I bought a children's learning item as a one time purchase and then discovered I was being charged a monthly fee for a service that I was not receiving

Lady name Meryl called ne saying she got my resume on indeed and was wondering was i still lookong for work

A “Christopher miller” claimed to be a senior broker calling to buy our timeshare. He claimed Hilton vacations grand was attempting to buy out Villa group and wanted us to send a wire transfer for a “SE permit” in order to sell our timeshare rights. He claimed to get us a good amount of money and asked all the right questions. They are very convincing and are preying on people who are anxious to get out of their timeshares. Beware!

Saw ad on TikTok for Comfrt. When I clicked, it looked like a legit website. After purchase, received a strange email from [email protected]. The item never arrived. Scam.

I sent a photo of my passport and phone number and email and also name of my account debit card with my banks name

I keep getting calls about a personal loan I applied for however, I have never applied for a loan. I get more than 5 calls every single day. Whenever I block the number they’re calling from, I get calls from a new number.

Well, on Instagram I found a really cute site called Emma and Jack of Boston. They said they were going out of business and prices were reduced. When I first purchased the products, my credit union flagged them as a scam. They looked into it and found out that they were “legit”. However, upon receiving the merchandise which was two sweaters and a coat they were very cheaply made similar to something you would find on Temu or worse. Definitely three items were not worth $161. When I tried to return the products, the customer service department required me to take a picture of all three items at this point they told me I could return through DHL, which would cost me almost $40. However, their phone number is not a legitimate phone number and when I’m trying to return these items, DHL will not accept the shipment because they don’t have a legitimate phone number.. So I’m stuck with the worst quality clothing that I have ever seen worse than Temu or Shane a lot worse and a lot more money

This is a multi level scam. I ordered from this site and then received an order confirmation however some of the verbiage made me suspicious. In the middle of the night after ordering a company named ALTAQUIP attempted to authorize my account for an additional $100 and then a $0 auth so they can add any amount they want later. My bank caught it and blocked the transaction. BEWARE, they say they are from the heart of I believe Phoenix, but IP addresses don't lie, and they are not that smart. OH YEAH, and they forgot to delete something that is a dead giveaway. ? 2025?10?28??? ????

This is the message left on my voicemail

I was told to provide personal information about a job opportunity

The same company calls repeatedly every single day from different states and different numbers claiming they "only need a few more details and information to finish a loan for $63,000.00 for 60 months with no fees." This is constant harassment and there has to be a way to stop them! I block the call after they call and leave a message, but then the same unknown company call from a different number from a different state!

I received an email saying “ Dear ***** ********** Please be reminded that your paperwork is ready, and we welcome you to finish the employment process. Please visit your Dashboard to submit Employment Agreement and W-9 Form. Your sincerely, HR Manager” when I went to that link it was a dashboard sent up for a job, at the bottom of the page it says to finish filling out a w-9 and an agreement to work for them. They have my name and my personal home address.

Organization claims to be passport renewal agency and when completing forms it seems you are doing online passport renewal. They need SSN, passport info, payment info and provide a "service" which is free through government website.

It’s fake everything. Fake employment website.

In June 2025, I ordered a device called "Heater Reader", which is supposed to control a pool heater pump via wifi. As requested I paid in advance, the credit card payment did not work so I paid by e-transfer. I never received the device (many different reasons were given, the response to emails was very slow) so in September I cancelled my order and I am still waiting on a response to receive a refund. When I looked up "Heater Reader" on facebook, I saw that there are several previous clients describing exactly my scenario, i.e. never receiving the device and not getting their money back. One particular individual said that he was able to identify the owners of the business and obtain their names, address and telephone number. The owner's names are Don Freer and Tanya Leshuk. Her cell phone is 705 259 3751. Also, she works at Summertime pool service 905 471 7946. Address 176 Bullock Drive #1, Markham, ON L3P 7M9

The lamps are of a very poor quality. A child could paint better than these lamps. The pictures on the webpage appear to be stained glass lamps and the prices are commensurate with stained glass lamps. I have contacted them numerous times requesting a return address and they are not sending that information. The website says they have an easy return policy. I sent them an email on the day that I received the lamps, stating that I would be returning them.

Voice Activation company calling for my business information. These scammers call constantly!

About a week ago I responded to an ad for some Free Steaks from Omaha Steaks, retail value over $300. All I needed was to pay for shipping. I couldn’t resist and authorized shipping cost of $15.26. A couple of days later I noticed a pending charge on the same card that I had used to pay for shipping in the amount of $76.86 for which I knew nothing and certainly hadn’t authorized. Even my bank sent me an email to see if I had authorized it. Since I didn’t, they blocked the card, and I had to get a new one. The next day the $76.86 charge had been posted, and I called the number on the transaction and was able to cancel future monthly charges, but they said they couldn’t refund this charge. I still don’t know what I paid for, probably because I didn’t read the fine print, but who does? I’ll admit he was very nice and explained everything, but I was confused because he over explained. I think that’s part of the strategy. I don’t know if y’all consider this fraud, but I do, and I would appreciate getting a better resolution, namely a refund of $76.86.

Claiming I had a relative that died and left me $11,550,300.00. Wanted me to contact them and his law firm would draw up all the necessary paperwork’s. Asking permission to proceed 10% to charity and then a 50-50 split. I have attached the actual letter below.

Sold a booklet for one time for $25, booklet was small and cheap and not what was shown in the advertisement. Then the next month a charge for 29.99 out of same bank account, unauthorized, because I did not sign up for any subscription or recurring charge, and received no products or materials in the mail.

Ordered two ?? Work Halo - Triple Monitor Extender on 9/21/2025, and was told that my order was shipped. Then I received an text stating that my order was delivered and that was a lie. I saw this add on Facebook

I applied on Ziprecruiter and Indeed. Skypoint Insurance Group was lists on both. I applied on a Friday and was responded to later that night by email. I set up an interview for the morning. This was a remote position for Administrative Assistant. The interview was done over Teams chat. It went very normal for the interview. They responded later that day that they wanted to start the onboarding process and were going to issue me a check for a sign on bonus and to start materials because part of my job would be to speak with the vendors to arrange materals. This would be a verison of a test. At 9pm they asked me on Teams to go to the store to get software to expedite the shipping of my materials. I humored them to see what they wanted because I was immediately unsure about doing that. They wouldnt tell me what I was getting until I got there. When I did arrive, they wanted an Apple Card. I assumed credit card. I was told I needed a $200 gift card. I told them I needed the night to think it over. The next morning I agreed, but only after they told me I did not have to give them the info. I would be speaking to the vendors myself. Later that day they asked for the card info. I told them not until the check they gave me clears. They assured me that it would Monday morning(it was Sunday night by now). They check then had a fraud hold on it until Friday by the bank. I was assured the bank would push it through by Friday. This morning(Wednesday) I wake up and find my bank telling me that the check is being reversed. I call the bank and tell them what is going on and they helped me cancel the check. This company has a website and a location that they have on Google Maps that is for another insurance group. It is not them.

Our company, ******* **** ***** ********* ***, was contacted by an individual identifying himself as Murray Edwards from Diamond Equipment Services using the email [email protected] . He requested a quote for several Caterpillar parts and provided legitimate-looking part numbers. After we sent him an estimate, he immediately responded requesting that the order be shipped via UPS Next Day Air Saver (Afternoon Delivery) to the following address: Name: Wisdom Kelvin Address: 64 East 98th St, Store B Brooklyn, NY 11212 He stated that he would provide his credit card details once he received the total, which raised a red flag. Upon further investigation, we discovered multiple BBB reports and scam alerts associated with this same name and address, describing nearly identical tactics—using legitimate business names, requesting high-value parts, and having them shipped to this Brooklyn address. Thankfully, we verified the information before processing any payment or shipment. This appears to be a purchase and shipping scam designed to obtain expensive materials fraudulently using stolen or invalid credit cards. We are reporting this to warn other businesses in the equipment, parts, and material supply industries to verify all new customers, shipping addresses, and payment methods before fulfilling orders, especially when the request involves next-day shipping and new or unfamiliar contacts.

When I went to look at a link in an email, a screen popped up that said I had a virus. I was to call Microsoft at 1 866-988-0128, so I called the number. After she got enough information to get into my computer she removed the warning screen. They told me my Microsoft windows defender was out dated and Microsoft tech support would call me to remove it. I was to receive refund on outdated windows defender. A different person called me. 1 325-320-6145 He wanted my bank name and my checking account number. I gave him bank name, but not account numbers. Then he want credit card number. I gave them my credit card numbers. He wanted me to go to my bank to get my information and he would call back. At this point I should have put my computer in airplane mode. I found out later while I was on the phone they tried to buy a $500.00 dollar gift card from Walmart with my credit card. Walmart declined the sale. They also try Amazon. I called credit card and reported scam. Went to bank to check with them. He tried to call back, I didn't answer. Bank requested I talk to Police. I did. Date of scam Wednesday 10-22-2025.

Saw an ad on social media, YouTube and Instagram, about the store called "Sundance" closing and all their clothing and shoes were on sale at incredible low prices. When going on the website, I was able to put things in the cart and buy them with my debit card. I got an e-mail from an "lmw-aws" that said they received my order, and then a second e-mail from that same site the next day that said my order was on its way. It had a tracking number that directed me to a site called "Track718" that would update where the package was. After a month of checking this tracking site, it eventually said it delivered to my address, but no courier service listed as to who had delivered my package. I eventually looked up the company "Evourie" and evourie.com and read that it was a scam company set up to trick people into buying liquidated products, but never sending the orders.

I got an email about a $234.99. I called 818-330-3507 to report that I did not authorize the automatic draft. They then connected me to an assumed BBB representative who connected me to the website for cancellation. I went through the prompts as instructed. the page that wanted me to input the amount I was told there would be 2 transactions, the first being in the amount of $200.00. after it was inputted, the amount had changed to $2000.00. I got am email alert from BBB for a non-active warrant for the illegal deposit of $2000.00. I had 6 hrs to correct. I was instructed to go to CVS Pharmacy and either An Apple or Target card. 5 $300.00 cards totaling $1500.00. I gave them the first card access code. I then realized it may be a scam. I had already spent the money on the cards. I hung up on him ad called my bank to verify if there was a deposit of $2000.00 and they said there wasn't. I logged into my account to see if it was there, but it had disappeared. They kept calling but I declined the call every time. I do not $1500.00 to spare as my account has less than $300.00 now.

Purchased three shirts online from an ad on social media. The shirts were supposedly delivered and the company provided tracking information. Everything that the company provided showed that it wasn't delivered to my address. The company admitted that their delivery company did not deliver it to my address but refused to refund the payment until I withdrew my Paypal claim. Why should I trust them after they have done nothing but provide false and misleading information to charge me for products that they failed to deliver? Never purchase anything from them.

A guy called into my ****** Staffing office where I am the manager claiming he was with M2M Autoparts, a partner of our local Jalopy Jungle junk yards. He wanted to contract our service to staff 10 positions for the Caldwell location - 4 accounting staff and 6 sales support staff. He had a very thick middle eastern accent and kept purporting that money was no issue. Over several more phone calls and email exchanges I gather the necessary details to open their account with us. He signed 2 contracts Direct Placements at the highest rate of 30% and his pay rate he was offering was way above normal. I had to revise the first agreement to try and match the exact business name because it wasn't pulling up as M2M Autoparts so I made it under Jalopy Jungle. I could not find the link between the two companies' D&B and he kept pressuring me to hurry and send him resumes. He said my competitor, ******* Staffing, already sent him 2 resumes. Something just didn't feel right so I decided to have my Oops manager call him and I called the Jalopy Jungle. I spoke to the person who manages both the Boise and Caldwell junkyards and they did not know who "Mike Barnes" was, the company M2M Autoparts, and they are not hiring and if they were they wouldn't use a staffing agency. My Ops manager spoke to "Mike" and said it also sounded fishy because he asked to speak to someone else and the guy gave my Ops manager some number out of Wyoming to call, which he left a voicemail on. When I called the guy back to let him know I was unable to open an account for him, he hung up on me. Also, the website looks like a lot of AI fluff. I suspect the plan was to try and "hire" my candidates thru my trusted agency and then steal their direct deposit information.

I received what seemed to be a legitimate email from PayPal and called the number in it. The person asked for my email address and sent a verification code to my phone. When I realized that giving them the code allowed them to change my password, I hung up

This breeder Terry Becker sold me a puppy for 1,200. The puppy at 4 months old was diagnosed with a congenital heart disease that required surgery to save her life. I told Terry about this and she told me puppy came with no guarantees and I needed to get a second opinion. She later told me to bring her back, but I would not get back the money I paid for her or for the vet bills. I was able to get the 6,000 together for surgery and my puppy died in surgery. Please do not buy a puppy from this breeder I have been through so much emotional and financial stress. I was heartbroken the puppy Isabelle was only 8 months old. I told the breeder she died in surgery and she did not respond. I have attached the ads she currently has on Alaska’s list with puppies for sale.

I was emailed from this business for a potential job position. When I tried to contact them there was no one to count on and it was all virtual. I gave them my social security number and have not received any new info regarding the job position

Since January 2025, I have been charged multiple times for an Uber One subscription that I never signed up for or used. I have not received any benefits or services from these charges - no discounts, perks, or membership use of any kind. When I noticed the recurring payments, I contacted my bank (Chase), and they refunded me and removed my card from Uber One's subscription. However, Chase later reversed all of those refunds, which forced me to pay the money back. Despite that, Uber continued to charge me another monthly fee afterward. I contacted Uber support several times, but they have not provided a clear resolution or confirmed the cancellation of my subscription. I am requesting a full refund of all unauthorized charges since January 2025 and written confirmation that my account and card are permanently removed from any Uber One subscription or recurring billing.

They call me and a recorded message says they are from Ridgegate Financial. I hit 2 to talk to a person. The person says they are from Reliant Solutions Group in San Diego, CA. I did not give them any info. They call me multiple times per day (1 to 5 or so) and it is always from a different number. I block the number every time they call but they keep calling from different numbers.

I bought products believing they were from the Jo-ann store, which closed down, since the website is the same. I received an email confirming the purchase, then an email with a tracking code, I tracked it and it said it was delivered, but I never received it. I contacted them via email, but the email bounced back saying it doesn't exist. A BLATANT SCAM.

The scammer used [email protected] email and sent me an email, saying I bought an iPhone 17 Pro Max 512 GB, Billing cycle starts: Oct 27, 2025 Total cycles: Until cancellation Remaining cycles: of Until cancellation Amount paid each time: ¥1499.00 JPY Outstanding balance: ¥1499.00 JPY Customer service URL: http://apple.com.usa?A?transaction?of?????????.?????USD?was?detected.?If?this?wasn’t?you,?please?call?(??????)???????-?????????to?stop?the?payment. I have never placed an oder of an iPhone 17 through Apple Store. And the phone number is not assocated with Paypal. Please be aware of this type of scam. Surprisingly, the [email protected] email is legit. Wondering how they used this email to send people scam emails.

I got an email about a scholarship direct fund of $7000 for college

I applied for a loan online. Which I might of accidentally gave them my information. Mr. Watson seems very threatening on the phone. So he transferred me to a supervisor named Debbie Carter.. She is very polite.. But she told me that they put money into my bank account and said he would fix my credit score. So now he is saying that I have to go to a Walmart and pay the full amount of my loan back to them and they would put the amount back into my account…

Saw an advertisement for Evelyn’s Light Animal Shelter on Facebook. They claimed they were in danger of losing their shelter and were selling handcrafted stained glass lamps to help fund their business. I ordered a lamp and when it arrived was not what they showed in their video. It is 4 inches tall and a plastic piece of junk mass produced in China. You can buy them off Temu for six dollars.

I receivd a text saying I won a million dollars in the Facebook lottery. His name is Javier Olivan. I have to call with a code number to collect the money.

I found a low income rental on Facebook. I filled out an application and sent $150 through my Chime card to a lawyer, Dylan Davies for the application fee. He is asking for another $200 for the deposit.

Targeted by a fake loan officer names James Cooper who said he is from "Transform Credit". Sent him $200 via chime for insurance fees. Phone number was 908-633-3048 and email address was [email protected].
