Class sales with huge discounts – only today! In particular, this attracts a supposed Salzburg company on the internet. However, customers are now looking through their fingers, because the store and probably the goods are not at all.
“With a heavy heart I close my company that I have built up with the support of my husband” – With these moving words, a supposed sports dealer wants to draw attention to the internet. With discounts of a maximum of 80 percent on expensive wheel clothing and bicycle accessories, the lady wants to give his customers the chance to get real bargains. Only: the sports shop and the lady are neither in real nor in digital life.
Problem with false matters
The false sports company with Salzburg address has upset people in recent weeks. Dozens of victims have ordered the online store at www.weersalzburg.at, as the fraudsters call the online store. They did not get the goods at all or only in less quality.
Alarm signals: typos, AI generated images
Reinhold Schranz of the Association for Consumer Information (VKI) knows the case. “This is such a driven case of dropshiping.” Traders deliver directly from China, without a warehouse in Europe. The ordered items are often cheap goods. “Behind the products often lies a large deception of consumers, this often leads to criminal law,” says Schranz.
In the case of Weber Salzburg, the alarm bells must be shrill. In the case of images generated by AI, too high discounts, typing gliders on the website must be irritated and poor printing information must be irritated. As an addition, only 1300 followers can be found on the social media pages, almost completely from the Arab world.
Search for the needle in the haystack
The supposed family business is now even known. However, it is not easy to get the vessel from the backers. In the absence of correct data, the search for the fraudsters is like a search for the needle in the haystack.
Such crooks are annoying for bicycle trade. “Such companies get more,” says Sibylle Wagner of the Salzburg bike company with the same name. She can still score with advice and service, but internet trade is already dominant in clothing and accessories. “The money in the bank is spent quickly and the faster.”
