Answer

Are shoppers in Mallorca affected by fake shop scams too?

The case is mainly about customers in Germany, but fake shops can affect buyers anywhere, including Mallorca, if they shop online from the wrong site. The basic warning signs are often the same: unusually low prices, unclear contact details, and payment methods that offer little buyer protection. Careful checking before paying is still the safest approach.
