Rental - Property Rental Scam

Hello… I was on realtor.com and apartments.com looking for an apartment for my daughters and I in Redding Pennsylvania and I came across this house that I had seen for sale previously and it was for rent. So I went on realtor.com and I went through the channels of waiting for a reply. I got a reply and I sent in a pre-screener through an app that I had used previously to try to rent a home and they came back and said that I needed to put additional information so I did that and did another application and then they were asking me what kind of cash app I would use to give them $75 for an application fee. Once I did this, I kind of figured something was wrong and I went to go to the property, which was very close to where I live and there were people living in the home. So now I am worried that they have My information that you would use when you’re filling out an application for a home. I’m very nervous and worried about my information.

Hilaine Bras, an online-only business, seems to prioritize profit over customer satisfaction. Their bras are of poor quality, lacking in fit and support. The return policy is deceptive. While the website claims refunds are available, customers must email their refund requests. Subsequently, they receive an email informing them that they can exchange for a different size, but the exchange is never processed. Later, they offer a 20% refund, approximately $10, as a consolation. This is their strategy to make money.

This website represents itself as a "small family-run business from Seaside Florida" (quote from an email to me) and in fac it is not a US-based company, but rather a company located in China, with no locations in the US.

I was able to resolve this with my credit card company, but I feel their website is false advertising and should be reported.

Employment - Employment - Equipment Purchasing Scam

During my job search, I received an email from Elgia Therapeutics stating that my application progressed to the next round ,with applying to multiple jobs at a time, I was unsure if this may have been a company I completed a Quick Apply to. I reached out and clicked the link to the TEAMS chat that was provided. I received a chat from "Roxanne Schroeder" who completed my "interview". All questions via chat, no video call/virtual interview. I continued on with hesitation. I did NOT provide my home address, telephone, SSN, or other identifiers. They only have my name and email address. They did ask my bank name but not any account information. There was a request for a r professional reference. The company representative informed that they would not provide equipment but would send me money to purchase my own. After the interview questions, I was asked to reach out the next day at 10:00 AM. This again raised concerns because the next day was a Saturday AND a holiday (4th of July). I was informed that I received the job and an offer "letter" was sent to me. I requested a telephone number to speak with someone and was never provided with one. I then blocked the contact and shared information here.

Home Improvement - Appliance Repair Scam

I contacted this company to repair my washing machine, which was leaking. The technician, Tony, inspected the machine and advised that a replacement part needed to be ordered. He removed the top part of my washing machine, explaining that he needed it to ensure he ordered the correct size and fit. Before leaving, I paid a $245 deposit by debit card. After that, I spent several days trying to get updates, repeatedly having to follow up because my calls and messages were not being returned. When Toni finally returned, instead of installing a new replacement part as promised, he brought back my original part, applied what appeared to be caulking or adhesive to it, and attempted to reinstall the same damaged part. Despite not providing the new part that I had been told was necessary, he still expected me to pay an additional $245. I refused to pay because the agreed-upon repair was not being completed, no new part had been provided, and the workmanship was unacceptable. The technician then left without repairing my washing machine and refused to refund my $245 deposit. I believe I was misled into paying a deposit for a repair that was never completed as promised.

There is a scammer under the name of Tiffany Pomeranians for Adoption, Shalom Bailey Claire, on Facebook claiming to be a valid breeder of Pomeranian puppies on Facebook. No puppy was received. Pictures are stolen from other sites and they try to sell the "so called" available puppy. They demanded $250 to reserve the puppy, and another $200 to purchase the microchip to be placed ahead of time before agreeing to meet with you to pick up the puppy. Only Apple Gift Cards accepted and to be sent via Facebook Messenger for the funds to be redeemed. Scammer backed out of meeting to pick up the dog stating their mother passed away overnight. Due to the "so called" family emergency, they were going to send the puppy via Swift Logistics, https://swiftlogistictransports.com a tracking number was received, after verifying the delivery address they want $700 or more for a air conditioned crate to transport the puppy. Only CashApp, Apple Pay or wire transfer accepted. When I went to my bank, the information from "so called" Swift Logistics to wire the funds was to some Beneficiary in Brazil, not an actual Swift Logistics company. Went to my bank as I had some suspicions about mobile app or transferring any funds online and glad I did. Wire transfer was cancelled, otherwise, they were asking for $700.00 minimum rental fee to ship a puppy in an air conditioned crate, in which no puppy was ever even available.

Fake Invoice/Supplier Bill - Fake Home Warranty Scam

I received a mailer marked as an "important notice" instructing me to call about a home warranty, shortly after purchasing a home. The notice was designed to look official and urgent, implying that coverage needed to be "registered" or maintained. When I called the number, a representative sold me a Home Assure home warranty plan with a total premium of $5,475 — a $295 down payment plus recurring monthly payments of $287.78 for 18 months. I provided a credit card for the down payment and checking account information for the recurring payments before realizing the sale was based on misleading representations. The same day, I called back to cancel. I was told I could not cancel until I received a physical package. That package did not arrive for several weeks — until early July — which appeared to be a tactic to run out the 30-day cancellation window stated in their own contract. When the package finally arrived, I called again to cancel. The representatives ignored my request, repeatedly pressed me to explain why I wanted to cancel, and ultimately refused to cancel the plan. The company's own written terms state that a plan can be cancelled at any time, with a full refund if cancelled within 30 days of purchase and no service has been performed. Both of my cancellation attempts fell within that window, yet the company would not honor its own cancellation policy. Recurring payments were routed through a separate finance company that bills monthly. I also attempted to use the arbitration opt-out email printed in the contract, and the email bounced back as undeliverable. Anyone receiving a mailer like this should know that a home warranty is never a legally required condition of a mortgage, despite language suggesting otherwise. These solicitations rely on urgency, official-looking notices, and pressure. If you've already signed up, dispute any card charges, revoke bank/ACH authorization, and submit written cancellation with proof of mailing — and be aware the company may delay delivery of materials to make cancellation harder.

The biggest red flag: "This program is designed to... replace the traditional interview process." No legitimate company skips interviews entirely and replaces them with paid "training" before you've even had a conversation with a real person. That sentence alone is close to a confession. Second major flag: asking for a photo/scan of your driver's license, passport, or health card — before any interview, before any offer letter, before you've even spoken to anyone live. This is exactly the identity-theft mechanism these scams rely on. A government ID scan combined with your name, address, and phone number is enough to open credit lines, file fraudulent tax returns, or impersonate you elsewhere. Other confirming details: "OJT form" being requested with no prior explanation of what it is or where it came from Payment via "ACH transfer, direct deposit, or wire transfer" set up before any real vetting — this is often how they'll later request your bank details "to process payment," which can instead be used to drain an account or as a vehicle for moneymule activity Suspiciously flexible/immediate start dates (literally next week) with zero verification Still 100% text-based, no phone or video call has occurred despite her listing a phone number She send me a job scam and asked for my bank information.

I ordered several of the jelly bras, and I had even sent an email requesting how to measure correctly, which they replied to me however, when I was paying through my credit card, it all looked legitimate until all of a sudden it switched everything to American dollars, and then said it was coming out of Ireland. The bras that came were just pieces of poor quality fabric and didn’t resemble the actual product at all not to mention they were all XL size when they probably should’ve been two XL. The funny thing is they were telling you to measure as to 36B, 40C, and yet when these pieces of flimsy junk arrived, they were just in XL no actual band size and cup size. Luckily my credit card provider did give me my money back, but I can’t believe that these stupid websites are allowed to put up ad after ad after ad.

Debt Collections - Debt Collections Scam

I received a voicemail from someone identifying themselves as “Jordan Williams, Compliance Officer with State Location Services,” claiming that several formal complaints were being filed against me in Northampton County, PA. The caller instructed me to contact a “litigation office” at 855-656-4658 with claim number 148112-9036 before the end of the business day or an “active order” would be issued for my location. They also falsely claimed the voicemail served as legal notification. A few days later, my brother received a nearly identical voicemail regarding me, and my mother also received a similar call on a different day. The calls came from different phone numbers but used the same caller name, callback number, claim number, and nearly identical script. The messages used vague legal terminology, contained numerous grammatical errors, attempted to create urgency, and appeared designed to intimidate recipients into calling back. I am reporting this so others are aware of this apparent scam or deceptive debt collection tactic.

Debt Collections - Debt Collections Scam

I received a text multiple times that insisted my "health policy" has a balance that is outstanding and requires attention or payment. I called 870-298-5513, a different number from the one that sent the text (919-551-6857), and the person wouldn't divulge any information but did request name, DOB, and address as verification. Then demanded payment or my BCBS account would be "inactivated" and the claims would be sent to collections. The story was that this was an insurance payment that had been subsequently reviewed and declined by an underwriter. The debt was reportedly 6-8 months past due. They could not give me any specific details of the service provided or the location of the service. When pressed, they said based on the billing code it could be one of several options including ER, virtual medicine, and urgent care. No other details shared due to supposed HIPAA constraints. Eventually, they purported to work directly for the insurance company and not the service provider.
