Description

The company advertised on Instagram. The Ad claimed the product was made for QVC and shipping from the USA. After ordering, I received a tracking number that said the product was shipping from Singapore. (4 shelf units, $19.95 ea./ buy2 get 2 free). I was given a tracking number and the transit company is 17track.net. The tracking information claims the packages were delivered to my front door/porch in Rego Park at 6:49 AM on 8/29 and I was home the entire day. I had been checking the tracking every day for updates. I never received anything. Furthermore, when I reached out to 17track.net, I was told they don’t actually ship, they are a 3rd party logistics information aggregation platform (?) and if I pay a monthly fee, they may be able to provide global shipping information for most carriers!!! I have complained several times to the email associated with the company and have not received any response. Thank you for your attention to this matter. Please let me know if you need any other information - this is clearly a scam. Thank you, Brigitte Myhre [email protected]
