The number one rule of online shopping: everything is not as it seems. Many times, buyers can be duped with the promises of a $12 swimsuit that turns out to be not what they expected. Beware these four shops that are guaranteed to disappoint.

Showpo
Showpo has a terrible reputation for misleading customers with their clothing. One girl bought this swimsuit, and it turned out to be much more low-cut than she expected.

Comemall
Some shops like Comemall aren’t very truthful. One girl thought she was getting a cute crochet swim top, which turned out to be much tinier than she thought it would be. At least her cat looks fabulous...

Zaful
Zaful is just not selling the products they’re promising. This shop is tied to a Chinese conglomerate known for scamming people and uses pictures of items from other brands.

AliExpress
AliExpress is another outsourced company that should not be trusted. This fashion YouTuber bought a few swimsuits from the online shop, like this black one, and they all turned out to be way too small and cheaply made.
