Claimed a pair of glasses that anyone with any prescription could use. They did not work. Then tried to debit my account as a recurring payment saying I signed up to carry their membership. They did try to refund me after I told them I was going to give a bad review. Had to cancel my credit card, because when I tried to stop the payment they just continued to try until it went through.

The seller from alibaba and dodex wave logistics are in on these scams together, I ordered 10 rebar saws and he "accidentally" shipped 50. Then the shipper dodex wave emailed me asking for $7000 in Vat and insurance fees, which i thought was legit because it is a heavy shipment, i told the seller to resend the shipment because i ordered 10 units not 50 thats why the Vat fees was so high, when he resent it the fees went down to $3000 so then i paid the fees or else they couldnt process the order, then when the order arrived at canadian customs they charged me another $3000 just to clear canadian customs which makes 0 sense, they told me that this is a fees from canadian customs, when i asked for proof that canadian customs is asking for this money they wouldnt show me anything, no email proof no invoice or anything. They just wanted me to send them $3000, they didnt even let me send the money to canadian customs directly. When I contacted canadian customs about the package and provided them with all the info they needed, they told me there is no such order at canadian customs and that this is all a fraud, when I contacted Dodex wave logistics about this they went silent, no response no reply or anything. So I lost $4000 from the product I ordered plus another $3000 in fake Vat and insurance fees, so next time anyone orders from Alibaba make sure to do your payment through alibaba and ask for who the shipper is, if the shipper is DODEX WAVE SHIPPING immediately report the seller and ask for a refund because the seller is equally in on it as much as the shipper. Beware everybody and shop safe.

We approached them about a litter of puppies available. they texted and emailed information about the litter. they insisted on western union or paypal for payment and gave information on getting the puppy shipped. When asked to talk on the phone or do a video call to see the puppies they insisted that they "were old school and don't know this video thing". It all seemed legit except for the very low price and there insistence on only using email and text to communicate. I did a reverse image search on one of the 11 week old puppies that was available i found the image on a pinterest board from two years ago and it was used on several other sites.

I have been receiving phone calls DAILY from different phone numbers and they all leave the same message, "Hi, this is Blake Carter (other names used have been Haley Aldrich and Brianne Schumann). Just wanted to reach out real quick about your personal loan inquiry. I reviewed your file earlier today through one of our lending partners. It looks like you were looking for a personal loan, and we had sent you a pre-approval in the mail. The guidelines are more lenient this month, so we may be able to get a better rate in term for you. I just need to verify a few details. And then I can go rate term and monthly payment with you. If we go with $25,000 loan at 5.99%, your payment would be around $485 per month. Very comfortable payment. Especially since the funds are not tied to any collateral and can be used for anything you need. Call me back at 877-372-0925 and I'll walk you through it." They KEEP calling every single day. I block every number that comes but they keep coming. Numbers have been (862) 212-5397, (920) 942-6670, (430) 837-4015, (520) 702-0564, (518) 401-3642, (540) 218-0842, (206) 581-2770, etc.

On 12/27/2025, I ordered a snow joe ION pro 18" cordless, rechargeable snow blower. On 1/1/2026 I got an email that the product was dispatched. Each time the company told me the package was delivered to my house it wasn't. I emailed them back and they said that they sent out another package. They sent out 5 packages as they said that we're coming from China. I received NONE. I asked for a refund and they told me sorry we sent out another package. Till today I haven't received anything. I'm frustrated. This is ridiculous. How can I get my refund? I went on the website and now the store doesn't exist anymore!

I signed up for Fireflies.ai using the quick “Sign in with Google” button. It was fast and convenient — exactly what they want you to do.
Within seconds they had me enrolled in their paid services (or auto-converted a “trial”). There was no clear “Yes, I want to be billed” step. It just happened.
I never used the service even once. No meetings recorded, no transcripts, nothing. When I realized it wasn’t for me, I immediately tried to cancel.
The cancellation process is deliberately confusing and nearly impossible to complete properly. Even after I fully deleted my entire Fireflies account, they kept charging my card.
Deleting the account does not stop the billing. They continue to take money even though the account no longer exists

Suspect approached me through LinkedIn claiming he is an AI research director working for Google Deepmind. I did Google search and found his name was listed as one of the director with Google which made me believe his profile is legit. We communicated for about three months through WhatsApp and things seem normal and he sounded quite professional in his field. From time to time he encouraged me to invest in crypto for more secondary income. I wasn’t feeling pressured for anything at all then one day he introduced me to this crypto trading platform (https://hypedx.bz). I open an account with them with my email and it turned out a fraudulent website and I received an alert from Equifax this morning that my email is in the dark web and I should change my password immediately.
After the incident, I received numbers of post-scam calls from Canadian Anti-Fraud Centre claiming they are investing a fraud case. I asked for the case# so that I can contact Canadian Anti-Fraud Centre directly then they stopped contacting me.

I bought on line a sandals.After confirmation of my order. I had to send 2 emails for an update on the shipment. Finally I received the sandals : Poor quality, uncomfortable, it looks like a peace of Plastic or Faux Leather glued on peace of wood, impossible to walk with. Absolutely rubbish.
When I contacted Nixclio, for a return merchandise, they want me to pay $20.00 for shipping cost.
They suggest ”To save me time and money” either to keep the sandals or donate to someone in need.
I cannot believe how rude is the company, not willing to help a customer.
I DIDN’T THIS COMPANY WAS LOCATED IN CHINA. Otherwise i would never order anything.
Also, they have a invalid return address on the package.
This is a scam truly.

The perpetrators are trying to impersonate Embroker Insurance Service LLC, which is a licensed insurance broker/agency with it's headquarters located in San Francisco, CA. Fraudulent invoices are being sent to companies. Embroker was made aware of this activity and immediately reported it to authorities as further described.
The attached fraudulent invoice and W-9 seek to have recipients send money ($19,712.09) via ACH to a bank account, purportedly as a means to pay for insurance policies. Embroker has no relationship with the bank receiving funds, Pathward NA. The W-9 has been forged. All examples of the invoices received to date from companies contacting Embroker for assistance have been identical to this sample except for the Named Insured and Contact information showing different companies - the amount of premium to be paid, coverages, policy numbers, effective/expiration dates have all been identical.
Neither Embroker Insurance Services LLC or its parent company, Embroker, Inc., own or otherwise engage with embroker.net. We have reported this fraudulent activity to the Federal Trade Commission, the Federal Bureau of Investigation and the California Department of Insurance. A report to the FDIC is also in process. For purposes of this BBB report, the "targeted person" demographics have not been provided as we have several companies who have contacted us on this matter and their demographics are not consistent. For the "targeted person" information, we have entered in Embroker's HQ city, state and zip code.

I ordered two items from a merchant that appeared to be AIgroupfood. However, when I received notification from PayPal the merchant was shown as Phan Thi Tranh Tam. The item was shown as charmcharmshop, rather than the items I ordered. I have received no further contact from the merchant, and have not received the items. When I searched AI groupfoods, the item listed by the merchant was not found, and the item (American Crew Liquid Wax) did not appear to be of a type AIgroufoods normally markets. The item is still listed when using the Google search engine; this is the listing: https://aigroupfood.net/wm-hot/product/american-crew-liquid-wax-5-1-oz-2-pack/?gad_source=1&gad_campaignid=22715564835&gbraid=0AAAAA9qELbNoaly0-QByZ6QDgz7OrvvPK&gclid=CjwKCAjwtIfPBhAzEiwAv9RTJoHgXkxqK1EOGb1nbSca8PeL4jsMFQsGc3hXIHnbGBqrqR4cyoyJ4hoCGFYQAvD_BwE

Phishing - Amazon Fraud Department
The Scammer told me his name was Shane. He had me to download a website on my computer. The website was www.setme.net. The phone number Shane called me from was 202-373-4496. Shane told me he was calling from the Amazon Fraud Department. He had me to log on to my bank website on my laptop and said he will be giving me a refund. When I logged on to my bank website it was showing a refund of $20,000 and he said it was a huge mistake that had to be corrected and if someone found out about the mistake that my account will be frozen for 60 days and it will be investigated and attorneys will need to get involved. So the other part of the scam was the gift cards being purchased at CVS Pharmacy in Fort Mill South Carolina. Once I found out it was a scam I immediately reported it. Which was probably around 20 to 30 minutes. I gave all the information that I had by calling Nordstrorm at 1-800-499-0104 I explained everything on how the scam had happend. I spoke with Hidi and she told me that I will be getting the refund. I asked her does this happen often and she told me yes and that she is sorry that it happen to me and she took notes on everything and that they are working on how to stop these things from happening. She told me that I will be getting a email that will have the information. The next day I got an email from Calvin at Nordstrom Care. He didn't give me a last name. The email stated that Nordstrom is not in a position to offer a replacement or refund. So I got back on the phone and called Nordstrom at 1-800499-0104 and spoke to a person by the name of Rolonda and explained to her and what I was told about getting the refund and she told me sorry but there is nothing that can be done.

I watched a video by Jillian Michaels that said this product contained specific ingredients that would help with weight loss better than the GLP-1 shots or pills. When you receive the product, unfortunately you get a product that only has Apple Cider Vinegar in the gummies. None of the other described ingredients. I wasted at least 40 mins. watching the video that seemed authentic and had found a formula that was better for you than the GLP-1 options, that it reactivated your metabolism by taking one gummy a day. I was thinking that $300+ wasn't bad for 6 months of weight loss. I was so wrong. When I tried to get a refund, they continued to give me the run around and tried to get me to upgrade, continually remarking that I wanted to quit, making it sound like I was giving up, not that their product was fraudulent. Even though they promised that if I wasn't satisfied for any reason that they would refund my money and allow me to keep the product, I have to pay to ship back the unused product and wait approximately 2 or more months for the refund. I highly recommend that you stay vigilant and don't fall prey to this scam. If something seems too good to be true, it is.
