Is theherocompanystore.shop a scam?

This is a scam.

Fake The Hero Company store selling apparel for veterans and first responders

This site copies The Hero Company's online store of apparel for veterans and first responders, but it's part of a known scam network and has nothing to do with The Hero Company. 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 theherocompanystore.shop is at theherocompany.com, which belongs to The Hero Company. The Hero Company 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 theherocompanystore.shop is already on HaGeZi's public threat list.

  • Every price cut by 65%

    Digital Gift Card is $3.50 instead of $10.00, Greater Good Charities Donation is $0.35 instead of $1.00, and Donation For Veterans In Need is $0.35 instead of $1.00.

  • Reviews written by the kit, not by customers

    Five-star quotes such as 'The fit is absolutely perfect, These are easily the most comfortable and stylish shirts in my wardrobe now' are signed Marcus L. and Elena R., signatures that appear on thousands of other copied stores.

  • More copies of the same store

    Three more copies of The Hero Company's store were online in mid-September 2026: theherocompanyhq.shop, theherocompanyonline.shop and theherocompanyoutlet.shop.

  • Template text left in place

    The page still carries the sample address john@example.com, left over from the store template.
