Online Purchase

As soon as order was placed, received text message asking for PayPal, Apple Pay or Zelle. After paying for the product I got an email asking that I get a confirmation of payment. Next thing I knew, a fake shipping company was trying to get more money for “shipping insurance”. No phone number. Poor response

Romance

A young lady on Naomidate.com named Li ID #1037059139 said see wanted to swap contact information . The cost of this is 5000 credits equivalent to a purchase of $1500, I said I was not willing to spend that kind of money. She then told me not to worry, she was going to cover the cost because she really wanted to be able to contact me. I told her no, I didn't want her to spend her money,but, she insisted we do it. So ,she then led me into a question and answer session for about 2 hrs. When it was over I realized I had been charged $3000 for that session. I question her about it ,she said she didn't realize U would be charged. I then reported this to [email protected]. They said they would get back to me but, that I had to furnish documentation of the encounter, that they would perform an investigation then get back to me.I full well knew that they had access to all this information by the young lady's ID number,but ,I did what they asked. I then reported this to my credit card company(Citi) and they told me that I would actually have to wait until the charges posted. Sandy, from support@naomidate contacted me after explaining my situation and they did their so called investigation she told me that they could not issue a refund , they would offer me 2000 credits for the site, I would guess to keep me on the site. I refused this offer because I wanted a refund. The next day Sandy came back with another offer of 3000 credits, I refused that offer Sandy has not gotten back to me. Know the situation I'm in, If I wanted to purchase the credits to get Li's contact info I would have had to pay around $1500/5000 credits + 500 credits to request the information, with no guarantees to get the contact. In total for that session I was charged $3000/11,000 credits. Twice as much that is supposedly required. I then asked Sandy to refund the total sum for the equivalent of 6000credits /$1500. No refunds! To top it of the young lady,Li, emails me out the blue, so I'm wondering how she got my contact. She wouldn't tell me. She apologized and offered to give me my money back if we met and I dropped the complaint. I refused. I the told her to wir the money to me by Walmart money services and got no response. I was a mark ! I want this kind of thing stopped

Counterfeit Product - GlucoZen

GlucoZen was/is advertised as a cure for diabetes. A long list of celebrities were used online to tout the effectiveness of this preparation. This was later found to be misinformation after further research, after I had ordered and paid 215.28 for three dropper bottles of 30 cc each of the preparation. My doctor advised me to send it back for a refund, which I did. He indicated that the ingredients were possibly of no value whatsoever in mitigating diabetes. He also indicated he had no idea the impact the contents would have when mixed with my current treatment. The order was returned with a tracking # with attempts to recover the refund were futile. Credit card company may issue a chargeback. See attachments.

Phishing - Optimal-Auction

I am reporting a fraudulent business operating under the name “Optimal-Auction” which appears to be intentionally impersonating a legitimate company, Optimal Auction Group, LLC. This fraudulent operation is advertising farm equipment, construction machinery, automobiles, commercial vehicles, and other equipment on its website at unusually low prices in an attempt to lure buyers into sending payment. The equipment being advertised does not appear to actually exist in their inventory, and the business itself does not appear to be legitimate. The name being used is intentionally similar to a legitimate company’s name, which creates confusion and falsely implies an association with a legitimate auction business. This impersonation has the potential to damage a company’s reputation and financially harm consumers who believe they are purchasing real equipment. Based on the evidence available, this appears to be a scam operation designed to collect money for equipment that they do not own or possess. I am requesting that this matter be investigated and that appropriate warnings or actions be taken to protect consumers from financial loss and to prevent further impersonation of a business.

Got a notification from Shop that 849 pounds were being paid via my Paypal. The notification indicated to call 802-342-1714 to contact if this was not me doing the transaction. Called the number. First time I was hungup on when questioned as they had me go to a website called Supremo and download something that in no way was Paypal. The second time I called a guy wanted me to go to my computer and press ctrl window alt key all at once. I was told that this was needed to file the complaint with Paypal and they access my computer because it was compromised. I questioned him again and said that this phone call could be the real scam and I hung up. Changed my paypal password and I see how people get scammed. They are very good.

Worthless Problem-solving Service

Trademark Advisers (trademarkadvisers.com), operating as Impactful Insights LLC, poses as a licensed trademark law firm. Neither representative Jason Walker nor Wayne Robson are registered USPTO practitioners — Attorney of Record on the filed application shows NONE. Payments are processed under "Impactful Insights LLC" to obscure merchant identity and complicate dispute filings. The scam follows a pattern of inventing fake USPTO fees at each stage: a false Office Action response fee of $1,300 was solicited in January 2026 — USPTO records confirm no Office Action was ever issued. A $600 Statement of Use fee was later demanded for a use-based application that requires no such filing — the representative admitted the error in writing only after being confronted with USPTO records. Wayne Robson is publicly identified as an alias used in this same trademark scam via USaTrademarkPros targeting independent business owners. FTC, FBI IC3, USPTO, and California AG complaints have been filed.

Online Purchase

Company advertised a “40% off” promotion, but the original listed prices appeared artificially inflated far above normal retail pricing. Example: Maison Francis Kurkdjian Baccarat Rouge 540 was listed around $880 before discount, resulting in a “discounted” price of approximately $530. However, the same fragrance is widely available from authorized retailers and department stores for about $495 regular retail price without any special promotion. This makes the advertised discount appear misleading because the “sale” price was still higher than normal market retail pricing. I believe this may constitute deceptive pricing or misleading advertising practices intended to make consumers believe they are receiving a substantial discount when they are not. I have screenshots of the advertised promotion, listed prices, and comparison retail pricing.

I ordered this beautiful, glittery silver shirt supposedly from the USA. It took forever to get it and, in tracking it, it appeared to come from China or some other country. When it finally arrived, it was not what I ordered. It was a cheap, thin tie dye shirt that looked nothing like what was advertised. I emailed the company on May 6 and they said I would get 50% of my refund right away and the other 50%, minus a restocking fee of 15%, when they got it back. I was refunded $9.99 immediately and that was all. I returned it certified mail and it was signed for but I never got any more of my money refunded to my credit card. Instead, they tried to charge me $39.99 a few days later and my credit card company flagged them and sent me an email and I told them that I did not authorize any more charges to them and they were supposed to send me a refund. I spoke to someone on the phone from my credit card company too and she cancelled my card immediately and they issued me a new one. I did email this company back on May 19 and never heard back from them. This fake company also goes by the name Belroshop and some of emails I received from them are from Belroshop.com. I will never order online again without checking with the BBB first.

I saw an ad for this product through Google advertising. Went to the page about the product, it was a lovely story and the products looked really nice. I bought a set. When I got the products they were nothing like what was advertised, like dollar store versions of the real thing. I was so mad and I knew I had been scammed. When I looked up the company name and "scam" I found out that a lot of people have been duped by this company. I did file a refund request and complaint with paypal regarding my money, but this is really so not cool and I want to make sure it gets reported so they can be stopped. At least this time. And Google is also responsible for not vetting the ads they are showing people better. So sad :(

Counterfeit Product - Nicole's Coastal Boutique

Ad on Facebook, went to website. Ordered three items. Took several weeks to receive. Items had the same patterns/shape as on the website but the material was NOT as described (i.e., website says linen blend, received cheap polyester; fit was ridiculous too tight on top, giant on the bottom), worse than something you'd buy on sale at Walmart. Website says "hassle free 30 day returns" but when I tried to return I got into an endless bot chat with them saying they'd offer 10%, 20% then 40% refund. When I said I don't want a refund because their produce is worthless then they told me I would have to return directly to CHINA costing me almost as much as what I was charged. There is no phone number or address (US or otherwise) for the company listed anywhere. I've uploaded the various email chains with what I believe is just a bot.

Sweepstakes/Lottery/Prizes - Prize Winner - Phishing Scam

A person named Richard LAVERY sent me a text message this morning saying that they had received a lottery winning and I was one of the few people that got an invite to win some money out of a billion dollars and that I’m supposed to send a guy named Dennis a code for me to get a share of the lottery prize money. Out of curiosity I sent the manager Dennis the code and I received a text message back saying that I was one of the lucky winners when asked to send him my address and then he wanted me to send him a picture of myself so he can verify if it was really me so I didn’t because then that’s when I realized that this was a scam. I didn’t send anything else to him or a Richard LAVERY. You have to beware when someone asks for your picture and you don’t know who that person is.
