  • Shipt

5/10/21

Been with Shipt for over 2 years, I am happy with it. I am a flexible person so substitution never bothered me. I think one of the reasons is that I only need basic and common stuffs. Shoppers are good at communication and delivery my orders as instructed. The price of Shipt is good compared to Instacart, just a membership free without no additional fees for each order.

Update May 5,2021
Look at how ridiculous it is. The scammers started making a large number of fake reviews on Sitejabber just as they did on Trustpilot. Those fake reviews pop up here several days after I made the first real review here on April 27,2021. I guess they started doing so on May 4 or May 5,2021.

They even created fake accounts using my name, avatar and the screenshots, on Sitejabber, Trustpilot and their own Telegram channel. Look at the screenshots uploaded here. The similar activity was reported by someone else on Trustpilot. Check this out: https://trstp.lt/cTWmW_-Lm. It looks like the scammers would steal everything, including the usernames, avatars, and importantly the screenshots of payments, so as to make the sales look like real.

Tip for consumers:
Gift cards buyers on Telegram, be sure to avoid the scam.

Update May 4,2021.
The scammers changed their avatar. They did it to give a false impression that it's not the scam that was reported publicly. The previous avatar was the one shown in the screenshots of the conversations. Check this video, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L8veSF1LcAo&t=42s

Update May 5,2021.
I found they used the same avatar for the bots to make FAKE reviews on their own channel on Telegram and on Sitejabber. Look at the photos I uploaded here.

A large number of bots are being used to make FAKE reviews on Sitejabber, starting from May 4 or May 5,2021. It was not like this when I made the first review here on April 27,2021.

Tip for consumers:
To those who want to buy gift cards on Telegram, this is a absolutely scam.

This channel has gotten over 100,000 fake subscribers and is being highly promoted by Telegram. I write this review here to alert others that this is absolutely a scam. I am not a competitor. The channel is still very active and keeps posting and updating as of April 26,2021. I have reported it to the Telegram Scam Support, but nothing has been done so far. Here is a video to check out: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MZCOO5WNNnw

I will use "they" to refer to the owners of the channel. They use high tech to add fake subscribers, which are just bots behind the screen. They respond in a professional way when you contact them. All the reviews are fake, though they look like real. The payment screenshots look very alluring, but they are just as FAKE as everything else. I have taken the screenshots and the screen recording of the conversations with the scammers, which have been uploaded to the Google drive for review: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1pyQCNzwwydcVvTYzwckwyCDIuCauZhE4

Four days after I made the payment, they disappeared. And on the fifth day, I got a reply that asked me to pay more and get more gift cards so that they can be more profitable in this way. The similar experience was reported by others as well.

Do not pay neither through the bot or the telegram live support. Do not talk to the real persons. They will be very supportive BEFORE you make the payment.

I went to Trustpilot.com to write a review, but it was removed. All the positive reviews out there are fake and were made by the scammers just by bots. Here is the link for the real reviews: https://www.trustpilot.com/review/giftsale.xyz?stars=1

Someone said they used bots to flag and report the real reviews. The real reviews were very easy to be removed, for being suspicious considered by the Trustpilot technology. I guess it is partially because the fake reviews outnumbered the real reviews a lot, or the real reviewers' accounts are simply too new to be on Trustpilot. Hopefully this would not happen on Sitejabber.com.

Since Sitejabber does not allow me to share my personal Telegram number, I created a Telegram channel: https://t.me/giftcards_sale_scam. Free feel to contact me.

Update May 3,2021.
My review was removed on May 3,2021. I guess it was because the scammers or someone else reported that my review was false. The screenshots of the conversation and the payment proof were all removed, which means I have to upload them again. Now the review is under the inner investigation by Sitejabber. Hopefully it will get published again, soon. Thank Sitejabber for such a platform. It is like a war between the scammers and me. I am afraid the scammers would use bots to write numerous fake but positive reviews on Sitejabber, then that would be very BAD.

Tip for consumers:
Gift cards buyers and Telegram users, be aware of the scam.
