Is Shein a scam?

No, Shein itself is not a scam, but it’s important to be cautious since it allows third-party sellers to list products, leading to varying quality and authenticity. Some may engage in tactics such as selling counterfeit goods or providing misleading descriptions. Additionally, resolving Shein issues can be challenging due to inconsistent seller communication.
