This business is presenting like a dispensary but it is a scam. You are forced to pay for your order before the delivery takes place. I either had to pay on the website or zelle. I chose to Zelle the payment as requested and I never received the product. I was forced to provide my driver's license with PII for age verification. I paid $120 for 3 products I never recieved. At the last minute, they couldnt verify my info and asked me to pay for a temporary medical ID which is BS. I have my state medical card, theres no reason a reputable dispensary couldnt verify my info. Stop these people before they rip off any other innocent people!

Online Purchase - Online Retail Scam Dispensary

I was looking for a dispensary near me that delivered, and I saw the company on Apple Maps on my iPhone. When I clicked on it, it said that they were just delivery.  Their website and Google reviews and everything looked very legitimate. I noticed afterwards when I paid and did not receive what I ordered that something was wrong. So then I texted the number and received no reply. When I googled the number, I found the Better Business Bureau page saying that it was a scam.

I placed an order for “asap 30-minute delivery” on the website and received a confirmation email. The order included my phone number, so later I received a text from someone asking for a payment method. I decided to do zelle and the person Texting instructed me on how to complete payment giving me a name and different phone number to use on Zelle. I went to my checking Zelle account and when I completed the process, I texted a screenshot as instructed. It has now been two hours and the person is not responding to my text nor was anything delivered. That prompted me to go back into Zelle to cancel the transaction. I also screenshotted that confirmation to the person, but I have not received a response. I have the email and text messages as proof of this incident.

Online Purchase - Online Purchase - Cannabis Delivery Scam

Im out of state for a conference. I live in Utah but noticed that Virginia has recreational cannabis. I have a med card for Utah and make online orders in utah all the time. An order was made through the website, and the website works a lot like other dispensary websites I work with in Utah. I tried to make a payment but for “some reason,” I couldn’t get it to work. So, I contacted the seller through the sms chat and they directed me to pay through Zelle. I wasn’t totally thrown off by that because in Utah you can’t pay debit for cannabis, you have to use dutchiepay or something like that. So it didn’t set any red flags there. But, then the seller told me I needed to sign up for delivery insurance according to state law. I looked and it was going to be a “refundable” $399 charge that I would get back as soon as the delivery was complete. This is where I stopped and told the seller that this wasn’t right. They said it was state law and I would get a refund. I told them that was absolutely not a thing. I didn’t hear back after that.

Called the number provided from google, the guy said delivery only after certain hour, and no cash trades. Once payment received they will start the delivery, and will be arrived within 10-20 min. They will ask you to confirm the payment by sending him the screenshot of zelle payment (dont do this, authorized transaction, bank cant reimburse you). Then you wait forever. Suddenly they dont pick up your phone call. After about an hour, you will get a msg from delivery guy saying he can come to you now, and wants your new location , additional charge of 30 dollars. Upfront payment only, no cash. Told him will meet him up at the original place where we suppose to meet to avoid additional charges, asked him to confirm the address, he had no idea where we suppose to meet up even. After we figured out he couldnt even confirm the addy and saying the wrong address, they blocked our caller ids and ate the money. Main tower/caller for their number is 1 (806) 507-4726, (texas number in LA) delivery guy number is +1 (214) 244-0648. Im sure those 2 runs the scam business and getting ready hard before to get ICEd.

Identity Theft - Business ID Theft - Fake Online Cannabis Website

I am the owner of Salud Total Corp for 15 years now. On Google, I had posted my business info and pics. On Saturday, May 10, 2025, a young couple came in asking me if I was a dispensary. I told them that this was an herbal supplement store. He told me that he googled it and my store came up. he showed me his cellphone and it was true. Whoever did this, has changed the store name to Salud Total Dispensary Recreational Delivery Store. They also included the following website: greendispensary.store which has an SMS number 1-929-708-9406 They also included photos that are not from my store. I contacted the local precinct and the police officer looked up my info and saw what I was talking about. She advised me not to get in contact with these people because we don't know who they may be and what they are capable of doing. She said they couldn't do anything because it is not an offense. She did tell me to report it to Google. I flagged and reported the photos to Google. Reported the incident and still waiting for their response. I have been getting people coming to the store asking for dispensary stuff. I want the information to be corrected, the photos removed, but most importantly the website. If people do not get the items ordered, they will come here and cause problems and I have nothing to do with it.

They were claiming to be associated with an actual business in California. But it turns out the business does not exist in this state (Burlington, VT) and the real business is in no way associated. They text messaged claiming they would deliver in 20 minutes asked for payment via AppleCash or Venmo. The AppleCash option didn't even work, which should have been our first clue, but have had similar issues with REAL businesses, so it didn't send a red flag. Then when we asked where they are, after the allotted time had passed, they said something about the order being processed as a Medical Card order instead of a recreational order. Then said they couldn't cancel the order or payment. We assume they were simply waiting for the payment to process, so they kept us "on the line".

This is evil. They claim to be a 24/7 medical marijuana dispensary. I ordered and there was no word of this company being a medical-only dispensary. Thankfully, I had a medical card.

I attempted to buy CBD from Pet-Botanicals. Order was paid for in full and a month later still no product. When I reached out to ask for the product or a refund I got email, text and phone calls from Roger Rodkey who claims to be the owner. He threatened me with his attorneys if I said one bad thing about his company. He said he gave me a refund but I have still yet to receive it. This man has threatened me. Called me names and belittled me. All because I said I thought I was being scammed and I wanted a refund. I have a very sick dog and was hoping CBD may help him in someway. He is a rescue I have only had for 9 months and I would like to help him over the rainbow bridge comfortably. He accused me of being a breeder. I am not. Years ago I did breed and show dogs. Once I realized it doesnt matter how much people pay for a dog they still end up in shelter. I quit and started rescuing. This man is scary to deal with. Just dont do it save your money and go to a local dispensary. Thank you for your time. I have kept all emails and text messages for evidence.

Driving long distance, decided to stop in Ohio. I read online that Ohio allows recreational marijuana. Googled search and came across a dispensary that was not far from my hotel. I sent a text asking how late they are open. The person replied 24 hours. They offered delivery. I told them okay I'll contact when I arrive to my hotel. Got to my hotel, placed the order online on the website, I got through Google. Website looks very legit by the way. Placed the order sent the person a message to let them know the order was placed. He then asked for payment through Apple Cash. I sent the payment. He then asked for additional $100 for "insurance for delivery to be refunded upon delivery " I fussed him out about it telling him I believe he is scamming me. He said I should trust him it's not like that. I sent the $100 for his "insurance" he said he was on the way to arrive in 15 minutes. Then he sent another text, asking for another $100 and that's when I knew for a fact he was scamming. When I called to find out what the issue is and why he stole from me, he began to say he's a "dangerous person" and he "has a AK47" and he "wants to and will have sex with Me" ... my husband intervened and took the phone from me. He tried to reason with the guy and said if you can't deliver then refund me my money. The person continued with the empty threats. Beware of this so called company. If you're like me where you work hard for yours, and you enjoy a little recreational fun, only trust the dispensaries in your hometown. Not in another state especially not in Columbus Ohio

We first came upon the business by looking up dispensaries near me that were still open. We found one where we could do an online pickup, so I called the number listed. I proceeded to place my order and ask for the total. The merchant said the total would be 25 dollars, including tax. I then asked if they take cash or cards. They said Apple Cash. They sent me a different number ( 646-351-9320) to send the money to and then requested a screenshot sent to the original number (619-214-8486). They then asked if I had a medicinal card, and I said no, I had an ID. They said they could only help me if I had a medicinal card and that they could give me a temporary one for an additional 20 dollars that I would be refunded. I then sent the other 20 dollars. They then requested an additional 29 dollars for delivery insurance that would be " refunded." So, I proceeded to send 29 more dollars. They then told me they were sending an agent out with my order. They then told me I needed to pay 49 dollars that would be "refunded" to get a code to get all of my money they said they would refund me. So I sent the 49 dollars because, at this time, I asked if I could cancel the order, and they told me they were unable to and they couldn't refund me without the 49 dollars due to policy. So, I proceeded to send more money. They then said we needed to pay 50 dollars, which would be refunded for the delivery fee. I paid the final 50 dollars because they said that was the last fee. They then requested another 49 dollars. I refused to pay. I then got out of the car and asked a bystander if they knew where the dispensary was, and he said it shut down and moved. I then called the number one more time, and they hung up on me. I called the police, and they recommended to file a report here.

Online Purchase - Essence Green Cannabis Dispensary

Scammer has my business address listed on their website to have individuals come to their "dispensary". The business I manager is a City and County of Denver business and there is no dispensary located at this site. We would like to have the address *** ** ****** removed from the site as potential threats can be led to our business establishment to be scammed by someone located in Dallas, Texas.

Online Purchase - Epic Weed Farms

Posing as legitimate dispensary, paid through Apple Cash and they claimed to not receive the payment and to resend it thru a different number. When a refund was requested they refused, stating they don’t have the funds. Everything was confirmed on my side, meaning they had received the funds. Never received a refund.

Online Purchase

Tried to buy some delta-8 online and have it delivered but it never happened. They nabbed me for $115 dollars, the info to my place of residence, as well as my phone/email address. Scammer had me pay using APPLE PAY via text by alternate phone number (682-318-6910). Order was confirmed by the number listed on the site before having me pay a "Cashier" the apple phone # listed above. They've both been unresponsive since but have not attempted to block me yet. Call the phone number listed on the website and see what the automated voicemail recording says. Wished I'd called it before giving them money but hopefully this can be addressed before medical patients try to order from the same site.
