Description

I was on Facebook, when I came across the add for Joann-clearances .com it was in the top bar it looked legit. Had all the items that were on clearance. I picked out items it brought me to the check out put in the card information payment was accepted and received a confirmation number. Never thought no more about it. Then it had been a few weeks so I went back to the saved site and rechecked the order it said it was being sent through to Track718.com. I got information from them that my items were being processed I ordered this stuff on 6-21-2025 received and email which looked legit. It showed it was accepted in Shenzhen China on the 6-24 then it went on to Hong Kong then it was at customs. It showed it went through customs was excepted it was in California then it got shipped to Illinois then onto Florida from that point was being shipped to my address. Then yesterday 7-24-25 I received a message from the Track718 that my package was delivered it was put next to the mailbox or in it. That didn't happen because for one the package would have been to big for the stuff that I ordered. I called my local post office to ask if they had delivered anything they said no. She told me that I had no large items scheduled to come to my address for the rest of the week. So then I thought that maybe it would be coming by UPS when I checked the tracking number it does not exist. Then I checked the post office website and the number did not exist there either. I was told by the post office that this not the first time this has happened with this tracking company. I then looked that tracking company up and I supposedly got an agent I told them about the situation they apologized for the inconvenience said that I needed to talk to a live agent I put in my number then a screen popped up and wanted $5.00 refundable after the conversation but wanted a credit card number for the conversation with this agent. Then as scroll down more it's states that if do not cancel with the agent after the conversation my card would be charged 94.99 for the service. I know that it all looked really legitimate but these people behind all of this are getting better, luckily I only got scammed for $48.13 and I used a prepaid credit card but I hate to think how many more people this is effecting. I went back through to Joann fabrics website called the number wasn't able to get through to anyone. Not sure if they are even aware that it is happening. With this Track718 it shows through detail of every move that supposedly my package was coming they are definitely slick because it's precise.
