Travel/Vacation/Timeshare - Fake Travel Sweepstakes Scam - Viking River Cruise Impostor

Subject: Suspicious Viking River Cruise Sweepstakes Mailing – PVI I received an unsolicited promotional mailing through the U.S. Postal Service advertising that I was a finalist in a Viking River Cruise giveaway. The mailing included: - A scratch-off game card with matching winning numbers. - An advertised Viking River Cruise for two with first-class airfare or $15,000 cash. - Other cruise and vacation prizes. - An offer of up to a $100 Amazon gift card for calling within 48 hours. The mailing instructed me to call 1-866-536-8375 and make an appointment to validate my winning number. The return address was: 611 Pennsylvania Avenue SE, #140 Washington, DC 20003 The fine print identifies PVI as the sponsor and specifically states that it is not affiliated with Viking or Amazon. I am concerned that this promotion is misleading consumers by creating the impression that they have won a valuable vacation prize when the actual purpose may be to attract people to an in-person sales presentation. I did not call the number or provide any personal or financial information. I am submitting this report to alert other consumers and request that the BBB investigate this promotion and its business practices.

Online Purchase - Healrize

Ordered Healrize dental repair product from on-line advertisement. Clearly stated 180 day return policy. Tried product (it took 2 wks to receive), and it caused tooth sensitivity, which it is supposed to correct. Tried once more, thinking it would fade. No! Caused extreme tooth sensitivity! Wrote for refund, have been getting 'run a round. Started with 30% refund offer, then 40%, now 50%. Only 100% refund is acceptable! *Amazon carries some of their products. Can't believe they do, because they seem to be a scammer! Next step will be contacting credit card company. Hopefully can get a 'charge back'.

Home Improvement - Appliance Repair Scam

I hired Fix My Appliances (301-289-0900) to repair my refrigerator and paid approximately $470 through Cash App. Although a technician came to my home and performed some work, the ice maker is still not working. I contacted the company to report that the repair was unsuccessful and request a resolution, but I was met with extremely rude and unprofessional treatment. I paid for a service that did not fix the problem, and the company has not provided a satisfactory solution. I am requesting a full refund of the money paid. I have also opened a dispute with Cash App. I am reporting this experience so that other consumers are aware and BBB can review the company’s business practices.

Counterfeit Product - Sculptd clothing

I ordered 3 bras from SCULPTD (sculptdclothing.com) for $146.56. The site presents itself as a US business, but the order shipped through YunExpress, a China-based logistics company. The only tracking number provided was a YunExpress number, never a USPS number, even though USPS made the final delivery. The package did not arrive within the seller's stated 5–10 business day window. On 10/29 I emailed the seller to report it missing. Within hours, the tracking page suddenly updated to show "delivered" on 10/26, three days earlier. Before my email, it had shown no movement since 10/23. I never received the package. The seller's policy tells customers to "contact the carrier directly" for packages marked delivered but not received. However, the seller never disclosed the carrier or gave a carrier tracking number, so I could not do this. I emailed the seller three times. I received no reply and no automated acknowledgment. Online reports (Reddit) describe similar experiences. The company's Instagram posts show high comment counts but only a few visible comments, which suggests negative comments are being removed. I had to dispute the charge with my card issuer. I believe this business misrepresents itself as a US company, fails to provide usable tracking information, and does not respond to customers, and that other consumers are likely being harmed.

Phishing - Davis and Associates Representing National Durable Medical

I'm filing this formal complaint regarding what I know is a fraudulent medical debt collection attempted involving a surgery performed by Dr. Jack Schillens at Shasta Orthopedics on 4.18.2019, this company stated they had my social security number and that we owed a company named National Durable Medical a total of $9,900.95 for the following equipment of SCD's, A shoulder sling, and an Ice machine that was used regarding my shoulder surgery. I was contacted regarding this alleged medical debt, and they stated that we are currently going to be sewed with a judgement if we do not pay them immediately, they stated they sent a written demand exactly 60 days ago, we've received nothing at all in the mail, they stated they would take a settlement as little as 4,000 and that they would provide proof of the bill's from National Durable Medical once the settlement agreement was handled until then they would not give us proof of anything. They provided a false account number for National Durable Medical of NDM166541-1, they stated that if we did not pay them they would file suit. In California the statue of limitations on medical debt is 4 years this alleged debt is from 2019. We strongly dispute this alleged debt and the claim that we are financially responsible for anything they stated we were provided. I'm requesting proof that these devices were even provided to us at all, that we agreed to purchase or use them or even rent them, and that any legitimate debt exists. A verbal accusation is not sufficient evidence of this and they are refusing to provide the information, we are under no financial obligation. What concerns us even more is that these individuals used my social security number without my authorization. I did not knowingly provide this information to them, and I am extremely concerned about how they acquired it, how it is being used, and whether my identity and personal medical information have been compromised. I believe this situation raises serious concerns about potential identity theft unauthorized use of my protected personal health information and seriously deceptive practices on the collection of alleged medical debt. I'm requesting the following: Immediate investigation into this companies' collection practices and the legitimacy of this alleged debt. Complete written documentation proving that I agreed to purchase and/or rent the equipment in question, including any signed agreements and proof that it was delivered or provided to me. An itemized explanation of the approximately 10,000 in debt that is being demanded. A written explanation of how this company obtained my social security number and what safeguards are in place to protect my information. Written confirmation that collections activity has been stopped until this company provides legal supporting demanded documentation. Correction of all inaccurate information they company has furnished to any credit reporting agencies. This is deeply disturbing that a company would attempt to collect approx.. 10,0000 dollars for medical equipment allegedly associated with a surgery performed in 2019 while possessing my sensitive information without my permission or my knowledge or authorization. I'm requesting formal response, a investigation and conformation that my personal information will not be misused. I also intend to report these concerns to the appropriate federal and state consumer protection authorities, I want all cancellation of any unsupported debt, written verification that I do not owe the disputed amount if the company cannot provide or substantiate the claim, i want immediate cessation of improper collection efforts and a full explanation of how my social security number was illegally obtained and used.

Counterfeit Product - Rosey Clothing Boutique USA (On Facebook) - Uniquik Agency Inc. for Zelle

This scammer plays many ads on facebook to sell clothes, then gave faked tracking and then finally delivered used clothes without any tags, wrong size, blocked comments warning other buyers, revealed private information of buyers and ignored requests for solutions to their wrong doings. To find out more info on goods, buyers go to private message on facebook. Any potential buyers ask anything, the answer is the same for all by the seller and it is in Vietnamese. After getting paid, even if requesting she didn't give a tracking number. Once the time frame she promised on delivery was about to be overdue, she provided a USPS tracking number. I fell in her trap as I waited and tracked till it showed "delivered" but to a business in Springville Texas which was nothing to do with me. She then provided a different tracking number from www.gofo.com (not USPS anymore). It was a "label created" status for days. When reaching out, she shared part of a sheet with my name address, what I paid for shipment tracking. Her sheet also shows name and address of other buyers. This means if being asked, she would share my name and address to other people too. Buyers privacy information is violated. Finally, I received 3 jeans I paid for. They appeared to be used clothes. There were NO TAGS. Items sold for $1.25 each at Dollar Tree has tag and these jeans do NOT have any tags. The size of each is a little piece of cloth with letter S/M attached to the rear pocket. Wrong size was sent and no solution to the wrong doing. I ordered and got her confirmation as size S but she shipped 2 size S and 1 M. Yet, she was twisting the language "I shipped the smallest ones for you". She never acknowledged she shipped the wrong size for one black jean, but said she would ask people who work for her in her warehouse. Then she disappeared. When I reached out, she ignored me. I reported again and again to Facebook, but they did nothing. They simply replied with a formatted message again and gain. Rosey Boutique USA continues o advertise and sell there. I am very concerned about the followings: (1) their power to spread faked information on facebook and collect real money; (2) their power to sell either used goods but advertised as new or sell goods without any information tags for items priced over $30 in the US while Dollar Tree has tags for items sold at $1.25; The seller replied to me these jeans were made in South Korea and there was NO tags saying any information. (3) their violation on privacy - when she shared other buyers' name and address to me, I expected other buyers also got my name and address. (4) their power to ignore a solution to their late or wrong shipment. She ignored my request for return label ad a refund for sending used clothes and wrong size. (5) I suspect these items did NOT go through proper import procedures or production. This would likely result in inaccurate pricing and profit reporting as items are not processed by standards commonly accepted in the US. I am not spending the time to simply get back $107. I wish to raise my voice at my own risk being targeted by her gangs so that authorities step in and stop scamming activities. I am happy to provide additional information to support each point I raised. Sincerely, Diep Le

Steven Rodrigues called me and said he was representative for insurance as I had contacted the Washington state health finder website. He told me he could help me sign up for individual health care as mine was being canceled due to loss of job at the end of the year. He told me that he was signing me up for Kaiser Permanente health insurance and quoted me $702 a month for the health insurance. He asked for my bank account information and assured me that it was for my individual health insurance with Kaiser Permanente. He lied. This was for cancer and hospitalization insurance which he NEVER stated in the conversation he had with me. I called back to the 737.254.4480 number, he told me NOT to call the 1800 number as it would take too long, and confronted them about the scam and they told me that if I canceled the accounts I would loose the chance to get individual health insurance. This was a lie as well and I called the 1800 number today and canceled the policies for cancer and hospitalization insurance and told them I was reporting them to the BBB. I have contacted my bank to ensure nothing has been taken out of my account and blocked them from any access. I would like everyone to know not to trust Americo, Wellabe and especially not to trust Steven Rodrigues. He is a crook and so are those that work with him.

Claimed to be California Franchise Tax Board; they don't call to collect money, they simply don't.
