Description

Scammer posted a Joanne sale through facebook. Copied the entire website and enabled basket and paymrnt process, aaking for shpping and billing address of card, enail and phone number. Sales were 90%off due to closure of all stores. Made the payment. Received a payment confirmation with sales number indicating that items were getting ready for shipping. Their phone number is a pre recorded line to insurance and other services sales. No way to contact them. The email address bounces back. The business name of the store Joann and contact information provided by them in the website is slightly different. The fake contact information they provide is: • Phone: Call us at 1-800-525- 4961. Our lines are open Monday through Saturday from 9:00 AM to 9:00 PM EST and Sunday from 10:00 AM to 7:00 PM EST • Email: Drop us a message at service@joann- fabricsale.com. We strive to respond to all inquiries within 24-48 hours They are using the Joann store address on their fake website. My purchase was on March 3, 2025. They succesfully charged my card on March 13, 2026. Bank of America provided me with a temporary refund of the charges the next day after I reported the case, while they investigate my report.
