Buyliquorusa.com copied a legit liquor store but never shipped

A reddit report about a phishing scam that cost someone Amount not specified. Learn how to avoid falling victim.

Just putting this out into the Reddit world for SEO purposes. This website looks legit because they literally copied another legitimate website, The Barrel Tap. Several of the reviews even say Barrel Tap or BT. Scam advisor websites are saying it is likely safe because it has a valid SSL certificate, but it is indeed a scam. They have rare liquors listed for good prices, and they even respond to you from a legitimate email. But they never send you a tracking email or actually ship your purchased items after payment. DO NOT USE this website. While we are on the subject, I also highly recommend that you DO NOT use You Booze or Liquor Stars as I had a similar experience with both of them and had to dispute the charges with my credit card company, same as with buyliquorusa.com. I’ve used about 15 other online liquor vendors with no issues, but I wanted to put the ones not conducting honest business on blast. I hope this helps!
