Online Purchase - The Paw Parent / Zorano Limited/ MWNL LLC

On July 26, 2026, I placed order #37709 with The Paw Parent, operated by Zorano Limited, for a pet supplement called Macho’s Secret Powder. I paid $180.82 through PayPal. My original purchase was intended to be a one-time order. I did not knowingly request or authorize enrollment in a recurring delivery or subscription program. Nevertheless, following my purchase, The Paw Parent enrolled me in repeating deliveries. I discovered that my account had been set up for future recurring orders even though I had not requested this as part of my original purchase. This was an additional concern and caused me to question the company’s ordering and subscription practices. The merchandise from my original order was never received. Over the following weeks, I made repeated attempts to resolve the matter with The Paw Parent, including numerous emails and telephone calls. After the order remained unfulfilled, I requested that it be canceled and that my $180.82 be refunded. A Paw Parent representative identifying himself as “Wesley” subsequently stated in writing that their tracking showed the order as “delivered.” However, the USPS tracking information supplied by Zorano Limited, tracking number 9402036106715000525086, did not show delivery to me. The USPS tracking history contained several unusual discrepancies. It showed “Pre-Shipment Info Sent to USPS” on June 6, 2026, approximately seven weeks before I placed the order. The package was later shown as “Out for Delivery” in Chino, California on August 14, although my delivery address is in New York. USPS subsequently showed the package as “Held at Post Office for Postage Verification” and later “Delayed for postage assessment, Item in transit to destination.” I never received the package. After I opened an Item Not Received dispute with PayPal, The Paw Parent agreed in writing to provide a refund. However, the company asked me to close my PayPal dispute first, stating that it would issue my refund after the case was closed. I declined because closing the dispute would have eliminated my ability to continue pursuing the matter through PayPal if the promised refund was not issued. I kept the PayPal dispute open and submitted the seller’s correspondence and USPS tracking information to PayPal. PayPal subsequently resolved the dispute by issuing me a full refund of $180.82. I am therefore not seeking additional reimbursement. I am reporting this experience because of: * My unrequested enrollment in recurring deliveries after making what I intended to be a one-time purchase; * The failure to deliver the merchandise; * The conflicting representations regarding the package’s delivery status; * The unusual USPS tracking and postage-verification history; * The considerable difficulty obtaining a refund; and * The company’s request that I close my PayPal dispute before receiving its promised refund. I am submitting this information so that the appropriate organization can determine whether other consumers have reported similar experiences involving The Paw Parent and/or Zorano Limited and take whatever action it considers appropriate.

Multiple ads appeared as facebook reels and youtube shorts. The ad directed me to the website where orders could be placed. When I went to check-out, I was directed to the Shop/Shopify app to process payment. The order went into ship status almost immediately which triggered my credit card to be charged but I was not provided with any tracking information except to track through the Shop/Shopify app. I did receive an email saying the product should be delivered August 5, 2026 but that day came and went with no product nor update to the shipping info in the app. When I went to check the website for contact information, the website was now under construction and has been ever since. The only option was to submit my email contact info for “updates when the website is up and running”. I have initiated a report with Shop/Shopify as well with no further info from them.

I am a senior citizen with a ***** condition. Had ***** surgery. Found a four wheel scooter. That’s a mobility scooter that I could afford. I purchased it over six months ago. First time they say it was held up at customs at the port so they re-issued a new one they said it was delivered. I said no it was not. I am stuck at home. I cannot walk that far and nobody’s contacted me by email or phone number they proceeded to show me a picture of a signature and I told them that is nowhere near my handwriting. I said to him do you think I would take all this effort if I received it so they proceeded to send me another one now to this date August 28, 2026. They said it’s at the post office here in town. I contacted the post office with their tracking number. That’s the company tracking number and the lady at the post office said we have no package here with that number they asked for the postal tracking number. I said this is the only number they gave me so she proceeded to ask me for my name my address and I gave it to her. She said I’m sorry, sir but there is nothing here for you so I reached out to the company and I still have not heard a word back from them. I have all the emails and correspondence and I’ve told them that previously they offered me $200 in credit online I said no I need my mobility scooter so I can get out of my house and go enjoy life to this day. I have not received anything back from them or a scooter.

Other - Moneycash

Played games for hours and days on the app “ MONEYCASH” .. I was cheated out of multiple rewards (never paid for rewards I earned) plus I made in app purchases based on them advertising that more coins could be earned through these certain purchases. The amount of money I’ve spent & the amounts I was never issued after completing tasks adds up to way over $100 and that doesn’t begin to pay for the time spent testing their games. They expect you to play hundreds of rounds for small amounts of money on most games but grab you in with promises of really big amounts at certain points or if you make purchases within those games. They never pay out those big amounts and the small ones aren’t worth the time and effort. If you try to reach support, you get an automated generic response aaccusing you of doing unauthorized things to offend their standards & just shut you down. I’ve attached the email response that everyone gets once they decide they’re going to cheat you out of your earned rewards and just cut you off without any proof of what they’re accusing you of. I demanded proof but always got the same email in response accusing me of fraudulent behavior & saying they wouldn’t be helping me further. so many others on the internet have stated they received the exact email but from someone else’s name other than my “rep” which was from WILLIAM BLAZKOWICZ. It’s a scam … come to find out, that WILLIAM BLAZKOWICZ NAME is a fictional character that the company uses for AI generated responses so it looks like an actual person is working on your case. I’m so tired of being used or given false promises. I don’t understand how Apple allows it

Ordered an item on TikTok like always do, a month went by, they claimed they mailed it, but could not provide proof. I asked them what address they used, they gave a totally wrong address in the wrong city and zip code. Then claimed to have sent it again, but could not provide proof of delivery. They then said they are backlogged on cregunds. It’s been six months!!
