I purchased a solar fan hat, but they provided a fake tracking number, JSEXS0984179952YQ. It showed it was delivered on I believe 6/26, then I reached out via email to let them know I never received it, and checked the tracking again, and then it said it was delivered 6/27. I emailed again and received no response. The website and now tracking number are no longer available.

I was buying a three-light solar lamp post with planter. They were buy one get one free. I purchased through TikTok, but Pure Peak Shop is who charged my credit card. I never received my order.

The Meraki solar workers came to my home and offered solar panels to reduce my electric bill. They mentioned by bill will be reduced and offered a loan to help and It was a scam after a couple of months of imstallation my electric bill stayed the same and i was paying them and would call and call to find a solution after a while they stopped answering my calls and its has been 3 years with the same situation and no solution. As the fact that the panels never worked and was never given any more updates or refund.

I am certain this website is offering items for prices that are way too cheap. Like a bluetti ac200p that includes the solar panels and generator fo 39.99. This same unit sell for 1399 on Amazon. The one that got me to click was the Dualtron off road escooter for 39.99. This similar escooter is selling for closer to $800-$900. Or the mini digger with actual Kubota engine for $49. These sell for thousands of dollars.

This company, "Smart Solar," has been calling me for over a week from different numbers all with my same area code. They keep calling for one of my relatives, and when I explained that I was not the intended recipient they listed my relative's full name and address, wanting me to confirm. One of the representatives argued with me and tried to get me to offer my own personal information. I told them multiple times to take me off their call list but have continued receiving calls. When I call back the numbers they have called me from, the calls do not connect.

Purchased a mirror that I never received .I think this is a scam don't buy from here.Solar Flame Torch in San Diego Ca

I ordered this product over a month ago and still haven't received it. There is nobody to talk to and they will not reach out to me about what is going on and the status.

The individual asked to see my Xcel Energy bill and asked me to log in to my Xcel account so they could approve a 5% discount for using energy from a solar farm in the area. Thee\y initially claimed they were with Xcel but mentioned a third party company. They were not wearing an branded polo, they did not have a business card and kept pushing for me to login to my Xcel energy account. I had them write down information on a sticky note so I could look into things later. The information given to me was: Sylas Trask 802-922-7592 my.sunscription.com/enrollment promo: rr-SylasTrask

I attempted to buy a hat from SolarBrim on May 27th 2025. I purchased the hat from their website. The order "shipped" on June 2nd 2025. It is now June 25th 2025 and I still have not received my item, nor has any shipping info updated. I reached out to them via their contact on their website on June 10th inquiring about my order. I did not receive any email back until June 15th. In my initial email, I advised I would like a refund as this item was a Father's Day gift. Solar Brim stated: "Thanks for reaching out, and I’m really sorry to hear your order hasn’t arrived yet—especially since it was intended as a gift. I completely understand how frustrating that must be. Your order has already been handed over to our logistics partner, which means it’s currently in transit. At this stage, we’re still able to cancel the order if you prefer, but please note that a 10% cancellation fee would apply, as outlined in our policy. If you’d prefer to keep the order, we’d love to offer you a 15% discount for the delay, as well as an exclusive 25% discount for any future orders. You can use the code CARA25 at checkout for the next one. Please let us know how you’d like to proceed—we’re here to help either way." I responded to this email stating I would still like a refund as I still haven't received it. I have contacted them on June 18th inquiring about my refund. I then sent them two contact messages through their website and still have not heard back. I would just like my money back, as I feel like I have been scammed.

they posed as my electric company. Told me that the online system wasn't working to pay bills.

Persistent.. up to 6 times times daily using multiple unknown phone numbers including those with 203 code Have registered my phone number on no call state list since 2004!

I purchased solar lights with flower plant pots and never received.

the scammer Mr David Santos approached me and offer the job for Solar Appointment setter. As per our agreement, he will pay me by hourly $3 per hour + commission of $2000 for closed deal and $50 per sit down appointment. During two weeks of working I asked now for my salary and appointment and closed deal but he keeps on promising then one day he sent me a payment which I thought I was paid my hourly, he said, he will pay first my hourly so he send it to remitly. I was checking my account but nothing shows up so I contacted remitly directly if there is a transaction number like this but according to them they cannot find any reference based on the screenshot he provided. I reached out to him and he is not responding until now he keep on promising but nothing happened. I called some of my leads and they already confirmed the sit down appointment and closed deals. the scammer telling me that he knows my family coz I sent him my family picture too. please help me to get paid from the effort I worked into, this Is a form of online scammer. they hiring people but they are not paying. One time I post on their page and someone approached that he is also same like my position. he was also scammed by this company . Until now they are keep on hiring thru upwork. DAVID SANTOS, CHRISTINA E. MANNY OBANDO, AARON BONG GO"BO".

This was an official looking form with the title CALIFORNIA UCC STATEMENT REQUEST FORM. They wanted me to send them $98.00 to confirm the accuracy of a "recently filed statement form in your name. This statement outlines the collateral that will cover the Secured Party if you default." They were trying to scare me into believing that I entered into a contract with "Inception Solar LLC, 553 N Pacific Coast Hwy B274 Redondo Beach, CA 90277" and that my property was apparently the collateral.

We did work for this company and helped them recover their Google Business Profile, they have not paid us for the services rendered. The company has ignored ore calls/emails and texts for 2 plus months.

I thought that I was purchasing a pair of solar outdoor lanterns with flower pots because that what the video showed on TikTok,I was directed to a prakpureshop site. Upon putting in the payment information I received an email stating that my payment was received but I never received any information about delivery so I contacted TikTok and was given the run around so a few days after that I contacted cash app to dispute the charge and was told by them that my claim was declined

Ordered 2 solar devices online and company never delivered them. The Network Technology co. LCD Merchant Jinba Shenzhen (Scotion Co.Ltd.)

I got a phone call from this number today. The person claimed to be selling solar panels, but my phone ID showed this call was from Trinity health. ????

I received numerous phone message to my place of work in one day stating that they were in the area doing work for homes with solar power and witness a bird at the roof our our premises and provided services related to bird netting. Same recorded message over and over, might have gotten 10 messages. I called the number to complain and the person who answered the phone couldn't give me their business ID and the name Trevor that was on the message "was not available." Very sketchy.

A representative of Royalty Renewables came to my door with a solar energy pitch to lower how much I pay for energy. It seemed harmless to show him my PNM bill and let him enter basic information on a form he pulled up on my phone. I had made a remark about not giving him my credit card and he lead me to believe that wouldn’t happen but then he did want me to enter the credit card information - I left him outside and went in to enter the information but first I checked the web for this type of scam but I didn’t check for Royalty Renewables if he even gave that as the company he worked for. Checking now I realize I may have been scammed. Of course banks are closed today and for the holiday tomorrow. I’m going to do more research but if I’m not convinced I’ll be talking to my bank Tuesday.

Called to tell me that my warranty for my solar panel was needed to updated since my precious company went out of business. Nèed to pay $189 to do a inspections on my panels. They would call me with my result's. The gentleman came and took pictures with a drone. They called me later that week to tell me i would need to but two more pieces of equipment to get the warranty up to date. The two new pieces would cost me $936.00 if i bought there maintenace program for an additional $55.00 a month. They sent me invoices saying that the funds are needed to be paid now.

The scammer business is considered a MLM. They have a office located in Fulton, NY. They have withheld my check for the week of May 19th and also withheld my boyfriends money for the week of end of April and had to Cash app him the money 3 weeks later over re-submitting sales for Community Solar relating to the utility bill. They have withheld other forms of payments as well over this on the team we are on. They give for a bonus in the form of a gift card, as a form of a payment like 100 to 50 dollars and send it in your personal email that you then have to "activate" yourself in order to use it. They dont pay you hourly and make you use your personal vehicles without mileage reimbursement or cover under a company insurance, in case of incident, to get to the place you are going to across the state. Making it to where you are responsible for gas, food, maintenance, and higher insurance costs if it is used for personal use and not commercial use. It is alao on a contract and not considered "state" work.

On May 19, 2025, I was searching for cheap car rentals on the web. I found a website that told me to contact 18554700346 to rent a car through Solar Car Rental. I gave the person $1300 to reserve a car and he told me that it would be delivered on May 20th. I have not received the car.

Scammer provided documents to sign and was going to help with solar panels

An individual named Mitch Dokman was going door to door and claimed he could save me money on my electricity bill through a solar credit that he could refund me on my bill and he could prove I was paying this credit by looking at a copy of my bill which he then took a picture of. He then showed me a contract to sign to receive the credit, I told him I need to read the contract first as I didn't understand what they were selling, he used a lot of pressure tactics to try and get me to sign this several page contract right away which I refused. I told him to send me a copy of the contract and I would look it over, he emailed me a link that did not work then texted me this several page contract. I told him I would let him know if I wanted to proceed. I contacted my electricity and explained to ask them what this was about they explained that this was a type of scam where they become your electricity supplier and possibly credit you in the short term but then dramatically increase the price of your bill. I texted this 'salesman' Mitch back told him I wasn't interested and told him to delete the picture of my bill he took as well as any information about me he may have collected and to not sell my information. He did not respond to several messages so I am filling this form out. I don't appreciate people misrepresenting what they are selling and using high pressure sales tactics to try and get a sale.

Kristi ****** with Powerfund one poses as the administrator for solar leases that were originally made with Horizon and Sungevity prior to their going out of business. She claims her company bought horizon. A fraudulent claim. Then she proceeds to have the lease payments made to her shell Company through invoice America. And will extort homeowners when they go to sell their homes and need to transfer the solar to the new buyer. She needs to be locked up in prison.

I applied to a job listing on Indeed with the company name Sideline Solar. I received a message almost immediately, inviting me to a Zoom meeting later in the week. I went to research the company, and there is zero info about them. They have a website which has little identifiable information (phone number, email), and they claim to be BBB accredited. I looked them up and they are not. They post some other semi legitimate looking stuff about how they donate to youth sports, and partner with Little League, NFHS, Pony, etc. It's not the worst fake website I've seen, but it's still obviously fake. I hope this can help people avoid losing any personal information to these scammers. Indeed isn't as bad as Career Builder, as far as number of scammers, but there are a few that get through. Be careful out there!

I was playing a game and this advertisment popped up for 2 solar planter lamps for $55.00 and you got 2 free. The money was taken from my bank debit account on 4-8-25 but I have not received the merchandise. I am not able to find the company online to ask why I haven’t received the lamps or where they are in the process.

It starts with a girl voice telling me things then after you answer she says she will “connect” you a specialist, it then moves to a guy and with the background noise you can tell it’s a call center

Young kids dressed in tattered clothes knock on your door and ask if you’re the homeowner and want to “just talk” while having no photo ID, no photo on a plain badge, no business card, and no written information to show you. When told you’re not interested they get pushy, intimidating, mean, and extremely unprofessional. They are very confrontational and witnesses have seen older folks need help with making them leave. The guy claiming to be the boss asked a young child if he could come in and use the restroom. They ask personal questions about neighbors. Many pictures from home security cameras are posted on Social Media. Many similar stories on Community Social Media pages. Several police reports have been filed. One of them called a supervisor during an altercation and he was just as disrespectful and unprofessional. Not sure if they’re real/fake employees or just scouting for a bad reason.

Trying to present himself as working for a solar power employee. With no name on clothes, no business card, not even mentioned. I let him talk and still no name of business was mentioned. Stating that they're trying to get rid of electrical companies and replace with solar power. I was the only house he went to.

Guy came by to sell solar but insisted psoklahoma would pay for it all due to the rising costs of solar i gave him my social and birthdate unfortunately

I was contacted through messager on LinkedIn about a prospective energy job in Little Rock, AR on January 29, 2025 by Nicholas McDaniel with Renewyx, which appeared to be a legitimate renewable energy recruiter. However, I was a bit skeptical as he did not have a photo posted on his LinkedIn page, and when I asked for more information, "Nick" said that he could explain everything if I set up a quick call. We talked a couple of days later, and it seemed like a good conversation with plausible roles at Scenic Hill Solar. He seemed knowlegable of solar facilities and interested in representing me for an open position, or if that didn't work, there were other companies that he felt he could help me find a new job. He asked for a resume and emailed me a statement to confirm that he could represent me for a position at Scenic Hill. I agreed and sent a resume on January 31. I have not heard from him since. I have tried following up via email on February 4 and LinkedIn messager on February 12 and March 10. He said that the company was expanding quickly and looking to fill several positions. It seemed reasonable from researching the company itself, but it has been silence on his end ever since. My resume of course lists my personal address and phone number.

I applied online via indeed website for a remote job I was texted Monday 3/10/25 at 5:03 AM I had to download Signal App on my iPhone and I replied 3/11/25 the person was named Ellen Milligan and it hired me that day 3/11/25 sent me an email 3/12/25 to fill out W4 and send over my CA Identification card and fill out work agreement that I would start work 3/17/25 previously to email I was informed after I wouls send over my SSN and ID sign work acceptance letter I would be sent a check to buy work materials from a vendor of their choice. The check would be delivered via UPS, so it was but I called aztec solar inc in Sacramento and the receptionist said it was a scam. Now I'm worried about my identity, what can I do about this? Do I send back the checks through UPS? The checks are from a bank in Lakeland Florida and from an account that belongs to a Law Firm. Thank you, ***** ***** ***** ***** ********

Calls multiple times a day. From random numbers

Door to door solar sales scheme. Impersonating a utility (electric) worker. No city mandated solicitation permit or ID. Took name and phone number, wanted to come back to deliver quote and have me sign docs - at which point I figured out what was going on.

I recently had solar panels installed by the Freedom Forever company and financed by the ENFIN corporation. I got a letter from the FL UCC STATEMENT SERVICE stating I was being assessed a $98 service fee. I was never informed such a fee would be required and was told by a Freedom Forever representative not to pay it because it is a scam. If it is legitimate, I'll pay it once I understand what it's for and that it is in fact a requirement.

Received a package from an “Online Seller” with a product called “Triple RodentChaser”. This product was previously investigated by me to be a product that was fraudulently described to be a squirrel chaser that could be “buried outside using a solar panel for power”. In fact it neefs to be powered by house hold 120 volt current. My credit card company recognized the supplier as a previously reported scam and declined the purchase fortunately.

The robo voice said can you hear me

I was approached via email from a company named Conserva in mid-January 2025 about needing their services to reinstate our solar labor warranty because the installer of solar panels, Titan, filed bankruptcy in 2024. Conserva stated in their email that I had 7 days to respond and pay them $189 for them to inspect solar panels and reinstate the labor warranty. I had no reason to doubt them as they phoned me and further explained the situation, it all sounded legitimate. I paid via credit card and Conserva scheduled the inspection. Two young men arrived and spent no more than ten minutes at my home; one was walking on the tile glancing at the panels while the other had put a drone over the roof area to take photos. They informed me that within ten minutes i would be receiving an inspection report. Shortly after the inspection, I received a call on 2/14/25 from a male named Tyler from (928)585-5641 to go over the inspection report. Tyler noted a few things he considered interesting about the solar panels and stated that the report could not be finalized due to dirty solar panels. He said he had a nearby crew in the area that could clean them for $350. I told him no as I had already paid $189 and was certain I could get a better deal. He said they were offering a discount of $100 and could have them cleaned for $250 however I would have to pay another $89 to have the drone re-take the pictures. I declined and after the conversation I realized that I had fallen victim to a scam. The following day I contacted the company who manages and owns the solar contract, SunRun, and another third party. SunRun advised that they do not employ a third party and have no relationship with Conserva. SunRun further stated that our agreement is with them and our warranty is still in effect as per the terms of our contract. A third party also confirmed that Conserva was not needed. Since the last attempt on Friday 2/14/25 of trying to take additional monies from me, they have ceased all communications. I have reported the incident to my credit card company seeking reimbursement. It is interesting to note that the emails from Conserva never included an address, phone number, or a contact name.

Scammer reached out for guitar to be tracked for a commercial. Said they’d pay $400 and sent a contract. When the work was sent in, they claimed that they sent me $4,000 and that they needed my banking information. Total scam.

I ordered a solar LED wind chime on 12/30/24 to be delivered to my mother. After a week, I hadn't received a shipping notification. So on 1/7/25 I sent an email to customer service. A shipping notification was immediately sent with tracking information the next day. On 1/23/25, I received an email saying it was delivered. I spoke to my mother the next day and it was nowhere to be found. The tracking also said that USPS delivered it at 11:33 PM, not a time that the postal service is typically delivering. I emailed them on 1/24/25 about this. They encouraged us to contact the postal service. My mother went to the local post office and they let her know that they could not have delivered it because this tracking number doesn't exist. I emailed them again on 1/27/25 with this update, asking for a refund at this point because it clearly wasn't delivered. They indicated they would look into it and I should hear back in 1-3 days. I didn't, so on 2/4/25 I emailed again asking for the refund again. They responded on 2/8/25 only saying the package has been delivered and to check with my local post office if it hasn't. American Express thankfully refunded my card, but I do not want anyone else to order under this company. Tracking Information: https://www.solarwindledchime.com/apps/17TRACK?nums=SDH0067968294 The charge on my American Express links to this company: https://an-associates.com/ (800) 400-0388

My now deceased father was approached by a Dividend Solar Finance sales person whom offered to install the solar package of which my Father did not authorize (no credit card nor bank information) was provided. Did not receive a bill for 2 years. Even though Dad dif not sign any contract. Dad was 93 years old and was not computer literate. This was an act of elder abuse. Please warn others of this fraudulent transaction scam.

Scammer reached out asking for drums to be recorded on a soundtrack, sent a contract stating that the musician will be paid 400 for work. Once competed scammer states that there was an issue with the check and the account manger issued one for 4000 and that they already contacted the bank and the bank told them that the musician can send back the amount left from the 400 promised. Scammer asked for address name and bank used.

I applied for a job on Indeed and received an email from ( [email protected] ) asking that i reach out to ( [email protected] ) to confirm my application. I struggled to find anything reporting it as fraud, so I sent the requested email. I was hesitant initially (considering there wasn't even an interview...) but the communication at first left me to believe it might be a legit opportunity, until they were sending me a check for "first months salary" and "equipment" before any actual paperwork was signed or work was even done...

can you hear me scam call

A person named Pritam Mahapatra contacted me on Facebook on May 5, 2024. He has a website at https://solarbooking.ai/ and he claims that he helps people close solar deals (he knew I started being a member of the solar company called Powur). He said he could guarantee I make several solar deals per month if I pay him to manage ads and pay for the ads myself. Then, for the first two months, there were no sales whatsoever. He claimed he had a full refund policy if there were no sales, but that wasn't true. I lost about 5500 dollars in total and I'm trying to get a refund from my bank. Pritam refused to give me a refund and he lied many times throughout his scheme. He also charged my account even though I said I did not want to try to use his services for another month. A representative at my bank said that this merchant is definitely suspect. Pritam once said he is located in India, but his company is listed as SOLAR BOOKING ALBUQUERQUE NM.

I was approved for a solar panel loan and this company asked for the deed to my home. The home is in my husband's name only and I told them I would not add my name to the deed. The solar panel loan was only in my name. They applied for 3 different loans on my behalf. They did not have permission to do this. After the second one, I asked them to stop, after the 3rd I cancelled my contract with them. The second lender reached out to me after I cancelled the contract due to this unethical behavior. I was told that someone had doctored my deed and changed my husband's name to mine. I asked for a copy of what the lender was given and indeed someone had replaced his first name with mine and removed the line "a married man" from the deed. Not only did the company use my SSN without my permission (I am also baffled how they got it) to apply for 3 loans but they also doctored a legal document and when questioned about it, they went quiet after repeatedly arguing with me about "why" I cancelled the contract. I have the email where I sent it to them with my husband's name and subsequent emails and texts telling them I will not be put on the deed. Now there is a falsified deed floating around out there, that I have no idea where all they sent it and can't make sure all are destroyed. In addition, someone in the company has my SSN and I hope they have destroyed that and have stopped applying for loans using it.

On December 17th I ordered 6 lights for my children as Christmas gifts. It was advertised to be in Minnesota and on their website they state a 7 day shipping. I paid for shipping with this order. I had not gotten the items when we celebrated Christmas December 27th. The tracking information provided showed it was shipping from China, and there was no other information. I reached out to the company and they told me it was a 14-21 shipping, to which ai replied that their website states 7 days. I received another email on January 5th that states the order is processed and on the way however the tracking information states these are still in China. After sending yet another email it shows me other emails from this company of things I have gotten and never received but they were under different names. This is definitely a scam and I hope no one else loses money like I have.
