Watch for scam sites

I’ve ran across several in recent months, especially for powder and primers, more than in the past 10 years combined. Several sites for powder valley, all but the original are 100% scam sites, as well as reloading depot USA. The copy sites for powder valley have even stollen the real websites logo, and mirrored their site map.

2 major patterns I’ve seen with scam sites that makes it easier to see them.
1. If the store has pretty much everything in stock, it’s a scam. Even without massive shortages no place ever has 90% or more of their products fully stocked, it just doesn’t happen.
2. Prices for stock all on sale, if your cart looks like it’s been discounted 30%-50%, check a few other things you know the normal price of. If they’re discounted too it’s probably a scam, also take a look at the check out page. Scam pages almost always only take e transfers like Venmo, PayPal friends and family, or even crypto, but won’t take credit cards, it’s a scam.
