Phishing - United Covenant Financial Services

I have been continuously been called from telephone numbers from around the world. The latest call was from +1 (581) 505-4071, Sept-Iles, Quebec, Canada at 11:45AM, September 25th. I received an earlier call at 11:38 AM from +1 (830) 288-6381, Texas and 9:37 AM from, Wisconsin. This is just today. I had four calls Yesterday with the same pattern of different calling areas. United Covenant said they use software calling to find people to offer loans. I am unable to find any financial company in Virginia or anywhere else for that matter. This robocall loan calls are a daily occurrence for me for over a year, despite being on the federal do not call list. I was maybe hoping you might investigate them as a fraudulent solicitation through robocalling.

Counterfeit Product

I made an initial purchase. Found product not suitable. Returned product within a day or two of arrival. I had to get return address to return from them via email. At the same time a notified the company of return, i also cancelled the subscription. They reqired a copy of package and mailing label. Once again in delivering this info to them the subject line notified them, return and cancellation of subscription. I return items quickly, they do not lay around and that is why i could not believe when I received notification in my email of payment processed and shipping of this item. Almost a full month was between the return and them process a new transaction. Why i believe this is a scam is because they repeatedly let you know they will only do one return of there product and when i contacted them to ask why they drafted my account fir a subscription i cancelled with more than enough notice to have updated there system, they immediately said to me a policy they knew i knew, "we only do one refund". Is it not apparent this transaction was deliberate and they believe repeating the over and over again will stop you from harassing them for the money they shouldn't have taken. I do have the pictures and emails sent to them as evidence of my timeliness. I know it's a small amount but if they are doing this to alot of people, it's a large sum they are cheated people out off and a loophole that might need to be addressed.

Employment

After applying for jobs on Indeed I was contacted by this company sharing a similar name to a company i had applied for. They then followed up the original email with an interview time and ask for your licensing number (required before the first interview) and say if you don't have one to visit one of their partnered websites to get one. This is where they get you, the websites do not offer actual certifications. The reason i didn't fall for this is knowing any real business will pay for your license. I myself do not have a license and they know this based on my indeed profile. On the surface the websites seem quite legit but I could tell something was off. They make it seem as if the job is yours to have before the first "interview", that will probably never come, to try and coask people into paying for these fake courses.

Counterfeit Product - Wilson Family Palm Beach

I placed an order with The Wilson Family Palm Beach for 3 clothing items totaling $135.88. The items I received were of substandard quality and unidentifiable fabrics and were nonwearable. I reached out to the company to return the items as soon as I looked at each item, for a full refund. They offered a 10% refund! On the website, they show a policy for refunds within 30 days of receipt of products. There is no store in Palm Beach. They only ship from China. They spin stories about the business and show beautiful pictures of clothing that they are unable to provide for their customers. This is not a legitimate website and should be avoided at all cost.

I watched an infomercial about a woman in Colorado, who had been making tote purses for decades and closing her business, and that they were only a limited amount of the purses left. So I bought two. One for me one for my granddaughter. The photos of the product looked three-dimensional and exactly like a purse worth $59 would look. What I received was 6” square, folded up, cheap canvas bags that are given away for free by our grocery stores. They are worth $1 dollar, not $59.

I was contacted by a supposed debt collector for a bill that was over 4 years old. When I contacted them to figure out what this bill was for and to try and obtain a copy of this bill, I was told that they would not send me a copy of it and was told that they had already sent me a copy of it in March of 2023 when they acquired the debt, and that they do not send things out more than once. So since they sent this supposed copy of the bill three and an half years ago they refused to send me another one, even after countless times of saying that I have never received anything from them and this is the first I am hearing of this bill and that I was sent to a debt collector. After some research, I discovered that I had already paid that bill in February 2023 to the original company, prior to them ever acquiring this debt. So not I’m not sure how they were even able to get this information.

I have scheduled MRI Scanner equipment move from Florida to IL through "Joes moving and storage" on May 8th whose office is in MD. They sent me an invoice for $3,000 with payment to "Wholesale Plaza" whose account is in Florida. It didn't look right to me initially but the wire transfer is made. They sent me a tracking link. I continuously watched their tracking link. After 10 days, I emailed them numerous times. At last, I got an email saying the there's an outstanding storage fee and that is why the package is not picked up. I decided to cancel the shipment and asked for refund many times. No response. Finally, I agreed to cover 50% of the storage fee as I it already took long time without end. I paid on July 27th. Tracking link moved the status to "Picked up by courier". Status did not change for more than 12 days. Their customer service is a WhatsApp number. I called the WhatsApp number as 2 weeks passed by. No one picked up. But I get a WhatsApp message saying that the truck entered into an accident. MRI scanner is covered by insurance of $500,000. Insurance money will go the owner of the equipment which is " TRACY ILACQUA". I paid $3,000 on May 8th and additional $2,025 towards storage fee on July 27th. So far, I have neither received the equipment nor any kind of refund. I checked for major accidents involving medical imaging equipment in the last one week, there weren't any. Moving company as well as TRACY ILACQUA are fraud. I request you to investigate into the moving company. Invoices and payment receipts can be provided.
