Online Purchase - Artsweary

I ordered a top, thinking it was coming from Nashville, TN, but when it didn't arrive I attempted to cancel the order. They advised they would have to charge me an additional 15% to cancel. I said I would wait. I placed the order on July 16 and have sent three emails asking about the status, with no response. Today I found an address on their website of: Room 1,Room 422, 4th Floor, AVIC Factory No. 5, No. 1 Huli Avenue, Xiamen City, Fujian Province. I guess I'll never see my top or my money. Can you help? Or at least advise others to not buy from this company. Beautiful clothes.

Other - Phishing

Automated recording left on voicemail referenced my first and last name, current address, and said they were from "document delivery services." Said they had been retained to deliver legal documents, would attempt to deliver them to my home or place of employment, would only attempt twice and if failed would "classify as a failed action to serve" and the pending matter would proceed further with or without my consent. Never said what the matter was regarding, never identified a company name, never said who they were "retained" by, and never gave their name. The callback number was different than the number that called me.

Phishing - Punchbowl Spoof

I received what appeared to be a legitimate Punchbowl invitation from someone I knew, but when I clicked the invitation, I was prompted to sign in with my Google account in order to view it. The page appeared to be a Google sign-in page, but it was actually part of a phishing scam designed to obtain my login credentials. Because the invitation came from a familiar sender and appeared to be associated with Punchbowl, it was extremely convincing and easy to mistake for a legitimate invitation. I later learned that legitimate Punchbowl invitations do not require recipients to enter their Google email password to view an invitation. I am reporting this because the scam uses Punchbowl’s name and branding in a way that could easily mislead consumers and compromise their personal accounts.

Fake Invoice/Supplier Bill - Relay Wire / Web Envy / Med Pulse Fake Invoice Phishing and Identity Theft Scam

Online Purchase - Helixora

This company pretended to be the Swiss health supplements company Helixara US, with operations in North Carolina. The products being sold were similar to Helixara and I placed an order using my American Express. When I hit the PURCHASE button, I was transferred over to a Chinese site where my payment was received by PayPal. AMEX logged the purchase only as PayPal and I suspected that the business was not legitimate. I realized afterword that the website advertized was Helixora-us not Helixara-us. The phone number was not real, it is a WhatsApp account using a California area code - not North Carolina. I checked the chat about Helixora and someone had checked the age of the company (a few months) and had Google estimate the odds of the company being fraudulent (over 60%).
