Description

Im out of state for a conference. I live in Utah but noticed that Virginia has recreational cannabis. I have a med card for Utah and make online orders in utah all the time. An order was made through the website, and the website works a lot like other dispensary websites I work with in Utah. I tried to make a payment but for “some reason,” I couldn’t get it to work. So, I contacted the seller through the sms chat and they directed me to pay through Zelle. I wasn’t totally thrown off by that because in Utah you can’t pay debit for cannabis, you have to use dutchiepay or something like that. So it didn’t set any red flags there. But, then the seller told me I needed to sign up for delivery insurance according to state law. I looked and it was going to be a “refundable” $399 charge that I would get back as soon as the delivery was complete. This is where I stopped and told the seller that this wasn’t right. They said it was state law and I would get a refund. I told them that was absolutely not a thing. I didn’t hear back after that.
