Shop facts
Who runs this site?
Trust seals on this page
A genuine trust seal is clickable and leads to the provider's certificate – a test the seal providers name themselves. We run it automatically on every check.
- Trusted Shops – leads to the provider
- Handelsverband Trustmark Austria – embedded as an image, but not clickable
We check the embedding, not the content of the certificate: a linked seal may be expired or issued for a different domain.
Warning signals
- Legal pages One mandatory legal text is missing from the site: the right of withdrawal. The other mandatory details are linked.
- Social media presence No social media profiles are linked, or the linked profiles are unreachable - there is therefore no independently verifiable trace of the provider online.
- Trust seal check The “Handelsverband Trustmark Austria” seal is shown as a logo only, without a link to the official provider - its authenticity cannot be verified. A genuine seal is clickable and leads to the certificate at the issuer; the seal providers themselves point this out.
- Country coherence The details on jurisdiction contradict each other: the responsible entity named or the VAT ID belongs to a different country than the law claimed.
In the shop's favour
- Trusted Shops The domain is listed as a certified shop in the Trusted Shops member directory - the provider has passed an external audit and is listed there by name.
- WHOIS According to WHOIS the domain has been registered for several years, or its registration data has been unchanged for years - an indication of a permanently operated presence.
- DNS configuration The domain has a complete email configuration with MX and SPF records - the shop can therefore actually send and receive email under its own address.
- VAT ID (VIES) The VAT identification number given in the legal notice is valid according to the EU VIES system and matches the company details.
- External reputation feeds The external security databases queried hold no warning about this domain - neither for malware nor for phishing.
- Trusted Shops seal match The embedded Trusted Shops seal is verified for this domain and carries a rating of 4.9 out of 5 from 37 reviews - it therefore genuinely belongs to this shop.
Further checks
- Imprint The legal notice names Propeller Shop Europe B.V. as the operator, registered under KVK 86047248, with reachable contact details. That number can be looked up in the public register - in a dispute there is someone to turn to who demonstrably exists.
- Server location The site's server is located in Ottawa, CA and therefore outside the EU and the USA - enforcing your rights there is considerably harder in a dispute.
- SSL certificate The connection is encrypted; the certificate was issued by Let's Encrypt and last renewed on 17 August 2026. Anyone can verify this themselves - via the padlock icon in the browser's address bar. Encryption says nothing about the operator's trustworthiness, though: a fake shop gets it free of charge too.
- Fake shop lists The domain does not appear on any of the fake shop warning lists checked - warning lists lag behind newly created shops, however, so this is no clean bill of health.
- Security headers The server sets the common security headers - the site is technically cleanly configured. On its own this says nothing about the provider's trustworthiness.
- Redirects The address does not redirect to a third-party domain - the shop is actually operated under the address you opened.
- Contact data plausibility The contact details given are plausible: the email address belongs to the shop domain and the phone number is correctly formatted - fake shops mostly use free webmail addresses here.
- Operator cluster The site shares no operator-specific identifiers with other domains we have checked - there is therefore no indication of a network of similar shops.
- Financial fraud The site shows no financial fraud characteristics or belongs to a regulated financial institution - the typical patterns of investment fraud are absent.
- Scam pattern No known scam pattern was detected - the site does not match any of the fraud patterns documented by us.
What we could not verify
These checks returned no result – for example because the site blocked our request or a registry was unreachable. This is explicitly NOT a suspicion: it only means we lack the basis for a statement here.
