SCAM ALERT! *LOCAYT* DO NOT SEND MONEY! Unfortunately, I did, and didn't find more info on them until after the fact. If you Google "LOCAYT reviews," you will find warning posts. They get you by showing a property (most likely not actually available) online. Then, if you want to view it, you have to first send them $49 bucks for the "prescreen fee," with a promise that you will be reimbursed it if you choose not to take the property. You get a bot texting you called "Adam." But nobody is available to speak directly to you. It's sad, but I'm trying to alert others. Their website looked legit to me, but it's bogus. The social media links don't even work.

Scam was on Social Media for a reduced price backpack. I attempted to order and entered credit card info. The transaction didn’t seem to go through.

A couple days later I received an email stating that I have a subscription for 8.99 due monthly. This I did not sign up for. I attempted to call the merchant but they were impossible to understand.

Please allow me to return these items for full and complete refund of $95.94. My first issue was my desire to cancel the order. I found it sold by other sellers for substantially less than I paid. That complaint was denied so I waited to receive the item. I thought maybe the windmills would be of higher quality than cheaper items. Unfortunately, The items received are materially different from the seller’s description and pictures of it. Or I received a completely different item.The quality being noncomparable to what was pictured. Please see the attached pictures and note the following: 1. the support they stand on, 2.the ones I received are stamped and and bent to create the one dimensional figures, 3. My drummer doesn’t have drumsticks or feet, 4. There is no dimension to any of the drums, 5. There is nothing dimensional about either of these items. The reason I purchased was because of the handmade quality and all the pieces that went into creating the dimensions. Clearly, the seller is trying to “pull a fast one" and the item they are advertising is not the item they are selling. https://felary.com/band-windmill01?v=5727128 Felary - ??Last Day 57% OFF??Handmade Metal Rock Band Windmill??

I applied for a remote data entry position on Indeed.com; I was contacted back via email from Matthew ***** ******@titleboxingclub.com describing the job and asking for me to respond to follow-up questions cc'g the CEO (who also introduced himself in the message from "Matthew *****") Todd ******* at ****@teamtitleboxingclubs.com. I was told they would send for home equipment prior to starting training and that I would receive instructions from [email protected]. They have received my resume from Indeed as when I applied, the site automatically sends your resume. In addition, a recommendation letter that I had uploaded to Indeed also goes out. I responded to their follow-up questions, but it didn't seem on the level, so I just forgot all about it until I saw recently they were requesting me to respond confirming my interest so they could send a check. I figured it was time to report the incident. The amount of equipment they were going to "purchase" for me by sending me funds was $4000.00. It was mentioned on every correspondence that they would be sending money out for me to cover those expenses. Despite me never sharing financial information nor my address and with only one email response from me, this "CEO" was willing to send a stranger $4000.00 for equipment purchase for a data entry job. I am not sure what Indeed may have sent to these scammers but for sure they have one of my email addresses, my work history, my name, potentially my address and a Google number. Seems like it may be a money laundering scheme with potential to hold the targeted person liable for returning funds back should you, as was stated - for the cost & return of purchased equipment - decide the job is not a good fit after the one week "probationary" period. Unsure how Indeed could vet better, but I am positive this is a scam and people are falling victim.
