They send you a check for getting an equipment package for a data entry position and then they ask you to do a wire transfer or Zelle to their “approved vendor”. They asked for my account and routing number for the check. I assume the check is fake and will bounce eventually so they’re betting on you paying their vendor which will take your actual money.

Web site advertised 100% cotton blouses. Beautiful pictures and a specific description of 100% cotton. They sent a 100% polyester blouse that looks nothing like the one advertised. I requested a return label. They offered a 15% refund and said they substitute fabric they think,is appropriate. After many emails, I was worn down to accept 50%. Instead, they gave a 40% discount. The web site plays up their Nashville location, but the blouse was shipped directly from China. I do not usually order from unknown vendors, but sadly was taken in by their unscrupulous practices.
