Fukudas for $139.00 Hand Made in 7-10 days at StoreNY! (not really)

This is hilarious, as long as no one is actually falling for this scam. Some time ago, I was playing around on the internet and came across this online store called "storeny" and noticed that it sold Fakudas, G&G, EG, as well as Carmina's and just about every GYW and HW shoe in the world. This shop markets its shoes as "handmade" with "manufacturing time: 7-10 business days" and they cost from $139 to $169, depending on the size you order, of course (the sizes are in US sizes so be careful when you order).
If you're bored, it's entertaining to scroll the pictures of the shoes and see how good you are at identifying the brands. It's pure fun. They take the pictures right off the real brands' websites. (see the Fukuda picture from his Instagram below vs. the Storeny pic).

I am tempted to pay the $139 just to see what I get back, if anything - likely nothing. I've notice this site for some time now, so they must be sending patrons something?

Here's the link if you dare: https://www.storenvy.com/products/2...-oxford-brogue-toe-leather-lace-up-formal-sho

I included both the Storeny online store shot and the YF Instagram shot for comparison:
