Description
I was attempting to purchase a case of bourbon, Eagle Rare 12 year for approximately $** each for a total of $*** plus $** in shipping. Once paid through PayPal under the friends and family option, the “seller” stated I needed to buy 4 more bottles to make shipment worth it. I declined. Then they told me I needed insurance from shipping company. A refundable insurance policy at the cost of $630 dollars, which I would get back after product was received. I declined I called credit card company to stop payment and also PayPal but since friends and family was used I couldn’t get money back. I have several text messages, TikTok messages indicating arrangement.
