No, but it does look almost fake. The example pictures contain finfolk tails (unless I'm mistaken?) which would be odd. Also the English version is full of grammar mistakes, which is not a crime of course but still a little strange.

Yea, I thought it was strange that some of our tail makers, pro and casual, had their pics up all over there.

It's a fake. It's a single room office building in Springfield, MO. I did a reverse lookup on the phone number to the site. Figured out the the carrier information since it's a business line. Because of the business line, I was able to get the lat and long to locate the building. They got over 25 fakes businesses attached to the phone number on their site. I have 0 tolerance for scam businesses.

I laughed way to hard at this "Buy some silicone fabric. Fold it into two, trace the pattern from the cardboard into the fabric and pin it using straight pins. The idea is to join the two fabrics."

Because you can totally just drive to your local fabric store and buy silicone fabric...

Wouldn't it be nice.

If anyone recognizes any of the tails you should contact the real makers/owners so they can file a take down notice.
