Surplusfun.com operates a fraudulent e-commerce platform designed to extract customer payments and sensitive personal information through deceptive shopping schemes.

Threat actors promote the platform through spam campaigns and social media manipulation on Facebook, Instagram, and TikTok, utilizing artificially low prices and stolen product imagery to attract victims to the fraudulent marketplace.

After payment processing, victims typically experience one of the following outcomes:

  1. Order abandonment: Payments are processed but no products are delivered
  2. Counterfeit merchandise: Low-quality replicas that do not match product descriptions
  3. Used or damaged goods: Previously owned, broken, or tampered items
  4. Incorrect products: Completely different items from those ordered

Beyond fraudulent merchandise, Surplusfun.com harvests customer data during checkout including full names, addresses, phone numbers, and payment card details. This information is likely utilized for identity theft, financial fraud, or sale on dark web marketplaces.

Is surplusfun.com safe?

β€” Unfortunately, not likely.

🚨 Gridinsoft Anti-malware blocks surplusfun.com because it was classified as suspicious shop.

Through our comprehensive security analysis, surplusfun.com has been identified as a potential suspicious shop. Our multi-layered detection system has found multiple risk indicators, and we recommend avoiding this website. Gridinsoft evaluates dozens of security parameters, focusing on domain age (only 11 months old), limited website popularity, suspicious content indicators (Young Domain, Low Trust Score), hosting technology and infrastructure, SSL certificate status, website reputation across multiple databases. These factors are combined with our machine learning model to generate a comprehensive risk assessment. Surplusfun.com has a very low trust score of 1/100 according to our algorithm.

This website shows characteristics commonly associated with fraudulent online shops, including suspicious pricing and payment methods.

Our analyzer determines that website surplusfun.com is using Shopify CMS. Shopify is a popular e-commerce platform, powering around 4.4% of websites globally. Shopify generally ensures a secure shopping experience, but visitors should be cautious as certain third-party integrations could present security risks if not properly vetted.

Automated systems are not perfect β€” while the evidence suggests risk, there is still a chance the site is legitimate. We recommend you check the website using detailed analysis or by contacting the company directly through verified channels.
