This scammer impersonates a mother/daughter artisan jewelry business in Santa Fe, NM that is going out of business and selling their remaining stock of hand-crafted jewelry at deeply discounted prices. The jewelry that arrives is mass-produced, cheap costume jewelry, worth far less than the "deeply discounted" prices paid by the victims.

Online Purchase - Product Not Received/No Refund

Had ads to claim an effort to fill pre-orders to fund getting orders filled and shipped. I ordered 7/10/25, then was emailed a pre-order updates on 9/20, 10/25, then 11/3, then emailed a shipping target for December on 12/10/25. Then they emailed on 2/24/26 that the order was cancelled and refunded. On 2/25/26 they emailed payouts were frozed due to a pending lawsuit with Shopify. On 4/30/26 I recieved a reply after I emailed them to inquire again about my refund that did not credit my credit card account. They replied sharing an image to confirm that Shopify denied the refund, and instructed me to try to have my bank initiate a chargeback and they would accept it right away. This is conveniently much past the time frame that allows me to start a dispute against the charge with my credit card company for merchandise paid for and not received. I can provide all of the emails, but do not want my email or identifying information to be used.

Online Purchase

I purchased an item via the EmmaChloe-Calgary.com website (photo attached - never received, but charged on same date order was placed) on April 29th, 2026. The page looked legit - items offered were of good quality, and page was laid out professionally. I had no reason to believe that this was a scam. I'm generally very cautious when ordering any items online - I thought that this would never happen to me, as I'm very vigilant with online orders. This page seems to have been set up to mimic another well know boutique in the Quebec area. An address was available on their website, which is no longer viewable when you try to visit the site. It states that "this store is unavailable". When I tried to reach out to cancel my order on May 1st via messenger (since they had a sponsored page), I never received a response. I tried to reach out again to enquire as to status of my cancellation to the order, only to find out that the name on the message had changed (was now Emily-Toronto), and had now stated that "This page is unavailable on Messenger". Obviously something did not smell right! After further digging, I found out that the "Merchant" had now changed their name from EmmaChloe-Calgary to Emily-Toronto. This may be a recurring modus operandi. I also located many entries online regarding this so-called company - all referring to this as a scam and warning others. I am now disputing this purchase through my CC provider today, and am wanting to ensure that others may hopefully see this incident, and avoid any company with names of EmmaChloe-Calgary, Emily-Toronto boutiques, Quebec. They are a SCAM, and in my case, you will not get your product or any refund if you happen to get some form of knock off item from overseas! Consumer BEWARE - they are getting more and more sneaky. It is honestly getting harder to trust any online merchants. Maybe it's time to return to the physical store fronts/malls/shops/boutiques, etc.

Credit Repair/Debt Relief - Debt relief

I recently took care of a credit card debt, via Halsted Financial Services. They represented LVNV Funding LLC, to collect the debt. Halsted told me that once LVNV had evidence that my debt was settled, LVNV would take care of getting it off my credit record. After waiting a week, I attempted to contact LVNV, regarding my settlement and getting it off my record. I thought I was calling LVNV. It turns out that I called Credit Sage. The person on the line told me that I still owed money; but that if I paid $300 to start the process to investigate and dispute the debt with the credit bureaus and $99 per month until it is settled, they would handle it for me. The lady refused to send me any documents in writing and kept pressuring me to take the "one time offer" or lose it. I refused. The lady kept dodging questions and made it sound like she worked for LVNV. Today, I called the number (888-544-5823) and pressured the person who answered to tell me the name of the company. After attempting to dodge my questions, he finally told me that it was Credit Sage. Today, I found the real number for LVNV and they confirmed that the debt was settled and that they would be reporting to the credit bureaus to get it off my record, no cost.

Like other complaints here, I attempted to buy weight loss patches. Not only did their website claim to be American made (they were NOT, with international tracking) and claimed to back up their products with 100% satisfaction guaranteed. Their product was significantly smaller than the photos on their website and looked nothing like the product. When I contacted them, they gave me the run around for weeks, ignoring my emails for days, weeks even. I think they were hoping to wear me out so I would give up. I tried calling and no one would answer. I got a VM once and ironically they responded to my email. They continued giving me the run around. I contacted the Ohio attorney general. It’s a SCAM website. The owner is hidden. Nothing but negative reviews and not one legitimate happy customer, no one to claim their received the product and were happy with it. They insulted me by offering me a 30% refund as a “courtesy”, claiming they can’t refund a product that’s been opened or used, yet they have a 100% money back guarantee on their website, or at least they DID. Product was never opened or used. I filed a charge back on my bank card and I received a temporary credit. This is a SCAM. This website needs shut down.

Employment

I applied to a LinkedIn job posting for a "Marketing Specialist". I have years experience interviewing and holding jobs of this nature. To make al long story short, this was actually a pyramid scheme trying to get young people in the door with the lure of making a millions of dollars and good benefits without any prior experience. The interview was in a group setting, unprofessional, and hours long. No information was specified other than becoming a leader in their group. Routinely made comments about the appearances of applicants, gave backhanded compliments to the women in the group, and refused to share compensation details. They had no phone number active on their website and no email. Their website was a generic view of the city the office with some AI content. The job turned out to be "selling" at events locally for "neobanks". Every person you sign up is a commision and you can get those under you to earn more. Sound familiar? They would tell you I don't have a "business mindset" but really what they mean is I am not desperate enough to look past an obvious scam in the hope of a few dollars.
