Protect Yourself From Scams Targeting the “World’s First Electric Jet Fishing Kayak”
FluxJet Kayaks continues to gain national attention after winning ICAST’s “Best of Show” and rapidly becoming one of the most exciting innovations in the marine and fishing industries. With interest surging—and with our first production units still in process—fraudulent websites and fake social media pages are now impersonating our brand and claiming they have FluxJet Kayaks “in stock” and “ready to ship.”
These websites are fraudulent, and they are intentionally designed to mislead consumers.
Our founders have experienced this pattern before. After appearing on Shark Tank with a prior company, scammers created fake storefronts that reused brand images and videos to trick customers. The same thing is happening again with FluxJet.
This advisory explains how these scams work, how to identify them, and how to protect yourself.
The Most Important Fact
There is ZERO FluxJet Kayak inventory available anywhere yet.
- FluxJet Kayaks is the exclusive manufacturer of the FluxJet Electric Jet Fishing Kayak.
- No reseller or online shop has inventory—because none has shipped yet.
- Any site claiming “in stock,” “ready to ship,” or offering steep discounts is fraudulent.
The ONLY official, verified purchase sources are:
www.FluxJetKayaks.com
https://fluxjetkayaks.myshopify.com
www.FluxJetKayaks.com/find-a-dealer/
(If they are not listed there, they are NOT authorized and most likely have no inventory or the ability to acquire inventory.)
Why Scammers Target FluxJet
Scammers follow the hype curve—especially around:
- Award-winning products
- Viral content
- On-trend technology
- Major industry buzz
FluxJet Kayaks checks all these boxes, making it a prime target.
Fake websites steal:
- Our photos
- Our videos
- ICAST award materials
- Product specs
- Branding elements
- Founders’ interviews and quotes
Their goal is simple: get you to send money using a non-refundable method.
How to Identify Fake FluxJet Websites
Check the Website’s Age Using WHOIS (Major Red Flag)
Scam sites are almost always newly created—often just days or weeks old.
Use this tool:
www.whois.com/whois
Enter the website’s domain.
If the creation date is recent, the site is almost certainly a scam.
FluxJet’s official domain and our authorized retailers has been established before our public launch in July 2025.
Watch for “Free Shipping” or “Free Worldwide Shipping” Claims
This is one of the biggest indicators of a scam.
Fraudulent sites commonly advertise:
- “Free Worldwide Shipping!”
- “Free Shipping to All 50 States!”
- “Fast & Free Delivery!”
These claims are impossible for a product of this size and weight.
Shipping a kayak is expensive
FluxJet does NOT offer free shipping
Authorized dealers do NOT offer free shipping
Typical freight costs are $250–$350+ depending on destination.
Any website offering free delivery is not legitimate.
Click Their Social Media Icons
Fake websites often have:
- Broken links
- Icons that lead nowhere
- Pages that do not have FluxJet content
- Brand-new accounts with no followers
- Generic pages with stolen images
- Fake or missing contact information or addresses
Always verify that social links point to REAL Social Media accounts.
Our authentic profiles are always linked from:
www.FluxJetKayaks.com
Avoid Sellers Who Require Non-Refundable Payment Methods
Scammers push payment options where you cannot dispute the charge, such as:
- Zelle
- Venmo
- Cash App
- PayPal Friends & Family
- Wire transfers
- Crypto
- Money orders
These are deliberately chosen because they offer no buyer protection.
FluxJet only uses secure, reputable credit card processing.
Look for Spelling Errors, Bad Grammar, or Poor-Quality Design
Fake websites often contain:
- Awkward language
- Misspellings
- Inconsistent fonts or colors
- Low-quality photos
- Incorrect product terminology
These sites are thrown together quickly and are easy to spot when inspected closely.
Be Skeptical of Unrealistic Pricing
Fake sites often list kayaks at:
- 40–70% off
- “Launch week clearance!”
- “Only $499 / $799 / $999!”
- “Factory Overstock!”
FluxJet is a premium, high-tech, award-winning product.
Pricing far below what appears on our website or authorized dealer page is almost guaranteed to be fraudulent.
Check the Domain Name Carefully
Scammers use look-alike URLs such as:
- fluxjetkayaks-shop.com
- fluxjet-outlet.store
- fluxjetkayaks-sale.net
- fluxjetpromo.co
- fluxjetwarehouse.shop
If the domain looks odd, long, unfamiliar, or contains misspellings—avoid it.
Check External Reviews
Look for the seller on:
- Google
- BBB
- Yelp
- Trustpilot
If no legitimate presence exists, that’s a red flag.
