I was purchasing a Maine coon cat from a lady named Brenda Marie in Birmingham AL. I sent Brenda a deposit of 300.00 to start the shipment, then next morning this company contacted me by text message to ask if I would receive the shipment I stated yes, they went on to state there was insurance to pay to deliver but it would be refunded. I paid the 299 after I paid that fee, they stated it was 200 extra for stamp delivery. I told them I would not pay anymore, they told me it would be refunded apon delivery, I contacted Brenda Marie to tell her the problem she stated I could not come pick up the animal because I choose shipping and I had to pay the 200 to receive the animal. after I paid her 300 and the shipping place 299. they were stating more money, or I would not receive the Maine coon. I have screen shot messages from both people as I feel this is either the same person or a team. They also use the phone numbers 240-831-2054 and 269-403-9957. They requested money through Apple pay and chime only.

Romance

Summary: I am reporting a potential long-term romance scam involving a person identifying herself as “Giada Gianavella”, who used the phone number (774) 707-6674 and claimed to reside in North Attleboro, MA (but is now linked via lookup tools to Framingham, MA). ?? Key Details: Name Used: Giada Gianavella Phone Number: (774) 707-6674 Claimed Location: North Attleboro, Massachusetts Likely Location: Framingham, Massachusetts (confirmed by Truecaller) Alleged DOB: July 20, 1981 Photo Clues: Frequently shared personal photos featuring: A white Siberian Husky A second unidentified dog Several tattoos Personal Claims: Underwent pancreatic tumor removal surgery in 2022 or 2023 Cared for or referenced a young boy named Liam, possibly a nephew Claimed her online presence was non existent due to the confidential nature of her job Repeatedly made excuses not to video chat or meet in person, despite emotional involvement ?? Context: My boyfriend had a prolonged emotional/romantic relationship with this person entirely remotely — no video calls, no in-person meetings. Despite this, he: Spoke to her by phone numerous times Was emotionally invested and relocated from Louisiana to Massachusetts in hopes of meeting her Introduced her (by name) to family and friends Believed he spoke to her post-surgery via phone When he finally pushed to meet in person, she continuously delayed, made excuses. A year ago he told this person he was no longer interested and blocked them after they refused his decision. He now fully believes this was a scam or emotional manipulation and has cut ties, though he was too embarrassed to report it at the time. ?? Investigation Findings: Photos shared with him return no results on Google Reverse Image Search or TinEye Images contain no metadata AI image detection suggests they are real photographs, not AI-generated The phone number is publicly traceable to Framingham, MA, not North Attleboro There is no verifiable online presence under the name “Giada Gianavella” that matches her claims, photos, or life details ?? Why This Matters: This appears to be a targeted emotional scam — one where financial loss may not have been the motive, but emotional manipulation and deception clearly were. It mirrors patterns seen in: Long con romance scams False identity impersonation Emotional grooming or online catfishing I’m submitting this report to help protect others from similar deception. If anyone else has had contact with “Giada Gianavella” or this phone number, please come forward.

Contacted Adorable Shitzu Puppies for Adoption and Rehoming about a puppy. They were supposed to deliver puppy and never showed up. Then I received a message that the granddaughter was in a bad wreck so they were going to “The Agency” and they would deliver puppy and I would pay them. I was then contacted by shipping company and they said I needed to pay $100 insurance and I would get a full refund upon delivery. They wanted payment by gift card, when I said no they said Apple Pay, Venmo, etc… when I told them no that wasn’t the way legit businesses worked I didn’t hear from them in a couple days. Was contacted by breeder that they were going to sue us for puppy abandonment.

I work for a spa in New Orleans called Glasskin. We've been getting multiple calls from people about online orders they've placed that they haven't received for items we don't carry. We only carry skincare and one person said they ordered a dog toy and another said they ordered a hard drive. The first person who called was able to give us the email address that they received their confirmation email from which was [email protected]. I was able to find the website through Google. It said it was trust pilot certified with over 1000 reviews, but when I searched their name in trust pilot, there was no listing for them, so I believe is a scam/fake company.

To Whom It May Concern, I am writing to formally dispute the validity of a debt that has been reported under my name. I have recently been contacted by January Technologies Inc., claiming they purchased a debt originally owned by another collector. However, I have no knowledge of this debt and firmly assert that it is fraudulent. At the time of the alleged debt, I was a victim of identity theft. This debt was not authorized by me, nor did I receive any services or funds related to it. Furthermore, January Technologies has failed to provide me with the original statement or any verifiable documentation proving that this debt is legitimately mine. According to the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA), I am requesting full validation of this debt, including: • The name of the original creditor, • The original account number, • A copy of the signed agreement or application, • A complete payment history, • And any documentation showing I had knowledge of or responsibility for this debt. Until this information is provided, I do not acknowledge this debt and request that all collection activity cease immediately. Additionally, this fraudulent account must be removed from all consumer credit reports in accordance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA). Sincerely,

Also, if the customer is not satisfied, there is a money back guaranteed within 30 days.

Placed an order for a puppy that was advertised on their website. Seemed ready to accommodate me. Was anxious to receive there money. The wording in the emails was kind of “off”. Talking about how the shipping paper work might take one hour to 24 hours to complete. There were some other slight. Lies that this was a scam. For example the address on the invoice was Nebraska but they said the puppy would be flown out of Zimmerman,Minnesota. I foolishly sent my money. It took 2 days to clear and I did not hear back from seller. Called the number on the invoice and phone was answered by a.foreign man. He said oh yes they would send puppy. I would probably get it in a day or two. Didn’t realize they were holding till August for me. Looked the company up on BBB and found several cases against them.

I received phone calls from several different numbers all starting with area code 504 and beginning with 977 every day for 6 days attempting to help me make sure my business comes up in search results for people using siri and other voice search devices. After learning the cost was $199.00, I repeatedly asked to be removed from their call list, only to be called back day after day. I angrily demanded to be put on the no-call list, to no avail. Today, after their 6th call, I demanded to speak to a supervisor and was told they had no supervisors and they also would not tell me their company name. I said it was illegal to call me after being told to put me on the no-call list and they hung up on me.
