I came across this website lurking google for lil smokies(they have them for $27 btw). They’ve got sets of trucks for $20-$30 and wheels for $20(f4). I’m thinking that there’s no way it’s legit.

You can easily spot scam sites like this one is by checking their social media links on their site. The link will take you to the url of the social media site itself and not their site.

Copy and pasting their “about us” to Google takes you to other fraudulent sites. I would recommend avoiding
