Dodgy website
Dodgy website - placed an order, but didn't ask for my payment details, so thought it was a red flag! So don't bother! Tried to call but doesn't ring!

Phising
Made up to look like a generic shopping website but as others have said, many of the pages are filled with generic text and they do not ask for any kind of payment method when you try to check out.

As others have said
As others have said. I think this is a scam as I didn't put in any payment details and there are other indicators this is a scam with $ in stead of £. Also the delivery page is in another language.
I was looking for the total cost when I apparently "placed an order".
I did fill out the contact us page informing them to disregard the order before I saw these reviews.
Annoying.

BEWARE- PHISHING SCAM
This is a phishing scam website- it looks perfectly plausible as what could be more mundane than groceries? But it's a scam where you put in your contact details, click next thinking you're going to the shipping page, and get a message saying your order has been received. It doesn't ask for bank details. The website is possibly cloned from a genuine New Zealand supermarket.
UPDATE: I've just received an email from a completely different email address (Sam Salama at Mountainview dot co dot uk) from either the original URL www dot helloonlineshoppers dot co dot uk OR the brand name Fresh Choice. It's a 'confirmation' which shows the payment method as 'cash on delivery' and the order status as 'pending'. I assume in a day or two I'll get another email saying my payment method failed and asking for credit card details. I'll update this in a few days.

helloonlineshoppers.co.uk - Beware Phishing website
helloonlineshoppers.co.uk appears to be a phishing website. Check out the links to:
- About us
- Delivery Information
- Terms & Conditions
- Privacy Policy
The content of these pages is the usual Latin blurb which is used to fill pages of a website under construction.
The phone number on the website doesn't work.
The business address is a residential address in Guildford.
Despite having a .co.uk web domain, they cannot be found on Companies House.
The web domain is registered in the United States.
When you go through the checkout process, there is no payment merchant integration and no attempt is made to take payment before reaching the 'order complete' page. However, plenty of personal information is requested at the checkout process
