About

Viral ads show you a product that sometimes doesn't exist at the advertised quality — or at all. We put the ad and the reality side by side, and let you judge.

What this site is

A lookup tool for products advertised on TikTok Shop, Temu, AliExpress, Instagram and Facebook. Each product page shows: what the ad claims, what independent tests measured, what buyers actually received (their words, their photos, their videos), and links to third-party coverage.

What this site is not

We don't make allegations about any seller or product. We host evidence — buyer-submitted reviews (moderated before publication) and links to sources — and we show both sides where both sides exist. Sellers, reviewers and rights holders can use the report link on every page; formal complaints go through our notice-and-takedown process.

The same product, many names

Viral products are frequently re-branded — the same item selling under five or more names across platforms. We link those names to one page, so whichever name you saw, you find the same evidence.

Who runs it

Viral Product Checker is part of the Piggyback Media network (piggybackmedia.co.uk) of free UK consumer tools built on open data and honest comparison. Some outbound links may be affiliate links, which support the free service and never affect what the evidence says.
