Employment - Fleetora Express

* Job Setup: The scam began as a work-from-home package-handling position. The victim was hired to receive packages at home, inspect them, repackage them, and ship them out to new destinations under the guise of logistics operations. * False Promises: The operation promised a fixed monthly salary (such as $4,400) plus performance bonuses, leveraging fake professionalism and official-looking state registration documents to appear legitimate. * The Trap: The victim completed a full month of continuous work and fulfilled all shipping duties. However, when payment day arrived, the scammers repeatedly delayed the transfer, claimed payments were "approved," and ultimately cut off communication or refused to pay once the work was complete. * Red Flags: The operation relied on fake employer credentials, deceptive shipping schemes (often involving reshipping stolen goods), and delayed payment tactics specifically designed to extract free labor before vanishing.

Online Purchase - Online Retailer Scam

The website was selling clothing for a low price, so I placed an order ( in May) for 10 items (mostly clothing, a coat, shoes, bed linens and a bath towel set). I should have know then, that was too good to be true! After waiting over a month. I discovered my package "was delivered" mid June. I contacting the courier customer service, via email--but nothing was done to resolve the situation. It is now July and have not received the merchandise or the money back. I later discovered ( after reviewing bank transactions) the dollar amount was taken out by PrintLa LCC and not Caruikit. I thought "Who the heck are you and when did you get involved in this mess?" I will NOT fall for this scam again!

Phishing - Home Warranty Division / James Morris

Postal letter claiming to be "Home Warranty Division" with a property code and expiration date listed. "Final Notice" at top. The letter claims to be a notice that home warranty secured by our bank (named) may be expiring or has already expired, and that we "have not contacted us yet to get your Home Warranty up to date." Letters like this use scare tactics, in the form of future costly home repairs, to compel a response by calling the listed number, which looks like a toll-free line (and probably is). The name listed at bottom is James Morris, Program Director. The phone number is stated four times in the body of the ltter. At bottom is the line "Not all consumers have previous coverage. We are not affiliated with your current mortgage holder." This is a fine-print disclaimer designed to be negligable. The reverse side of the letter has an abbreviated form of the notice in Spanish.

Advance Fee Loan

I was approved for a $2000 loan but they couldn’t deposit my funds because my bank doesn’t have a remote deposit feature. So, they had me use Cashapp to pay the first 2 payments. Which would be refunded with my loan deposit into Cashapp. After that the person Marcus Brown took the payments, then got back to me the next day and said that my Cashapp wouldn’t let them deposit the loan amount. So, I needed to take my security off. I said I don’t think so, and told him I thought this was a scam and to give me my money back! He hasn’t returned my calls or answered my emails.

Initial contact happened on April the 11th 2026 at approximately 11:15 in the morning. The individual stated his name was Franklin Jones. He spoke with a Jamaican accent. He drew me in with statements such as do you believe in God and that miracles can happen. Something I fell for hook line and sinker. He started out by asking me to send various amounts of money starting off in small amounts. Then promising the delivery of up to $50 million in prizes and a vehicle. In total I gave them over $28,000 it happened so fast I didn't even realize it was so much. Of course, this has put me in financial difficulty but I'm working to dig myself out and avoid bankruptcy. I provided him with no personal information but I do believe I provided them to account numbers I have notified the bank to have changed. HIs initial number was a Washington, DC number. He then switched to WhatsApp Audio call. He is not aware that I am reporting yet. I am trying to keep engaged, with no further money transactions, just in case he an be caught.

Employment - Sales Flow

Description In May 2025 I was just released from a two week stay from being in the hospital. I was under heavy sedation, I was in no condition to make any job/financial decition of my own. All of us are told to not make any major decisoions or sign any finiancial documents when you have had anesthesia for 48 hours or more. I received a text msg from a man but I don’t remember his name. He told me it was in regards to an appointment setter position. He asked if I was interested I said I was. He explained the job as though it was just setting appointments for businesses that have no time to do it for themselves. Said this isn’t a sales job. He told me that there is a 60 day training period where I would have to pay $6,000 but after 60 days they’d reimburse that money back. He asked if I had 2 hours available to do a zoom call with one of the managers, I said I do and he told me I would have to do an 1 hour meeting. So during the zoom meeting, he was very nice and explained the same thing about this job, said if it was something I was interested in, I said yeah just to make a little money on the side. Again he said the same thing the first person did that all I would be doing is setting up appointments. As he is getting to know me, he’d also guide me in getting a credit card and then distracting me with questions not related to what I was doing. I ended up getting a card through American Express Gold Card. And he sent me a contract through my email to sign the agreement about completing 60 days of training and then they’ll reimburse you. He kept reiterating that and then wouldn’t let me concentrate on reading the contract. He kept pressuring me as well to distract me into signing it and I did. The charge was for $6000.00 that ended up going through. During all of that he also had me download an app called Slack which when I did get in I noticed that app is on a free trial. But it’s through there that they would send me all the info I needed to know. He had me set up another zoom call for another day with another manager who would be my one on one coach, that guys name is John Taylor who I noticed lives in Brazil. In the meantime I had 60 days to watch the modules and videos explaining what I’d be doing. I started watching the videos and began to learn that what they are teaching you is exactly what they did to me. They are teaching you to scam others. The second I realized that I immediately called my credit card company to report this as fraud and a scam. I called these scammers out on what they are doing and what they are trying to make people do is so wrong. Different people this week have been texting me and emailing me threatening me to take me to court for breaching their contract. They took my money already so what would they need to send me to court for. I don’t live in the same country or state as they all do so what court are they going to make me go to. They are trying to scare me. The first person to threaten me is Tina Helzer her number is: 928-919-8540 and her email is: [email protected]) she is supposedly from the finance department. The second person to threaten me is David (his number is: +1 (754) 247-6513) he works for a 3rd party resolution center. No email provided. The other person threatening me is Samantha G (her number is 954 - 213 - 6717) she is from the legal team. I responded to them letting them know I reported them and neither of them have responded to me at all. The charge on my credit card account says it’s from Fanbasis htseducation. When I looked that up, automatically it says it’s a scam. I’ve been disputing this with my credit card company to see if they will credit it back to me and I reported SalesFlow and the system they use Fanbasis htseduction. The card company is investigating it. In the meantime people out there need to know that this is a huge scam! It’s run by so many people at the same time. Real people too. And because you actually get to talk to real people through video, you don’t even think of this being a scam kind of job but they are. I should have known better but I fell for it. This high ticket sales scheme is so bad! This isn’t right. I don’t need this stress on me at all because they are trying to make me do the same thing they are doing to others. I didn’t sign up for that. The only way I would have known this is if I followed through with the contract that’s how you learn the true description of the job after they trap you. Then it’s too late to get out of it. I pray this helps others out there because I learned that others went through the same thing. They need to be exposed and stopped please! I’ve lost $6,000 and that’s not fair! I can’t afford that. Now this is on my credit report. It’s just not right! Dollars Lost $6,000 Targeted Person's Location WA, ZIP 98117

Travel/Vacation/Timeshare

I was trying to get a local company to sell my timeshare, and they reached out to me. After numerous attempts, I finally allowed them to speak to me. They were very convincing that they could sell my timeshare in six months. After no offers, three price reductions, and calling for almost 2 years (being ignored), I tried to use the BBB then and never got a response. I called and emailed the company numerous times, and finally a manager called me back and stated they would help me sell this timeshare. I spoke to him twice, and it was the same. I have emailed them twice asking for at lease half of my money back. Originally all but the last time due to the time lapsed I wanted $1000. 00 back. No answer from this either. I have an email from them and contract version from them, but I was not able to upload.

Online Purchase - Vital Document Mart

When I searched for how to get a copy of my marriage certificate online, the first result was Vital Documents Mart. I believed it to be the same organization that my county works with (Vital Chek) that I went through previously to get my birth certificate. Needless to say, I never received the forms I paid $109 for.
