sbcskincarestore.shop is a copy of the UK skincare brand SBC Skincare, run by an undisclosed operator on a 152-day-old domain and built on a known clone-shop network's storefront.
The site sells face and body care products under the SBC Skincare name, with the brand's logo, catalogue and "over three decades" heritage claim, but the domain was registered only 152 days ago and the only contact address is support@sbcskincare.com — a mailbox on the real brand's domain, not on the store's own. Its pages are built on the storefront of a known brand-clone shop network, and independent checks describe it as part of a scam network with no connection to SBC Skincare. No company name, registration number, phone number or postal address is published. That combination of impersonation and hidden ownership puts it in the High Risk band.

- Strong4 independent antivirus families reported an adverse result. This comes from a saved antivirus observation rather than a new submission, so treat the detection as real but confirm the timing.-2 pts
- ModerateOne public warning on a scam-warning or security site: "This site copies SBC Skincare's online store of face and body care products, but it's part of a known scam network and has nothing to do with SBC Skincare."-2 pts
- MinorThe domain is 152 days old while the About copy claims over three decades of brand history.
- MinorNo company name, registration, phone number or postal address is published, and independent research could not identify who runs the site.
What pushed the score up

Lost money or shared details on sbcskincarestore.shop? Do this now
Act quickly: the first hours matter most for a chargeback.
- Call your bank or card issuer now
Ask them to dispute the charge or open a chargeback; the sooner you act, the better your odds. Card payments can often be reversed. Bank transfers and gift cards are harder, but report them to your bank too. Crypto payments usually cannot be reversed: report the wallet address and transaction ID to the exchange you sent from.
- Change any password you entered
If you entered a password on sbcskincarestore.shop, change it there and anywhere you reused it, and turn on two-factor authentication. Keep screenshots, order confirmations and messages as evidence.
- Report the site
Reports help get scam sites taken down faster and warn other people.
- Report the domain to its registrar
Dynadot Inc. takes abuse reports at abuse@dynadot.com (+1.6502620100). Include the address and what happened.
- Ignore anyone offering to recover your money
"Recovery" services or agents who contact you, or ask for a fee up front, are almost always a second scam aimed at victims. Your bank's dispute process and the official reporting services never charge a fee in advance.

01 · Investigation Brief
Investigation Brief
The site sells face and body care products under the SBC Skincare name, with the brand's logo, catalogue and "over three decades" heritage claim, but the domain was registered only 152 days ago and the only contact address is support@sbcskincare.com — a mailbox on the real brand's domain, not on the store's own. Its pages are built on the storefront of a known brand-clone shop network, and independent checks describe it as part of a scam network with no connection to SBC Skincare. No company name, registration number, phone number or postal address is published. That combination of impersonation and hidden ownership puts it in the High Risk band.
A brand name borrowed, an operator hidden
The storefront carries the SBC Skincare logo, the brand's product lines and a hero banner reading "Natural Beauty, Award-Winning Care", and its About copy claims the brand has been "a trusted leader in the beauty industry for over three decades". The domain itself is 152 days old, so that history cannot be the store's own.
The only contact address found is support@sbcskincare.com, which sits on the genuine brand's domain rather than the store's own. Independent checks state plainly that SBC Skincare does not run this copy and that the site is part of a known scam network.
No company name, registration ID, phone number or postal address appears on the captured pages, and independent research could not establish who runs the site. Real shops name the company behind them.
Clean encryption, but a saved detection record and a threat-list entry
The connection is properly encrypted with a valid certificate and the browser threat feed returned no warning at capture time, so nothing suggests malware is served from the page itself. The hosting IP also carries no abuse reports.
Against that, a saved antivirus observation records four engine families returning adverse results, including a phishing label, and independent research reports the domain is already listed on a public threat list and shares its kit and hosting with thousands of other copied stores. Those detections are a stored observation rather than a fresh submission, so timing should be treated as unconfirmed.
Why the score is 28
The store's only contact address is on sbcskincare.com, the domain of the brand its own name copies, and its pages are built on the storefront of a known brand-clone shop network.

What we observed
Visual context from the captured page
Header shows an "SBC SKINCARE" logo with a botanical emblem, plus navigation Shop All, Skincare, Bath & Body, Collections, Fragrance, Lifestyle, a search box, Account and cart icons. Top announcement bar reads "Up to 70% Off Selected Items Shop Sale" with a dismiss control. Hero shows yellow SBC Ginseng & Yuzu body scrub and body wash bottles with lemon halves on a green background, headline "Natural Beauty, Award-Winning Care" and a "Shop Now" button. Overlapping hero text: a second, larger headline ("...uplift & cle... with our botanical-led body c...") is rendered on top of the main hero copy, indicating a template/layout collision.

If this is a scam — what it means for you
What happens if you shop here
Every "Shop", "Shop Sale" and "Shop Now" button leads to same-site catalogue pages, and the Cart link opens an on-site checkout on this host — the point where a buyer would enter name, shipping address and card details for a store whose operator is not identified anywhere.
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.
The pricing is built to convert: a banner advertises up to 70% off selected items and product cards show uniform 65% cuts, such as $26.86 down to $9.40. A "Subscribe & Save Moisturising Gels" category advertises a recurring-purchase offer whose billing terms were not captured.
The site does publish a privacy policy covering collection of name, email, shipping address and payment information, plus returns and shipping pages — a complete-looking policy set that matches the clone template rather than proving the shop is genuine.
Do not buy from sbcskincarestore.shop. If you want SBC Skincare products, order from the brand's own official site; this store copies its name and catalogue while hiding who runs it and routing contact through the real brand's mailbox. If you have already paid, contact your card issuer about the charge and change any password you entered at its checkout.

The completed checks from this saved scan are detailed above.
sbcskincarestore.shop was registered very recently when this review was saved and was already flagged. Freshly-registered domains are disproportionately used for scams, and a young domain with active threat signals warrants extra caution.
Contact Verification
Saved contact details can help identify the operator. Their presence supports traceability; it does not prove the business is trustworthy.
- No contact email uses the site's own domain.
- No phone number listed on the captured page.
- No operator postal address visible on the captured page.
Domain & Encryption
Cloudflare DNS is used by legitimate and scam sites alike, so it does not identify who runs the site.
Report this domain to its registrar: send the address and what happened to this contact.
