Online Purchase
I ordered flowers online and got an email shortly after saying it was canceled because the address was out of the area. They said they would issue a refund, but the refund has yet to come. I've sent many emails asking about the status of my refund and I get the same things.
“I am personally working on your refund” which is obviously not true.

Good morning, nice to meet you, ***** YOUR PRIMARY DUTIES INCLUDE: Preparation of Balance sheets (Mini), account balancing, invoicing, recording, proper data analysis of sales records, and recording pay slips into the accounting database.

He/She would assign daily duty logs, and you would be required to work according to instructions, using Microsoft Office tools and accounting software. Now the function of the accounting software is to arrange, formalize, and manage the data you have processed, and send it to your supervisor via email.

Online Purchase - Starland
I accessed the Starland and bought three pairs of shoes for $154.68 using PayPal. I got an alert from my bank with the transaction for $154.68 " You made a debit card transaction of $154.98 with PAYPAL *GUTIERREZGA", I didn't recognize this merchant GutierrezGa. Then I received the email from Bambudan confirming my order with Starland for $154.98 paid by PayPal even though the bank ran the transaction through my debit card. Then I got the invoice from PayPal for $154.98 paid to GutierrezGa. Later the same day, I get another notice from Paypal saying the charge paid to Gutierrez Ga have changed from $154,98 to $178.22 and that I have authorized the change which I didn't. And this new price was charged to my debit card which is my back up for Paypal transactions.

When you go on the website Ninici it shows the Etopian bible. So being a person going on the site you would expect a book. No where on the site mentions they will email you a digital copy of the book. That right there is a scam! For me personally I was expecting a book! When I told them I don’t want the digital copy the company would not refund my money! I had to argue with my credit union about the fraud so I could get my money back! That site is a fraud and should be checked in how they operate business! They just take money and run! It 4.90 of my money!

First, for legal purposes, these are my suspicions, and I am in no way accusing this company of a scam. I am just pointing out the very obvious red flags. This company has a fairly new website that was registered about a year ago. They are very vague with what they offer, and have a sense of urgency in their messages, such as "call us back by 5pm because spots are filling quick" when the actual job posting has been up for 26 days or so. Also, they do not include their full names in the email footers which is another concern. There is no digital trace to their company aside from their website, there is no public Facebook or LinkedIn account, which is another red flag for a "consulting company". There is no Apple maps location that pops up, and Google maps just zooms into Seattle, but does not resort to an actual location, proving they don't have official headquarters. Their website is very vague, and legitimate companies show some proof with the companies they work with. Also, in the initial email, the lady says I'm Alicia, when the email footer says the name "Rose". And there is a missing space in the email between "Alicia", and "with" in the start of the email. Rose when talking took seconds just to think of the next words in her sentences. Maybe she was stressed, or something else, idk. (No offense - but professional "admins" don't talk like that). After chatting with GenAI (two different models for redundancy), it seems like this may be a "devil corp" or a scam. Either this is a very terrible start up company that isn't even trying to look legit, or they are a scam. Regardless, avoid it for your own good. My details were omitted from the email for my own safety, but it was their initial reply (or automated reply) after I applied to their ZipRecruiter job, which is strangely located in Tukwila, WA, but they said it was in Bellevue, WA. Finally, what kind of name is Helal Helal? First time in my life seeing a first and last name being the same.

Online Purchase - Online Fitness Coaching Scam
I was approached for a fitness service for which I was quoted $2400. The $2400 was to be paid in 3 installments of $800. I paid the last installment on 01/02/2026. However, I was charged an additional $800 on 02/06/2026. I informed the merchant the same day of the accidental charge. They informed me that it would be reversed and I should see the money in 2 days. I waited for the money and received nothing. So, on February 18th, I disputed the charge with my bank. Per my bank, the merchant never responded to any of their outreach. He has also done this to another client. So, I imagine there are others. This is illegal and very cruel. I could have been homeless due to this or plummeted into financial ruin as $800 is a lot of money.

A letter was sent to me claiming that a relative or possible relative had passed and left an $11 million life insurance policy. When I googled the name of the supposed law firm, I read several BBB scam alerts that were identical to this. I did not offer my name and email address, obviously. The claims I found online stated that there was a promise of help if you split the policy with them. I am just assuming that at some point, they would've asked me for some money. Because I did not reach out to them, this has not gone any farther. The information in the letter I got is identical to the other complaints as far as the date, nature of the claim, amount of policy, etc. I have saved the letter and envelope.

The number he called from is not his number; it was a burner phone; this I found out as I called the number back and it was a non-working number. His direct number he provided as 425-800-4879. I called the number and was answered with "this is Ronnie Jenkins". I asked Mr. Jenkins who he works for and he got hostile and said you don't call me asking me questions. I said, well you called me asking me questions and I would like to know who you are and the Company you represent that is requesting me to send $24,000.00 to? He got very hostile and then called me by my name as he could see it on caller ID. I said if you are asking who I am, you are already new by caller ID. He continued to yell at me! I let him know that he called the wrong person to fall for his scam and that all numbers and business will be reported and he said do you need to talk to my Boss Tim?
