Home Improvement - Home Improvement - The Ducts Experts

Called for duct cleaning services & Imran posing from The Ducts Experts confirmed appointment for Nov 1st,2016 few days back.Then rescheduled the time slot for several times & finally confirmed between 2-2:30pm. Then on the day of the appointment I got a call from Yashpal.Since Imran advised to ask for an appointment ID when the guys call before arriving I did & Yashpal had no clue. Then he told that The Ducts Experts don't have technicians to perform the service & they only take care of the marketing where they offer too good to be true prices.I called Imran after this when he started making up stories & that's when I blocked his phone number.

Counterfeit Product - Online Retailer Scam

The company website says that if defective/wrong product delivered it is responsible for shipping and refund. I was sent the wrong size shoes and they will not pay for return shipping and are only willing to give me 35% refund if I chose not to pay for returning them. I sent all the requested photos that clearly indicate they sent a size 43 (size 10+ equiv in US per Europe/China shoe charts) and the shoe measures 10 1/8 ". I ordered a size 9 shoe. the website also states that size charts are linked with every product - there was no sizing chart for these shoes. shipping to China costs $90-120

This is a "META" payment to review ads scam. You would send them a deposit to establish a link to you, in my case through my credit card.

Online Purchase

Let me first start by stating I consider myself pretty savvy. I am a well seasoned internet item purchaser, usually from reputable companies like Nordstrom. What was I thinking? I will attach a picture of what was being advertised to me on instagram and what I received. You have got to be joking. This website is a piece of trash, false advertising, deception. I am more than happy to return said crap. I contacted the company and this is what I received: Dear Penny, Hello. If you wish to return the item, you will need to cover the return shipping cost according to our return policy. Since international shipping is complicated and expensive, I can check with our sales manager to apply for a partial refund for you, and you don’t need to send the sweater back. Would this work for you? Best regards, The Flycola Shop I find it interesting that even they realize then sent me crap and don’t want it back. I responded stating I would be contacting BBB, my CC and requested the return shipping address. I have not received a response back yet. Make note that I DID check their website for returns before I ordered to ensure returns were a possibility. Little did I expect that they would be to another COUNTRY apparently. This is a SCAM. I am certain I am not the only one who has made a purchase and received trash, yet the website is up and running. It is infuriating. I live in Vermont, it’s beautiful here, but money does not go on trees. What I want is a full refund.

I purchased two dresses from this company. It took forever for them to come in. I contacted the company numerous times with no answer from them until I contacted my bank. The merchandise is very cheap. One of the dresses you can see right through it. When I received the merchandise it said it was shipped from New York. They want me to pay $20 per dress. They don't even weigh a pound total and return it back to India. They want $40 for two dresses that are going to go into the same package. Stay away from this company. It's a total scam. They offered me 10% back for a total of what I paid which was $113.32.

Phishing

The scammer says, "RESPONSE TO THIS NOTICE REQUESTED. It is important you contact our office at (phone number) upon receiving this notice to avoid any unnecessary delays in your coverage before 10/23/26. This notice is to inform you that the property's home warranty, at [address] may be expiring or has already expired... Failure to call and prevent a potential lapse in coverage could result in you being liable for all costs associated with any home repairs ... We reserve the right to revoke your eligibility for service coverage after the Expiration Date..." The letter tries to instill a sense of fear in the reader with capital letters, a phony time crunch, and threats. The letter implies that the reader has a pre-existing financial relationship with the scammer. The letter also pretends that I'm customer FHOMAJXQ7006. That's baloney. I'm not their customer. I don't even own the house mentioned in the letter. The address they give belongs to a relative who let me house-sit there for a couple of months while I was going through a divorce. My relative doesn't have a pre-existing financial relationship with the scammer either, because my relative is not pro-scam. This letter is clearly meant to target senior citizens, people with intellectual disabilities, and people without much financial sophistication.

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

I ordered a birdbath that was advertised as being 20" high and weighing 11.5 lbs. What I received was a 3" high (less than 1 lb) copy of the birdbath. When I contacted CedarandTin's customer service, I was told that in order to receive a refund, I would have to return the product to them in Hong Kong and bear the return shipping cost myself. As an alternative, they first offered me a 25%, then a 35%, then finally a 50% refund - all of which offers I refused. I don't want to pay for a useless knick knack. I have contacted my credit card company and disputed the charge - providing them with a copy of the website where the 20" high product was offered as well as copies of the emails between me and the Merchant's Customer Service representatives. I have demanded that Bank of America remove the $40 from my credit card and am relying on them to resolve the financial part of the problem. This Merchant is offering one product, taking payment, and sending a completely different, less valuable, and worthless product in its place. By insisting that I pay the cost of returning the product to Hong Kong they are basically forcing me to keep and pay for something other than that which I ordered. This is a typical bait and switch which I want to warn other consumers to avoid.

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.

Identity Theft - Identity Theft Scam

There is a website that is using my address and phone number for their contact information. I have had several people calling me to ask how they could make a payment on this website. I do not have a website, nor do I sell anything like that online. I do not know why they are using my home address and my phone number for this. The website is Redpigtoolsoffer.com

I have tried to message them several times because they don't give you a phone number where I can reach them to tell them to cancel my subscription and do not send me anymore product because the last batch they sent had mold on it and they just kept on sending me the products and charging by bank account. Terrible Company to do business with. They charged on bank account again on October 17th for $44.90. I had to change my card as a last resort.
