My name is Thorsten - Founder & CEO of FakeScouts. I am an AppSumo community member for about 8 years and bought a lot of lifetime deals myself, so I am all excited about finally launching my own deal and giving back to the awesome community here!

What is FakeScouts and why are we different?

In one sentence, FakeScouts is a brand protection and reputation management platform for multichannel eCommerce that offers digital trust certificates for „Authorized Resellers“.

So why is that any good?

Imagine you want to buy the latest hype online, but you just don’t know if this stuff is original or fake. Especially marketplaces are laser-focused on the product and the sale first while cloaking the seller information itself.

It’s just a fact that almost every consumer has at least once in his life been duped by buying a fake product. And the problem is getting bigger and bigger every single day. That is why customers are losing trust in eCommerce VERY FAST!

The brutal truth behind the big problem here:

Consumers don’t even have a chance to check if any products sold online are original or not. Especially, because so many merchants are heavily relying on dropshipping - they don’t even know themselves if they are selling original products or not - as they never actually had the product in their own hands!
So how can you still compete and stand out of this unfair competition?

Basically, just make it clear in 3 seconds or less that YOU are an „Authorized Reseller" of any brand you carry! At FakeScouts we provide a highly visible trust badge for your online store that makes it super easy for you to hammer home the fact that you are selling original products.

This also works for vertical Private Labels to get a boost on your hard to earn brand reputation!

Currently, this works best if you are sourcing from brands directly and can be verified by their sales reps. Or you can become verified through an authorized wholesaler or trade association. You are able to invite these people with their email through the FakeScouts platform, so they can verify you with just a few clicks.

What’s included?

This deal includes lifetime access to our FakeScouts standard plan, which includes the digital trust badge for your store that can be verified for up to 10 brands by up to 10 different sales reps. It also includes the cloud-based Seller ID Page with your legal imprint, all verified brands, and more seller details. Your online store can have a total of 10.000 page views each month. The badge can be installed on any popular cart system, so no worries there.

This should be more than enough for every eCommerce merchant to jumpstart your online shop sales with a good reputation for new potential customers.
