Description
Using an influencer (probably AI) on Instagram, advertised what were supposed to be mercury glass silver christmas trees about a foot tall, set of 5. When you click on the link it takes you right to the page where you add to cart. What came were 5 plastic, cheap, maybe 5-inch tall trees that are a joke. Such a scam - total misrepresentation from the Instagram ad. They may say the description was on the website and is accurate, but that's not seen at any time in the process when you click on the link from the instagram ad. I asked for a refund and they said sorry we'll give you back $3 USD. Total fraud.
