There are tons of scammers using Shopify. They’ll put up dozens of storefronts selling name brand sneakers or AirPods at “90%” off and stuff like that.

Of course, they never ship product (because they don’t have any) or if you’re lucky you get some super low quality alibaba knockoff.

With all due respect, if you are foolish enough to believe you can buy name brand sneakers and AirPods at 90% off from anywhere, you had it coming. There are many ways a scammer can set up a quick site, hook up a payment processor and start taking money. This is not a Shopify problem. It’s an internet-wide problem.

It’s not really a a good look for Shopify to be leaving those stores up.
