Moderate RiskStatus

Coveragestrong3 of 4 applicable core capabilities

Verdict

Bakker.com is a long-established online garden centre with real checkout flows, but customer complaints about dead or damaged plants and slow support responses are a genuine service risk.

Bakker.com presents itself as an online garden centre ("Jardinerie en Ligne") with a 4.5/5 customer rating claim, secure payment messaging and delivery from €4.90, and it runs a normal shopping cart with "Ajouter au panier" and "Voir mon panier" controls. The domain is very old — the registrable domain is 11,189 days old — and the browser threat feed returned no threat warning, with a valid encrypted connection. Against that, independent review evidence describes customers receiving withered, damaged or pest-infested plants, deliveries that arrived damaged or never arrived, and one reviewer saying dead plants were not taken seriously for almost two months. The site's captured pages also show no direct contact email, no phone number and no operator postal address, which makes resolving those problems harder. This is not a fake shop or a technical threat; it is a real retailer with a documented customer-service and product-quality problem, which places it in the Moderate Risk band.

You can shop here, but treat it as a moderate-risk purchase. Before ordering anything expensive or time-sensitive, look for the site's own contact and returns information and keep your order confirmation, because the captured pages do not show a direct email, phone number or postal address. If a plant arrives dead or damaged, complain in writing immediately and keep the correspondence, since one reviewer reported a nearly two-month delay before being taken seriously. Pay by a method that gives you chargeback rights rather than an irreversible transfer.

01 · Investigation Brief

Investigation Brief

Bakker.com presents itself as an online garden centre ("Jardinerie en Ligne") with a 4.5/5 customer rating claim, secure payment messaging and delivery from €4.90, and it runs a normal shopping cart with "Ajouter au panier" and "Voir mon panier" controls. The domain is very old — the registrable domain is 11,189 days old — and the browser threat feed returned no threat warning, with a valid encrypted connection. Against that, independent review evidence describes customers receiving withered, damaged or pest-infested plants, deliveries that arrived damaged or never arrived, and one reviewer saying dead plants were not taken seriously for almost two months. The site's captured pages also show no direct contact email, no phone number and no operator postal address, which makes resolving those problems harder. This is not a fake shop or a technical threat; it is a real retailer with a documented customer-service and product-quality problem, which places it in the Moderate Risk band.

What customers report about plants and support

Independent review evidence describes a recurring pattern of product-quality problems. One source reports many complaints about plant quality, with some customers receiving withered, damaged or pest-infested plants, and deliveries that were sometimes damaged or never arrived. A separate reviewer states they were sent plants that had been dead for around two weeks and that their email about it was not taken seriously for almost two months.

Those complaints are made harder to resolve by the site's own captured pages, which show no direct contact email, no phone number and no operator postal address. A shopper who receives a dead plant therefore has no obvious first-line channel on the page itself to request a replacement or refund.

Technical checks are clean; the risk is commercial, not malicious

There is no technical threat signal here. The browser threat feed returned no threat warning and the saved TLS check found a valid encrypted connection. One antivirus result marked the URL as suspicious, but that comes from a saved, stale observation from a single engine and is not corroborated by the other services, so it should not be read as proof of malware or phishing.

The domain itself is long established — the registrable domain is 11,189 days old — which is consistent with a real, operating retailer rather than a throwaway storefront. The concern is therefore operator and customer risk: product quality and the difficulty of reaching support, not a malicious payload or a credential-harvesting page.

Why the score is 62

One customer complaint on a public review site: "Aan de andere kant waren er ook veel klachten over de kwaliteit van de planten, waarbij sommige klanten verdorde, beschadigde of door ongedierte aangevreten…". Coverage remains separate so missing sources cannot be mistaken for clean results.

Evidence behind this classification

  1. 01The registrable domain is 11,189 days old, consistent with a long-running real retailer rather than a new throwaway storefront.
  2. 02The browser threat feed returned no threat warning and the saved TLS check found a valid encrypted connection.
  3. 031 antivirus result marked the URL as suspicious. This comes from a saved antivirus observation rather than a new submission, so treat the detection as real but confirm the timing.

If this is a scam — what it means for you

What happens when you actually order

A visitor adds a plant to the cart using the "Ajouter au panier" control and then reviews it via "Voir mon panier", which is a standard same-site checkout flow with no cross-domain redirect or off-site payment hop visible in the captured evidence.

If this is a scam, how it works

The evidence-backed path

Each stage below is preserved from the grounded analysis and linked to saved evidence.

  1. The evidence-backed outcome after ordering is the risk: a reviewer reports receiving plants that had been dead for around two weeks and waiting almost two months for their complaint to be taken seriously. That is a delivery-and-support exposure, not a payment-diversion or malware exposure.

You can shop here, but treat it as a moderate-risk purchase. Before ordering anything expensive or time-sensitive, look for the site's own contact and returns information and keep your order confirmation, because the captured pages do not show a direct email, phone number or postal address. If a plant arrives dead or damaged, complain in writing immediately and keep the correspondence, since one reviewer reported a nearly two-month delay before being taken seriously. Pay by a method that gives you chargeback rights rather than an irreversible transfer.

06 · Your Next Move

Your next move

Proceed with caution

The evidence is mixed or incomplete, so treat this site as unverified until you can confirm who runs it.

  1. Analyst recommendation

    You can shop here, but treat it as a moderate-risk purchase. Before ordering anything expensive or time-sensitive, look for the site's own contact and returns information and keep your order confirmation, because the captured pages do not show a direct email, phone number or postal address. If a plant arrives dead or damaged, complain in writing immediately and keep the correspondence, since one reviewer reported a nearly two-month delay before being taken seriously. Pay by a method that gives you chargeback rights rather than an irreversible transfer.

  2. Treat bakker.com as unverified

    Do not enter credentials or send money until you have independently verified the business.

  3. Verify the business through independent channels

    Check the company's social profiles, registry records, and search for recent news or reviews that are not hosted on the site itself.

  4. Never use irreversible payment methods

    Crypto, gift cards, wire transfers, and cash apps offer zero buyer protection. Use a credit card or PayPal if you must pay.

  5. Share your experience

    If you have additional context, drop a comment below or post on the MalwareTips forum.

07 · Safety FAQ

Safety FAQ

Common questions, answered directly from the scan data above — so the answers reflect the saved verdict and evidence in this report.

Is bakker.com a scam or is it safe?
There isn't enough evidence yet for us to give bakker.com a confident verdict, so treat it with caution. The domain is 30 years old. Until it can be independently verified, don't enter passwords, card details, or send money, and confirm the company through channels you find yourself rather than links on the site.
Is bakker.com safe to use?
bakker.com has a Safety Score of 62/100 (Moderate Risk). Analysis coverage is strong at 83%. Do not trust blindly; analysis may be limited.
Has bakker.com been flagged by antivirus engines?
Yes. 1 of 92 antivirus and blocklist engines in our malware network flagged bakker.com as suspicious in the saved analysis from October 4, 2026. A single "suspicious" vote is a weak signal on its own, so it is weighed alongside the other checks rather than treated as a confirmed threat.
Is bakker.com on any phishing or malware blacklists?
No — bakker.com is not currently on the major browser blocklist feeds that Chrome, Safari, Firefox, and Edge rely on. Note that blocklists can lag behind brand-new scam domains, so "not listed" is reassuring but not a guarantee on its own.
How old is the bakker.com domain?
bakker.com is 30 years old, registered on March 6, 1996 through IONOS SE. A multi-year registration history is one of the stronger signals against a scam, though it's never a guarantee on its own — established domains can still be misused.
Does bakker.com have a valid SSL certificate?
Yes — bakker.com presents a valid TLSv1.3 certificate issued by Let's Encrypt · YE2, valid for another 63 days. Important caveat: SSL only encrypts the connection between you and the site — it does not verify who runs it. Almost all scam sites now have valid SSL too, so a padlock alone never means "safe".
Where is bakker.com hosted?
bakker.com resolves to an IP operated by Shopify, Inc. in CA (Content Delivery Network). Hosting location alone doesn't make a site good or bad — but hosting that doesn't match a brand's claimed country, or that sits on networks known for abuse, is one of the many signals we weigh alongside the verdict above.
How often is the bakker.com report updated?
This report is a record of the scan run on October 24, 2026, and the verdict reflects that point in time. Scam sites change fast — they can go live, get flagged, or vanish within days — so if you believe something about bakker.com has changed, MalwareTips staff can run a fresh scan that re-checks every signal from scratch and republishes an updated verdict.

Conclusion

Bakker.com presents itself as an online garden centre ("Jardinerie en Ligne") with a 4.5/5 customer rating claim, secure payment messaging and delivery from €4.90, and it runs a normal shopping cart with "Ajouter au panier" and "Voir mon panier" controls. The domain is very old — the registrable domain is 11,189 days old — and the browser threat feed returned no threat warning, with a valid encrypted connection. Against that, independent review evidence describes customers receiving withered, damaged or pest-infested plants, deliveries that arrived damaged or never arrived, and one reviewer saying dead plants were not taken seriously for almost two months. The site's captured pages also show no direct contact email, no phone number and no operator postal address, which makes resolving those problems harder. This is not a fake shop or a technical threat; it is a real retailer with a documented customer-service and product-quality problem, which places it in the Moderate Risk band.

Recommended actionYou can shop here, but treat it as a moderate-risk purchase.
