I had no idea what Temu was. It just started showing up everywhere one day and honestly the site.... Well.... it does feel kind of scamy. I really can't lie about that. It does. Idk if it IS scamy, but it just comes off that way to me. I usually look stuff up on AliExpress before checking any US retailers anyway. At least for uncommon items.

I've ordered maybe 5 times from them and never had any problem, my orders arrived in a week with all the items every time.

Ive heard rumors about credit card stealing, so I pay with PayPal just to be safe.

It is scammy, they keep stealing credit card information and keep sending bizarre wrong orders, or they just sell fake goods and tell you to shove it when they arrive. Imagine a Wish .com but even more evil.

Do not use Temu.

Works fine for me, been using it for a few months and nothing happened.

To each their own. I wouldn’t take the risk after my coworker had 2,000 drained from his account, and it took support 6 months to help him. He had to essentially have his bank force temu into any sort of action.
