Description

They said they were selling off old inventory on crossbows from 2024 in order to make room for 2026 inventory. You had to answer four questions and then we're given three chances out of nine to scratch off the gift box that revealed the prize in this case was a hunting crossbow and said all I had to do is pay shipping and handling and it would be mailed out within five business days instead on my six business day a mysterious charge came from the Pawswhiskers trying to pull out an additional $73.56 that was never approved or negotiated. Meanwhile they have all my contact information cell number email and my physical address so I thought I had to do my due diligence and report these people
