A TikTok live shopping stream is selling designer bags at 90% off — is it a scam?
Yes — a live stream selling “designer” bags, sneakers, or electronics at a fraction of retail is almost always either counterfeit goods shipped from overseas or an outright non-delivery scam, and the “sold out in seconds” countdown pressure is manufactured to stop you from checking the seller. Genuine luxury brands don't liquidate stock through anonymous live-shopping accounts. Buy only from the brand's own site or an authorized retailer.
