Counterfeit Product - CraftFolk

This site claims to be selling the original quilted bags hand made by Martha Hensley; instead they send cheap knock offs that are NOT quilted with textures like felt lamb ears or fur to actually touch. Instead they are 3D material mass produced with no textures at all, no tagging from Martha for originality and one bag had the stitching unraveling. I contacted them via email, they had no problem to say to return to Hong Kong though the money is processed through London on my credit card statement.

Rental

I was called by these people and told that my unused time share weeks could be sold for a significant profit. I was told that the weekly time share fee would need to be paid up front, but rest assured, they already had customers for the weeks I would be offering. I paid out $2,394 and have not received any rental income. I called in November to be told not to worry! I called again in June and told that my rentals have been put on "pause" because I did not call in to renew - renew what?? I asked for my money back since the time share fees were never paid out. I was told that the money was not for that, but for "marketing". REALLY?? No money would be returned.

On May 27, I bought a Ryken vest on Shopryken.com for $144.79. Order #3416; Transaction number S466146604483401. It was to arrive by June 2, but didn’t arrive until June 9. I contacted Ryken by email on June 12, advising I wanted to return the vest as I purchased another one since Ryken didn’t deliver as promised. Eva at Ryken contacted me on Sunday 6/14 offering me a 30% discount to keep the vest. I replied on 6/14 stating I didn’t want the discount and requested a return label. Since June 14, I emailed Eva at Ryken on 6/16, 6/21 and 6/23. Crickets from Eva and Ryken. NOTE: Ryken’s website says you cannot return the vest without Ryken’s approval and It sending a return label. This policy is wrong and should be addressed by the CA BBB. I want to return my vest for a full refund. I contacted Ryken within 30 days of receipt starting the return process. A customer shouldn’t have to wait for Ryken’s approval to return a purchased product. What if Ryken never sends me a return label? Ryken’s current return process should be illegal because it is designed to frustrate a customer and doesn’t allow for a customer to return a product without Ryken’s consent. I have the email between myself and Eva, and my follow-up emails.

Online Purchase - Summoraft

I believe this company added a bracelet to my order that I didn't select. Somehow I paid for 2 bracelets and only ordered one. I let them know immediately that I didn't have that item in my cart and asked them to revise the order right after it was processed. The unwanted bracelet is for a daughter, I don't even have a daughter. They say I added the bracelet. I wouldn't have a reason to add the bracelet. I asked them to remove it right after I saw the receipt. They didn't remove it. So the thing I take issue with - how was the bracelet added? Did they have like a add this bracelet for a discount thing for that I didn't realize? Did they add the bracelet before I even started shopping? And the other thing I'm really pissed about is that they won't accept a return or a refund of the bracelet I asked to be removed in the first place! An order that was supposed to be around $50 ended up being $78. Shady in every way.

They market product on Instagram. I was stupid enough to buy based upon the images. It took over a month to ship and wasn't shipped until I asked to cancel the order. The quality was crap. It was an American flag fabric wall hanging and showed woven fabrics and large rod hanger. Instead it was cheap printed fabric and the bar was thin and in two pieces so wouldn't work. Asked for refund. They tried to get me to accept $4 and to keep. Awaiting return information. It will cost $20 to send back to get the refund. Typical China scam.

June 20th Got quote from two companies. One for $2800.00 and one for $500.00 Asked what would be done for the fee from both. Unfortunately took the lesser quote. Told the job would take two hours. After two hours Thomas, the workman showed a picture on his phone of three bricks removed from the chimney ( which he never asked or told me he was going to remove) that were supposedly damaged and price would now be $2800.00. After heated discussion I agreed to pay the $2800.00 and they would be back the next day the complete the job. They showed up the next day and started the job. Thomas then came to me an hour later and said the damage was more extensive and he had removed the chimney and the new price was to be $15,000.00. I asked him who permitted him to remove the chimney at all. After much heated discussion I told Thomas I did not have that kind of money. He reduced the price to $9000.00 and eventually to $6000.00. I told him still I did not have the money. He phoned his office and they approved quote to $3000.00 plus the $2800.00 in the last approved quote. I was told the office would call me and the crew left with all the debris in between my home and my neighbor's and on my back deck I checked the bricks and found no water damage on any of the bricks in the debris. I learned after they left they had also damaged my neighbor's house when they were tossing bricks from the roof. Someone from their office did call later in the day and stated $3000.00+$2800.00 was the price. I told him the same as I told Thomas, I did not have the money. The man told me he would think about situation and call back on Monday the 22nd. He never called. I was called back by the first quote and they said the would resolve the problems for $8500.00. I have the contract for $500.00 and $2800. and the bank confirmation of the $1415.50 I paid before they would commence the work. They are taking advantage of seniors and leaving a mess of debris and damage to my deck and neighbor's house which I am also responsible for. I did not ask or give them permission t take down my chimney I did not ask them to remove any bricks for my home. They were only to waterproof the chimney and put an new flashing around the chimney. I also have pictures of all the damage and debris if you require. Please help to prevent other seniors from being scammed.

Online Purchase - Creative Fabrica

Creative Fabrica is based in Westerstraat 187, 1015 MA, Amsterdam. It's a digital design platform and is $47 for the year's subscription that I have used for 2 years for my print on demand Etsy shop. They have charged my credit card 5 times for $47 each and said that I clicked on a pop-up on their website to add an additional year...which I have not! I disputed the first 4 charges and eventually was credited for those. My subscription is good until November 2026. On June 15th I was charged AGAIN for $47 and I've notified the company to refund me. This is a huge scam and others have had the same problem with them. I have contacted them via email and I'm waiting to get credited back for this $47 charge, then I'm cancelling my subscription.

Rental

I listed a house for rent on Zillow, 1616 Sainsbury Dr, Midlothian, VA 23113 for $2800/month. It showed up on Redit for $1100, I was notified by a potential renter wanting to know if this was real. I contacted Redit told them about the scam and they removed it. But before I did that I applied to see who would contact me ….. they wanted me to fill out an application, which I didn’t do, yesterday I received an email from beleiveown1@gmail. Com,: Thank you for your interest in my property, My name is Timothy Ragusa. My family and I have been looking for a good tenant who is willing to take very good care of my home for us in our absence. My family must confess that we’re very new to renting a house.

So I'm looking for a very good, responsible and caring tenant who will take good care of the property in our absence because we will be gone for a long time. If you also notice, you will discover that the price we offer is far below standard price, this is enough for you to know that we are not after the rental fee but the absolute care for the property. I know there is no way I can be sure that you are the right person to live in the house but I just had a feeling that anyone who knows what it takes to put this kind of structure down should know that maintaining a building is mandatory. We will make arrangements on how to send the keys and the necessary documents to you so that you can possibly occupy the house ASAP, so if you believe you can take good care of the house and handle it like yours then I will be more than happy to let you rent the house.

Employment - Fleetora

They emailed about a job on indeed, they then called me and asked about the position I applied for if still interested and then emailed a link where I had to create an account to be approved. Then had me send a copy of my Id and picture of myself with ID. Then had me setup a dashboard account for deliveries. I browsed dashboard and noticed they only pay with western union, money order, and PayPal. I checked and found the emails they used are fraud according to the better business bureau.. so I am reporting it so others don’t get scammed

Sweepstakes/Lottery/Prizes - Publisher's Clearing House and FBI Impostors

Received a "Courtesy call" from PCH on June 5 or 6 on landline home phone saying that we had not claimed PCH winnings and almost out of the 18 month window to claim our prizes. Said we won 15 million, a house, and a Mercedes. Declined interest in having another house. Then PCH scammer said we also won in a second, separate prize entry he had entered us into and won another 30 million. Told us we needed to pay shipping and storage fees for car sitting unclaimed for 12 months plus Other fees and some taxes owed too. On June 8 we mailed the 1st of 10 checks totaling 60,000 out of the 180,000 they said needed before they could release prizes. Then they Kept asking for more money giving variety of reasons. Became suspicious then backed off engaging. They sent a person to deliver pizza to our house. Before we got suspicious and stopped taking their calls the PCH rep (using name of Robert Cashmoore) directed us to open 2 new bank accounts at 2 different local banks for depositing that much prize money. We did open 2 new accounts at two local banks but only put 50-100 in each new bank account. When we backed off from continued talking (after we had already sent 10+ checks sent using FedEx or UPS) the scammers sent a locksmith guy to our house to change the locks for our protection. We did not let him in and said leave property. He sat in car down street for while then came back with his tablet co firming the lock change order with "Robert from PCH" on the phone trying to get us to verify with him. We refused and guy was angry asking who was paying for his trip to our house. We said "not us" then he left. Next day we got a call from number in our local KC metro area from a KC, KS number. He said he was Mike Collins from KC Region FBI and he picked up a scam ring in our area involving Robert Cashmoore and see that he scammed us. He said we were burned and at risk so needed to destroy cell phones by smashing them and home la line too. His call made sense given we were suspicious about the PCH winnings and calls from Robert Cashmoore on several New York numbers (Garden City, New York for one). Before we destroyed our cell phones he was calling about how we could be arrested for being complicit in writing the checks but he'd all possible to help. Wanted money, then no money just to talk to say they got Robert arrested & to keep us out of jail, then said other FBI agents won't not be as nice, then they're on way to local police to have us arrested. Full awareness came On Sat June 20 when real Leavenworth Police came to door on a welfare check. They asked questions, we told them about Robert from PCH and Mike the FBI agent). This ended scam, we got new cells, flagged accts, stopped some checks from clearing. They still call landline 20+ times a night. Still threatening us too.

Online Purchase

I was looking for a dress for my daughter's graduation. These dresses came up as choices under the "shopping" tab on Google. I clicked on them, saw that it was a company from North Carolina (which was untrue), and ordered 2 dresses. After a few days, the dresses had not left the warehouse. I asked to cancel the order. I was told I could not. I asked again when the dresses still hadn't arrived. After 17 days (and after the event), the dresses arrived. Both dresses were of horrible quality. You can see through them. (I attached one picture.) I contacted the company 6 times. I asked for refund information. I was never given any. The only reply I got said that I could get more merchandise for an additional $14.95 per piece. I replied to that email detailing that I didn't want any more merchandise, I just wanted my money back.

Online Purchase - Wear to Support Veterans

I ordered two shirts for a total showing $63 and some change. However, my bank card was charged $73, so I wrote them and asked about the up charge and they told me first that it was tax or shipping in the same message. So I wrote back and said their information was conflicting and maybe I was talking to AI. They wrote back and said their English was poor, but they weren’t AI and that the additional charge was for customs. I told them I thought their advertising said they were in Texas and they said the designers are in Texas, but the products are made in Hong Kong or China. There may have also been that conflicting information. I was thinking they were legitimate, but it didn’t make a lot of sense especially because one of the shirts I ordered said in God we Trust, which I thought was an odd thing for someone in China to be making. At this point, I should probably report it to my bank and see if they can chase after the company to get me a refund. After all this, I just looked it up the company and found this information and decided I may not be getting what I ordered. I have a couple different emails from them. I can share, but I’m not able to attach them at this time.

They double billed and sent two orders of a useless product. We sent one back with an RMA provided by the company almost two months ago where they said we would receive a full refund. This business is a scam and needs to reimburse me.
