Employment - Prosper consultants

From an online forum, “ They reel you in with roles like biz development trainee, account manager, client service consultant, telling you that you can work from the bottom and keep getting promoted from trainee to account manger, to executive manager. They will have you go door to door convincing infinity customers to switch to fiber optics. If you want details: First interview is a group zoom, with the hiring manager basically asking candidates questions about your background, leadership, and motivation. Then they give you a call to let you know you've moved on to the second round (i saw at least half of the candidates in the first round interview in person at their location in Houston). Second round, I was waiting an hour after my interview time for them to call me in, while they interviewed other candidates. They also completed their third interviews before getting to me. When I finally was called up, their account manager interviewed me about background and gave me a whole spiel about their origins how they came from dallas and wanna expand to all 50 states, and how they've had huge contracts with shark tank, texas rangers, and now fortune 500 companies. Biggg giveaway how they're naming their clients. I ask what does the day to day to look like? She said that will be revealed in the third interview. Like you WORK here what do you mean you don't know? She also made it clear that not everyone moves into the third round. but i saw everyone else in that waiting room called in for the third interview, and of course so was i. Third interview was by another account manager, he was quite unprofessional in my opinion compared to other companies. Very laid back and he began to describe the schedule and responsibilities. The team is in office from 10-1, then they leave office and go into the field from 1-7.….. to sell FIBER OPTICS!!! I then proceeded to ask a bunch of questions that threw him off, and he ended up saying that to become executive manager, it takes 9 months and you don't go into the field anymore. So EVERYONE has to start by doing the grunt work and work their way up. Immediately I told him the job description is very misleading. He asked how so and l responded that there was nothing in the JD that included door to door selling.“ I had experienced the same exact situation in the zoom “interview” with the company. The whole thing made me feel off about the job, I was told the same thing about moving onto a manager position in under a year, and how good the pay is. And how it’s like a family and how they deal with shark tank and Fortune 500 companies. The companies online address does not match with the address I was given by text for the “second interview” and the only reviews they have received are 5 star ones.

video ad on my Facebook Feed claiming to be HSN and it looks very legit. Lori Greiner from Shark Tank is on a video in the HSN studios promoting a new carryon back for travel. It is not a deep fake it really is Lori showing the product on the HSN set. I tapped the BUY button and paid for two bags and express shipping. the purchase steps all look legit. I received a confirmation email too but it was from some outfit called Bikobabybus, I never got the bags and emailed them at [email protected], got an AI-generated response they are looking into it... I looked them up on google and see they are being called a big scam company out of China that Ms. Greiner is aware of using her image and videos. These scammers are getting really good at fooling folks on legitimate sites using real promotional videos they apparently stole.

Online Purchase - Fake Travel Bag Website

I noticed an Instagram add for a travel bag I had previously seen on one of the shopping network shows. It was promoted by Barbara Corcoran from Shark Tank as her favorite travel bag. They must have used her add to get people to click on the spoofed ad and then change it to their landing page. I did not noticed it had changed to another URL. Everything looked in order. Come to find out I was duped for $58.98. Never got the product. No shipping company name provided and no proof of delivery. No email ever sent after initial confirmation sent. Then when I emailed back I was told the product was delivered weeks earlier. I never go it. I requested a refund and they said no that they would reship the product. Same thing - no email of shipping tracking. When I finally got a shipping tracking link it was a blank page. My advice is never ever by anything on Instragram or any other social media platform. I have wasted hours of my time trying to get a refund and emails back and forth trying to get a product that they have shipped twice now. Both times I have not received it. I have been home both days it supposedly was delivered. My home office is at the front door. It may be too late, but I am going to attempt to request a chargeback from my credit card company. Lesson learned!

Online Purchase - Fake CBD Gummy Scam

I received forwarded email from an acquaintance. The email said ***** used this product and it worked for him to cure his tinnitus. I opened the Harmony Glow CBD website attached to the email and selected the $ 39.99 offer for one bottle the CBD gummies. When the order arrived there was 6 bottles of gummies and 3 bottles of CBD oil. I thought they were giving me additional gummies and CBD oil as a promotional offer for $39.99. I used the products as the directions were given and hoped it would work for me too. I received my credit card statement and saw that Harmony Glow had charged me $239.99 for six bottles of gummies and $59.99 for 3 bottles of CBD oil. I called them at 1 833 806 2439 to dispute the order and told them the product was not working as advertised and I wanted to return it for the 100% satisfaction Guarantee. I was informed by Boch the representative who answered the call that the order could not be refunded in full and offered to refund me $ 150 and asked for my credit card number. Red flags went up in my mind and I refused his offer. Bock gave me an address to return the product to ( Harmony Glow CBD PO Box 90129 Lakeland, FL 33804. I asked why is the address to return the product in Lakeland FL and not in Albany New York as is written on the bottles. He told me that was the warehouse and I needed to write an authorization number 30f6d5dfbac1 on the outside of the box and on the inside too. I wrote a letter with the Authorization number included it it and explaind the mix up in my order and being overcharged. Boch gave me an order cancellation number and told me my refund would be processed in 3 to 5 days and I would e=receive an email to confirm my cancelation and refund. I never received the email. During the conversation I asked Boch where he was located and he told me he was in the Philippines. Lots of red flags were waving with his answer. A business address in Albany New York, a warehouse in Lakeland Florida and a call center in the Philippines. I began to realize I had been defrauded. I attempted to call the Albany NY phone number listed and was put on hold the the next available representative for hours every time I called. I have never received a refund. I contacted Capital One and reported the transaction as a fraud and they told me they would investigate the matter and I should have a refund in 3 months if they determine it was a fraud. Capital one received a copy of the erroneous order from Harmony Glow and determined it was a legitimate transaction. They refused to allow for a fraudulent charge claim since I did not have a receipt from Harmony Glow or an email that stated I returned the product. I googled the Harmony Glow Lakeland Florida address and found out that Shark Tank, Kelly Clarkson and Dr. Oz were all mentioned in the sale and healing quality of Harmony Glow. My google search lead me to this BBB scam tracker site. Harmony Glow CBD gummies and CBD oil is a scam.

Counterfeit Product - counterfeit product

I was reading an article about health or business or something, an ad caught my eye. Was about 2 sisters who had won shark tank for their weight loss gummies, KETO GUMMIES. This merchant was advertising a sale, basically BOGO, but the fine print was if you bought anything your information was entered in the system for a subscription for the gummies and you would be billed for a monthly refill. You have to specify that you want your information taken out of the system and you don't want any further products whatsoever. The first time, the merchant billed as "Lifeboost" and the second time "Moonwise." Via CashApp. Emailed the merchant right away because I realized I had been duped - merchant didn't respond until the next day telling me sorry too late we already shipped it. Filed dispute with CashApp, they denied the dispute. Did this 3 times. They denied. CashApp Support was incredibly USELESS. CashApp Support are terrible. I asked the merchant for their website and they refuse to give me one, claimed it was down for maintenance. Wouldn't give me anything. I believe they are not a business they are a scam. I told both the merchant and CashApp that I am deaf blind and I made a mistake and I live on disability and they stole my money and they still refuse to help me.

Online Purchase - UltraQuick Keto ACV Gummies used by Kelly Clarkson and endorsed by Shark Tank

I ordered online UltraQuick Keto+ACV gummies. I thought I was only ordering a one time delivery but found out the next month that it was subscription so it cost me more than what I signed up for. I emailed buyuqketo to find out how to return the 3 bottles and to cancel my subscription which they charged me for 2 months. They cancelled the 2nd subscription and provided the return address. I tracked it and found that the USPS could not deliver it because the building was vacant so it returned to me. I called their customer service and requested the address. It was the same address only I needed to add Sorty Returns to it which the email did not give me. I talked to 2 different people and they confirmed the return address even after I looked it up on Google Maps and the photo showed no entrance or signage for Sorty Returns. I sent it again and now it is coming back to me again because the tracking says vacant. I emailed them again and called but they keep insisting that this is the correct address. They told me to keep the returning 3 bottles and refunded just one subscription. The address was 129-20B 20th Ave Unit B. College Point NY 11356. Is this a scam or is this place really vacant? Can you help me?

Online Purchase - BootayBag

BootayBag used to be a legitimate subscription box company to which I have been a member since 2017, but within the last year or two began delivering cheap, mass-produced products rather than the in-house, high-quality designs they were marketed as. Scam #1! Members, including me, were often not notified of what their shipment would contain or whether it was coming at all until their card was charged and the company stopped sending/responding to emails and posting on social media. In November 2024, I received only some of what I ordered from their online shop with no indication of a future shipping date or “out of stock” notice for the rest of my order. As of Jan. 9, 2025 I have not received the product or a refund. Other members have reported being charged for monthly subscription bags that never arrived, with no prior email notification or company-issued refund. In mid-December 2024 I tried to log onto BootayBag’s website in order to check on my order and skip the next month’s subscription, but the website has disappeared and the url is up for auction by GoDaddy (their website hosting company). Their social media accounts have also been deactivated and emails sent to their business address are sent back as undeliverable. No notice of company closure was sent to customers or posted anywhere, nor do I have any assurance that my credit card information, billing address, etc. that was stored in my Member Portal is safe! And, again, I still have not been refunded for products I didn’t receive. It seems their very public-facing CEO, Ellyette Gheno (who even appeared on Shark Tank to fund the company’s expansion in 2020), has also all but disappeared from social media and is running away with as much money as she can take from her loyal subscribers!

This offer for Keto gummies kept popping up in the Word Search game on my phone. It was "endorsed" by Kelly Clarkston and Shark Tank. I decided to purchase and received 5 bottles of the gummies (150 gummies total), plus 2 bottles of "digestive cleanse." When my credit card bill came, not only was I charged the $59 that I expected, but an additional $199.85. Due to life happening, I did not remember to research what happened. The original purchase was 10/1024. In mid-November, I received another delivery of 150 gummies (5 bottles) of the Keto gummies. I searched my email and found no contact info. I tried searching the business name online and couldn't find anything. When my CC bill came at the end of November, there was another charge of $199.85 about the time the new package of gummies came in the mail. Early December I discovered a screenshot of the original purchase. There was a generic email address for customer service, in fine print, at the bottom. I sent an email and received no response. Mid-December, I received yet another shipment of 5 bottles of gummies. I sent YET ANOTHER email to the customer service demanding that they stop charging my card and sending the gummies OR I would be contesting the charges through my bank. I finally received a response that I could return the most recent package and obtain a refund. I shipped back the package on 12/21/24 and have delivery confirmation for 12/23/24. To date I have been offered a $100 refund--to which I replied that I expect a FULL refund because I returned the items and have proof of delivery. I have had no further correspondence from customer service nor have I received any refund.

I received a message that said a confirmation email would be sent shortly. I checked my bank account transactions and saw the amount charged was $50 more than I what I authorized.

I logged into what was suppose to be Kelly Clarkson's gummies but it changed me over to this website without my knowing it. This was not what I was suppose to be ordering.. This is still up on the Shark Tank website so others are being scammed too.

The two women were on Shark Tank. It was a face cream. Shark Tank did not aacept them, but they advertised their product. I tried the sample, which all i had to pay at the time. It was $6 and change for postage. I was hit by a car and in a coma a week after that purchase.. As i was in a coma they charged my card 3 times under disferent names. Stunning look $124.95 Youthful Glow $29.95 Complete your $129.95 AND, never received the products. After coming out of coma I found out. I called the number that was on my charge (800) 262-5905 and found it was disconnected. I call my bank ******* ********* to fight the charges. I was denied. I then filed a 2nd, and denied again. How did my bank not know it was a scam ? Well, ******* ********* called my account. Was it because it was a debit card, and they wouldnt get the money back ? Shame on them. This is a bank who only uses Senior Citizens. Well I am, and disabled. Is there any way you can help me ? I barely live on a fixed income. Right now I have 85 cents until the 3rd of July. What kind of bank are the, and dont let these scammers get away. Please help me get my money back. Thank you

Online Purchase - Online Retailer Scam

The ad stated two bottles for 39.98.. My credit card statement later showed I bought five bottles at 299.99. I called and they told me my order was already shipped when I asked them to stop the order that I thought their ad was very deceptive. They said they had a deal for me which was to refund me $100 which they did but I had to keep the five bottles of keto diet gummies at a cost of 99.99. This happening to often to people and it needs to stop!

Counterfeit Product - Keto

shows ad for diet plan that Kelly Clarkson/ Shark Tank approved. If you click on it takes you to the scam site and locks you in then even adds additional items for more money. Won't even let you back out. Of course, you already have entered a credit card. These companies are banking on being so ashamed you'll just pay, which I considered. But after talking to a real helpful customer card representative changed my mind. The card company is filing papers against this company etc. I've never have been so ashamed of being duped and thought I knew better. I do now. I reported the total Amount I could lose but my credit card is fighting the charge. This is bigger scam that anyone thinks and people just wanting to lose weight are being targeted. Sad but true including me.

I saw an ad while playing a game on April 20th, that showed Kelly Clarkson and the Shark Tank group selling the Keto ACV weight loss gummies. I placed an order by clicking on the link, I wanted the 6 bottles which was 239.98 but it came up with a detox pill for 79.99 which I did not want but I could only click continue. Hence the 2 charges. I never received an email from them with their terms. I received the shipment and thought all was complete. Today I received an email stating that a shipment had been made so I checked my credit card and I was charged the same 2 amounts again. I called the number that was displayed on the bank transaction. I was told that if I didn’t want the automatic shipping I was to call within 30 days of the first shipment. I never received their terms or an email stating this. I told person to cancel my account. But now I am out the money again and I cannot return it. What a scam. I am going to contact my bank to see if there is anything they can do.

Online Purchase - Keto Scam

The company made it look like Kelly Clarkson was promoting this product that was on Shark Tank. She talked about all the SCAMS and to be careful. She promoted that is the legitimate product and how she lost so much weight. So I thought I would try it, I normally do not order things online that aren’t from a reputable store. So choice the only promotion offered. It was for 2 bottles and 1 free for 39.99. So I put my information and credit card information and it didn’t except my card. The company sent me a message, they offered me a better promotion for my troubles. I think it was 2 or 3 bottles and 2 free for 29.99. So used different card went through. I didn’t receive any email/text that my order was received. I thought they didn’t receive the order until yesterday 5/4/2024 I received a package with 6 generic looking bottles with Keto on them no receipt for my purchase. Checked my credit card statement and there is a charge for 239.99.

Back in 2023, I thought I was buying a $39 gummies to help stop smoking. The ad was on FB and said it was from Shark Tank. When I realized they took $239 I immediately called and demanded a refund. They told me no refund, all sales final. But after insisting , they refunded 75%. I thought that was the end of it but then in March and again in April of 2024 I noticed a payment of $12.49 each that I never authorized and so I called and was told all sales final, no refund even though I didn't buy anything. I asked what it was for and was told it was for an online Health magazine. I don't read magazines and told them I did not buy any Health magazine. It was the same woman on the phone as last year. These people are fraudulently getting into people's Bank accounts after getting card numbers. Beware of clicking on any ad at all on FB!!!!! I even asked to speak to a supervisor and was told they could not transfer me to one. I believe they count on people not paying attention to their bank statements. I did not enter my bank card information into any website since last year when the gummy incident happened so I KNOW these people are scammers!!!

I became familiar with modadash on Facebook after seeing one of the Sharks from Shark Tank promoting their business. I purchased a carryon bag for work travel in January of 2024. After a month went by (delivery was guaranteed in 21 days), I contacted Customer Service about my product. I was told that my product was on its way and to allow for more time. I then contacted them again in March 2024 after not receiving it. I was then told it was sent to another address in error and that they would resend it out again. I provided them with my address again to ensure it was sent to the correct address. This time, I was provided with tracking information. I was told to allow for more time to receive it. I kept tracking it but it looked like it was delivered somewhere to customs in Alberquerque. I live in North Carolina. I contacted them again this week and was told that my bag was sent to a wrong address in error and to allow for them to resend it again. I curtly told them that I now wanted a refund. They kept offering to resend me another bag and never addressed my request for a refund. They are running some sort of scam. Despite the small amount of money spent, this could happen to someone else for a much larger sum. They need to be investigated.

Online Purchase - Quora Digest recommendation of serum

Through my email from Quora Digest on the evening of April 11, 2024 around 9:00 pm, I clicked a highlighted statement concerning a serum that would remove your skin tags and moles without having them removed by a medical person. It took me to information about what this serums does and that it was the No. 1 business through Shark Tank on TV. I noticed the secure .com website and all this overwhelming information to back up this product. However, being impressed by all of this put my Visa card information and pressed the order button. I expected to see some other information on the next page for a total charge and shipping but there was not another screen indicating this necessary information from me. Then a couple of minutes later I get a text from my credit union on the charge on my Visa card of $199.99 from this BIOLYF SUPLY. The amount was a lot more and I knew this was not a legit transaction. I had not completed all the information that should have been necessary. I told them NO when they asked me if I would ok this transaction. The credit union person left their number and I immediately called. I explained the situation and he told me it was declined and card not charged. He said at the very least it was a BAIT AND SWITCH. The website was not set up in the usual way and that should have been a RED FLAG! My thoughts were different - a SCAM!! If it sounds too good to be true, it more than likely is. He gave me a case number which he would notify my credit union and I should call them next morning. I did call them and they will close this card and reissue another cards for me. I got lucky! I am so grateful my credit union had my back! You can not be too careful these days. There are too many bad people out there trying to take advantage of others. What a tragedy it is this way. I, more than ever, will be on my guard!

Was charged $119 and had to call the number my credit card showed for the transaction which I was informed was a monthly subscription. I was able to get $59 credited and subscriptions stopped . Im still out $59 . and am going to throw away this product which looks fraudulent. The confirmation emails and tracking emails show no company name or information. This company should be shut down for misrepresentation and fraud.

Online Purchase - Bliss Keto Gummies Online Retail Scam

i ordered keto gummies advertised on shark tank and by kelly clarkson. Ordered 1 bottle. They fraudulently ordered 3 bottles and charged me $169. I called and tried to get a full refund. It was a call center. The agent offered a 35% refund. After lengthy discussion and wanted a manager, she offered a 65% discount. I said totally unacceptable. I again said to escalate the call to a manger for 6th time. She then offered a $114 credit that would take 5 business days to get. Then said to call once i receive the product to return it and get the rest of my money refunded. Interesting that she couldn't "STOP" the order having only placed it 30 minutes before I called them. But, said it was already being shipped. As you can see all kinds of fraud, lies and horrible customer service. The public needs to know that the company Bliss is a fraud.
