On May 19, 2026, a person was walking on foot, putting the attached in several doors. This person had on a tshirt and shorts, no credentials. I have a signed one year lease with Beaufort Rentals for a lot fee. I signed this back in February. I received this on my door, no company logo, no company address, no date of when lot fee is due, etc. I pay my current lot fee to Ameris Bank. This paper work does not have any banking information. I feel this is a scam as I already have a signed lease with Beaufort Rentals for and that signed lease has to be upheld.

Tech Support - AOL Impostor

Dear Sir/Madam, I would like to report a scam involving fake AOL customer support services. A scammer used the phone number 866-347-1273 and falsely claimed to provide assistance related to “{Full ~ Explain} Is AOL shutting down old email accounts?” The individual pretended to represent AOL support and attempted to mislead users by providing false information about AOL email account shutdowns. During the call, the scammer tried to gain personal information and requested payment for unnecessary services. This activity appears to be fraudulent and harmful to AOL users seeking genuine support. I request that this number and related scam activity be investigated and appropriate action be taken to prevent further fraud. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Online Purchase - Sleep Study Scam

This is a classic bait and switch, they told me that I had to pay $65 for an at home sleep study. I paid the $65 I got the sleep study done the results sent to my doctor. 2 months later I get a bill saying that I owe them $110 and if I don't pay them in the next two or three days that I was going to get sent to collections. I called in to try and get this cleared up and they were ridiculously rude and nobody spoke clear English. I asked to speak to a supervisor got transferred to somebody asked to speak to his boss because I could barely understand him and he was also incredibly rude and he transferred me back to the original agent. I then ask to speak with billing and was sent to a woman who was again incredibly disrespectful to me. I went on Google reviews to look and I am not the only person who is getting told one price and charged another and threatened with collections that seems to be a common theme with them. They tell you one price and then they bill you another price and wait till it's close to past due and then threaten you with collections , I feel like I am being extorted.

Phishing - HDLLC

I received the following voicemail today, 5/19/2026 at 18:20 EDT. This is an actual copy of the VM that I received, wherein caller offered Financial Assistance of up to $65K: “Hello, this is Karen Sawyer from customer service at HDLLC 901-698-3336. Now the reason for my call is that it's open enrollment for the 2027 financial hardship program, so you're eligible to qualify for those. Now, um, some of these programs actually offer up to $65,000 in release with no interest on the payments. Payments are super affordable. They fit right in your budget. Now the funds can be used to also eliminate financial obligations, such as credit cards, personal loans, medical bills, repossessions, timeshares, collection accounts, et cetera. Okay, so please call me so I can educate you about all the programs you qualify 909-83336 again 901-698-3336. Now another benefit to these programs is they all help you fix your credit in the all of an A plus rating with a Better Business Bureau. So please call me today because I do need to status your file before tomorrow, okay? 901-698-3336 make you think we made this call on error. Just call the cardio back person or 2 and that'll take you right off. Thanks so much and you have a wonderful day” I did not answer the call, nor did I return the call. I researched the company she said she was calling from, HDLLC, and discovered that they do not exist, have no Website, nor could I find a street address. I found there are many complaints about HDLLC, stating they represent Non-existent Government Assistance Programs and a number of other financial scams including Financial Assistance & other scams, generally for the opportunity to get personal identifying information such as Social Security Numbers, Birthdates, Banking Information like Account & Credit Card Numbers. Fortunately I did not take the call or call her back until I researched HDLLC, and found out about the Scams they offer. Thank you. I completely support the BBB & am grateful for their services. Although I have a small income & live with the increasingly higher pricing here in the USA, I promise to send in a small donation to the BBB by US Mail over the next 10 days. Thanks again!

Phishing - Personal Loan Underwriter

I have never applied for or considered a loan from this company or any other company in the past 7 years. This company continues to call and leave voicemails, which i do not respond/reply to. The following is the phone message left for me: “actually fits within a range where we can structure this better personal loan today, both in terms of rate and overall repayment. Press one now or call me at 877-578-1953. It should be a straightforward process, and in many cases like yours, we can have funds available within just a few days once everything is finalized. I've built strong relationships with both Prime and Subprime lenders over the years, and that allows me to work through approvals a bit differently and often secure more flexible terms when needed. We also don't need any collateral for this, so the funds can be used for anything you have planned. Rates are starting to move up slightly, but we can still lock in a lower 5.75% option right now. Press one now or reach me at 877-578-1953. Ellen Hopkins here based on what I'm seeing, this personal loan should be a straightforward process. And in many cases like yours, we can have funds available within just a few days. For example, if you're looking at borrowing around $25,000 at approximately 5.75%, your payment could be about $458 per month. We can also adjust the structure to better fit your budget. When you have a moment, please call me back at 888-310-4836. Again, 888-310-4836 and I'll go ahead and walk you through everything.” 877-578-1953

Online Purchase

On May 14, 2026, I ordered a dress from a website featured on Facebook, Angela & Chloe in the amount of $59.95, charged to my now-canceled credit card. They advertised Free Shipping and 30 day satisfaction guarantee. I grew suspicious when I found the same merchandise, same copy, similar photos of “stores” in many cities, with the same font and web layout with different store names. When I checked my online credit card bill that afternoon, I saw a pending charge to a company in the Netherlands ( SP AUDREY COVE APELDOORN NLD) for $59.95. I did not do business with this company. I immediately canceled the purchase and requested a stop-payment with my charge, citing fraud. This company is not from Charleston, nor is it “Angela and Chloe”. I contacted the company at the email address they provided, [email protected] and demanded that they stop shipment, as I was rescinding my purchase. It was well-within the “cooling off” period, which they stated was for reconsideration of purchases. From their website: “Terms of Service General Terms and Conditions Article 1 – Definitions In these terms and conditions, the following definitions apply Cooling-off period: the period during which the consumer may exercise their right of withdrawal” I contacted them multiple times with this request. I received notice from “Angela and Chloe” that my order would be shipped. In a couple days, I found that it was being shipped from China! I contacted the shipper, Yun Express, citing the tracking number and requested that they not ship, as I would refuse this fraudulent merchandise. It was not the company with which I consented to do business. I received this reply via email: ...On 05/18/2026 4:01 AM EDT Angela Chloe Support wrote: Dear XXXX, Thank you for reaching out. We have informed our delivery team regarding your cancellation request and will revert with an update as soon as possible.

I purchased two dresses from Sophie and Grace in Savannah because the advertisement was appealing and stated that they would refund the purchase price if the product didn't meet expectations. After paying with a credit card, I waited 3 weeks for the clothing to arrive. I sent emails, since there were no phone numbers to contact the seller, and was assured that my dresses were in transit. That was the first time I realized they were coming from a foreign country. When they arrived, they did not fit, were made from inferior material, and the stitching was poorly sewn. I started trying to return them, but there were no instructions, only an email to contact, and there was no return label. After several attempts to return the garments, I was offered a 10% refund, which I rejected. Then a 20% refund was offered, which I rejected. I was finally sent a mailing address in China, but I would have to pay the shipping costs. That cost was more than the dresses' original cost. I contacted my credit card company and filed a dispute.

Online Purchase - Katana US

I saw a Facebook post from Katana US on Facebook on some katanas so on Dec. 7th & Dec. 9th, 2025 I ordered to katanas. Still haven’t received them. There is no contact phone number & the email you get automated responses. Told it was ready to ship than emails saying it’s still being forged, etc. Always a different story. They refuse to refund my money.
