We requested service of an outdoor gas fire pit through Somerset Chimney and Fireplace Services and was connected with "Duct Duct Cleaning LLC". Their team came on site to inspect the fire pit and determined that it needed a full replacement for $4,500.00 plus tax and would not be able to be replaced for two weeks. When we told them we could not wait that long and would look for other options, they let us know that they could have it fixed that day. They removed the unit and returned hours later with our old unit spray painted black. When questioned about it, they threatened to take all of the "new" parts installed back. But when we asked where our old parts were, they told us they were thrown in the trash in Philadelphia. We have been trying to connect with all parties involved to get a full replacement completed and/or a refund for the charges that did not reflect the agreed upon service.

I was approached via email about a painting job. Dalton Martinez wanted me to give him a quote on painting the inside of his home before he moved in about a month. He gave me specific dimensions of each room as well as trim lengths and doors. He made no mention of where the place was and when I asked specific questions about what type of windows he had and other details, he was very dismissive. He said that he knew the price could fluctuate but wanted a rough number to avoid delays. I have him a number and he accepted right away. Then he sent me a check for half of my payment but also included money for me to pay for the supplies that he had ordered. So the check was for $12,860 and came from a Bacon Wilson P.C. in Springfield, Massachusets. My part was a little over $5000. He had me deposit the check and wait for it to clear, which it did. Then he asked me to wire $6,900 to USMART LOGISTICS LLC Dysinger Road, Lockport, NY 14094. I did so and discovered an hour or so later that this was most likely a scam. He then told me that we hadn't sent enough and I should send $1000 via Zelle to [email protected] named Leanord Davis III. I ignored that. The next day I was sent another check from Bacon Wilson for $14,070. Today he called me repeatedly, but I ignored him. The original check for $12,860 then bounced, and I'm being charged $20 for a returned check fee plus I'm out the $6900 that I wrote and the $30 wiring fee. I should have known better, and in hindsight all the signs I should have seen were there. I'm in conversation with the bank at the moment about my options.

Fake extended warranty

I heard about the job from a work from home influencer on TIK TOK. I applied for a job and completed on boarding process. Uploaded ID, Social Security Card, Verified Address via Bank Statement. Set-up Direct Deposit. The sent an offer Letter with explanation of benefits. Website has a dashboard you have to complete one onboarding task before you can access the next one. Once I go to the training portion they ask for money for the three separate 10 minute training videos and the pay its approx. 39.99 per training. I discovered from others online that they ask for more money later down the line to have equipment shipped and to download software. I also tried to send a message via the chat box on on their website but it did not work.

This person offered me a work at home job in which I didn't apply for. It was to receive packages or pick them up from various companies around my house (USPS, UPS, Fed Ex, etc). Then "inspect" these packages, and re-ship them internationally. They offered to pay me $4,400 each month, plus a $40 dollar bonus per package send. However, I would have to do this job for the entire first month without getting paid. This person sent me a long contract to fill out with my information. I did some research to find out this is very likely a " package mule scam".

Mr Scammahorn sold us a pool safety cover which he never delivered or installed. The issue began in the fall of 2022 when we issued the first check for product which was never delivered. The deception continued in the summer of 2025 when additional checks were written for the purchase and installation of the pool safety cover and motor. The checks totaled more than $14,000. No pool safety cover or motor was ever delivered or installed.

So I am unemployed currently. I was on the hunt for a job on Indeed's job board. I saw a Job Listing for a "Mailroom Specialist" for the company "Cocay Branding". I am running low on funds so I saw the pay and applied. They called me asking me about some basic info like my email, my home address, my name, etc. so i gave it to them. It seemed like a pretty standard interview. Then came the wierd part. They then had me filled out a form for employment. On this form they had me take pictures of the front and back of my id as well as a picture of me holding my id. They had me do this while still on the line with them. I swear i had been asked about that from a job before so i did it. IN HINDSIGHT, JOBS WILL ONLY ASK THIS AFTER THEY HAVE ALREADY HIRED YOU IF AT ALL. I then did my research to find out indeed has fake job offers at times. I thought it was a totally safe place. To all my fellow unemployed, please be careful as I have never fallen for a scam before until this one. They are getting smarter so you must be so very careful and always do your research first.

Received post card in the mail. Researched name & phone number as there are no specific details regarding my mother's home listed outside of the address. Ran across similar scam documented on BBB website.

Website advertises itself as “Canadian Home Decor and Fashion”. It sells a wide variety of items and the website presents itself as credible by providing reviews by customers. The red flag which lead to more digging is that no tax was charged to order. No receipt was sent and the e-mail confirmation had no identifying details that linked it to the site. The credit card charge was from Hong Kong (N2P*V artshopfback) and when googled alerted that it was linked scams. After some digging it appears that the entire website is copied from Amazon listings word for word, down to the reviews. I requested a cancellation of the order 30mins after purchase was made and their response was that it was already sent when they responded 16 hours later. Only other correspondence was fake tracking details that were sent from track718.us. Additional research found that the website was also created only a month prior.

I purchased a small vacuum from their website. I received an email confirming receipt of my order. I never received an email after that stating that the item was shipped. I emailed them a week later three days in a row inquiring about shipping eta, to no avail. I called them to and left a voicemail. Still no response. Out of curiosity, I then googled "Is Balma Home legitimate". The response Google's AI gave me was that this company has been reported multiple times and is suspected of being a scam. I notified my credit card company immediately. . I am glad I used a credit card instead of my debit card. Do not ever attempt to purchase anything from this company. It is 100% a fraud.

I clicked on an instagram add with the exact people and items from the original website. I didn’t realize it took me to a fake copy cat of the actual moco boutique site. I made a purchase and then realized the site was fake so they have my email, home address, and credit card information

Leslie called to say a lien against my home residence was in affect unless I sent $3500 by debit/credit card only to cover a City Bank credit card in default with a balance of $13,842. Would nit give me an address, only that she was in California and the lawyer would not accept a cashiers check.

I got a call from a representative of "City Roofers" saying they're going to do a free inspection of my home. I asked if the company's based in Grand Island. The man said something to the effect of 'yeah, we're out in the community now' so I asked where the office is. "Technically, we're not in your city," he replied. He sure implied they were based here. I asked where the office was and he admitted he had no idea. He works from home making calls. I identified myself as a journalist, which I am, and asked if he was misleading people. He hung up. A name like "City Roofers" is difficult to Google. I can't find a company called that locally. I also find no company registered with a name like that in the Secretary of State's database.

Digital Promotion Assistant job offered, flexible work from home role. Said Alison at Kelly Services recc. me (have no idea who that is). Crazy salary and commission tier system with "VIP" levels. Tried to get me into training, but never sent me the link. But did send me "good morning, may today bring you great results / Let's make today productive" texts.

I received voice mails from field agent Mike Mason saying Im being sued and that he would be at my home and my job within an hour and I needed my Id available. He is also calling my family members and leaving messages for me.

I was being scammed by a prospective employer who had me fill out employment paperwork that includes my SSN and gave my license info.

reaching out as extended warranty for my vehicle had my vehicles information as well as asking for my routing and account# saying that I was going to get xyz coverage for 36 mo.

Letter in mail stating I needed to call immediately regarding vehicle warranty for a vehicle I do not nor have ever had

I’m taking care of my elderly parents’ mail and have received at least 20 letters from this company. Finally, I called the number just to see what the deal was. It’s a scam to get you to purchase a home warranty due to “there being work on your plumbing and electrical in the neighborhood.”

Time sensitive "Official Business" document for a new vehicle purchase, talking about warranty information. Sought approximately $240 while I was on the phone. Bottom of the letter lists the name as Jeff Morton, Program Coordinator, at 1-888-926-1464

Frank and Anthony called my cell number and my elderly mothers home phone number wanting to get in touch with me. I returned there call only to be told they had a civil case against me for a car loan in 2003. I explained the cars computer chip solely shut down after six months of ownership and they told me they would garnish my wages, take a second lien on my current auto loan, report to credit bureaus, talked disgustingly nasty about they were coming for me and I need to be "clean" because they were going to clean me out themselves. I told them NOT to talk to me that way or call again. They said they would take me to court and get whatever they wanted from me. I told them to cease and desist and they laughed at me and told me to pay my f'ing bills...

Job was offered via email. I provided my name & address. Then a fake check arrived at my home. This is a crime & attempt to defraud me.

A while back i landed a job that seemed too good to be true. The job? Data Entry Specialist - Work from home by lovebound destinations. Of course some would turn heads at this offer and i applied. I was having feelings about this job, i pushed it all aside. But then they sent me an email: Subject: [Application Update] Meeting Requested! "Hey ___, Thanks for your application. Unfortunately, the position you applied for has been filled. However, after further reviewing your resume and past work experience, we believe you'd be a great fit for another remote position we currently have available. Please schedule a meeting with our founder to learn more about the position, pay, and our company. Choose a time slot here: (Calendly thing) We look forward to learning more about you and potentially bringing you onboard our team! – Management Team" the day of the interview. I thought this was going to be a one on one interview, boy was i WRONG. The guy immediately told us to stay mute and our camera's had to say ON the entire time as he goes on about the company's success. He was an....You know. The entire time we couldn't ask questions or even talk to him openly but in private message within the group. The moment he said his name was Mark and no last name, i thought "Oh yay my first pyramid scheme experience." So i did what any normal person would do. I stayed to observe. "Mark" would go on about the whole thing about him being the CEO of the company, telling us about the great benefits of this job. The moment he wanted us to "buy" something about $60 I just left the call. Also here he is:

The man wouldn't answer questions .I asked him what company he represented and he said Met Life and Farmer's Insurance . I have never had home owners protection . I told him so . I have never dealt with Met Life or Farmers Insurance . I never gave him time to do his sales pitch , I simply hung up .

Keep getting calls on home & cell phone regarding a loan for $58,000 which I have never asked for nor do I need. Have not spoke with any of the people who have called nor have I returned their calls.

I ordered a pair of boots on August 25, 2025 from Natalie Boutique online. I made attempts to check the shipping status on Sept 12, 17, 18, 25, and Oct 2. I got a response on August 26 stating that my order would be 'delivered to my home quickly'. There is no tracking info available now. The only tracking info I was able to find for 2 weeks following the order said it was coming from the Netherlands. When I inquired about that I got the response that my order would be delivered to my home quickly. On Sept 18, after 18 business days, I sent an email requesting a refund. I have sent 3 requests for refund since then. No responses to any of my requests.

Letter appeared to be a final notice. It states “our records indicate that you have not contacted us to have your vehicle service contract activated. We are informing you that if your factory warranty has expired, you will be responsible for paying any repairs. However, if expired, you can still activate a service contract on your vehicle before it’s too late“. It then goes over a summary of terms, approval number, vehicle protection information, and a coverage explanation. It also came with the phone number 888–404–1912. The top left says “official business. Penalty for private use, $300”. This is followed by a barcode, customer ID, andnotice date. The letter was mailed from Santa Ana, California.

There was an ad on tiktok that I thought was a collab or just the warehouse specific website under sylorva but it was using zumiez. I originally clicked on the top portion (as in the header saying Zumiez) and it brought me to a fake home page so I just assumed it was real for some odd reason. I didn’t realize this was a scam until I went to Zumiez and realized it was a completely different website.

Paid for a puppy and then was sent to a shipping place that kept asking for money and not shipping the puppy I refused to send any more money and they threatened me with animal abuse still have not received money back this is added to the original 2150 that I already paid this is the shipping place https://www.shipeaselogistics.xyz/ Dear Tina M Heinrich, We are writing to inform you of an important requirement from the licensed courier service that will be responsible for delivering your puppy safely to your home. As part of their compliance and welfare assurance policy, the courier mandates a Capability Fee. This fee serves as a refundable deposit to demonstrate that the receiving owner has the means, readiness, and commitment to properly care for the puppy upon arrival. Why This Fee Is Required It confirms to the courier that the new family is prepared and capable of ensuring the well-being of the animal. It is a measure to discourage irresponsible adoptions or abandoned deliveries, which unfortunately have occurred in the past. It allows the courier to legally register your puppy for transportation under their animal welfare and transport guidelines. Key Details Fee Type: Capability Fee (refundable deposit) $2,150 Required By: Ship Ease Logistics Purpose: To activate and secure the delivery process of your puppy Refund Policy: 100% refundable immediately after safe delivery of your puppy to your address Condition: Payment must be received by the courier before the puppy is cleared for departure Please note that without this deposit, the courier is unable to proceed with the transport, and the puppy’s delivery would be placed on hold. Once your Capability Fee is confirmed, your puppy will be scheduled for dispatch with full tracking details provided to you. We kindly ask that you complete this step as soon as possible so the courier can finalize the logistics and avoid unnecessary delays. If you have any questions or need clarification, please do not hesitate to contact us. We remain available to guide you through every stage of this process. Please be advised that failure to proceed within the next 24 to 72 hours will be considered a case of pet abuse and abandonment, which is a serious offense under federal and state animal welfare laws. Abandoning or neglecting an animal under our care exposes the pet to potential harm and discomfort, and such negligence is punishable by: A fine of up to $10,000, And/or a jail term of up to 2 years, depending on the jurisdiction and severity of the case. We urge you to take immediate action by finalizing all pending responsibilities to ensure the pet’s safety and prevent legal escalation. If no response or resolution is made within the stated time frame, we will be compelled to initiate legal proceedings, and our legal team will be in contact with you. Thank you for your cooperation and for showing the commitment required to welcome your new puppy into a safe and loving home. Warm regards, Thank you. The Management Team.

On Monday, October 6, 2025, in the mail I received an unsolicited cash offer with a fake check for $354,360 to purchase my house which is not for sale. The agent named on the correspondence was Amber Davis. The telephone number on the letter goes to a voice mail of an unidentified male who requests that you leave your number. The voicemail message fails to identify the name of any real estate agency or person. The reverse number showed that the number is not identifiable. By a simple Google search, I located the real Amber Davis who is a licensed real estate agent with Caldwell Banker and who stated that she is not associated with DC Home Buyers and that her agency never sends checks or cash offers. She said the check is fake and that she has received other callers and had reported to the Caldwell Banker’s Legal Department that someone is using her name without authorization. She had me text her a copy of the letter I received which I sent to her so that she could forward it to her legal department too. Ms. Davis texted me her business card and her number is 703-899-8178. This mailing appears to be a scam. My only guess is if I were to call the 301 fake number and leave my contact info the scammer will call me back and try to obtain my personal info to steal my house from under me on trick me to cash a fake check, which will cause my bank to charge back to me. Please be aware. The address on the letter was found to be for a UPS store so that is fake too.

I am a NYC resident and I needed service on my Miele refrigerator in a condo I own in RI. I tried contacting Miele on 10/9/25 using the various phone numbers listed in the Miele manual, but I got voicemails saying their offices were closed even though I was calling during business hours, which was very strange. So, I went online and searched google for Miele refrigerator repairs in RI and a website pulled up that looked like Miele's but unbenownst to me was actually a spoofed website. I filled out an online service request on the spoofed website, providing my phone number. About two minutes later my phone rang from a 718 number. It was a man who said he was calling about the refrigerator. I told him I almost didn't pick up because the service I need is in RI (indicated in my online service request), not NY. He confirmed the RI address and asked me to send him the building's certificate of insurance guidelines. I just so happens my building does require this. So he gave me his email address and I emailed it to him. I saw from the email that his name is John Colita. I asked him if he was a Miele employee and he said yes. I then told him I tried calling Miele and I only got voicemails saying their offices were closed. He said I was probably calling the wrong number. This was sounding fishy, because I got the numbers from the Miele manual. I also recalled that when I filled out the online form, there was a long pull-down list of refrigerator brands, from which I selected Miele. If the website was really Miele's website, then there shouldn't be that pulldown list. I then googled John's phone number and there was a BBB scam report listing his phone number in which the customer, from NY, was scammed when he sought service on a Thermodor refrigerator. I abruptly told John that I wanted to cancel my request for a service visit. He asked why and I told him that his phone number was listed on a BBB scam report and I even emailed him a link to the report. He said he couldn't open the link. He didn't push the matter and said he understood if I wanted to cancel my request for service. I am thankful that someone reported this to the BBB. Otherwise, I might have been scammed too. Addendum: I later was able to contact the commercial side of Miele by phone and the man I spoke to explained that the residential division was experiencing some technical issues, which is why I got a voicemail during office hours.

Received voicemail 9/19/25 from 682-277-4361 and another with the same message on 10/1/25 from 214-983-3472. "This message is solely intended for (use my maiden name of 15+ years ago).

A scammer got into our neighborhood Facebook group a year ago (in hindsight, it's clear that he had screen-grabbed from a real person's Facebook to make it appear to be a legit neighbor). Just last week he posted in the Facebook group about a duct cleaning service from someone he had used in the past and was very happy with. He said we could get a group discount if more people signed up - $150 - and gave a name and number to contact. After scheduling via text, a man arrived for my appointment and introduced himself as Liam Yehuda. He brought in a machine to do the suction, which I commented seemed very quiet. He then proceeded with the inspection. He indicated there was mildew and that it needed a deep cleaning and it would cost $1,600. This was a hand written quote with multiple options going as high as $2,000. He said he'd give me a discount so it would cost $850, and said he'd show me the process. I looked at his "equipment" which was a long tube with small brush on the end and a shop vac. I declined the deep cleaning, gave him a check for $150 because I wanted him out of my home. The name is Liam Yehuda. He claimed to be a subcontractor for a business named Green Cleaning but didn't have a business card, website or contact information. He only wanted cash or Zelle, but accepted a check. He is clearly a scammer who wants quick cash.

I received a call from 608-581-9105. The caller claimed to be Sara Cromer with the Wisconsin State Processing Unit and left a voicemail. She said there was going to be a summons in my county for debt collection and provided the last four digits of my social security number and my home address. She told me to call back Morris and Jacobs at 833-941-7376. I have received no other correspondence pertaining to a debt and this appears to be a scammer.

I applied for home loans in September and had my credit thoroughly checked through Chase Bank and another one that I can't remember. I do not have any open credit card debt, and I knew that I had paid everything off a very long time ago. They claimed that I owed over $1,000 to CitiBank and that they would only charge me 30%. They quickly transferred me to a manager that instantly answered and was trying to explain to me why I haven't been contacted for this debt for the past almost 10 years. I can't remember the name of the company that he said they purchased the debt from. He stated that they've been trying to call since September, which is when ironically I was applying for home loan. They told me to be diligent about scams because it somehow lets them know you have money. I looked up the REAL phone number and found out that it was not that of the company and discovered it was listed on this website. I called back to let him know, he offered to instantly transfer to me to management again and before I could even hang up he started talking. I hung up. They sounded like they were from India, I don't mean that a racist way, I actually visited India for a week. I was almost taken for a scam on an unbelievably great deal for a property (which I was desperately in search of) that had actually already sold. Luckily I didn't send money in, I called the realtor on the listing instead. You're much more vulnerable when looking at a prospective new future with something that makes your heart sing. Please everyone be careful!

In the summer/fall of 2024, I contracted with W3 Home Solutions (owner: James Williams, Medina, OH) for home repair jobs. He was recommended by Thumbtack. Over a period of a year, the company took about $60,000; no repair work was completed and work that had been accomplished had to be repaired (pipes continued to leak, dry wall hung wrong). On June 30, 2025, Mr. Williams said they would be back to complete the work, after vacation, however they never returned. Shari Aldridge 216.538.7929
