The Vial Report

Caught scraping us by our own firewall.

The Vial Report presents itself as an independent price verifier. Our own server logs caught its crawler hammering our supplier pages until our rate limiter blocked it - the data it claims to verify at the source appears to come from us.

Claim vs reality

What they say, and what we found

What they claim

That it is an independent price verifier collecting figures directly from suppliers.

What we found

Our firewall recorded The Vial Report's own crawler, identifying itself as TVR-discovery, repeatedly requesting our supplier pages and being blocked with HTTP 429 errors. A site that verified prices with suppliers would have no reason to scrape a comparison site.

Their crawler, caught red-handed in our firewall

A live log from our own firewall. The user agent TVR-discovery is The Vial Report's own crawler, recorded hammering our supplier pages and being blocked with HTTP 429 by our rate limiter. They aren't collecting this data from suppliers - they're taking it from us.
Why it matters to you

Why The Vial Report puts your money at risk

Scraped figures are a snapshot that ages the instant they are copied. When the price you act on is second-hand and unverified, the risk of overpaying or chasing a dead deal lands entirely on you.

This is one of three copycat sites we've documented. See the others, and how we collect our own data, on the Peptide Scam Warning page and our Our Data & Sourcing page.

Pricing pulled straight from the suppliers, with their permission - the data The Vial Report is trying to pass off as its own.
