Joolop.com - can we ban it?

POSTED BY: grex9101 4 months, 4 weeks ago

Every single deal that has been posted involving this site has been been by brand new, fresh out the box posters - it looks like a total scam. They even post a couple of "deals" before going for the kill to make themselves look legit.

Can we ban deals from this site until we have some decent feedback from a trusted user?

the whois for joolop.com is a joke.

My first post to this site, excellent site loads of great deals. Found this Deal thought i would share it with you all please see below Found this site threw google offering wii remotes for only £26.99, great price and came 2 days later, only site i could find similar was Gameplay that is selling them for £27.99.

Yeah, we told someone posting these deals back in March that we weren't allowing them due to suspected self-promo but they carried on until we banned them.

If you find any more users posting these please can you PM me the details or post links here. Thanks.

The problem is they would just come back and make a new merchant ie joloop.com, jooloop.com etc. Only solution would be for mod approval on every new merchant, but potentially that could mean deals finish before approval. Catch 22 situation.

hi all

joolop are owned by woodee media ltd which also run lots of other so called online stores including golf balls online.

i would avoid lioke the plaque as i just came accross them entered my card details and they claim details are wrong, not only on 1 card but 2....

i tried to get a landline number and non exist, typical credit scammer websites offering good deals, with what looks to cosher sites but arent.

Steve
