Description

Malibu Boutique represents their business as United States. They used Fires in CA to tell a sad story about why the boutique is closing. Turns out, there’s no actual boutique and the clothes and the company is in China. They fraudulently misrepresent themselves and a company in the United States. The product is NOT quality and thinking like what is shown online. It’s not boutique quality, it is cheap material and nothing like the photos. There’s no phone # for this company and every communication is done via email. They told me I could return the items (nothing fit and it was NOT the same quality as shown), however I’d have to pay shipping back to China. I thought I was supporting a company in the United States experiencing a hardship. I’ve noticed multiple companies with similar stories on Facebook advertising as being in the US but they are all in China. How do we stop scams such as these?
