcomes: No delivery at all... A low-quality item that does not match the listing... Policies and “legal” pages appear generic, copied, or non-specific."
