Description
It was an ad on Facebook for Bath and Body Works. I ordered candles and the total came to $50.63. The website looked legit with the security lock. The next day I saw a pending debit from my account to josephhegan.com not to Bath and Body Works which immediately sent up a red flag. There was a # next to the name but when you call, it doesn't go through. When I looked up the website, josephhegan.com, it shows pet products not candles, lotions, etc. I contacted my bank to let them know I believed I was scammed but the payment already went through so I am trying to dispute it now. Once the payment went through there was a reference # not a phone #. The phone # was a Colorado #.
