Nine-day-old shop uses Mercado Libre branding and a refund-limiting policy while hiding its operator
mercomaxx.shop presents itself as an online store with a shopping cart and product listings, but the branding does not match the domain. The page title says "Mercado Libre" while the top-left corner shows "商谷跨境pro系统" (Shanggu Cross-border Pro System), a cross-border storefront system unrelated to that brand. The domain is only 9 days old, the site publishes no contact email, phone number or postal address, and its own terms reserve the right to refuse or partially refund returned goods. Two antivirus engines have flagged the URL as suspicious. The combination of brand mismatch, hidden operator, refund-limiting terms and a brand-new domain places this site in the High Risk band.

Investigation Brief
mercomaxx.shop presents itself as an online store with a shopping cart and product listings, but the branding does not match the domain. The page title says "Mercado Libre" while the top-left corner shows "商谷跨境pro系统" (Shanggu Cross-border Pro System), a cross-border storefront system unrelated to that brand. The domain is only 9 days old, the site publishes no contact email, phone number or postal address, and its own terms reserve the right to refuse or partially refund returned goods. Two antivirus engines have flagged the URL as suspicious. The combination of brand mismatch, hidden operator, refund-limiting terms and a brand-new domain places this site in the High Risk band.
Brand mismatch and no way to identify the seller
The page title claims "Mercado Libre", but the visible top-left corner of the site shows "商谷跨境pro系统" (Shanggu Cross-border Pro System). A legitimate Mercado Libre storefront would not carry a Chinese cross-border storefront system label, and a legitimate cross-border storefront would not borrow Mercado Libre's name. This mismatch is the first sign that the storefront is not what it claims to be.
The captured page lists no direct contact email, no phone number and no operator postal address. A real shop that expects customers to pay for goods normally provides at least one reliable way to reach the seller. Here, a buyer who pays has no documented channel for support, returns or complaints.
Refund-limiting terms on a domain registered nine days ago
The store's own terms state that it reserves the right to refuse a refund or offer only a partial refund based on the condition of returned goods. This is the kind of language used by fake shops to make refunds difficult or discretionary after payment. It does not prove that any specific customer was refused, but it shifts the risk of a bad purchase onto the buyer.
The registrable domain is only 9 days old. A brand-new domain is not proof of fraud by itself, but combined with the brand mismatch, the missing contact details and the refund-limiting terms, it fits the pattern of a short-lived storefront rather than an established retailer.
Clean encryption does not offset the operator risk
The saved TLS check found a valid encrypted connection and the browser threat feed returned no threat warning. Those results mean the connection is encrypted and no blocklist entry was found at the time of the check; they do not vouch for the seller or the delivery of goods.
Separately, two antivirus engines marked the URL as suspicious. That detection comes from a saved observation and should be treated as a real but time-limited signal. It adds to the adverse picture rather than replacing the operator-level concerns.
Why the score is 28
The store's own terms reserve the right to refuse a refund or offer only a partial refund based on the condition of returned goods. Coverage remains separate so missing sources cannot be mistaken for clean results.

If this is a scam — what it means for you
What a visitor actually encounters
A visitor arriving at the site sees a shopping cart element labelled "Carro ( 0 )", indicating that the storefront is set up to take orders. The cart is the point at which a visitor would be asked to pay for goods.
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.
If a visitor pays and later wants to return an item, the store's own terms allow it to refuse a refund or offer only a partial refund based on the condition of the returned goods. There is no published email, phone number or postal address to escalate a dispute to.
Do not enter payment details on mercomaxx.shop. The site borrows the Mercado Libre name while showing an unrelated cross-border storefront system, publishes no contact details, and uses refund terms that let it refuse or reduce refunds. If you have already paid, contact your card issuer or payment provider promptly and keep records of the order and any correspondence.
Web research findings
Independent findings for mercomaxx.shop, including public complaints, named review sources, registration records, and look-alike-domain evidence. A missing result is shown as unverified, never converted into a clean bill of health.
No independently sourced scam reports or credibility records were found for mercomaxx.shop. That is common for new or low-traffic sites and does not clear the site.
