1/2/10

Appears legitimate website, comes near top of any google search. Offers discounted Ugg boots but they are counterfeit! Fake! Did not initially see all the reports about their dodgy dealings and got conned in to purchasing from them. Have contacted my credit card company, but will have to wait 30 days for any sort of possible resolution. DONT USE

I'll just add a bit of weight and another $#@! To this one. It's yet another phony site with a giveaway URL and a few clues which tell us to go do business elsewhere. But aside from these, and frankly if you aren't already suspicious you won't notice them anyway, the site is a pretty good attempt to look authentic.

Genuine UGG Australia graphics are used to make up the front page banner and there are more genuine images stolen from the UGG Australia website further down the page.

The claim "All Boot Are Original From UGG Australia Factory!" at the top of the page is entirely phony, and the first clue that this is an Asian site is the obvious typo right there where you can't miss it.

Further down the page, the site first becomes schizophrenic and ultimately develops multiple personalities, with some images overstamped "uggshops.biz" and others overstamped "uggshops.cc". By the time it gets to the end of the page it's become uggsbootsstore.com. And if that doesn't give the game away surely nothing will. All these addresses belong to other counterfeiting sites. A further giveaway is the EMS logo at the end, as EMS is an Asian carrier which is not used by the authentic UGG Australia company as it doesn't ship from China anyway. You can be confident that any store using EMS is selling counterfeit goods.

The further you go, if you know where to look, the more clues there are. But for the average trusting customer, who has likely rarely bought online anyway, there's little hope of spotting the fraud. There's no mistaking the purpose of this one, it's there to trick you by outright lies and camouflage and its sole intent is to get your money.

There are hundreds if not thousands of counterfeit UGG sites out there but not all are so devious as this one. The fakers are getting more daring with their reproductions of the genuine site and it's really important for you to tell your friends about the dangers of buying from these places so that more people don't lose their money too.

More information on counterfeiting can be had at:
http://www.uggaustralia.com/retailStores/counterfeit.aspx

uggaustralia.com is the sole legitimate site for the manufacturers of UGG® Australia products. And as you will see if you read the information there, any other site with either "ugg" or any of their style names in the address is phony. You will also find a list of their authorized online and high street retailers at that site, and you are most strongly recommended to use them if you want to buy this brand.

Lastly, if you see a price that's too good to be true, it is. Most people get caught trying to get the cheapest possible product, and in the end, assuming they get anything for their money at all, what they get is what they paid for, no more.
