Online Purchase - Global Shipping Logistics / Pet transportation

I was purchasing a puppy the day I was supposed to go purchase the puppy the woman who I was purchasing her from stated that her daughter had died and she was sending the puppy to me with a shipping agency. The shipping agency then required $699 fully refundable for the rental of a kennel so that she could be safe while being shipped to me. They then also requested that I purchased $1500 worth of Apple gift cards to ensure the puppies safety while she was shipped to me at that point I fully realized it was a scam and I refused. The puppy never arrived.

Email from Jeannie Fisher at [email protected]: "Good day Hope this finds you well I am the private banker to the late Mr [Oliver], who passed away on the [27 May 2020] following several years of illness. I am currently employed at a private wealth bank in the USA, where Mr Oliver owns a personal account which contains approximately $89 Million at today's exchange rate. Since Mr Oliver did not have a will and has no Next of kin, therefore, we can claim these funds with my help. To have access to these funds, I'd need to legally designate you as the second signatory on this account. Because I have been a private banker for several years now, I can assure you these funds will eventually be possessed by the bank if we do not go ahead with this. My supervisors and in-house counsel lawyers are in on this with me. Such a procedure is standard and straightforward. And with the help of my supervisors, it should be concluded within 7-10 working days. Should you agree to this, I will need the following documentation emailed to me : * An official document bearing your full name * A document bearing your home address (an electricity bill, clothing account bill, etc.) * A letter of employment I will also need you to provide me with the following details: * Age * Marital status * Home telephone number/Cell phone number to ease communication Upon receipt of the documents and your personal details requested above, our in-house counsel will begin processing the necessary paperwork for the release of the funds. After the conclusion of this transaction, the funds will be paid into a bank account bearing your name only. You are, however, entitled to 40% of the funds, and my colleagues and I get 60%. Please note that we're all in this for the financial benefit, and we will not appreciate any form of deceitfulness on your part once the funds are paid into your account. I know you have concerns, but again, I need to assure you that you won't be exposed to any type of risks. I've been involved in several similar undertakings, and they've all been successful. Looking forward to hearing from you. Kind regards, Jeannie Fisher Inheritance Grand"

I ordered “Judy Blue” pants from a Facebook seller. They gave shipping information after purchase cleared and order was placed. I received a shipment tracking link. 33 days later, it gave me a delivered status with a future date and time (I even looked into verifying it wasn’t giving me incorrect time zone time and it was impossible to do). I attempted to contact the seller. Their phone is not a valid number. They claim they do not have a number valid in US. And when I went to locate my order in their website, I got an error page saying “order not found”. Ther website had no jeans listed and was more business class attire. Now looking in my replacement order and they list jeans again and the website layout is different. They use a 3rd party tracking service ( track718.com).

Counterfeit Product - Cove balm

I saw an ad on You Tube for Cove balm, and ordered it. What I received looked like the product, but no where on the package was listed the name Cove Balm. Instead it was called ‘Meidian’. The ingredients on the product package were not as advertised and were ingredients that are not considered clean. Additionally the color was off, too dark. I emailed Cove Balm about these issues and found my order was not from them. When I went to the web page from my order it said page not found- it was a fake page. I emailed the address from my invoice, but am not hopeful I will receive help, or a refund. In sorting all this out, I noticed that there are SEVERAL companies selling this product that all look the same, under different names in addition to Cove Balm. Please research the product and company carefully before purchasing because there are many fakes being advertised as Cove Balm and they are not Cove Balm. Order from the legitimate Cove balm website. How can this happen? huge scam! I will not ever try any of these serums again, probably are not necessary anyway!

Employment - Job Training Scam

I enrolled in a training and job placement program that was advertised as a pathway to gaining data analytics skills and securing employment opportunities. Initially, the program appeared legitimate. The instructor provided structured lessons, hands-on projects, and guidance that helped me build technical skills. Because of this, I developed a level of trust in the individual running the program. After several months, the instructor introduced a “job placement” process, claiming to have direct connections with hiring companies and recruiters. Multiple job opportunities were mentioned, and I was encouraged to prepare for interviews that were supposedly upcoming. However, despite these claims, I never received any actual interview calls or verifiable communication from employers. As part of this process, the instructor instructed me to participate in what was described as a “temporary payroll setup.” I was told that a deposit was required, which would be used to simulate recent employment activity for verification purposes and would later be refunded. The explanation was presented as a standard or necessary step to secure job opportunities, which was misleading. The payment process itself raised concerns in hindsight. I was encouraged to send the funds through Zelle/cashapp/job training payroll link methods. Simply across different platforms, allegedly to avoid high processing fees. At the time, I relied on the trust built during the training period and followed these instructions. After sending the payment, the promised refund dates repeatedly passed without any action. Each time I followed up, I was given new excuses or reassurances that the refund would be processed soon. Communication became inconsistent, and eventually, I was removed from the program’s communication channels, cutting off access to the instructor and other participants. Throughout this experience, several red flags became clear: • Promises of guaranteed or expedited job placement without verifiable employer contact • Requests for upfront payments tied to employment or payroll processing • Use of peer-to-peer payment methods instead of secure or traceable billing systems • Delayed refunds with shifting explanations and no clear accountability • Sudden loss of communication after raising concerns Although I did gain legitimate technical skills during the training portion, the job placement component was deceptive and resulted in financial loss. The situation was mentally and emotionally distressing, especially after months of trust-building. This experience highlights the importance of verifying job placement claims, avoiding any program that requires payment for employment-related processes, and being cautious of requests involving simulated payroll or falsified work history.

Once you buy the cat they give them to a pet courier service and tell you to wait for more information. The one they gave me was United MaACRO pets transport service. The courier service then told me to sign a pet ownership document(this is when I started to get suspicious). They then say to standby for information regarding my cats travel itinerary. After about 15 minutes they sent me an urgent email with an itinerary and a message saying that I needed to buy a very expensive carrying case for the cat. They gave me 3 options, 1300$ for the most safe, 1000$ for optimal, and 850$ for the bare minimum.

She indicated she was searching for grants so I had to sign and initial forms on her I-pad. I also had to provide her with my SS number so she could file for the grants. After she left I received an email regarding the agreement. I called her back while she was driving home because it looked like I had signed an agreement to have the bathroom work done by west shore homes. Apparently, while she was supposedly searching for grants she was actually applying for loans with several different loan companies. Then via a text she sent me two documents one was for Pending Consumer Financing and a Consumer Application for loans through several different loan companies. Now I have to submit a Cancelation form via US mail because there is no other way to contact them. I did notify West Shore Homes via their main number (888-697-4033) regarding the cancelation. But I still have to following the Cancelation process. The good news is I did not lose anything, but I want others to know to be on the lookout. I am not even sure there is a contest. Thank You,
