Online Purchase - Online Retailer Scam

I ordered a specific dress from Midnight Lueur based on the photos and product description on their website. What I received was completely different — completely different color, wrong fit, different style and cheap quality, not even close to what was advertised. When I showed them clear photo proof, they repeatedly tried to manipulate and gaslight me by offering only partial refunds (first 10%, then 20%, then 30% saying it was their final offer out of goodwill) instead of honoring a full return and refund as promised in their own policy. They falsely claimed my issue ‘does not qualify’ for a refund when it absolutely does. This company is blatantly scamming customers with false advertising, bait-and-switch tactics, and deceptive refund practices. Midnight Blur should not be trusted — they are operating fraudulently.

Online Purchase - Online Retailer Scam - Facebook Ads

I was targeted by a Facebook ad from Centerty for "This is NOT a Sketchbook" by art teacher, Lauren Horn. The video made it look like it was the original item by the author. I ordered two, one that came with a set of drawing pencils. I did not receive the authentic hardcover books that are printed on high quality drawing paper. Instead, I received two fake, unauthorized copies of the original artist’s work. Here’s how I can tell: 1. They are not hardcover as described- they are flimsy and bent on the edges. 2. They are printed on cheap copy paper, not high-quality drawing paper. 3. The printing is low quality- the photographs are too dark to draw from. 4. Some of the letters are missing from the text on the front cover. 5. The original product advertisement and link have been deleted from both Facebook and the Centerty website. I reached out to the company requesting a refund and they offered me $6 of the $58.78 I spent. I countered with a repeated request for a full refund and they replied with an $8 offer. After that, I filed a report with PayPal to get a full refund. I am still waiting to hear back from them.

I purchased a high-value kids toy from this merchant and received a FINAL receipt that states the confirmation number, item price, shipping location, final price and transaction confirmation. Later that week, after two days, the seller requested an ADDITIONAL $210 for shipping of the item and withheld the shipping confirmation unless I agreed to pay that amount. Sharon, [email protected], contacted me via email. They'd stated that they would NOT send the item without receiving the additional payment and would cancel my order if I didn't not pay it despite the transaction being finalized and the money retracted from my bank account. I've reported the business to my bank but I need others to beware of such a scam. This was highly upsetting seeing as this toy is out of stock via its maker's retailer. I believe they were trying to extort money from others because it is a sold-out item.

Do not buy from this company. Although the website looks legit, this company is not and does not follow their own stated policies. It took almost a month to receive my order(website says 2-4 business days). I received tracking that product was coming from China. The picture attached to the tracking showed a bag of potato flour, not the protein powder I ordered. When I received my order, it was from a random person,not a business. I have not opened this product as I am afraid to ingest it as I have no idea what it really is. I have repeatedly reached out to the company since receiving my order and they will not honor their own "30 day money back guarantee,try risk free" policy. Very deceptive advertising!

Online Purchase - QVC imposter

An add for Birkenstock sandals appeared on my Facebook Feed. The company was called QVC Daily. It looked like the same logo as the QVC shopping network except it had the word Daily in it. I thought it was connected to the QVC company. It advertised the sandals I had been looking for online. They were almost $40 cheaper than everywhere else I looked. It also allowed you to use a payment plan through Shop, which is part of the loan company Afirm. You pay a down payment which was 1/4 of the cost of the product and then you pay 1/4 of the cost every 2 weeks until you’ve made 4 equal payments. So when the order was placed I made a $20 down payment. I did receive an order confirmation from QVC Daily. A few days after the order was placed I went to check the status of my order because I didn’t receive anything telling me it was shipped. When I clicked on the link provided that said check order status a screen popped up that said something went wrong. I tried a couple times and the same screen kept popping up. There was another part of the email that had a link for you to click and go to their website and the same, something went wrong screen popped up. I even tried Googling QVC Daily and I couldn’t find the website. It’s like the company never existed. I sent 2 emails to the email address that was in the confirmation and no one ever responsible.

Online Purchase - Iverpure

I ordered a product from this company which I did get. Only to have my credit card charged an automatic membership fee which I did NOT sign up for. I called and only get a machine. Never return my call. Emailed their link to cancel membership only to be denied as invalid order numbers. Emailed helpline only to be told I have to use the cancellation link. I searched their website and couldn’t find anywhere that I would be automatically charged for membership fees or I would have never bought the product!!!!
