Online Purchase - Online Cannabis Purchase Scam

Fraudulent Sale of Counterfeit Cannabis Products I am submitting this complaint regarding a fraudulent transaction involving the purchase of counterfeit cannabis products from an online vendor. On my first and only order, I purchased two bottles of “Baby Jeeters” pre-rolls for a total of $120. The products delivered were of extremely poor quality and clearly inauthentic: The pre-rolls barely resembled cannabis, with no recognizable taste or quality. The QR codes on both bottles did not scan, confirming they were not legitimate. The packaging and appearance differed noticeably from authentic Baby Jeeter products. The delivery driver arrived with large plastic bags full of random products, from which he retrieved my order. After raising these concerns via text, I received a call from a man associated with the vendor. Rather than addressing the issue, he repeatedly claimed their business was “number one” and that many customers purchase without issue. He further insisted he would inform the Baby Jeeter company in California, which I strongly doubt given the fraudulent nature of the items. The result is that I spent $120 on counterfeit, unsafe products that must be discarded. I no longer have trust in the additional Sherbinski vape purchased during the same transaction, further compounding the loss. This business is engaging in deceptive and fraudulent practices, selling counterfeit cannabis products and exploiting consumers through cash-on-delivery transactions. I strongly urge consumer protection agencies and relevant authorities to investigate this operation to prevent further harm. I am requesting: Investigation into this vendor’s business practices. Public warning to protect other consumers from financial loss or health risks. Enforcement action against the fraudulent sale of counterfeit cannabis products. This was a deceptive and harmful transaction. I respectfully request that the matter be formally reviewed and that steps be taken to hold this vendor accountable.

Retail Business - Online Book Publishing Scam - Barnes and Noble Impostor

The company website represents themselves as Barnes and Noble Publishing offering services to publish a book. There were multiple packages to choose from ranging from $299-$1800 after talking with the 'sales person' and deciding on a package he sent a Stripe Payment link for the amount. He said the link would expire within 24 hours. He also said that I would receive a contract or invoice after payment - which did not happen. He then passed me to another person who was the 'Project Manager'. The project manager reviewed the information in the package over the phone but no written services where ever sent or agreed to. After that, the project manager sent me an email and text message. We had several conversations and I sent over my work. He created a book cover using a free site - Heyzine. This was basically a copy of the information I sent him as I had included a mock-up I had made on my shutterfly account. A day or so later, he sent the first preview of the book - again a recreation of the mock-up I had made except all the words and pictures were mixed up. I told him this and he said he would make revisions and then we needed to talk about copy write and marketing as a next step - which both would come with an additional charge. He also mentioned creating profiles on Amazon and Barns & Noble. After our conversation I looked up copy writes and found that this was something i should do on my own through the US Copy write website. Then I went to Barns & Noble to see how to create an account and thats when I realized the company I was working with was not affiliated with Barns & Noble at all and that Barns & Noble was actually warning people about companies like this one - They have a pop-up banner on their website. After talking with my bank I discovered that they had tried to charge the card 3xs for the package amount but the bank only allowed the one charge through. I dont know what this company would have actually done for me if I had continued with them, but the misrepresentation of who they were and the tripple charge left me not wanting to proceed. All that this company did for me was recreate a mock-up of what I originally sent them.

Online Purchase - Online Retailer Scam

I purchased a top and a coverup. The pictures were of beautiful cotton or linen pieces with beautiful embroidery. What I received are 2 cheap short sleeved polyester tops that are not cotton, not linen, not embroidered. When I contacted them, this was their response: We sincerely apologize again that the two items you received do not meet your expectations. Please note that all items are based on the actual product, as our supplier is unable to provide embroidered/printed fabric craftsmanship. Therefore, there may be some differences between the actual items and the images shown on our website. This is deceptive and misleading. They told me they would refund $30 and I could send them back to China at my expense. I did not ask them to send an alternate nor would I ever wear what they sent. They then offered $45 which is still not okay.

A letter with immediate response required, no business name listed. Says information is time sensitive. The outside of the letter refers to Rocket Mortgage. However in the fine print on the inside of the letter, there is a statement that whatever company this is has no affiliation with Rocket Mortgage. There is a check, that is not a check that appears to be a waiver of a fee for some type of service. My assumption is the scam has something to do with mortgages and possibly trying sell fake mortgage insurance. The inside of the letter has Final Notice and states they have the right to revoke the allocated waiver after 7 days of receiving the letter. Call immediately…final attempt. No website listed.

I ordered a mask package from Skaind, and despite being all over Facebook and imitated by new brands this company is likely a complete sham. Their tracking device is completely fake because it doesn’t allow you to know or contact the company shipping the item. Skaind emailed me and told me that my item was being shipped by the US postal service but the post office said they did not have the package, some company called WANB did and that there was no telephone or address for it because all of the info was in Chinese characters. Skaind emailed me and said they were on it, just keep waiting for the package that WANB claimed they had a ‘failed delivery attempt’ with, though my cameras and mailbox trackers prove otherwise. 10-11 days later they supposedly started shipping another item, all the way from China, but still refused to give me a time of delivery, telephone number, or physical address for the shipping company (which supposedly has a warehouse in my city, completely unable to be located on all apps and maps). Again, the app said my package was delivered and NO ONE showed. I have no doubt that this is a scam company with no actual product, hoping people will blame the loss on a shipping issue.

The number to call was 1-855-484-1577. After seeing that one BBB complaint listed PTCL as a sponsor, I searched my card and found in micro-print ©PTCL2025. I looked up PTCL and discovered it was Pakistan's #1 telecommunications company. The postcard givaway claims that if your scratch-off numbers match, that you have won one of the prizes listed and should call the number given within 48 hours. The offer code on my card was JC0827, but others state theirs to be different numbers. One even had different phone numbers. I did not call because of what the other scam victims reported, but decided to also report as the others were from differents states and I want people from my state, Texas, to know our citizens are also being targeted.

Online Purchase

I ordered a pair of jean from Laura New York, which I saw an ad on Instagram from. The jeans looked cute so I wanted to give it a shot. I was redirected to a professional looking website, which was made to look like it was a family-owed, mother-daughter business. There was a sale so I decided to buy a pair of these jeans since I did really like them. I noticed immediately when the item shipped that it was coming from China. When I received the pants, I noticed they were made of a cheap nylon material rather than the photo advertised to me, and they fit horribly, probably worth about $15 maximum and I paid almost $50. I emailed the company immediately, requesting a return since there is a 30-day return policy. They emailed back saying that they would give me 10% back of my purchase and I could keep the pants (which would only be about $5 back to me), or I could return them and be charged a $10 fee and have to pay for the shipping back to Asia, where they would inspect the pants and decide how much to refund me. This is clearly a scam business selling extremely cheap clothing while advertising trendy clothing that looks of higher quality.
