2 fake Faguo stores copied all 321 products and knock 25% off at the basket

The terms of sale name Faguo's company and head office

These stores are a separate rebuild of faguo-store.com, with their own scripts, their own cookie banner and a product list stored in one file. That file holds 321 products, each with Faguo's product name, reference code, price, carbon-footprint figure and an image address on Faguo's servers. Product addresses follow Faguo's: the white and blue Commute 1 sits at /products/baskets-homme-blanc-bleu-cuir-modele-commute-1 on all three sites.

The legal pages go further. faguo-france.com's terms of sale name the Faguo company, its Nantes head office and its registration number, and say the contract is concluded 'via le site faguo-france.com'. Both stores' legal pages are dated 27 August 2026. faguo-shop.com was registered the next day, 28 August, and faguo-france.com on 9 September. Both use the same registrar and the same pair of nameservers, and both sit behind the same content-delivery network, which hides the server they run on.

faguo-shop.com is already in Google's index. A site search returned 10 of its pages, including Hazel and Lumbo trainer pages and a Christmas gift-guide post. We found no indexed pages for faguo-france.com. Its Google Ads tag suggests it was set up to measure ad traffic, but Google's Ads Transparency Center showed no ads for the domain when we checked.

The checkout shows $93.75 and debits €86.81

The 25% offer is built into the site. A banner on every page reads '25 % sur tout le vestiaire · auto au panier', and the basket recalculates each line: €125 becomes €93.75, a €90 shirt €67.50, a €35 belt €26.25. Faguo sells the same Commute 1 for €125 on its own site.

At checkout the buyer leaves for a payment page on a separate domain. It carries the Faguo logo and ends with '© 2026 Faguo'. The country field defaults to the United States, the total reads $93.75 in US dollars, and a line underneath says the card will be debited €86.81. It asks for an email address, delivery address, phone number and card number. We stopped there and entered nothing.

Spam pages elsewhere, marketplaces clean

An exact-image search on Faguo's Cycling Medium backpack photo returned pages on more than 40 unrelated websites, from small businesses to institutions, under machine-written shopping titles mixing Faguo with other brands. That fits websites compromised to host spam pages. The three we spot-checked no longer showed the pages, so we count them as indexed only.

Marketplaces looked clean. Alibaba, AliExpress and Temu returned no Faguo products. eBay listings were second-hand. On Amazon.fr, Faguo-branded listings sat mostly at Faguo's list prices, some reduced, and nothing linked them to counterfeits. We placed no order with either fake store, so we can't say whether anything ships. The scanner's visual comparison was unusable here because faguo-store.com served our scanner a bot check.
