About Whalegot Scam
Whalegot is the latest trending retail scam.
Currently the site is specializing in offering women denim and a wide selection of power tools (which stem from their other affiliated scam site).
Featured on their About Us page would be the following:
“We are an online store dedicated to bringing you the best deals on various products. With high-quality service and longstanding commitment to our customers, Whalegot continues to grow while setting new goals on providing a huge selection of the very best products, prompt shipping and exceptional customer service. We are passionate about making it easier and pleasant for customers to shop online. We hope you will find your favorite products and to see you as our returning customer.“
The About Us company template, indicated in black text above, is the same template featured at Moderngaga.com and a scam we just exposed a few short hours ago found at Dalimua.com.
The red text above indicates the mission statement of Whalegot, which is identical the mission statements featured on the two sites we just mentioned.
Dalimua specialized in offering discounted power tools while ModernGaga functions as an apparel only “retailer.”

Combine both of these scam entities together and it’s almost as if they gave birth to the Whalegot Scam.
Contacting Whalegot
Whalegot discloses the following contact information:
Email: whalegot@outlook.com
Telephone: +1 614-695-3635
Address: 3347 Sugarfoot Lane, Lafayette, Indiana
We doubt that any of these contact methods are authentic due to Whalegot sharing an affiliation with scams that possess a track record of providing illegitimate contact and identifying information.
Additionally there are social widgets located in the footer of Whalegot.com but they only redirect people back onto the Whalegot homepage.
Payments, Shipping & Returns
Processing times are estimated between 1 to 5 business days.
Shipping durations are said to take between 1 to 2 weeks.
The refund and exchange policy featured at Whalegot are incomplete.

Domain Insight
Whalegot.com was a privately registered site created on November 11th, 2019.
Whalegot is set to expire on November 11th, 2020.
Due to Whalegot’s recent inception they have yet to rank on market intelligence sites.
Their affiliation with past scams, however, provide us with the insight that it is likely that Whalegot could be conducting misleading advertisement campaigns through social networks, search engines and through other reputable retail sites.
These advertisements are highly deceptive and are solely employed to draw consumers to their retail trap.
Red Flags & Question Marks
- Operates Anonymously
- Unverified Contact Information

Whalegot Scam Review
Whalegot is a discount retail scam site that should be avoided.
Nothing regarding their platform is authentic while consumers who have been scammed by past affiliated entities have reported never receiving any goods, multiple charges to their payment card and more.
If you have been scammed by Whalegot it is important that you contact your financial institution, request a chargeback and ask for a replacement payment card.
Outcome: Whalegot.com is a SCAM!

These guys opened another page called:

That’s why I’m posting these comments.
DO NOT order from this company, it is a total scam, I reported them to the BBC!!!
Ordered a tool box and never recieved any confirmation about my order. Tried to contact them but nothing works. WHY HAVENT THEY BEEN BUSTED YET???
Same.I ordered my husband a tool box for Christmas! As his big gift! 🙄I was wondering where the Ray ban knock offs came from! So mad ! How do I go about getting refunded, if it’s even possible?
I just ordered a Rigid Planer from them and then decided to research them when I seen the charge posted on my account was payable to HIGHLAND PORK INC BRONX BRONX NY. Should have investigated these guys more thoroughly before ordering.

Is there a way to get our money back. I had order a 18v ion lithium drill set and instead receive a Louis Vuitton wallet.
Yes, go to your bank and dispute the charge. That is what I did and got my money back. The bank also canceled my debit card so they couldn’t make any more charges, but I did get my money back.
It is a scam, I ordered a ryobi rotary hammer and they sent me a weird fake wallet. There is no way to contact them and the phone number listed is faked . Avoid dealing or give any information to this web site to protect yourself from further fraud
I paid $62 for some power ratchets and I got a cheap wallet

add USNOTION.COM TO THE LIST
Here’s our USNOTION.com review.
Add Tailorcorp to the list: tailororp.com. It has the same Contact Us info.
Add Tailororp tailororp.com to the list. It has the same Contact Us info.
If your see a 1200 dollar tool set selling for 65 bucks on any site you’ve got to know the shit is fake common sense should tell you something isn’t right
I ordered a air compressor from them and I got the air compressor my card has not been charged any extra I don’t know
You got your order sir?
No, I cancelled the order after I researched the website and found out all contact and address information was fictitious. Adding to my decision was all the scam reports on the internet regarding Whalegot.com then confirmation of making the right decision was the international transaction fee that was being added to my bank charges for this transaction. Whalegot is not a US based company if international transaction fees are being added.
I don’t think he was asking you Robert. He was replying to j Doolen. But thanks for being THAT GUY.
Where did you order it
yanzom.com, reeboa.com are also the same scam sites
Haltervlo is a scam as well they took my mother and father in laws money off there
Credit card it’s been since 12/24/2019 and have not received any information on the items i ordered you might want to look into that as well might be the same people
Deepeven is also using same address and phone number. Appears to be same scam using another web name.
Haltervlo.com is somehow linked to this too.
As my purchase was pending with my bank, I was charged an international transaction fee as well. In the end I was able to get a full refund through my bank. With the international fee it appears Whalegot is not a USA based company which explains the bogus address they have here in USA. Also look up the the address on google, you will find 6 other websites with the same address and phone # . The address does not exist and the phone # is a landline for 61 year old lady’s personal house.
Whalegot phone # is a landline registered to a 61 year old lady in a residential home. The address, 3347 Sugarfoot lane Lafayette, Indiana 47905 does not exist on Google Maps. The address and phone# is also used for 6 other websites; Burton@outlook.com, Shopfitysale@outlook.com, fastbu.com, Antabuy>refund/policy, Skirteep.com, and costcz@outlook.com. these sites all use the same address and phone#. No one will answer the phone and if you read the legal stipulations that should be written in legal terminology you should notice it looks like it was written by an average 7th or 8th grader, not an attorney…I jumped in before I did my research. Now I have to go through my bank for a refund. PS: if you click on warranty info for Husky rolling tool box, you will be redirected to Homedepot website.
After checking seems like all these sites (some mentioned already) are part of the same scam effort:
antabuy.com
burtoa.com
costcz.com
fastbu.com
haltervlo.com
mirrorsey.com
mufflerply.com
shopfity.com
skirteep.com
