Employment - Forwardleag LLC

Since May 13th 2026, I was contacted by this organization with a job offer that at the time I had no clue was a scam. The job was to send packages to my home then take them to the post office. Up until June 24th I received regular calls from this organization until the day they listed as my payment date. My mental capacity limited me from doing a proper vetting of these people and resulted in them stringing me along for this entire month.

Retail Business

The salespeople told me that their service carried a lifetime guarantee. The contract does not reflect that at all, and when I brought up the issue to them, they refused to amend the contract and one even tried to argue the point with me, as if I can't read plain English. Either the salespeople should stop making that claim, or their contract should reflect it. Notice how on the attached contract, it says that "Should a review referenced above become reposted by the same review platform after being successfully removed, Erase.com will attempt to remove the review again at no additional charge.", as if attempting to remove the review (what does that even mean, specifically?) is the same as guaranteeing the review's removal for life.

Online Purchase - PrimeLoad Trailers

I am submitting this complaint to formally request an investigation regarding a trailer purchase transaction that I believe may involve fraudulent or deceptive business practices. I entered into an agreement to purchase a trailer from a seller and, as part of the transaction, I sent a wire transfer payment of $2,999 directly to the trailer seller. After the transaction moved forward, I was informed of additional unexpected charges related to transportation. I was asked to pay an additional $1,349.50 for what was described as transportation insurance, which I paid in good faith in order to avoid delays and complete the delivery process. After making that payment, I was contacted again and instructed to pay an additional $1,675 allegedly due to an issue involving a State Trooper during transportation. At this point, I became seriously concerned about the legitimacy of the transaction. Based on the sequence of events, repeated requests for additional payments, and the lack of transparency regarding transportation charges, I believe I may have been the victim of fraud or deceptive business conduct. I have more than 15 years of experience working with vehicle transportation and I have never encountered a situation where transportation-related charges continue increasing after payments have already been made and while the shipment is supposedly already in transit. I respectfully request that your office investigate this matter and determine whether the seller and any associated transportation parties are operating lawfully and whether consumer protection laws may have been violated. I am prepared to provide all supporting evidence, including: Wire transfer confirmation for $2,999; Proof of payment for the additional $1,349.50; Emails, messages, and communications; Transportation information and requests for additional funds; Purchase documentation. I respectfully request guidance regarding any available options to recover my funds and prevent further losses. Thank you for your attention and assistance.

Home Improvement

On Saturday, June 20, my daughter and I became trapped inside our home because our front door deadbolt would not unlock from the inside. At 7:09 a.m. we called Westpoint Locksmith after reading its positive reviews and its website explaining how to avoid locksmith scams. We were told a locksmith would arrive within 25 minutes. When no one arrived, we called again at 8:27 a.m. (no answer) and 8:29 a.m., when we were told the original locksmith had been in an accident and another locksmith was being dispatched. At 8:46 a.m., we received a call from (323) 486-6080 advising the locksmith was on the way. He arrived at approximately 9:20 a.m. Without providing an estimate or obtaining approval for the work, he immediately began cutting and destroying the malfunctioning deadbolt. The removal took approximately three minutes, after which he charged $525 for the lock removal plus a $125 service call. He then offered to install what he described as a "Bold" deadbolt for $325 and persuaded us to replace a second, functioning deadbolt at a purported "30% special discount." The replacement lock does not appear to be a genuine Bold product, and he stated he could provide only the two factory keys. When payment was requested, he refused to accept a credit card despite Westpoint Locksmith's website stating that credit cards are accepted. Instead, he insisted on payment through Venmo and Zelle. While attempting payment, he became increasingly impatient, stood over me while I contacted my bank, and pressured us until payment was completed. I am nearly 80 years old and felt intimidated and uncomfortable throughout the transaction. The payments were directed to: Venmo: @techniUSA84 Zelle: [email protected] The Zelle account appears to be associated with Locksmith Pro LA (213-566-4517), owned by Maayan Assayag, not Westpoint Locksmith. The handwritten receipt provided contained no business name, license number, address, or telephone number, and sales tax was improperly charged on the entire amount. The work also unnecessarily damaged our front door by aggressively hacking away the lock. I selected Westpoint Locksmith because of its published claims that it is an ethical company and because its website specifically warns consumers about the very practices I experienced, including: Failure to provide an estimate before beginning work. Excessive pricing after work begins. Pressure to use cash or electronic payment methods instead of credit cards. Lack of proper business identification and licensing information. Based on these facts, I believe I was the victim of a classic locksmith scam involving deceptive business practices, gross overcharging, and financial abuse of an elderly consumer. I am nearly 80 years old, and believe these actions constitute financial elder abuse under California law. I respectfully request a full investigation, reimbursement of the excessive charges, and any appropriate enforcement action.

Online Purchase - Aavantacr (Aavant)

I visited the website, and it appeared legitimate with enough accurate information to make me feel comfortable with my purchase. However, the only accepted payment method was cryptocurrency, which should have been a red flag. Paying this way leaves you with no recourse through a credit card company if the charge is fraudulent. I was required to create an account, and the website shows my transaction as completed. I selected and paid for standard shipping, but despite several attempts to ask about my order, I have received little to no response. If something seems too good to be true, it probably is. I should have known better. Do not buy from this company unless you are prepared to lose your money.

I discovered a few months later they were charging me $29 each month for some membership. I called and I guess in some fine print somewhere when I purchased the cutting board I somehow agreed to a membership that they billed me for monthly. I canceled the "membership" and moved on with my life. I just logged into my credit card account and realized they never stopped billing me. That is 10 consecutive months of a $29 charge.

Online Purchase - Mary's Closet

I placed an order on this website on April 29, 2026. Shipping information (tracking) was sent May 5, 2026. (YunExpress tracking number: YT2612500706484339). The store did NOT say items were shipping from China but the shipping indicated it was shipped from China. That was the last time shipping/tracking was ever updated. I have had multiple reach outs with the company: 1) Monday, Jun 1, 8:33?PM approximately 1-month with no shipping updates, asking for an update. 2) Tuesday, Jun 2, 8:29?PM Mary's Closet responded saying the item was not lost but they " recommend continuing to monitor the tracking link, as updates may appear once the carrier scans the parcel at the next stage of transit." 3) Saturday, Jun 13, 10:50?AM, TWO weeks later, still no updates, I emailed customer service requesting a full refund. 4) Sunday, Jun 14, 10:10?AM, customer service responded, denying the full refund request, stating "At this time, we are unable to process a cancellation and refund request as your order remains active and is still being processed through the shipping network. As mentioned previously, we are currently experiencing temporary technical issues with our tracking system, which may cause tracking information to display errors or stop updating. Please rest assured that our team is actively working to resolve the issue, and the tracking information should update again once the system is restored and the carrier completes the next scan. We kindly ask for your patience while we continue to monitor your shipment. If there are any further updates regarding your order, we will be happy to assist you." 5) Monday, June 15, 10:21?AM: I replied stating that "I have been more than patient throughout this process. I placed this order on April 29, and it has now been over six weeks without delivery. The last tracking update was on May 5, and there has been no evidence that the package is actively moving through the shipping network." I then gave them an offer stating: "I am willing to give your company until June 29 (two months after I placed the order) to either: Deliver the order, or Issue a full refund." I then stated, in writing, that "if neither of these actions has occurred by June 29, I will proceed with filing complaints with the Better Business Bureau and disputing the charge with my credit card company/bank for goods not received." 6) Today is June 29, 2026, SIXTY days since I ordered one dress on their website, they took my money and still have not shipped the dress. I am now reporting them.

Phishing - Apria Impostor

I received a text message from 1-855-970-8980 that stated I had a certain balance due, and they wanted me to call a different number, 1-833-641-6706, to set up a payment method. I called the number, and a man with a very thick Middle Eastern accent answered. Thinking that it was a legitimate Apria representative, I gave my first and last name and date of birth. I was asked to hold. At that point, it clicked in my head that the text was suspicious. I immediately hung up and called Apria's billing dept. They said that I owed a lower balance, but not the balance that was requested in the text message. Apria confirmed the text was a scamming/phishing attempt, and they verified that they already had my payment method on file. I wanted to make everyone aware of this.

Employment

On or about June 29, 2026, I received an unsolicited iMessage from a sender claiming to have seen my “Nextdoor” post seeking a part-time driver for my 80-year-old mother. The sender offered driving services for doctor appointments, therapy, errands, and visits with grandchildren (approximately 4 days per week, 3 hours per day, at $500 per week paid in cash). The conversation quickly turned into a request for my personal information. The sender identified themselves as “Holly Dawson” (and later as “John”). They provided two Fort Worth, Texas addresses: • 10350 Ector Dr, Fort Worth, TX 76108 • 13537 Brett Jackson Rd, Fort Worth, TX 76179, United States I was then directed to click an “Identity Verification” link: verify.stripe.com. Believing this was legitimate for the job application process, I clicked the link and submitted photos of my driver’s license (front and back). After submission, the conversation continued with the sender congratulating me on being “hired” and asking additional questions (e.g., whether I own a house). I later realized this was a scam when I reviewed the screenshots and the suspicious nature of the rapid “hiring” process and verification link. Information Compromised: • Full name • Current address • Driver’s License (front and back photos, including DL number, photo, DOB, signature) Suspect Information: • iMessage sender (phone number visible in screenshots) • Fake name(s): Holly Dawson / John • Phishing domain: verify.stripe.com • Provided fake addresses in Fort Worth, Texas I have attached four screenshots (IMG_2688.jpg, IMG_2689.jpg, IMG_2690.jpg, IMG_2691.jpg) showing the full conversation. This appears to be an employment scam designed to obtain personally identifiable information for identity theft. I have already placed credit freezes with Equifax, Experian, and TransUnion, notified my bank, and plan to contact the Texas DMV regarding my compromised driver’s license. I am filing this complaint to assist in any investigation.
