Skimys is a pet-supplies shop with a very low trust score and customer reports of non-delivery and obstructive refunds.
Skimys presents itself as a pet-supplies store with a professional-looking e-commerce layout and a standard cart, but independent research found it listed as a suspicious shop with a very low trust score, and a customer review describes receiving a flimsy, unusable item and having to pay return shipping to an address that sent the package back. The site also shows no phone number or operator postal address on the captured page. These are the hallmarks of a high-risk e-commerce operation rather than a trustworthy retailer.

Lost money or shared details on skimys.com? 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 skimys.com, 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
GoDaddy.com, LLC takes abuse reports at abuse@godaddy.com (480-624-2505). 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
Skimys presents itself as a pet-supplies store with a professional-looking e-commerce layout and a standard cart, but independent research found it listed as a suspicious shop with a very low trust score, and a customer review describes receiving a flimsy, unusable item and having to pay return shipping to an address that sent the package back. The site also shows no phone number or operator postal address on the captured page. These are the hallmarks of a high-risk e-commerce operation rather than a trustworthy retailer.
Customer reports and trust signals point to a high-risk shop
Independent research lists skimys.com as a suspicious shop and notes that reports in this class often describe payment being accepted but the item never arriving. A separate source gives the site a very low trust score of 0. These are adverse external findings, not just missing details.
A customer review describes buying an animal-hair remover glove that arrived thinner than tissue paper and unusable. To get a refund, the buyer had to pay return shipping that cost more than half the glove's value, and after two months the package came back with an unknown address. This is a concrete account of a misleading product and a refund process that left the customer out of pocket.
Technical checks are clean, but contact transparency is missing
The browser threat feed returned no threat warning and the saved TLS check found a valid encrypted connection, so there is no indication of malware or a hijacked connection. A saved antivirus observation marked the URL as suspicious, but that result is stale and should be treated as a real but dated detection rather than a current malware verdict.
The captured page shows no phone number and no operator postal address. While some small shops omit these, combined with the adverse research and the customer report, the lack of verifiable contact information makes it harder for a buyer to resolve a problem or seek a refund.
Why the score is 28
3 independent sources carry complaints or warnings about this site, including: ".com is listed as a suspicious shop. Reports in this class often describe payment accepted ... Most common outcomes after checkout: 1. No shipment: order…". 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 experiences when ordering
A visitor can add items to the cart and proceed through a standard checkout, as the site shows a cart link and a professional storefront layout. After payment, the adverse research indicates the most common outcome in this class is that the order is confirmed but the item never arrives.
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 an item does arrive, the customer review shows it may be far below the expected quality, and obtaining a refund can require paying return shipping to an address that results in the package being returned to the sender, leaving the buyer without the product or the money.
Do not order from Skimys. The site has a very low trust score, a customer report of a misleading product and a refund process that cost the buyer money, and no verifiable phone number or postal address. If you have already paid, contact your payment provider promptly to dispute the charge and keep all order and shipping records.
