How to know if a website is a scam or not

This new laptop , supposedly being sold for $98

https://unrlcode.com/store/Flow-X13-...ile-p306750191

It is worth much more. They took a PayPal payment. Can dispute anytime.
How is this possible? What is life? Why is the website active if it is a scam?

How can I get more info on it?

thanks miscers, will rep,

are you retarded

that's the most scammiest looking website ive ever seent lol

and lol @ thinking paypal just blanket protects you

paypal doesn't always side with the buyer. as long as the seller sends a tracking number that's legit (they could literally ship out anything), then paypal will side with the seller more often than not

most of these scams use compromised paypal accounts anyway so they quickly withdraw the money and let whoever owns the paypal account get fuked
pm me ur pics and ill rep u haha jk no homo lol haha no but srsly pls pm me ur pics haha just glutes and maybe face haha no homo again lol just kidding kinda not rly lol pls send them

I will see what happens. Let's just say that I don't care about the $98 and I want to see where all this goes. Curiosity killed the cat.
I can easily make PayPal side with me or do a chargeback. Not so hard really.
