Domain Name Information
The information revealed in the Whois database shows that this website address wasn’t registered very long ago. It is very common to find that scam pharmacies haven’t been operating for long, just like this one. What happens is that the authorities step in and make sure they are closed down after a while.
It is also very common to find that scam drugstores use the services of a privacy protection service to make sure that their real address and ownership isn’t uncovered. The privacy service and registrar used for this registration are in the Czech Republic which could suggest that the owner is in that country as well.
Business Contact Details
Reputable online businesses provide contact information to allow for customers to make contact if they have any complaints. This pharmacy only provides an online form if you need to contact them, not revealing their postal address.
This means we are unable to pinpoint where this business is located. Based on what was found in the domain name records it seems most likely that they are operating this store from the Czech Republic.
Regulatory Approvals
This pharmacy does not indicate that they are working under any regulatory rules. A check with LegitScript shows that they believe this drugstore operates illegally, giving them the rating of ‘rogue’.
Medication Offered by this Pharmacy
This drugstore offers a fairly small range of products and they seem to sell generic as well as brand versions. However, when taking a closer look a one product page there seems to be an issue.
They are using a very well-known brand name for a men’s health drug, even using photos which show the genuine manufacturer’s name on the pills, Then they give the name of a completely different manufacturer and give a generic name for the drug in the description.
If these photos of their products are to be believed this would confirm that they are selling counterfeit meds. Is this really the case? It is difficult to be sure, but it certainly is a risk when purchasing from dubious stores like this one.
Increasing this risk are the locations which they say the pills are dispatched from, India and Singapore. They also fail to give any more precise information about where exactly or by who the meds are dispensed. This suggests that the chances of fake, counterfeit or generally low-quality pills being sold by this drugstore is very high.
Payment and Shipping
As the name of the site would suggest you can purchase pills using Bitcoin from this store. They don’t offer any other payment methods though if you don’t want to pay with Bitcoin you are out of luck.
There are two airmail options when you order from this pharmacy. Airmail delivery from Singapore costs $25 and airmail from India is only $15.
BitcoinChemist.net Reviews
There are a small number of BitcoinChemist.net reviews found on the homepage of the pharmacy site. They claim to be trusted by thousands but only display four testimonials. Some doubts arise when looking at these customer comments, however, particularly when you see the photo which accompanies the feedback from Linda of Florida.
It seems most likely that these are actually fake testimonials with fake photos to try to convince people that this store is reliable.
The owner of this site started a thread on a Bitcoin forum to generate more business. It may have somewhat backfired, however, as someone there reports that they had their Bitcoin stolen by the site. The owner of the site doesn’t address the poster initially and it seems to be a genuine customer support problem which wasn’t resolved.
Conclusion
The owner of this drugstore wants to keep his information a secret, only using an anonymous username on a forum to drive customers to his site. The pharmacy has no regulation and the pills are likely to be of low-quality or counterfeit which could put customer’s health at great risk.
This online pharmacy shows every indication of being a scam, we award them 1 star out of 5 accordingly.
