Online Purchase - Harper Wells Boston / Zhang E-Commerce LLC Online Retail Scam

Website advertising: EASY RETURNS Shop with confidence. If it’s not the right fit, our hassle-free returns make it simple to send it back. Easy returns seems to mean a $50 fee to return internationally. Quality is not as advertised; sizes do not fit. They have offered a refund of 20% of the purchase amount and keep the items. It is not "simple" or "hassle-free." So I can spend $50 and lots of paperwork hassle to return it internationally or accept $30 and keep the items that I would never wear because of the quality and don't fit.

Employment

I applied for what I believed was a legitimate work-from-home Package Specialist position with Track Freight Line Inc. Throughout the hiring process and while I was working, I communicated with individuals identifying themselves as supervisors, including James Battle ([email protected], (380) 227-3349), Ashley Martinez ([email protected], +1 (380) 234-1340 and (380) 226-6283), and Felicia Torres ([email protected], (380) 246-2416). I was instructed to receive packages at my home, inspect the contents, take photographs, repackage them, and forward them using shipping labels that the company was supposed to provide. As part of the onboarding process, I provided identification and direct deposit information because I believed this was a legitimate employer. I began receiving packages and uploading the requested information through the company’s online employee portal. After conducting my own independent research, I discovered multiple reports describing this type of operation as a fraudulent reshipping scheme. I also found a BBB Scam Tracker report involving Track Freight Line Inc. with similar contact information and nearly identical circumstances to my own experience. As soon as I became aware of these reports, I immediately stopped participating and have not shipped any additional packages. I currently have two packages in my possession that I have not forwarded. After I stopped participating, I began receiving emails threatening legal action, police reports, and other consequences if I did not continue working. These communications appeared to be attempts to pressure me into continuing to reship packages despite my decision to stop. I am submitting this report to document my experience and help warn other job seekers who may be targeted by similar employment offers. Based on my experience and the information I discovered through my own research, I believe this may be a fraudulent employment and reshipping operation.

I should have known better, I admit that. But, when the ad stated that their product would “correct almost any vision problem automatically” I was suckered into buying a pair. I have had to wear glasses since I was 9 yrs. old to correct myopia (nearsightedness). After all, the website had testimonials from doctors and ophthalmologists (I later found that these were fictitious along with the “money back guarantee” that promised “100% money back.” I have yet to see a dime and it has been a month since I made my request. Lastly, the lying scammers promised a product of “high quality.” Well, I have had maybe a hundred pairs of eyeglasses since I was 9 yrs. old, and these are, by far, the worst quality eyewear that I have ever owned. They are flimsy, and actually dangerous, due to a sharp edge where the bridge meets the nose so that if I were to press down hard it would cut my nose (and I would have to do this often, because they fit so poorly.) I don’t know if the glasses actually “block blue light” but if what I have read so far is correct, the effect of blue light in the production of eye fatigue is highly overrated.. You are better off briefly closing your eyes…and while you are at it , take a nap.. The effects of sleep on the body, including the eyes, is tremendous and overwhelmingly positive!

Said the truck broke down, rerouted the packages. Said the shipping labels were damaged, had to go back to the depot. Said delivery attempted but they needed a signature. Next thing I know, delivery complete, without my signature. They keep delaying information, there is no packages, I think they delay the "packages" so it goes past the time I can stop payment and get the charge reversed.

Tax Collection - Tax Advisor Phone Phishing Scam

Over this past week (August 4-7th), People pretending to be with “American Tax Advisor” have contacted me multiple times under the names Emily & Ashley, regarding “tax balances or unfilled tax returns” and that it was urgent to call back. This number I was supposed to call back was always a different number than the one used to first call me and even differed between phone calls. I know this is a scam because the voice messages left by these numbers were the same A.I. voice regardless of it being “Emily” or “Ashley” and were so quiet they were barely audible, I needed headphones despite my strong hearing to hear the voice that left me the message. The contacting phone numbers and who to call back were different each time and included: (844) 658-2117, (877)-541-5718, (877) 351-6283, (877) 776-9668, and finally (833) 419-8310.

Other - Online Ticket Scam

This scam is a switch & bait. The company posted a fake American Airline ticket round trip from Tampa to DC for a discounted price of $286.00 per person. Once we paid for the tickets, they called us back next day stating that American did not have those seats available nor that fight and that we had to take an all together different flight with a different airline on different dates and at a higher cost. We also have to pay $360 in baggage fees on top of the $815 for the tickets. We are American Airline card holds and members so we do not pay baggage fees when we fly and we explained this to the agent but he didn't care. The agent sent an email and pressured my husband to confirm it all while still pretending to search for alternate flights for us. My husband asked if he could wait and let us call him back to see if our friends could pick us up in Richmond, VA instead of DC. We told the agent we will calll him back. During this time the agent booked us on a flight with Breezy Airline to Richmond and they processed charges to our credit card all before we could call him back to confirm anything. Once we called back to ask why did they book the flight without our approval, the agent said you hit confirm on the email, my husband explained he thought the email was to continue to work with the agent to book the new flight. There were no refunds and we could not make any changes to the tickets. We were stuck with two tickets that we never approved or wanted. I can only assume the agents at Best Ticket Fare are working for Breezy Airlines, using American Airlines as the bait to purchase tickets.

Employment - Amazon Imposter Employment Scam

They contacted me by text saying they had a job opportunity where I would commentate and rate products at Amazon for a commission and bonuses. That I would not have to buy anything. They assigned me a trainer named Emily Smith. She had helped me open up accounts on the Exodus, Paybis and Cash App websites. It was very sophisticated rouse working on legitimate websites. In addition they had a so-called social worker group called “Amazon work group 104” chatting with each other, teaching each other on the Signal site on how to operate the business and it seemed very real and convincing. They were always chatting in the background as I was being trained by Emily Smith. I chatted with them also and they answered back so that made it feel all the more real. She had me set up all the above mentioned crypto sites and was having me passed through the money I made on these crypto sites every time I did a rating session on products. I started at the introduction level. I would do 30 products get paid commissions and then pass those commissions to the crypto sites and then bring them back to the worksite. It was convoluted. I initially figured they were doing crypto mining, or something where it helped the value of their crypto. Ethereum is the crypto they used. Everything was going along fine until I hit a what they called a “lucky bonus” where you got a very large payoff for one product. They said it was random and happened very very rarely. The only trouble was on this large commission, you had to have more money in the workstation. They call it the workerbee site. Just as long as I got the balance up to the required amount (which was turning into the thousands) was the only way to get the payoff completed on the super bonus. . I fell for the Random and rear excuse the first time and covered the payment with around $500 of my own money in several payments. I primarily worked between this Workbee site that was on the Signal and Exodus crypto site.. Then I got a super bonus even bigger than the last one which Emily says “almost never happens”. Here is where they wanted $2100 to cover the bonus payment. That’s when I put the brakes on and got real. I started complaining to Emily that this doesn’t feel right. I am putting in more money than I’m receiving. I told her that this is feeling like a scam now. She said no it wasn’t and then she’s been doing this for years. She even offered “as my new friend” to give me a portion of the $2100 and I would pay her back after the transaction with a large portion of my commission. I told her that if she had all this experience in this business and was sure of the payout, why can’t she go ahead and give me the whole $2100. She finally said she would put up $1500 but would never agree to pay the whole $2100 though. She always left $500 to $600 that I had to pay. The other thing that was interesting was when the dispute started about making this $2100 payment, all the chatter from the work group that was always happening in the background on Signal stopped. Emily kept talking to me, but the chatter stopped. I questioned her about that. She had no good answer. She tried every angle to get me to put the money up, but I refuse and she finally stopped talking. I have also not talked to her since. I never got Emily’s personal phone number but do have a copy of all the communications and photos going back back-and-forth with the training on the Signal site. If you’re interested in getting it, I’ll be more than happy to get that to you if you could show me how to copy it off the Signal site. Thank you for your attention in this matter.

Debt Collections

The scammers call my phone every day to leave a message. I answered ones. They wanted me to divulge my social security number then threatened that a law suit will be filed against me when I declined and asked what kind of company is this. I asked for them to stop calling and the rep stated “ calls will continue every day” sarcastically and harassingly and hung up. I tried to call back for company information, the new rep was almost expecting my call, answered the phone like it was a personal line saying hello again no company info and again threatened to harass me every day until I give my personal information to them. The second person also advised me that they are filing a law suit against me and again hung up on me. I blocked the phone number

Home Improvement - Home Improvement

I am requesting that my complaint be escalated to executive management. I paid nearly $4,000 for my flooring project and have not received a confirmed installation date. Instead, I have been given repeated delays and inconsistent information. This has been very frustrating, especially after paying such a significant amount. I am requesting a clear installation date immediately. If my project cannot be scheduled promptly, I want to discuss my options, including a refund. Please have someone from executive management contact me as soon as possible to resolve this matter.

Phishing - Supplement Scam

I watched a long promo video by Oprah Winfrey and Jenna Bush promoting this "Thermo Burn Product", I purchased 6 bottles for $294 and a 60 day return. Then I became suspicious and immediately wanted to cancel the order, but their website was non existent! I received a receipt and contacted "Digistore24" and told them I wanted a refund. They gave me an address and RMA#. I mailed back the product but lost the tracking # and they said they could not track the pkg by the RMA#, but gave me an e.mail to where the pkg would go. When I entered: [email protected], a response said this e-mail was tied to "online supplement sales scams".
