I Made $30K on TikTok Shop USA—Then I Got Scammed

Behind the viral success stories? A wild west where sellers, buyers, and even TikTok itself are playing a dangerous game.

Gemini generated

When I hopped on TikTok Shop USA, I thought I’d hit the jackpot. Thirty grand in my first month. The whole thing was blowing up, and I was riding that wave. But what started as a dream quickly turned into a straight-up nightmare. Tiktok Shop is where, “Nobody’s safe, and there are no rules.”

What TikTok Shop Won’t Tell You:

I. TikTok Does Not Care If A Product Is Safe—Just If It Sells

TikTok Shop’s only focus? How you market your product—not what’s actually in it. I’ve seen some wild stuff:

  • Eco-friendly glass straws except it’s not an actual straw. These are actually meth pipes.
  • Gummy drugs from Viagra to Psilocybin, if you can sell the dream, sell it baby!
  • Caffeine powder is marketed like it’s cocaine, “Don’t Snort More Than Six Lines Per Day.
  • Sildenafil Citrate sold without prescription and claims to be, “Organic.”
