Utility - AT&T Impostor

This number called 808-404-7309, claiming to be Sam Edward (ID# BS6002) from AT&T. He quoted us a price for 3 years and told me to call and ask for technician, Mark Williams (ID# T8294), to come set up. A call was made and this person can not come set up. Looked up the number and it states it's a scam.

Home Improvement - techhomesolutions

I had a leak in my roof that I wanted to get repaired. I had 4 or 5 bids from roofer companies, but they did not want to patch my roof and advised that I needed a total roof replacement. The last bid I received was from Techhomesolutions/Sean for $800 to patch on June 9, 2026. Work started on June 18,2026 when I was informed dry rot was discovered after initial tear off and the price was $19,000.00 to replace dry rot on several parts of my roof, as more dry rot was uncovered I was informed the whole roof needed to be replaced and would cost $32,000. I have pictures of the dry rot and by that time the entire roof had been removed, therefore I had no choice but to continue with the roof replacement. The company did not accept credit card as payment, checks or cash only. As the project proceeded I wrote 5 or 6 personal checks for various amounts under $5000 to Patrick Al Bhaird (owner of company). The project was completed July 6, 2026 and all looked great. It rained for the first time September 12, on September 13, I discovered a puddle on the kitchen floor leaking from the same spot. I tried to call the roofer and discovered the phone number no longer works. I looked up the roofer company online and found no other contact information.

Sweepstakes/Lottery/Prizes - Sweepstakes Scam

I received a video call from a person calling himself Anthony Dawson, I did not answer and attempted the Gmail attached and it was not valid so I video called back without my face being seen. I will make a long story short he told me he was from PCH and I had won 7.5 million and a new Mercedes Benz. I was given the following information: *Anthony Dawson *Pkg# 8904196 *Check # 020485 *Prize 7.5 million in a cashier's check *$10k today & another $10k for the next two months from. Amazon *Ask if I had an Amazon card or would I purchase one. *Would I put $500 on ithe Amazon card and when I got the $10k give it the representative upon getting the check? *He had my address and stated the representative with the check was 2 hours away and I would get the car at the same time. I politely let him know that I shouldn't have to do that if everything was legal and I could take the check to my bank, they would let me know if the check was legit, and where I bank and having to put out money should not be in the equation. I repeated it and I guess he heard I wasn't falling for his game and he hung up. I didn't give him any of my information. The email address he used was [email protected] which isn't a valid email address.

Home Improvement - Home Improvement - Blue Arc Roofing

Paul came to the front door offering a deal to fix the stone pathway in front of the house and the patio behind. He gave an exact description of the work to be done, including pulling up all the stone work, adding a membrane, filling with sand, adding quickset concrete at edges. After doing more than half the job we paid $3000. Remaining balance was 500. We demanded to be paid before the work was complete. They did not complete the work, only did the specified work on half of the patio and missed a large portion of the path in the front of the house. Have not applied sealer or silica sand between the cracks as promised. Have not applied sealer and quickset concrete. Have not returned Calls for more than a week. After promising 10 year warranty, and pro promising no payment until we were completely happy, they have disappeared. They attempted several very expensive upsells during the process of the work. We declined. We are forced to finish the sealing and sand ourselves.

He will try to get you to come in for a cleaning. He will try to upsell packages he has no inrention of actually doing.

If you buy a ceramic coating (for instance) he will wax the car so it looks shiny and charge you for a ceramic coating. Or he will take hundreds/thousands of dollars for a "package" and then never let you make an appointment. He then doesnt pay his employees with the money he takes in.

Online Purchase - Arthur Hendon

Ordered a product until a realized it was a dropshipping front for a low quality amazon product. I told them to cancel my order hours after ordering. They didn't even bother to respond, and continued to ship my product the next day despite multiple attempts to cancel. Their policy states you may cancel before shipping. I pointed this out, and they still refused to refund me and continued to ship the product even tho it hadn't technically been shipped. They asked for screenshots of their own policy stating this, which is odd, you should know your own policy. The scam site uses fake reviews, and says 4.8 average rating with over 22,000 reviews, hand inspected product, with fake AI-generated imagery of their products with fake AI-generated packaging. It's all a lie. If you go to their shop page where they cannot curate reviews, they have an average rating of 1.9, and almost every review points out the same scam, poor quality clothes, doesn't match the description. Customer support uses a fake name and just sends AI-powered messaging.
