4 fake Garancia stores copied the whole catalogue, gift cards included, at up to 70% off

Every discount is exactly 65% or 70%

On garanciashop.shop, all 90 discounted products are exactly 70% off, under a banner reading 'Jusqu'à 70% de réduction sur une sélection d'articles'. The other three stores mark 71, 72 and 85 products down by exactly 65%. The Huile Ensorcelante, €36.90 on Garancia's site, sells for $14.02 on garanciashop.shop and $16.22 on shopgarancia.shop.

The crossed-out prices are Garancia's euro prices converted to dollars. On garanciashop.shop, 43 of the 85 products we matched are listed at Garancia's current price times exactly 1.171, and most of the rest at slightly higher multiples. The other stores use near-identical figures, as if each copy used its own exchange rate: the Huile Ensorcelante's crossed-out price is $46.72 on garanciashop.shop and $46.34 on shopgarancia.shop.

The gift cards came along too. All four stores list 'CARTE CADEAU DIGITALE' and Garancia's €30, €60 and €100 gift cards. In Garancia's own product data, the three fixed-value cards sit under a product type named 'Module Carte Cadeau ne pas supprimer' (gift card module, do not delete), which suggests the stores copied the underlying product data. On shopgarancia.shop, the €100 card sells for $48.78.

The small print contradicts itself. garanciashop.shop's returns page promises 14 days to return an item, then, further down, a '30-Day Window' with free prepaid labels. Its shipping page quotes French carriers in euros while every product is priced in dollars.

A 5th store sat behind a phishing warning 3 days after registration

The network has already lost one domain. garanciaofficial.shop was registered on 13 July 2026 through the same registrar and got its first security certificate the next day. A public scan on 16 July found it behind Cloudflare's 'Suspected Phishing' warning. Its registry record now shows 'client hold' and 'inactive', and it no longer resolves.

Earlier lookalikes ran on a different platform. labo-garancia.com was registered on 18 November 2025. A public capture a week later, on 25 November, shows a store titled 'Garancia Skincare' with a GARANCIA Black Friday banner and 'PRE-BLACK FRIDAY ! -50% SUR TOUT LE SITE !'. It now shows 'This store is unavailable'. A July 2025 capture of fr-garancia-beauty.com, titled 'Garancia Beauty Paris', shows only a theme licence error, and the domain is no longer registered. We could not see either store's catalogue, so we cannot say what they sold.

Garancia products also turn up in other lookalike stores. A search for Garancia pages on .shop domains returned two more stores on the same template and hosting network, trading under other names. One lists a Garancia 'Routine Bonne Mine' set at $22.81, marked 65% off.

Marketplaces look like ordinary resale

On Amazon.fr, 11 of the 14 Garancia listings we checked had offers from seven sellers, at €9.90 to €42.99, close to Garancia's own prices. Garancia sells there itself, and the other sellers include pharmacy and parapharmacy retailers. eBay returned 20 listings, mostly resale of individual products, plus unrelated items that share the name. The exact-image search returned 60 matches, almost all Amazon and SHEIN listings of the same Garancia products. We found no counterfeit signals in any of them.

Alibaba returned 40 listings for warranty and tamper-proof stickers, because 'garancia' means 'guarantee' in Hungarian. AliExpress returned unrelated products, and Temu returned nothing. Our TikTok and ad checks could not run during this scan, so we cannot say whether any of the stores advertise.

We placed no orders with any of the stores, so we cannot say what a buyer would receive, or whether anything would arrive at all. The domains' registration details are private, and we have not linked them to a named operator.
