Fightment.com Scam Store? What I Found Out

By Samantha Oct31,2024

Fightment.com has beautiful dresses for sale which may catch your eyes. It’s important to know if it’s a safe online store before shopping. Below, I reveal my findings about Fightment.com; Why you could get scammed.

What is Fightment.com?

Fightment.com is an online boutique that sells different clothing, eg – dresses, shorts, tops, lounge wear e.t.c. for discount price. The store is trending due to its 30% off new season sale. Though this looks like a good bargain, the online store has some red flags which you should know;

My Findings on Fightment.com

Questionable Product Quality

The clothes displayed on fightment.com are images gotten off unwary designers. This is why all the clothes on the store have one thing in common; the faces of the models have been cropped off. Since it isn’t an original design, the brand would make an imitation of it. The manufactured pieces could either have poor design, different colour, unfinished seams or wrong texture.

This is tagged ‘Fast Fashion scam’. They make low quality clothes for close to the same price as higher quality items. Companies that are doing this are scamming their buyers.

Might Shut Down Anytime

Fightment.com was launched in October 2024 and would expire in October 2025. This indicates the website was created for a short term plan. Reputable websites typically register domains for multiple years, indicating stability and a commitment to their business.

Lacks Transparency

The clothing store is clearly hiding their address because they don’t want customers to know where they’re located. This is often the case with online stores located in China. They might create the impression of being an American or UK clothing brand whereas they’re operating from a warehouse in China.

Limited Communication Options

Despite targeting U.S. customers, fightment.com provides only an email, no telephone number or walk-in store address. This makes it difficult for customers to verify the company’s legitimacy.

Questionable Ethics

The content on the website are generic. The About Us, Terms of Service and Privacy Policy have been copied. While this act doesn’t indicate it’s a fraudulent store, legitimate business always source and provide their own legal pages in order to protect both the business and customers right.

No Social Media Presence

Fightment doesn’t have an active social media presence in this time when social media marketing is king.

Is Fightment.com Legit or Scam?

My findings indicate Fightment.com isn’t a legitimate clothing store to shop from. Customers could get scammed either by non-delivery of products, delivery of inferior products or unauthorized credit card charges. This is typical of online shopping scams.

What To Do If You Got Scammed

Cancel your credit card

Immediately call your financial provider and cancel your credit card. By so doing, the credit card details you used for your transaction would become null and wouldn’t be charged in the future by the store.

Request for a new card

After the old credit card has been cancelled, ask for a new card, it doesn’t cost much to get one.Your credit card issuer will issue you a new one with different numbers.

Report the Fraud To Relevant Authorities

Report the scam to relevant authorities and organizations. This includes:

  • Internet Crime Complaint Center (IC3): If you are in the United States, you can file a complaint with the IC3 at https://www.ic3.gov/.
  • Your Local Consumer Protection Agency: Contact your local consumer protection agency or the equivalent regulatory body in your country.
  • Better Business Bureau (BBB): File a complaint with the BBB if the online store is based in the United States.
