Warning - Australian counterfeit/fake/scam online Spyderco sellers - Campknife.com and knifeonline.com
Posted: Thu Feb 04, 2021 11:23 am
Just a heads up to Aussie knife buyers.
Ive come across two online stores that are obvious scam sites, both are connected imo, and run by the same person/s.
DO NOT buy any knifes from these stores.
I have contacted Kristi and given her the details, so Spyderco is now aware of these online scam sites.
www.campknife.com.au store name is simply 'knives'
www.knifeonline.com.au. store name is a simple 'knifestore'
These seem to be also connected to www.knifesilo.com which is a known scam site.
I have not used either of them as im very careful when buying knives, but people new to Spyderco and unfamiliar with what to look for could be fooled.
They both come up on the second page of google searches for me, when looking to buy Spyderco knives.
Im not sure if they just take peoples money or sell fakes but either way its not good.
Both are using official Spyderco images, logos, etc.
Both have many discontinued, new and hard to find models for ridiculously cheap prices by Aussie standards.
Their contact address is a rental property on a rural farm in Temora NSW, I believe they have stolen this address and contact info but couldn't be sure..
Maybe this thread could be used for any dodgy stuff Aussies find, please add anything you find.
Cheers and happy days Aussies.
