Fake Alvin Art and Drafting Supplies store selling drawing and drafting tools at getalvindrafting.shop

getalvindrafting.shop copies Alvin Art and Drafting Supplies' online store of drawing and drafting tools, but it isn't run by Alvin Art and Drafting Supplies and belongs to a known scam network. Stores like this are unlikely to deliver the real product, and may use card details typed at checkout for nefarious purposes.

Reasons for concern

  • Copies a real company's store under another address

    The contact email on getalvindrafting.shop is at alvinartanddraftingsupplies.com, which belongs to Alvin Art and Drafting Supplies. Alvin Art and Drafting Supplies does not run this copy.

  • Part of a network of thousands of copied stores

    Same kit and hosting as thousands of other copied stores, and outside researchers tracking the network have linked getalvindrafting.shop to it.

  • Every price cut by 65%

    Polyester Drafting Films Single/Double Matte 25 Pack is $8.89 instead of $25.39, Quadrille Paper Pad 4x4 Grid is $5.24 instead of $14.97, and Parallel Glider is $17.00 instead of $48.57.

  • Reviews written by the kit, not by customers

    Five-star quotes such as 'The professional-grade drafting tools arrived perfectly calibrated, Best selection of technical pens I have found online' are signed David L. and Elena R., signatures that appear on thousands of other copied stores.

  • More copies of the same store

    Two more copies of Alvin Art and Drafting Supplies' store were online in mid-September 2026: alvindraftingdirect.shop and alvinstore.shop.

  • Template text left in place

    The page still carries the stock claim of 10,000+ happy customers in 50+ countries and the sample address john@example.com, both left over from the store template.

  • The site has since disappeared

    When we checked on 23 September 2026, the web address no longer led anywhere.
