I ordered the Anchor Anti-snore wedge pillow and when it arrived it was completely crushed and deformed and entirely useless as a pillow. I contacted kopflo and sent 4 photos of the deformed pillow. Their response was to inform me that I can either accept 40% of my money in return or ship them the product in it's original packaging by registered mail to Australia. Their website says they have a 30-night money back guarantee. They are scammers who do not stand behind their products and hide in Australia.

If I chose to bring someone, it would be 39.98 at that moment (like I’m going to just give out my info over the phone-sarcasm there) and it would go from a 4 day 3 night trip to a 7 day 6 night for only 59.00 per night for extra person. Went to their website, every other option in the drop down menu works except the “my account login” which I had set up with my email over the phone. I wanted to look at it before deciding.

Bank/Credit Card Company Imposter

i was told by a caller that they were the fraud department from Citi Bank and someone had opened a credit card in my name online and charged $2,000 at a Walgreen store in New York. A $1,000 Apple gift card and 2 $500 gift cards. were purchased. Also they told they they would fill out the paperwork to report this thief. After getting disconnected several times and them calling me back on different numbers I thought it was a scam. They did know my full name. They didn't ask any questions pertaining to address, SS# or credit card number. They asked if I had my credit card in hand and I didn't. The last four digits they provided on the card that they said was used was not my credit card number I never told them it wasn't my last four digits only that I was looking for my card which I have. I called Citi Bank to check if my cards were used and they said no. They used the following numbers when calling me back 858-290-8768 and 585-303-3759.. i thought they may be of some help. What can i do at this point to protect my identity because in the conversation the lady mentioned that someone must have my identity in order to have opened the card,

On April 29, I received an email stating "We would like to inform you that your order has been sent to the warehouse for fulfilment, once your order is out for delivery we will send you tracking details to track your order and see the shipment status." No tracking number. No response to my emails to follow up. No package. Today, August 24, 2026, I went to their website but "the domain name registration has expired. If you are the domain owner, please contact [email protected] to get the renewal taken care of." So, clearly a scam. Scammers are the scum of the Earth.

Counterfeit Product - SDS Gun

I bought several things from the store. One thing was what I thought a real TA31 ACOG. This is a very expensive firearm optic that is very renowned for durability and use in the global war on terror. I purchased it from the store for around $500 secondhand. I held onto it for a couple months, used it on my rifle a couple times, no real damage was done to it; in fact, I gave it a lot of love while it was in my possession. I decided to sell it back to SDS guns because I needed the money for several important expenses in my life. Turns out they sold me a fake and they wouldn’t even take it back for a $100.

These people will not stop calling me from dozens of different numbers, no matter how many numbers I block or how many times I tell them to formally and legally take me off their call list. I am registered on the national Do Not Call list and they still call me up to four times a day, sometimes only an hour apart. They've called from all 50 states and now from Canada, claiming to be dozens of different financial companies insisting that my "application" for a "personal loan" was approved. I have never applied for any kind of loan with any company, have worked with one singular bank all my life, and have no interest in any kind of loan. This has been disrupting my peace for months on end and something has to be done about it, this is blatant and exhausting harassment.

Employment

They reached out to me pretending to be a recruiter by the name of Olivia at the phone number (833) 557-9332 claiming to represent a Recruiting Engine LLC. Olivia offered a job opportunity and to have an onboarding specialist contact me later in the day, at which I happily agreed since I am looking for work. After a while someone named Emma at the phone number (719) 406-5125 reached out, at which point I told her that I was busy but I would welcome the details and payment information. Over the course of the following 4 hours, Emma walked me through the job which was a promoting job and I initially asked if I would be required to make any kind of purchases or orders, and Emma had said there wouldn't be. Emma has me use an invitation code to set up an account with the website (https://brownselite.com), which I do and then Emma has me log out of that account and into a "training" account that Emma supposedly just set up for me. Emma asked me to click the "promote" button to begin one of the sets for the day on this training account and $198.00 was earned by the end of the single set, Emma said that %20 of that would be transferred into my main account. Emma then asked me to sign back into my account, and I did to confirm the %20 had been added to the initial $20 for the sign up, making my total to be ~$60. Emma asked me to click the "promote" button on my account now, I followed suit and once finished earned a measly $6, which had my total at $66. At this point Emma asked if I had cashapp or coinbase to transfer $34 into the account to continue sets for the day. I told them that I didn't keep money in any accounts, and the accounts only existed to accept deposits from work done at which point I withdraw and keep my cash secured on my persons or in a safe. They threw a fit about this, and I told them that I were reporting this activity to the better business bureau for attempting to scam and wasting my time, and here we are now.

I am an owner of a condo unit and a Board Member at the Blue Heron Resort in Union Washington. A (completely unaffiliated) Web site is looking to rent units at our Blue Heron Resort. The photos on their Web site are of my unit (4-1 - 3-bedroom condo). They show theses same photos for every unit they list as for rent. Our office staff says that several times vacationers have shown up thinking they have rented a unit from AtTheBlue only to find that none are available, they lost their money, and there is no record of their rental reservation which makes our community look poorly. The https://attheblue.com/ (fradulent) web site states that they have staff on site (they do not) and offers our real property address, photos of our beach, community center and other amenities. Our legit Web site (https://blueheroncondos.com/) has the correct information for our community. Their parent company Web site also lists photos of our beach on their 'rental' page: https://rentyourshare.vip/ We would like the At the Blue service to demonstrate their affiliation with Blue Heron owners or discontinue their Web site.
