Is Rigloot legit?

[LeggyBoi2]

I found this website and I honestly don't know if its legit or not.    http://Rigloot.com          These prices seem fake and the design of the site seems sketchy.

The fact that we get so many people coming here asking if site X is legit when it is very very very clearly not, is quite concerning.

Everyone is desperate for a non-insane price for PC parts, that common sense is going out the window

But other than that, I cannot find a single review, negative or positive about the website, which is weird. Normally, if something was legit or not, there'd be people talking about it. This one? Nothing.
That in itself might be a red flag.

Those sites wouldn't exist if they didn't get at least a few victims.

Unlike most scam sites, this one is actually a registered LLC:

Comes back to this random house in AZ: (removed link, you can research it from the LLC page if you really want to)

 

So... if it's a scam, this dude is an idiot for attaching his home address and name to it. Took me all of 2 seconds to look it up.

I remember seeing this one in 2019. The site has been floating around for a while with not much said on it. Before COVID hit, the site had a lot more second hand parts listed on it. To me, it looked like a guy had parts laying around and wanted to sell them online without giving eBay or Amazon money.

Who said it's his home address? That would be a good way of getting back at someone.

Establishing an LLC usually requires the retrieval of certified mail. Pretty unlikely that a random homeowner wouldn’t have reported it in the last 3 years.

 

I'm not saying this isn't a scam, just seems odd that they would freely give out their LLC name on said scam website that links back to the person that registered it.

 

EDIT: Spent another minute Googling the name and it comes back to a real estate agent who works a few minutes from the registered address. So it's highly likely that all of the LLC info is accurate. Again, not saying it's not a scam but if it is, the dude attached his home address and real name to it. 

 

Only way that they spoofed the person's name is if they have access to their SSN and tax info since it's a single person LLC.

People register fake businesses using mail fraud all the time.  

They'll usually sucker the address owner into receiving mail for them in exchange for a few dollars.  

I've seen scammers advertising in online classifieds looking for marks to receive mail for them to bypass Google's vetting even.

Single person LLCs require the person's SSN and personal tax identification info, not just an address for registered mail.
