Dropshipland.com, dropship land Reviews, Scams, Fraudsters?
This post has been copied word for word from a fake blog that dropshipland has created to fool newcomers. The reason it has been copied is to highlight the extent to which dropshipland is willing to go to defraud you. Do you need proof? Ask dropshipland.com for prices, they will give you every excuse on earth to say that prices don’t matter. Why? Because they are overpriced leaches. How can you show your disappointment? Avoid joining them, no matter how desperate you feel about making money. Why should you avoid them? Because they will lead you to yet more losses and waste your precious time. Read on for details.
Is Dropshipland a scam? Well, those are the questions, and if the negative reviews around the internet are anything to go by, then we advise that you steer WELL clear of them.
Dropship scams, Advertising scams, you name it, it is ALL associated with Dropshipland.com, and Steven Gibson.
Is it true? You decide, but read this first….
Where do you start with Dropshipland.com? The negative press they have received around the internet must make them one of the most talked about companies on the internet today, and not for the right reasons.
Looking for a dropshipper? Avoid Dropshipland.com? Read on…
Some people looking for a dropshipper will come across Dropshipland.com when searching for their chosen product ranges on Google, or other search engines. On the face of it, Dropshipland seem fairly straight-forward, and a website that just offers a dropship service.
Dropshipland claim to have 9,000+ profitable (remember that word) products across the internet, with 30,000+ customers who have joined their “services”.
Ok, you might think, but think about this. Dropshipland.com claim to have profitable products, yes? So if they did not have profitable products, then their customers would not pay them their fees? Of course not, why else would you use Dropshipland.com over any other free dropshipper, if they were not offering any profit – not when they are endless free dropshippers out there, like www.puckator.co.uk. Customers simply would not use Dropshipland.com unless they lived up to their profit claims.
But, are Dropshipland.com really offering an opportunity?…….. NO, NO, NO, and NO !!!!!
You see, as the internet has grown, many of these companies are being found out for what they really are. We can prove, and have proven that Dropshipland.com are NOT a real dropshipper, they ARE inflating prices they get from the real dropshippers to make you sweat just that little bit extra, they do NOT stock any goods, they ARE a useless layer between you and the real dropshippers, and they take people for a ride just for their personal gain.
What does this mean? Dropshipland.com are committing Fraud?
We will leave that up to you to decide is Dropshipland.com are committing fraud against their customers. Although, if they claim to sell to powersellers, yet all their products are more expensive than eBay and Amazon prices, then how can it be anything else? Who are those powersellers? If it is really the first resource for powersellers as they claim, where are they? Can they show you proof? Do those powersellers exist? Have they ever existed? You get the idea.
More, and more eBayers are now coming forward on forums, to claim that Dropshipland.com has scammed them into paying money to register for their fraudulent schemes, and that they were defrauded of their money under fraudulent claims – In simple terms they were not, and never have been supplied with products to earn a profit anywhere online.
This means that Dropshipland.com are most definitely taking money under false presence? Again, that is up to you to decide, but the evidence is absolutely rock-solid.
The amount of bad publicity against Dropshipland.com is HUGE.
If you do a search on Google against Dropshipland.com, Dropshipland scams, and Dropshipland.com reviews, you will quickly see that there is literally an avalanche of negativity including, but not limited to the following:
- Dropshipland.com sending Scam emails offering fictitious jobs.
- Dropshipland.com creating smear campaigns against competitors.
- Dropshipland.com sending countless spam emails to customers.
- Dropshipland.com taking payments they were not due.
- Dropshipland.com cancelling customers accounts.
- Dropshipland.com making ludicrous claims just to steal money from unsuspecting starters.
And much, much more.
In fact, go to Google and type in Steven Gibson Dropshipland and you will be totally shocked at what you find – of that, we guarantee.
For forum details about Dropshipland.com customer complaints see here:
http://www.dropshipforum.com/community/showthread.php/197-Dropshipland.com-Review-Scam-Dropshipper
These are from genuine Dropshipland.com customers. Again, you be the judge of whether this is true or not, but can so many people really be wrong, when dealing with Dropshipland? Hmmm, I can already read your mind as to your conclusions.
Forum, after forum contain countless unsatisfied Dropshipland customers.
It is true, Dropshipland.com have been banned from industry forums, for the fact that they were antagonistic and rude to their customers who complained – the evidence is still on forums for all to see.
Dropshipland have also developed a reputation of taking customers to court, and traders to court who have spoken out against them, on public forums.
The result? What are Dropshipland.com doing about this shambles?
That is what is interesting, because what Dropshipland.com have done, is to create a forum:
Dropshippingforum.co.uk – Fake forum – fake members, fake posts – All of which can be proven beyond doubt.
On this forum, the staff at Dropshipland.com, or more likely Steven Gibson, has set about listing derogatory and libellous comments against as many dropshippers and wholesalers as he can – in a attempt at revenge.
Steven Gibson has also sent various emails to these dropshippers, blackmailing them into removing content, in return for Dropshipland removing content from their fake forum.
We have proof of such emails.
The conclusion on Dropshipland.com? Scam, Fraud, or what?
Again, you will have to decide this for yourself, but if Dropshipland.com are not offering what they claim, which they are not – we have proof – then this could very well be the biggest fraud of it’s kind on the internet today.
Spam emails, total nonexistence of profits, cancelled accounts, payments taken without the consent of their customers, stealing of articles, threats with court action if you speak out? etc. etc. These are all accusations put to Dropshipland.com from THEIR OWN CUSTOMERS.
And now Dropshipland.com is abusing the trust of genuine researchers, by fictitiously and falsifying forum posts on their forum, in a direct attempt to direct new customers to their Dropshipland.com website – a website that has been proven to attempt to dupe customers out of their hard earned money.
Our recommendation about Dropshipland.com?
Avoid Dropshipland.com like a CANCER!
If you have been a victim of Dropshipland.com then please leave your comments below.
If you have been a victim of dropshipland.com then please leave your comments below.
I also unsubscribed to Dropshipland emails, and STILL receiving them. I
am sick to death of getting them now. Tried the service which was a
waste of time, and now all I get in endless spam about upgrades.
Arrrrrr!!!!!
I agree about the spam. You cannot trust a company that sends spam,
and if you just do a look on the internet there are LOADS od posts about
spamming. Dropshipland is overpriced anyway.
I absolutely hate spammers!
Dropshipland.com are DEFINITELY A SCAM! They have been taking money
from my credit by for no reason, after I emailed them to cancel. I have
emailed, emailed, and emailed to try and get refund, by they just say I
did not cancel.
I want my money back Dropshipland, and I will be taking this to court. Have my word on that!!!!!
If there are any others who want to join forces with these scammers,
then please let’s get together and force this mickey mouse outfit out of
business once and for all!!!!!
Dropshipland.com scamming seems to be very blatant, and their smear campaigns are systematic.
Definitely one to be avoided, as Dropshipland have also threatened many of their customers who speak out with legal actions!
Here are just a few reports from people who have used them:
http://www.wholesaleforum.com/discuss/dropshipping-discussion-6/dropshipland-com-feedback-opinions-3317/
http://www.wholesaleforum.com/discuss/report-fraud-scams-12/victim-dropshipland-11801/
So glad I found this before parting with any money. I am pretty
shocked at what Dropshipland have got up to. It is lower than low what they
are doing.
All I wanted was to find a dropshipper, not enter
into world war three. I will be staying well clear of that website.
Do not do business Dropshipland they are def a scam website. Many free website offer same.
Do NOT, NOT NOT, give Dropshipland your email address, as they will SPAM
THE LIVING HELL OUT OF YOU. I even tried to unsubscribe using the
unsubscribe link thinking the spam would stop.
Guess what????? Dropshipland STILL SEND THE SPAM!!!
I wasted my money with this Dropshipland website. They are not even a business, and even don’t answer the bl**dy phone.
I expected genuine dropshipper, and not two-bit hustlers selling from
their houses. Waste of my money. I asked Dropshipland for a refund, but
suddenly my emails are not being replied to…………………. strange that……. as
all emails were replied to before I paid my wasted fee………….. (Dont
trust!)
I paid to join Dropshipland (I know, I know, I should have done my
research first), but I believed all the sales bumth on their site. I
then started trading only to
be royally ripped off, wrecking my ebay feedback, as no orders were
sent, no emails were replied to, and in the end I had to put in paypal
disputes with the supplier. I also put a paypal dispute in with
Dropshipland.
I will never use Dropshipland again, and wish I had never heard of them.
Pauline
If you want a genuine dropshipper try puckator.co.uk, they are a real dropshipper and do not charge you.
Thank you very much. This is not the first place I have read very bad
reviews about Dropshipland. Back to the drawing board I suppose.
As a sole trader Mr Gibson is PERSONALLY liable for claims so we
served the relevant County Court papers (available from your local
county court and a small fee which is recoverable when successful) upon
Mr Gibson at his address. The court received a reply to the summons
confirming the address unequivocally.
Each successful county court claim will severely affect a person’s
credit rating. A single CCJ will cause huge problems when trying to get a
mortgage, even when trying to renew an existing one – a couple of CCJs
and a person is effectively ostracized from the credit system. If a
person has a couple of CCJs they will find it practically impossible to
get credit of any description.
Dropshipland.com owner: Steven Gibson
Good article, informative too, usually with these kind of sites you
just lose money. Try cubecart, for about £30/year you can get a much better service with xml product feeds and much more advanced functionality.
Yes, terrible site indeed! Fake office address too!
Still getting spammed as well…
What a horrible, horrible mistake that was.
Dropshipland, dpbuk, ukdropshipgroup and all those type of sites are
bordering on scams, because you are paying them for a site you could have created yourself a lot cheaper, and with products from a real dropshipper. Plus I heard they are all plugging the same scheme.
Don’t pay, you will lose your money. All you need is cubecart and a host like 123-reg.
We are going to be taking legal action against Dropshipland.com as we
want our money back from the rubbish we have been provided with.
If you want your money back, don’t hesitate to take this to court, as
we are doing. We will see how Dropshipland react when they get the court
letters.
The spamming is also insane. And we are now sending everything we get to spamcop. I suggest all you do the same.
We must put a stop to these people.
I was also a victim of Dropshipland and their rubbish website. Spam galore, poor service, and much more.
Don’t waste your money people. Dropshipland, or whatever they call themselves are NOT worth paying for.
See http://www.wholesaleforum.com/discuss/dropshipping-discussion-6/dropshipping-reviews-uk-dropshippers-avoid-1279/
Thank you for this information. It has saved me a headache, and some financial loss.
I also did try and obtain a refund from Dropshipland after not being happy with their services.
They ignored me, and refused to reply to any of my emails. I am not
out of pocket for a service that is useless to me. I am thinking of
taking action against them.
Where do I start, when taking action against Dropshipland?
I wasted my money with them too. There are free alternatives out there.
Very interesting indeed, Mr Mitchell, that a company who advertises
as being in the UK, with a UK registered offices, then hides under another
address when legalities are thrown in their direction.
I am sure we can all see the theme here.
It may be worth then looking into the logistics of serving the papers for Dropshipland to the authorities. .
I also don’t think you would have any shortage of takers, from other
unsatisfied Dropshipland customers, when looking to bring Steven Gibson to
task.
That letter is UNBELIEVABLE!! Avoiding the UK courts when Dropshipland are clearly advertising their business as being in the UK.
That has scam written all over it!
Second posting on this:
To all of the above – Steven Gibson is lieing – Dropshipland is soly owned by Steven Gibson.
DO NOT LET GIBSON LIE HIS WAY OUT OF THIS – TAKE COUNTY COURT
ACTION. ONCE A CCJ IS SECURED THE NEXT STEP IS THE COURT BAILIFF WHO
CAN VISIT GIBSON’S HOME AND SIEZE GOODS.
Plus you have the satisfaction of knowing you’ve shafted his credit rating.
The other key factor here, is that Steven Gibson, who owns
Dropshipland.com and ukdropshipgroup.com is a SOLE TRADER, which means he is personally liable for his business activities.
I also found the following amazingly negative reviews about Dropshipland.com and their scams:
http://www.complaintsboard.com/complaints/dropshiplandcom-c447981.html#c1000428
Dropshipland ARE A SCAM! I have had them taking money
out of our account for the last 5 months even though our subscription
ended a long time ago. THEY ARE SCAM. DON’T WASTE YOUR MONEY
WITH THEM
THEY DONT REPLY TO EMAILS, DONT HAVE A PROPER ADDRESS, AND DONT OFFER TELEPHONE SUPPORT
IM STILL TRYING TO GET MONEY BACK FROM THEM.
SCAM!!!!!!
Dropshipland are the biggest scam outfit I have ever come across.
I paid my fee and then they locked my acount for no reason other than I
used another computer to log in. They locked the account and still keep
taking money.
this is an outrage – how do you stop them?
I searched google and there are hundreds of people getting ripped off by them!
does anyone have any contact details for Dropshipland becasue the ones they have on their site are fake?
I really wish I’d done a simple search on this company before I
parted with any money. I saw a review on a forum I know understand they own themselves,
which is a scam and a con, this site seems to be owned by Dropshipland
and all the comments are fake!!!! They are all put up by editors – this
is what all the reputable wholesale furums are saying.
My experience is terrible and I’m getting scammed, like lots of other people. If only I could find a real address.
I would be careful when using Dropshipland as, make sure
you read all the small print, I personally think they are a con. I
signed up, used their site because i thought i would get access to all
of their site and was only going to try it for one month, they continue
to take money there after on a subscription basis. Not only that you do
not get access to all the information. BEWARE!!! They also refuse to
give any refunds and do not respond to your messages, even after i
cancelled my subscription with them, they still proceeded to take money,
for nothing.
Steven Gibson SCAM Dropshipland
Here we are again!!!
A quick Google search on the phrase: ‘Steven Gibson Scam’ will reveal a surprising number of results.
An acquaintance of mine has been actively exposing Gibson and I
applaud the fact that he has not been scared by Gibson’s ridiculous
legal threats and rebuttals on forums and other websites.
There appear to be no end of people who have nothing good to say
about this person and here is yet another report for your perusal.
I have been asked to write this by Auctions International Ltd who run
a network of auction, surplus stock and wholesale websites in
anticipation of Gibson as it appears that anyone attempting to reveal
the truth about him is subjected to his own form of retaliation … well
we say bring it on Gibson.
The trump card for anyone on the receiving end of Gibson’s legal
threats is that to bring any sort of action he’d have to come out of
hiding from behind his false addresses … That’ll be revealing!
There is nothing in this report that can’t be fully substantiated by factual evidence and screenshots.
This coward hides behind his accommodation addresses and never
answers his mobile. Occasionally, when you do get through,
incredulously, his mummy answers.
For those who have been on the receiving end of Gibson and were interested in the face behind the frauds and threats, here he is:
Pretty eh?
Having a meal with the money scammed from hard-working, honest individuals.
So what has he done now to incense yet another person to bash out on the keyboard?
Mr Gibson appears to be doing very well from selling dreams so you would think that a little
honest investment in service wouldn’t be too much to ask.
But no!
We first became aware of Gibson’s existence when
he approached us through one of their websites asking ‘if he could
promote the auction data as it would be a good match for his service’. A
few mails were passed and nothing came of it, mainly due to the fact
Gibson failed to deliver on any of his promises.
So imagine the shock and horror when they found through routinely
searching and checking seo, Dropshipland suddenly coming up under auctions
related keywords!!! … especially as only a few weeks prior they
absolutely no auction database and only maintained wholesale data.
Miraculously, Gibson had managed to find every auctioneer in the UK ‘through organic research!!!’ (a feat that took us
several years of ongoing work to accomplish), and place it in his
database that, astonishingly duplicated ours
to the letter. Even the categories were word perfect; words that had
been entered by a hard working researcher.
Naturally Gibson was approached and said it must be a ‘data input
mistake’ and ‘would look at it’ … of course he didn’t and the data is
still appearing on his other website which, again
appears to be trading at an accomadation address
Now, not content with stealing data and publishing it as his own
Gibson has recently stooped even lower … if that were possible.
We have, for 15 years, published wholesale data
and when Gibson set up after scamming another contact in 2006 must have
soon realized that they were a competitor and probably, although they
can’t prove it, has been systematically stealing that data too.
This year we have been undergoing major changes
and rebranding – They brought their wholesale data under the main
website.
Imagine the utter astonishment when they received a mail from their
hosting company whereby they had received a copyright infringement
claim!!!!
Yes! Gibson is now claiming copyright ownership of data he stole from us TWO YEARS AGO!.
Although laughable it is actually quite serious as they are now
having to defend their position and present their evidence that Gibson
is actually, factually, as low as they come.
We have now filed our own Copyright
Infringement notice to Coreix, Gibson’s hosting company. And I imaging it
won’t end there…
We’ll be posting this article around the web and encourage anyone who
has had a run in with Gibson to not sit and take it but get it
reported on the web.
Gibson can threaten all he likes but the truth will out!
Dropshipland is trading on fake claims and anyone paying is funding the luxury lifestyle of scam artist.
We urge you to get the word out.
Steven Gibson … Scam Artist, Data Thief and Career Criminal … to be continued!

Mr. Steven Gibson And Dropshipland.com
Mr. Steven Gibson Of Dropshipland Seems To Have Been Somewhat Busy In The Scam Sector.
Isn’t fate a strange and flirtatious creature?
Here I am being ripped-off by Mr. Steven Gibson, and his “Dropship Scam” Dropshipland; when I check out search terms on my blog and see that
someone has arrived at my pages through a search in Google for the
following string, “Steven Gibson scam“.
I think to myself, “Hello, what’s this?“, and follow the link to the
Google search page where I find a number of links connecting Mr.
Gibson’s name to the word “scam“, and not in a very positive way.
Actually, in a very negative way.
Interestingly the first two listings are mine. One I published on the
RipOffReport website immediately after I lost my first money to him in
April; and the other directing people to my previous Dropshipland article in
this blog.
Another Of Mr. Steven Gibson’s Sites.
Another Of Mr. Steven Gibson’s Sites.
The third link connected me to a site called UK Fraud Forum, where I
found an article simply entitled “ukdropshipgroup.com“. In which
article an individual describes his or her attempts to get the goods for
which they’d payed £ 476.80. This individual had tried to email the
site, for support, backup, and information; however this was apparently
nothing but a send message function, not a real email address, and so
simply bounced back.
Additionally, no one answered the phone, as is also the case with
Dropshipland, where they provide a phone number to make the page look
legitimate, but don’t “offer telephone support“. Meaning, absolutely
nobody to talk to at any point in the event of anything going wrong.
This person, then got on to the police, their bank, and also the
Trading Standards Office, but eventually got Mr. Gibson’s attention by
ordering goods to the value of £ 30,000, but didn’t complete the payment
schedule section.
By which point, it had now been three weeks that this individual had
ordered their goods, without them having arrived, and had been unable to
attract Mr. Gibson’s attention by any of the usual media.
Now, however it would seem, that since Mr. Gibson could see the
potential of reaping a £ 30,000 windfall, as it flickered across his
screen, or shot him off an email warning him of a failed transaction of £
30,000; within a mere hour of seeing this failed transaction notice,
Mr. Gibson himself called the victim. Isn’t greed a wonderful
motivator? Evidently, he hadn’t checked the details of this “client“,
and wasn’t aware that he was in for a bit of an ear-bashing.
In the complainants own words, “it went on from there. a few excuses
followed. delivery never turning up and another excuse, and on and on.
they turned up in the end but some things were broken, items were of a
cheaper nature then what i ordered. i definately will not use them
again. one of the worst companies i have ever had to deal with.”
I think this individual was extremely lucky to even get these things.
It’s quite possible that Mr. Gibson’s own greed for the possible £
30,000 was behind this individual getting anything remotely resembling
his or her actual order.
Another point to note is that the street address, as published on
this website is different from the Dropshipland address; moreover, the
complainant, in this particular case, did a little research, and
discovered that the post code for the address given, was not actually in
concord. A fake address? They didn’t match. I haven’t confirmed this
myself, but I’m quite interested to try the same with the Dropshipland
address. Although, I have recently been informed another victim of Mr.
Gibson’s unusual business practices, that the address for the Dropshipland
business is merely a postal address, and the business doesn’t reside
there in actuality. Indeed, this former victim is in doubt as to whether
Mr. Gibson’s business enterprises are actually located in the UK.
Why not publish a real address? What’s he got to hide?
So, what do we have here?
We have faulty addresses, no phone, no proper email service, failure
to deliver, and only contacting the client in the hopes of getting his
hands on £ 30,000.
Another interesting connection to Mr. Gibson is to be found on the following link to a page on Data Wales’ website entitled: “The fake job offer fraud. They promise a percentage, but you would lose
money (and possibly your liberty). The checks they send are forged!”
Moving on, I next find Mr. Gibson’s name connected to the Antifraud
International website, where his name is listed at Number 286 on the
Representative Fake Cheque Scam (RFCS) page.
Sprinting on, we next find Mr. Gibson’s name mentioned on the Scam
Baiter website in connection with the RFCS cited above; and again on the
419 Scam site, and on.
So, it certainly seems that Mr. Gibson has a history of fraud and
scamming; unless he has been the victim of identity theft himself?
Check it out for yourself at Google.
If you have had any problems of this kind with either of Mr. Gibson’s websites, please email your details to me. Thank you!
Keep you posted!
And there are so very many more negative reviews about Dropshipland.com, ukdropshipgroup.com, and Steven Gibson
So grateful i found out bout this scam before paying monies
Dropshipland.com IS DEFINITELY A BIG SCAM.
THEY SHOW NOTHING BEFORE YOU PAY, AND WHAT YOU GET IS OLD AND
OVERPRICED PRODUCTS THAT DON’T SELL. THEY WOULD NOT REFUND ME AND BLOCKED MY ACCOUNT.
WISH I HAD READ ALL NEGATIVE REVIEWS BEFORE PAYING THEM.
SCAMMERS!!!
I’d never even heard of Dropshipland before I started looking for
wholesalers. Now I am so pleased I did my due diligence and research.
They sound like a real bad company to deal with.
I also agree. I have used Dropshipland, and they just spam you, and the service is rubbish, and do not repond.
Here is the Dropshipland.com email scam
Dropshipland.com – Fake Job (Money Mule Scam) The following is an example

Head Of Human RDropshipland Dropshipland.com
Glad I did a check on these guys. This guy sounds like a huge
scammer..Getting spammed already from them. Was considering for about 5
minutes whether it might be worth joining up for paid services but so
glad i didn’t now!! I got this recommendation from someone I know who is
not a scammer but put this down on his list of top 3 sites at number 2.
I’ll alert him to all the bad press, and to get rid of it, as it’ll
affect him also by recommending such dodgy guys.
Thx. I have a similar experience, it is great that someone found the courage to acknowledge. Dropshipland.com is bad company.
I went with Dropshipland.com because they claim to give a
website. The result is that the website is USELESS. There
advertising all over it from their host, and you have to PAY to get it
removed.
Who would want a website that says **this is a free website** all
over it? No wonder it is bl**dy free, it is useless. You can also only
put a few products on this site, and if you want to put more on, THEY
CHARGE YOU.
It is a scam, an ultimate scam, and Dropshipland should be utterly ashamed of their scam advertising techniques.
I have put a chargeback in with my credit card company. When i asked
Dropshipland for a refund, they did not even reply to my email, and they
never answer their phones. Typical scam behaviour.
I’m impressed, I have to say. My research on Dropshipland.com, and
ukdropshipgroup.com lead me here, and it was a google search
worthwhile, let me tell you.
Thank you for helping me avoid a rather large mistake!
I’ve been having a problem with Dropshipland and have sent 5 messages to
their ‘customer services’and have still not heard anything in reply.
Shocking customer service (or lack of it) !!!!
Hi Kat,
Sorry to hear you are having trouble with Dropshipland.
If you are looking for dropshippers, then feel free to visit the following forum: http://www.dropshipforum.com
Best of luck.
I have been trying to cancel a Dropshipland account which i never took
out in the first place.when i was in hospital last year my nephew got
onto this company gave him my debit card information and has been
charging me £15 a month for something i have never used .I have tried
every month for 6months to cancel this had no replys my bank wo’nt
cancel it because they have my bank details.What do i do to stop this i
cannot afford this payment as i am a pensioner
Please help
Hi Lena,
I am sorry to hear that Dropshipland are charging you monies for services not received.
Depending on how you paid, you may wish to contact your credit card
company and do a chargeback. Companies such as Dropshipland.com rely on
their customers not knowing how to cancel, and such monies can soon
mount up.
Good luck with claiming your monye back from this scam outfit.
It is also making a note, that Dropshipland.com have created yet ANOTHER SCAM, AND FAKE FORUM:
– No doubt this too, will be
filled with imaginary posters, fake posts, all with the attention to
direct traffic towards the dropshipland scam website. Beware Folks!
Another thing that hasn’t been mentioned above is that Dropshipland are
paying for Google Adwords to their fake forum about anyone that has
crossed them in the past.
thanks, that helped me a lot! I was considering joining Dropshipland . Not now!!
regards,
Chantal
Hello, nice to know I am not the only one not happy with dropshipland.
We should combine and take action. I am tired of being scammed on the
internet.
Malcolm James.
I have been put off by these people (Dropshipland ) so where can I find reliable dropshippers?
You can find dropshippers for free, just by using Google search. Or http://www.esources.co.uk which is a TOP directory and features many suppliers for free.
Here is proof that Dropshipland.com has created yet ANOTHER FAKE FORUM.
Notice how they have already started creating fake posting, and
members on brand new threads.
They have done this so that the search engines will show these
threads first, in a direct attempt at manipulating ALL their new forum
visitors use false positive reviews about them. Then, when a
potential customer searches on Google, guess what will be at the top of
the searches? You
guessed it,
THEIR OWN FAKE POSTINGS.
Which IS fraud!
Dropshipland really does have no shame!
Dropshipland are also directly advertising their scam forums using two
accounts on Google Adwords, which is against Google’s Rules. They are
not only self creating the false posts, but also directly advertising
them.
How much more fraud do Dropshipland.com wish to commit??
Thanks for the warning on these. All I wanted was to find some
genuine wholesalers, and now I find that Dropshipland are not only scamming,
but have also set up multiple forums to continue their scams. It should
not be allowed.
Great article. Stopped me in my tracks, and definitely stopped my payment going to Dropshipland . Thanks.
Quite a lot of time spent to find research on the website Dropshipland , and after reading I will not be joining them.
I have also been ripped off by Dropshipland . I took a years membership
out January 2009 and didnt read the small print (there was pages and
pages of it).
I didn’t realize that my years membership was on auto renewal and they would debit my Paypal account the following year.
Even with auto renewal, I would have expected them to do as my car
insurance does, which is contact me a month beforehand to remind me of
the renewal, payment date and details etc, to give me time to decide
whether I wanted to go ahead with the renewal, or cancel.
What they did was, send me an ‘invoice’ for the renewal on the same
day they debited my Paypal account (probably done at the same time). I
responded to the invoice telling them I did not want to renew my
membership, but when I checked my Paypal account, they had already taken
payment.
They refused to answer my emails requesting cancellation and refund,
so I opened a Paypal dispute, which I lost. Paypals buyer protection
seems to be written in water.
I checked my Dropshipland account, out of interest, and have been
suspended. I emailed them asking for my money back, as I no longer have
access, and received an email informing me that my account has been
suspended for fraudulently trying to claim against them from Paypal. No
mention of any refund, of course.
The whole outfit is sickening and their legal recourse is just
another way of wriggling out of responsibilities. How they get away
with operating in the UK amazes me. Where is the Office of Fair Trading
in all of this?
I have kissed goodbye to my £50 now, but have at least cancelled the
Paypal auto payment so they can’t get any more off me. It simply amazes
me that such traders can get away with such fraud and continue trading.
It also raises issues, in my mind, about companies like google who
are no doubt being paid to push Dropshipland and his fake forum to the top
of the search results. I realize the internet is difficult to police,
but there is enough money being taken by google and the like to put a
system in place that bans certain sites from using their Adwords
facility, surely?

I am sorry to hear of yet another customer of Dropshipland.com being scammed out of their hard earned money.
Although no, they don’t pay Google to be at the top of their pages, they create fake forums instead:
dropshippingforum.co.uk
Its a fake forum, as proven above.
The fact that Steven Gibson claims to have his scam businesses
registered somewhere else when court orders are brought against him, shows how
far he, and Dropshipland are prepared to go to protect a blatant scam that
is no doubt bringing in a lot of fraudulent money for Dropshipland .
Dropshipland are now operating one of the largest internet scams around
at the moment, and when you consider all their fake, and false
testimonials they have to show, and fabricate, then it is obvious they
think they are beyond the law.
Dropshipland.com are also creating false reviews, as well as having negative reviews removed from here:
http://www.trustpilot.co.uk/review/www.dropshipland.com
It just shows how far they are prepared to scam their customers.
It is a shame.
It’s pathetic that i lost my money too, hate them!!! I searched in
google and find Dropshipland, which guided me to register
as a seller, and get suspended in less than 10 days.
After more than 50 days of struggling with them, now i will just give
up, say goodbye to my $250, but anyone can help me find a good place with products that are not expensive? I want to enlarge my
dropship business in UK and Europe.

Dropshipland.com definite scam website. they have scam forums too that
trick people into spending their money. known scamming set up. we were a
supplier on their books even though we did not ask them to insert our
details. we asked Dropshipland to remove our details as we were getting
loads on unrelated questions, and Dropshipland refused to remove the
details.
scammers.
Business is marred by a new fraud everyday. We should try and not
debase the business, new sellers are running away or getting too
skeptical to dropship nowadays with so many frauds online, and it looks
like this Dropshipland is yet another online fraud.
Ive already escalated my paypal transaction as they refused to refund
my 90 pounds. I cant even believe they created fake forum to defend and
promote their scam! how are they still operating? they are a total
scam!
I purchased a membership from Dropshipland.com in 2009.
exactly a year later to the day they sent me an invoice for £90 for
another years subscription to their website. I sent them various emails
demanding a refund and they just either ignored me or sent me a reply
with threats of court action.
I took the matter to a small claims court and they failed to defend
themselves. So i asked for a summary judgement against them and the
court ordered that they must pay me back what they owe me.
Since then i have written to them with all the proof from the small
claims court judgement, and a copy of the original paperwork that they
sent me which clearly states that i had indeed purchased a membership from them.
Their reply was amazing…they said that i was using false information and
asked me if i was aware that if i give false information in a small
claims court that i would face possible jail time?
They have picked the wrong person to mess with and I will now be taking this matter to a whole new level!!!
Dropshipland are def a scam website.
DO NOT GIVE DETAILS
Many free website offer much cheaper products.
Dropshipland is at it again. They know that their fake scheme stands completely exposed and are using their crooked brains to create slanderous and utterly misleading comments against those who have brought their malicious plans out in the open.
Dropshipland is run by one crooked individual by the name of Stephen Gibson putting his twisted thinking to use by creating fake websites and using misleading content to cheat unaware visitors. He thinks that by running down competitors using derogatory language and copied content, he can hook more innocent victims and fill his coffers with more bad money.
For dropshipland making false claims is nothing new. They have been lying all over the web to push forward their fake website and achieve their crafty intentions.
They must be hoping that by pointing fingers at others, the focus from their own crimes will be shifted elsewhere. What they don’t realise is that their crimes are so serious and dreadful that no one is going to forget them.
They are lightening fast at debiting your card but once they have a firm grip on your cash they don’t respond to calls and mail. I had an awful experience with them. I am glad I did not give in to their demands for more money. Huge scam here.
Dropshipland are really stupid ain’t they?
I won’t be surprised if they steal this comment too. This sounds so silly and ludicrous!!
This is an elaborate network of professional cheaters just waiting to get you through their well setup websites and blogs. I am among those few lucky who saw through their game at the last minute. Don’t have anything to do with dropshipland ever.
They have been debiting my account even after I have pleaded with them that I am not interested in their stupid services.
Dropship land does not care to reply to my mails. I have sent 11 mails over the past one month and they have not bothered to reply even once.
There are some steps which can be taken to stop this loot:
• Create a mail where dropship land victims can send their contact details
• Provide details of the money you have lost to this scam site
• Get a competent body to evaluate the claims and take the matter to the competent authorities to initiate criminal investigations and file a case for compensation and damages
We can bring them down only if we act collectively and quickly.
I wish I had found this information before. I recently switched careers after a devastating accident and the only option available was finding a decent business in the dog-eat-dog world of the internet. I have had a few dreadful experiences as a soldier and a plumber but what I experienced on the internet makes this appear kindergarten stuff.
I have added dropshipland to my list of things to keep away from. I thought I had become smarter from my previous experiences and considered myself an expert in detecting scammers and cheats. Unfortunately I was wrong, fake dropship sites such as dropshipland appear to be smarter and know how exactly to trap people with limited resources. I remember coming across “positive” reviews and now realise they are fabricating them and were written by the administrators themselves. I am £80 poorer on an already limited budget. I am livid and feel kind of sick.
I hope Dropshipland knows that WHAT GOES AROUND COMES AROUND. If they are reading this, I want to tell them directly that their game will soon be up. Earning money by ripping off innocents is the worst crime. And Dropshipland has been at it for a good number of years now.
Do they even realise that many of their victims had made money the hard way? How pathetic they must be feeling to lose their blood and sweat money to an awful scam! Yes Dropshipland, you can have my £30 and I have no regrets because I consider it as the price I have to pay for learning a good lesson. I made the mistake of not researching you adequately and that is something that I am not going to repeat again EVER. I am hoping to make some money fast with a couple of good contacts that I have managed to locate since blocking all your websites from my router.
You are parasites, taking money to fill your bank account and without care while innocents suffer your lies. Crime does not pay, get it in your head, you will pay for your wrongdoings you are no exception.
To those who have lost money to these buggers, I wish you the best of luck for the future. To the swindlers I can only say: Payback time is just around the corner. Just one more thing. If you have signed up with Dropshipland just get your subscription cancelled pronto. Use a reliable and trusted service that can help you setup your ecommerce business quickly and most importantly use a service that doesn’t lie like these crooks.
Thanks a lot for the warnings. I have been looking around for products for my online retail shop. After reading your reviews I will be staying miles away from Dropshipland. They need to be shut down by the regulatory authorities in the face of such despicable behaviour and overwhelming reports.
I want to tell all that I signed up with dropshipland.com for what looked like one year and they took away money for another 2 years without even bothering to inform me. They are cheats and totally worthless. I am restless! Paypal informed me there is nothing they can do to get my money back! Please help me.
Well, it is not in the least surprising to read all these disgusting reports about Dropshipland. I just wish I had come across them before joining the dreadful scammers. I am going through the awful process of PayPal disputes to try and get back my money, don’t worry I am not holding my breath. Dropshipland has failed to deliver the services they promised and I know there are hundreds of victims out there wanting justice. It makes sad reading and it has been a huge setback for me. Can I really use the internet to earn a living? How?
I am SO, SO grateful to this blog for warning me about the website dropshipland.com. You have saved me from fraud. Thank you.
I joined dropshipland yesterday, and canceled and asked for a refund
almost immediately.
There was nothing of use in their “service”, and they are now refusing
to refund me
Has anybody got a telephone number for dropshipland.com??
I want a refund and cannot get hold of them by email, they do not respond to anything.
Thanks.
Don’t sweat it, they won’t refund you.
Here is the inside story:
1. Dropshipland, Ukdropshipgroup, Dpbuk and Dvddropship are all the same company/scam
2. They are not dropshippers, they lean on other dropshippers.
3. They flog a crappy looking and bug-filled website using a free open source package called opencart.
3. All 4 sites offer the same products, you sign up with one and you have signed up to all the scams in one go…
4. Lingerie business is from bmdropship.com : check online reviews before you hurt yourself
5. Football business is from footballsouvenirs.net
6. Dvd business is from their own scam website dvddropship.com. Check reviews on google for details… This is how they came up with the ingenious idea of becoming a middleman for the other product ranges.
7. Adult business is from dropshipping.co.uk/catalog/contact_us.php
8. Beauty business is from arb-wholesale.co.uk : check online reviews before you hurt yourself
9. Ties and cufflinks business is no longer available, and used to be run by silktieswholesale.com
10. Giftware business is from puckator-dropship.co.uk
11. Inkjet business is from printerinkdropship.co.uk : company has now gone into administration, prices well above retail and hidden for obvious reasons.
12. Gadgets business is from thetoysack.co.uk
13. Ipod business is from ipoddropshipper.co.uk : company has now gone into administration, prices well above retail and hidden for obvious reasons.
14. Computer business is from computer-dropshipping.com : prices well above retail and hidden for obvious reasons.
Dropshipland, Ukdropshipgroup, Dpbuk and Dvddropship are scam and just an overpriced hoster. They do not own any of the businesses and are considered the ultimate parasite of dropshipping. Get eaten up at your leisure…
