Is this part-time work online store legitimate?

Topic summary

A user reported a suspicious Shopify-branded website offering part-time work opportunities. Shopify staff confirmed the site is not affiliated with their platform and committed to reporting it to their internal team for investigation, though they cannot share investigation results.

A second user raised concerns about a different store (divinehaus.myshopify.com) selling a KitchenAid blender at an unusually low price. The seller responded quickly with product details but didn’t address key questions about whether the item is brand new or open-box, and which power plug type it includes.

Key concerns:

  • Pricing appears too good to be true
  • Incomplete answers from seller
  • User remains skeptical despite receiving some information

The discussion highlights ongoing challenges with identifying legitimate sellers on the Shopify platform, with no clear resolution provided for verifying seller authenticity.

Hi, @Yashaswinik !

Thank you for bringing this to our attention. That website is not associated with Shopify.

Please take action and block the website as it is looting money from people

I understand. I will report this to the appropriate team here to see what can be done, though I won’t be able to share the results of the investigation with you. Thanks again for letting us know about this!
