- German TikTok shoppers checking an advertised store
- Worth noticing
- The traffic-light guide says a green result is not a guarantee; the warning list includes dates and reviewers’ findings.
Field notes
The site describes three traffic-light outcomes: a reviewer-confirmed suspicion means do not order; individual warning signs call for further checks; and no obvious issue does not guarantee a shop is safe. Its warning list is presented as dated entries with findings, while separate pages cover methodology, privacy, and appeals. The page also says uploaded ad recordings may contain personal notifications and are used internally.
