I purchased tickets for travel, and after 2 days the company contacted me to confirm my booking. They advised me that I was not even allowed to take any carry on bag that weighs more than 5 lbs! I was not properly advised of this very important fact. They told me I would have to upgrade my reservation to allow for carry on! And that if I didn’t, I would be charged anyway as the ticket was non refundable. No one travels with at least a carryon bag! This company is a total scam! Please alert others to not use this company!

Thanks for your swift response. I will formally introduce myself to you. My name is Mr. Andrew Wild, and I am the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of HSBC Continental Europe. I am sorry to have encroached into your privacy in this manner; however, without delay, I will immediately proceed with the details of the proposal as stated in my introductory email to you. I respectfully request that you keep the contents of this mail confidential and also respect the integrity of the information that you are coming across as a result of this mail. I contacted you privately, and as such, no one is aware of this communication, which is the reason why I had us communicate strictly via our private email. I am the personal accountant of one (the late Mr. Fabian Champagne), a foreign contractor with Royal Dutch who has an investment account with my bank. Unfortunately, my client died along with his nuclear family in France while on sabbatical in the summer of 2011. May their souls rest in peace. He died without leaving Will. Several efforts were made to find his extended family through his embassy, but without success. I received a notice last week to provide the next of kin of my late client, being his personal accountant, or the account risk being transferred to the government (escheat) in 14 days’ time. I am contacting you to assist me in repatriating the funds left behind by my late client. This claim will be executed without breaching any laws, and success is guaranteed if we cooperate on it. The bank will release the account to you because of my recommendation of you as the next of kin. I am a religious man, and I cannot lie; I expect the same from you. The amount involved is €9,400,000.00 EUR (nine million four hundred thousand euros); I propose we share the proceeds 50/50. I think this is fair. I will give you all the necessary information about this deal when I get your response. I am contacting you to assist me because you have the same surname/last name as my late client. I anticipate your cooperation. Treat this proposal with utmost confidentiality and urgency for 100% success. My position as the CEO and member of the Executive Board of HSBC Bank guarantees the successful execution of this transaction. If you find yourself able to work with me, I urge you to indicate that effect. Once again, do observe utmost confidentiality, and be rest assured that this transaction will be profitable for both of us. For more information about me, please see https://www.frankfurt-ebc.com/portfolio-item/andrew-wild/ Please note that a quick response from you will be highly appreciated. Thanks in advance for considering this proposal. I await your urgent response to enable me to furnish you with more information about this opportunity. Sincerely, Mr. Andrew Wild. Chief Executive Officer and Member of the Board of Directors | HSBC Continental Europe at HSBC.

What appeared to be a legitimate company on FaceBook with extensive product offerings; yet 9 days after order confirmation - nothing: no tracking info or updates of any sort. Charged excessive amount which would have exceeded state taxes if legit. [image showing partial order to avoid inclusion of personal info]

On Oct. 19th I ordered the iPad case. Within 5 minutes I emailed them per protocol, that I needed to cancel this order. On the 21st I left a voice message and sent a second email saying I had not heard anything. Later that day this is the response they sent me: “Dear customer, We are so sorry to hear that you would like to cancel your order. However, your package has already been shipped and is currently in transit, so we are unable to intercept it at this point. Shipping Method:UniUni Track Number:UUS5AL0458095981656 Logistics inquiry website:https://www.uniuni.com Would you be willing to wait a few more days for it to arrive? Once you receive the item, if you are satisfied with it, we would be happy to offer you a 10% refund as a gesture of goodwill. If you still prefer to return the item after receiving it, please feel free to contact us—we will gladly provide you with our return address and further instructions. We look forward to your reply. Thank you for your understanding, and we hope you have a wonderful day.” I responded: I will return it. Per your instructions … “If you still prefer to return the item after receiving it, please feel free to contact us—we will gladly provide you with our return address and further instructions.” … I need the return address and further instructions.” On Oct. 22 they emailed back with the following: “Dear customer, If you insist for returning it, pls check the return policy on casebus.com: https://www.casebus.com/Pages/ShippingandReturns/ Please package and mail the package to the following address after you receive the order: Room 505, Building M3, Maqueling Industrial Zone, Kejizhong 2nd Road, Nanshan District, Shenzhen, Guangdong, 518000,China When mailing, please attach the corresponding order number for verification. and we will carry out the refund process after confirmation.” On Oct. 28th I sent “I am wondering how shipping is paid since there was no return label in the package? Thank you” Later that day: Dear customer, Please note that the return shipping costs will be the responsibility of the customer.We do not provide return labels. Sincerely, Rachel Customer Support “ They were all from Rachel. This company is a Fraud. I am wishing that the federal government would step in and do something. When I checked the package it came from NY. The items are stored at a wares in NY. That’s where they’re shipped from. China is sending them to NY These statements are all my opinion from research. I looked them up on the web and sure enough everyone is saying they’re a scam. The only reason I ordered from them was because I bought a case for my phone and had not one problem. And yes, what they sent me, in my opinion, was junk. The case was weird, like a hard piece of cardboard, with the black covering on it. In doesn’t stay upright all the time in the ridges. It slips out and the iPad falls. Stay far away from Casebus.com. I REALLY HOPE SOMEONE OUT THERE TAKES THIS SERIOUSLY AND DOES SOMETHING. Oh, and I also wanted to say, my Junk e-mail box gets inundated with exactly what it is, junk. I will clear it then maybe like 2 or 3 hours later there like another 250 junk e-mails.

I was sent a link to open and thought it was from one of my realtors as I am a broker that signs docs all day long, I clicked on a fake link and it said I signed something.

The company Flow Carrier LLC on surface has the thin appearance of a legitimate offer but upon further inspection the company is not registered anywhere, there is no EIN - Fed or State registration. they give you a break down of the position and how you get paid. Packages are delivered to your house for inspection. You unpack the package to make sure the item is not defective or damaged, repackage the items with the intructions to repack and forward the items, they even give you a fake portal of sorts to print the shipping lables to forward the items. When I enquired about the areas of concern the HR person Jay Martinez said that Kevin Williams would answer all of those questions. Kevin was supposed to be my manager. Also there was no LinkedIn profile for this company - Kevin Williams or Jay Martinez. I think the Job scam entailed obtaining sensitive data like birth days and ssn's. These people if indeed fake need to be stopped from praying on people who are already down and looking for a job.

I saw an ad on Facebook for lashes. It brought me to a website where I ordered the lashes I thought were in the advertisement. When I reveived them They were not the same. They had a 14 day return policy they did not honor or respond to, then I received another charge for a subscription I did not order from them. I went back to the original video I saw and the model stated they stole her video of a different lash brand.

Seller has a website that promotes custom made clothing, tumblers, etc but also sells NFL themed football glass whiskey bottles. You’re told it will take 7-12 days for them to process and ship the product in your confirmation email. Just to never hear a peep from them again. Even if you’re in the 30 day window they will ignore you and not provide you your money back which contradicts their refund policy they have listed on their website. I never received the product either.

I get multiple calls from ridgegate financial several times a week. Each time it is from a different number. I select to be removed from their call list and I also block the number but in the same day I will get the same exact call just from a different number.

I get at least 10 calls per day from “Ridgegate Financial.” Ive blocked all the numbers however it’s always a a new number they call from. The recorded call says that they’re calling about a personal loan offer that I applied for. I have not applied for a loan, nor do I want to. According to Ridgegate, this is a scam robo call.

I watched a very long video about this product neurosept. A CNN reporter was delivering the information as if he had found this new product and had used it on his patients. He was expressing his scientific opinion that this was a new and improved medication for Alzheimer's that used a special honey from a distant country. He delivered data that caught my eye. I recognized him immediately from CNN as a researcher and medical reporter. I've forgotten his name. Two days later, I began looking for info on Google about the product and saw info that helped me to determine it was a scam. I've received a package that appears to contain six bottles from the address I listed above. I have not opened the package and will contact my credit card company about the fraud.

I purchased what I thought were designer Longchamps handbags but received counterfeit bags. I opened a dispute with AMEX. When I emailed them, they offered a full refund and told me to keep the bags even though they offer postage paid returns within 30 days. They asked that I close the dispute before they could issue the refund. While the dispute has been closed for over a week, they have not issued the refund, claiming it is still showing as open on their end. This is untrue according to AMEX.

Placed an order. Received confirmation that the order was shipping within a day. Waited and then it said it was just sitting at a post office for days. Reached out and they said they would give me a free gift once my order arrived. I wrote back and said this shouldn't take this long it's been weeks. The place that the order is sitting at is in a small town where I live. They send me tracking. Tracking number: JFGJ171442165CN The next day I went to look and it said no such order number. 251001174246320

I received a mailed “FINAL NOTICE” letter claiming to be about “an important matter regarding the property at (insert home address).” It urged me to call 800-201-9452 within 7 days or risk losing an “allocated waiver.” A tear-off portion at the bottom resembled a check for $195 but read “THIS IS NOT A CHECK.” The fine print states “Not affiliated with your lender,” even though the wording and layout are designed to look like an official mortgage notice. Research shows no legitimate company associated with this number, and identical mailers (same signature and language) have been reported nationwide.

The product will state it works for people with anxiety/ptsd/pain and targets the Vagus Nerve. It comes with a gel. The item does not work as described. I contacted the company and it took several attemps for them to agree to let me return it. I then had to pay addtional cost for a shipping label, $8.00 for USP and $3.00 to ship it. Makes no sense. Addtionally, they sent confirmation they recieved the item and would refund me to my original payment method 5-7 buisness days. It has been over 11 days and no refund. They finally replied to me saying it's on my bank's end. Had to file a claim with my bank as there is no pending refund. I have a claim with fraud department at ****** dated back to the 3rd of October, just provided more documentation. The reviews are fake, they are paid reviews and they pay individuals to fake positive reviews. They won't post my real review as I want to protect other's from this experience and acutally use their money for real devices that help with pain and anxiety. This is a fake product. Please look into this. I have addtional documentation to back up my complaint. Thank you! - ******

I am seeking employment and a recruiter by the name of Shruti Bhadauria reached out to me about a medical assistant job at Humana. She refused to give me her company name and where she found my resume. The id for the call came up as Lancesoft, 571-678-0804 but the company name in the email was Staffing Industry Analysts. She refused to answer all my questions. She was extremely rude and unprofessional on the call. She asked for personal information that is not needed on an application. She had extreme scammer vibes. She wanted my full name including middle name, dob, and social security number. When I would deny this information, she became extremely rude and try to bully me to provide the information. I advised her that I am currently working and advised her when the best times to reach me are. Despite this information she would call me five times a day and sometimes back to back. She demanded if I did not answer the call I would not get the job. No one needs that pressure. I did some research and the companies seem legit but I could not shake the scammer vibes. I called both companies for more information but haven't received a call back yet. When I refused to give her my social security number twice, she hung up on me. Scams are so rampant right now and to be that unprofessional about something as sensitive as a social security number, it just doesn't seem like a proper business. Especially, when I shouldn't have to provide that information until hire and provide it to the direct employer. I've been burned by staffing agencies before but this is the worst. No wonder no one wants to work with staffing industries. I just could not shake the scammer vibes the whole time. I just want to report them to protect other people if this was a scam because sadly there are way to many scammers out there.

received postal mail and when read contents - assumed it was a scam. I am doing my civic responsibility to report this scam as hopefully no one falls for it. I have attached both the letter itself and the envelope it came in. I am assuming that there is a law about using the US postal system for scams and hope by forwarding this information to you - you can hopefully prevent anyone (especially members of my family) from falling victim to this scam. Attached is the information. Dear********. My name is Boloti Valo: I am a partner at Balot Tutti LLP Canda It may surprise you to receive this letter from me, since there has been no previous correspondence between us. There is an unclaimed "permanent life insurance policy" held by our deceased client. The transaction pertains to an unclaimed "Payable-on-Death" ("POD") savings monetary deposit in the sum of Eleven Million, Five Hundred & Fifty Thousand and Three Hundred United States Dollars ($11,500,300.00). The policy holder was one of our clients, Late Eng. Robert ********, who was a Real Estate Investor and precious stone dealer. He was a Covid-19 Victim, who died about 2 years ago. Since His death no one have come forward for the claim and all our efforts to locate his relatives have proved unsuccessful. The insurance company code stipulates that "insured permanent policies" not claimed must be turned over to the abandoned property division of the state after 10 years. Therefore, I ask for your consent to be in partnership with me for the claim of this policy benefit, in view of the fact that you share the same last name and nationality with the deceased. If you permit me to add your name to the policy, all proceeds will be processed on your behalf. I wish to point out that I want 10% of this money to be shared among charity organizations while the remaining 90% will be shared between us. This is 100% risk free: I do nave all necessary documentation to expedite the process in a highly professional and confidential manner. I will provide all the relevant documents to substantiate your clam as the beneficiary. This claim requires a high level of confidentiality, and it may take up to thirty (30) business days, from the date of receipt of your consent. Kindly provide a reachable contact number, for faster communication. Contact me via email: [email protected] or [email protected] for more details on how to proceed further. Your earliest response to this matter would be highly appreciated. Baloti Valo Attorney at Law

Hello I was contacted by 10kvoices earlier last month to be apart of a research study. I completed the research study somewhere around 10/2 or 10/3 and was told on 10/6 via email that it would take somewhere between 2 to 3 weeks to receive my incentive. The day of this message is now 11/3 and I still have not received my incentive of $75. I have sent multiple emails to 10k voices within the last few weeks requesting information about a projected date of which I would receive my incentive and I did not get any sort of response until literally this morning and I am firmly of the belief that I only got that email because I threatened to report this company to the BBB. The email that I received this morning stated that it's going to take more than 3 weeks to receive my incentive and I find it to be quite illogical given that if these people had a hard time issuing payments, I should have received notification of the fact on the 27th aka 21 days exactly after I told that my incentive was being processed to be sent out. I had to verify my information in order to do the research study in the first place, so this company literally has my ID on file and given how shiesty that they are being, i have no clue what they are doing with my information. I honestly just want my incentive and to never deal with this company again.

I get roughly 10 calls per day from RidgeGate Financial. I ask to be removed from their call list but they just call back on a different number.

I've been receiving 2-5 calls a day from the "Tax Review Unit". Often different pre-recorded calls. From different numbers and different states. I assumed this was a scam, and have not taken the bait. But I'm worried with how they are everywhere, people must be getting scammed. This has been going on for 4-5 months.

Deceptive mail using language like "FAILURE TO RESPOND" and "within 10 days", while naming various credit/retail companies and dollar amounts that make it look like an overdue credit card bill. Mailed under presorted standard postage US postage permit # 1935 from zip 95813 Alternate phone number for Spanish: (877)330-1077

Mike Taylor from Lending Club contact me via text message. I was looking for loans to help with move in costs. He already had my information and said I was eligible for $5000. Then he said he was going to deposit $5800. I said why would you do that? So they can have money in case I get injured and can’t pay the monthly loan amount. He wanted me to send it back them after they deposited it. I told him that this made no sense so I hung up on him. Later in the day I got some I got some reversals from Amazon and progressive. I called the bank and asked them about the reversals and they told me they were legitimate and there was no fraud. My wife transferred the money to our move account. Shortly after we did this transfer Mike sent a text saying we took the money out of the bank and he was calling the police and was going to sue me. I immediately changed my password and username and called in a police report for harassment. I also reported this incident to the FBI.

Same exact message as other complaint above.... from supposed "Loan Department" I get at least 10 calls per day from “Ridgegate Financial.” I have blocked a ridiculous number of phone numbers in my phone and they keep coming in under new different phone numbers. They continue to call. The story is that they’re calling about a personal loan offer that I applied for. I have not applied for a loan. THIS IS A SCAM - phishing voicemail/call obviously. According to Ridgegate Financial, this is a scam robo call and not coming from them. Will BBB please work with FTC and FBI to combat robo calling?????

While the initial expectation is full-time, I am open to discussing part-time flexibility depending on your availability and how well it suits the needs of the role.

I received the below response: “ Congratulations, you meet my requirements for this role. I am pleased to confirm your position, and all necessary paperwork will be completed upon my return.

I look forward to hearing from you soon.” There was no mention of an interview call or video meeting at the very least, nor was there an email with further information as stated. The automatic “congratulations” screamed too good to be true.

She claimed to be a retired real estate attorney looking for a virtual assistant for $40/hour to help her out as she now supposedly deals with small real estate sales and needed someone to handle emails and book travel arrangements for her. Once I provided the information described above, she replied saying "Congratulations I can confirm your position" and then said she would be out of the country for two weeks in Montreal, but we would do paperwork once she returned home to Naples, Florida. She said she would be in touch with me to have me do a few "tasks" such as book some flights before then, but that she had limited access to Wi-Fi. Immediately red flags went off, as I had only exchanged two emails and was offered a position with no interview and was told I'd be given these "tasks" before paperwork was complete. I emailed back asking if she could send me links to her LinkedIn or website and if there would be a formal interview, and have not heard anything back for days. I looked her up here and saw the same scam was attempted on someone else using this name and business name. I couldn't find her name in any official website like the Bar association nor could I find them with any associated business via the email they provided: "Norton Capital LLC".

On September 19, 2025 my personal Stubhub account was hacked by an unknown person from another country. I woke up to a google calendar invite to a 2 day concert in Azerbaijan at the Baku City Center. I live in Orlando, FL. this is a country in the middle east. ( I have never been to the middle east). I have reported with my Barclays credit card company and with Stubhub multiple times but neither companies are supporting my evidence or documents that I did not make this purchase: as it was my Stubhub account that was hacked and unfortunately I had my credit card on file on the website. My email address was hacked, my Stubhub was hacked, and my Barclays credit card had a theft amount of $4,827.22. That I still have not been able to reconcile with Barclays or Stubhub. I have put in a police report and am reporting to multiple consumer solutions companies as well as BBB.

Dropfit showed up as an online ad for weight loss. I ordered 3 bottles for a total of $177, relying on information on their website that, if not satisfied, I would get a full refund. After 5 or 6 weeks I had not lost any weight. I emailed Dropfit and requested a full refund, well within the 60-day guarantee. After 5 days I received a reply, stating that they needed a picture of the bottles unopened and opened, which I duly sent. 'Doug Johnson' replied that their policy only allowed for refunds on unopened bottles, and there would be a re-stocking fee of 15%, leaving me with a refund of approximately $50. I wrote back that that was unacceptable, quoting from their website that there would be a full refund. Several e3mail exchanges followed, the last of which stated that my case was being elevated to some committee that evaluated these things. This was 11 days ago and I haven't heard from them since. I told them I would report them to the BBB if they didn't give me a full refund. They have tried to deflect or obfuscate or simply ignored me throughout this entire process, all done politely, but nothing done to me satisfaction.

Got a text from a number stating my name and that they had received a request about a personal loan. The loan amount was almost spot on to my actual debt owed in total and when ignored they texted a second time about an hour later, and once a day for almost 3 straight days. I finally messaged back and told them they need to stop because I didnt ask them to get ahold of me nor did I submit a request for a personal loan. They backed out real quick with a text that said "Sorry about that, have a great day!" Making it seem like they knew what they were doing while they were not only pestering me everyday, but also the fact they had my info even though I never gave it to them

I purchased 3 bottles of BurnPeak. After 1 bottle use i could see it wasnt going to work. They offer a 60 day refund w/ no questions asked. When i contacted them, i didnt get a response to be able to send back.

THEY LEFT A VOICE MESSAGE CLAIMING TO BE GARNISH MY WAGES FROM A PAY DAY LOAN FROM BORROW CASE IN WHICH I'VE NEVER HEARD OF FROM 2018. THE HAD MY ADDRESS AND THE LAST FOUR OF MY SSN. THE ACTUALLY CALL CAME FROM A ERICA MILLER FROM 614-660-0255 OUT IF CANAL WINCHESTER, OHIO. I THEN GOOGLE AND FOUND OUT THAT ITS A SCAM/ THIS IS WHAT PULLED UP. Calls from an entity claiming to be the law firm of Morris and Jacobs are widely reported as part of a scam. Numerous reports to the Better Business Bureau (BBB) Scam Tracker and other consumer forums describe a debt collection phishing scam using this name. Details of the Scam The scam typically involves the following characteristics: Intense Pressure Tactics: Scammers call, often claiming to be from a state processing unit (like California, Colorado, or New Mexico), and threaten immediate legal action such as wage garnishment, property liens, or being served with a summons at your place of employment or home address. Generic or Suspicious Contact Information: The phone numbers used are often 800-style numbers (e.g., 855-549-2477, 855-717-7356) and their websites appear generic and were often recently created. Refusal to Provide Written Verification: When asked for a physical letter or debt validation notice, the callers often refuse, a strong indicator of a phantom debt collection scam which violates the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA). False Claims of Authority: They often impersonate process servers or government officials to create a sense of urgency and fear. Request for Immediate Payment Over the Phone: The end goal is to get the victim to pay immediately over the phone to "settle" the fake debt.

3-6 times a day, I get a voice mail regarding a fake loan. The interesting part is that the phone call comes from different numbers every day.

My business partner and I were scammed by an online company called Trademark Nest, which claimed to provide professional assistance with U.S. and international trademark registration. We initially found the company through a Google search in 2023 when we decided to trademark our brand name “Endless Summer.” A man named Dennis Morgan, identifying himself as a “Senior Paralegal Officer,” contacted us by phone and email. He explained that he would handle all aspects of our trademark filing with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) and later with the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO) for international protection. Over the course of nearly two years, we were repeatedly asked to pay additional “government fees” for services such as application filing, logo registration, maintenance renewals, and “global filing conflicts.” In total, we paid approximately $8,000, believing these were legitimate government-related costs. Payments were processed under unrelated merchant names such as PAYTMSOL GLOBAL SOFTSOL. The scam escalated when we received a professional-looking email from a fake law firm called Law Pathway (email: [email protected] ), claiming that another party was filing for “Endless Summer” internationally. The message urged us to act within five days to secure our rights abroad. When we forwarded this to Dennis, he insisted it was an urgent matter and requested an additional $3,750 to “file globally” and prevent us from losing our brand name. After months of follow-up and mounting concerns, we discovered through the USPTO Trademark Status & Document Retrieval (TSDR) system that only one real U.S. application had ever been filed — and it was still awaiting examination. The supposed “international filings” and “conflict notices” were entirely fabricated. We have reported the situation to the USPTO ([email protected] ), the Federal Trade Commission (FTC), and the FBI Internet Crime Complaint Center (IC3). The individuals and websites involved — including Trademark Nest, Law Pathway, and Dennis Morgan — appear to be part of a larger organized trademark registration scam designed to impersonate official legal entities, exploit small business owners, and collect fraudulent payments over an extended period of time. We are sharing this to warn other entrepreneurs: Always verify trademark agents directly with the USPTO before sending money or signing documents. No legitimate government office or law firm will ever email you unsolicited requests for urgent payments or “international filing deadlines.”

I either received an email or clicked on a Pinterest ad. Sorry, can't remember. The brand advertized was Mac Kenzie Child,. a well known, upscale home decoration brand having a VERY deeply discounted BARN SALE. The photos of the products exactly matched the real online images, however the prices were deeply discounted. It appeared that the brand does hold a BARN SALE with great prices. This so far seemed legit and a great bargain. A piece of furniture was shown and I was curious about the shipping charge. In order to get that you had to go through the entire sales process including CC number. After going back to the sale items (there were 100's) I went back to the check out and hoped to see the shipping added, but it said free shipping and because I had spent a certain amount I also received an additional AMAZING discount. I found another item and added it to the total. This was a 2 piece sofa reg. price almost $10,000. I'm sure there was plenty of mark up in that but now with all the discounts for spending more, the sofa was about $72.00!!!! Wow they must have really had overstock. I finished the transaction and to my amazement the total still had free shipping and and was around $72.00. I had referred back the Real Mac C site to verify the pictures and it all matched exactly. Boy, was this going to be my lucky day!! I waited to receive a transaction email and after about 5 hrs. nothing. That seemed strange. I checked Reddit for any scams similar and found nothing. I rechecked the Mac C site and they do have a huge Barn Sale in July. Lots of photos of that and running for years. But, with no acknowledgement by the end of the day i called my CC co. to attempt to cancel the order. The CC cr said nothing was ishowing yet and to ck bk on Monday. Now, Monday it shows on my account under NOCERAST ATLANTA USA. It is listed as a cosmetic company on the CC charge. I looked it up and found it as a scam biz often selling deeply discounted Carters brand baby clothes. Nothing about the Mac C brand but maybe they are expanding their successful enterprise. The old saying, Too good to be true, is not to be ignored! Be safe.
