SurplusFun is an established online shop with limited operator transparency
SurplusFun has a functioning shopping flow and a domain that is about two years old, but the captured page provides neither a phone number nor a postal address. Its only cited contact is a generic service@surplusfun.com mailbox. These gaps make the store harder to verify and justify a Moderate Risk rating, although the available evidence does not establish that it is a fake shop.

Investigation Brief
SurplusFun has a functioning shopping flow and a domain that is about two years old, but the captured page provides neither a phone number nor a postal address. Its only cited contact is a generic service@surplusfun.com mailbox. These gaps make the store harder to verify and justify a Moderate Risk rating, although the available evidence does not establish that it is a fake shop.
Customer recourse is the main concern
The captured page lists no phone number or operator postal address, while the cited contact is service@surplusfun.com. This leaves shoppers with limited visible contact options if an order requires support or a dispute arises.
The site displays “Shop Now,” a cart, and an order-tracking link, indicating a conventional same-site retail flow. The only observed cross-domain platform link says “Powered by Shopify”; it is not shown as a separate checkout or payment destination.
Technical checks are mostly clean, but not conclusive
The saved checks found a valid encrypted connection and no Safe Browsing threat warning. These results reduce concern about an immediately detected technical threat, but they do not verify the merchant or guarantee a satisfactory purchase.
One saved antivirus result marked the URL as suspicious, but that observation is stale and provides no specific malicious behavior. The domain has also existed for 742 days, which offers some history but does not resolve the missing operator details.
Why the score is 68
The captured page has no listed phone number or operator postal address and gives a generic service@ contact mailbox. Coverage remains separate so missing sources cannot be mistaken for clean results.

Domain & infrastructure
The plumbing behind the site — who registered it, how it’s encrypted, where it’s hosted, and where it links out. A valid certificate or a calm server doesn’t mean the business is honest — scam sites pass these checks too. Use this to corroborate the verdict, not to overturn it.
