Fake Check/Money Order

The scammer saw my listing on Kijiji Brandon, Mb and offered to purchase my 2024 excavator for $143,000, which is listed at $145,000. I read online about a scammer with the same cell number trying to buy a bucket truck on Kijiji Edmonton with a fake certified cheque and the same cell number also offered to purchase a utility trailer on Kijiji Guelph with a certified cheque as well. I blocked the cell number and reported it. Thankfully, I told the scammer that I would only use a wire transfer and I never heard of him after.

This company reports to be in Boston, MA, USA but emails signify another country. I ordered a tractor part from them 4/16/26 and have still not received the item that was supposed to be delivered vie express delivery which was 3-5 business days. I tried to cancel the order, and the company was supposed to intercept the package. The stated 24/7 customer service takes days to a week for response. They continuously offer a 10% refund and to ship the item again. Although I have explained that I do not need the item and want a full refund. Seems the company does not understand what I am requesting. I believe it is fraudulent being emails showing different languages, the time frames to receive response and lack of understanding.

Online Purchase

This site advertises a personality test for a $1.99 "7-day full access" charge. After paying the $1.99, the customer is enrolled in a recurring monthly subscription of $27.88 without clear or knowing consent. The recurring terms are buried and not meaningfully disclosed at the point of the $1.99 purchase, so customers believe they are paying only $1.99. The charge appears on billing statements under a different name (PERSONPAY.NET) rather than the site's name, making it hard to identify and dispute. After requesting cancellation in writing, the customer continued to be charged the monthly fee, and the cancellation was not honored. Refund requests for the recurring charges have gone unaddressed. The company directs all account management and cancellation to email only, with no self-service cancellation option. The pattern, a low-cost "trial" that silently converts into a high recurring charge under a disguised billing descriptor with cancellation friction, is consistent with a deceptive subscription-trap scheme.

Employment - Gartner research

Gartner offered employment on getting secret evaluations on different stores. They sent me a letter with instructions along with a check for $1950 with somebody else’s company on the check. They asked me to deposit this check into my banking account and then send them a copy of the receipt showing I have deposited these funds and then I was to go and buy 3 $500 Apple gift cards. Take photos of them and send them back to the same number. I cannot find the company Gartner research either online or under the Better Business Bureau nor can I find the wamufat international corporation in Hawthorne, California, which is the name on the check. It sounds like other people have received the same information and were given checks from different companies. The point of contact is a text only with a phone number of 415-936-5904 and an email of GeOFFholthaus @gartnerresearch.store.

Online Purchase

I purchased a Cord Rope Tightening and Cinching Tool from their online advertisement on Instagram for $29.95. I received multiple tracking emails over a two week period and then nothing. Yesterday, i received an email saying the package was delivered 3 days ago. I was home all that day, but no package was delivered. I contacted them and they sent me a tracking number for the USPS and told me to check to see if it was delivered to one of my neighbors or lost somewherein my yard, but when I contacted the Post Office, they said the tracking number was not theirs. When I shared the local shipping information for that Post Office with them, they said the time stamps did not make sense because it was received and out for delivery in less than 10 minutes, which never happens. My neighbors all said they did not receive it either. When I contacted Apparenth Support with this information, they stopped responding to my emails. This company is a scam.

I purchased a replica sword from this site. It was purchased on Dec 3, 2025. After months of automated emails from the company telling me that they were having issues with their logistics and not to worry my sword was on the way, I decided enough was enough and asked for a refund. They said my refund would be processed and take 5-7 business days. Then 2 weeks go by and ask for the status and they tell me it’s locked in their financial queue and was being processed. Now over a month since I initiated the refund they’re now telling me they can’t refund me because the item I bought was processed to still be shipped. I just want everyone to know what this so called company is doing to people and not to make the same mistake I did. I hope action can be taken for not only me, but others I’m sure this has happened to.

Beware this is a scam and you must then catch it before your account is charged or you will be charged and sent a product every month without even signing up for this service.
