Tech Support - Intuit Quickbooks Accounting Services LLC Imposter

I believe this is a scam. I received a phone call this morning saying that they tried to renew our Quickbooks Data Service account but the payment did not process and they needed an updated account or cc for payment. I believe I fell for this last year as a one-time payment, even though we had monthly payments set up for our QB Online account because I never saw the one-time payment show up in any of my QB Payment History nor does this product show up on my QB/Intuit account’s products/subscriptions. So I asked for them what services is this for and was told that it provided all the background software and application updates to ensure our Quickbooks accounts work seamlessly. I then asked to provide me with the account number they were inquiring about and email us an invoice and received the email below. I googled that address and it appears to be a home in a residential neighborhood and I am also suspicious of the way that they spelled check/ "cheque", more commonly used by non-Americans.

Employment - Whole Foods Market Evaluation

I recieved a Priority Mail letter with a check in the amount of $1793.62. The header says Whole Foods Market Evaluation assignment. The text of the letter talks about going to retail stores, buying specifically FootLocker gift cards in the amount of $1300. It then says to keep $450 for yourself, Shady shady shady! I thought this could be legit for a moment because I have done secret shopping in the past, and lord knows I need the money. This is down right dirty! They ask you to text them with all of your Personal information prior to depositing said check. Please people research before you run to the bank with this one. I am so glad I did. I can't afford to lose a penny, yet alone what these monsters are asking people to do.

Online Purchase

I ordered from your site August 4th The website indicated that my package would arrive in 5 to 7 days however my package still isn’t here. On top of that when the email was issued with a supposedly tracking number there was little to no movements. I tried calling the # in the contact section and that Along with the email was a nonworking number here we are 14 days later I check the tracking number saying the package was out for delivery but I’ve checked every carrier and the tracking isn’t valid. Please could you help locate my goods. Now you make this make sense. I received a delivery notification at 2:50pm but when you pull up the Track718 It says that the email was sent at 11:31am You sent email of the Tracking that said it was delivered at 15:46. 15:46 is 3:46 EST and comes after 2:50pm. That's a whole 56 minutes BEFORE the package was supposedly delivered according to GREYLL and TRACK718 notifications. According to what you stated there is NO WAY POSSIBLE this could remotely happen I pull the tracking up again this time it says that it was delivered 12.5 days ago and that’s a lot of BS. Nothing has come to my porch if you look at the emails that I’ve sent you guys and tried to call the contact number that was attached to Facebook. Nothing ever came. I reached out to you guys long before in my Facebook post saying nothing had ever come and you had promised 5 to 7 business days you’re dishonest. I’m calling the Better Business Bureau this morning and I’m going to report you. You are a scam. and $29 might not seem like a lot of money to you. but it was to me because I live on a fixed income, I’m not senile. I do not work. All of my neighbors have clear footage that nobody came on my porch at all. I myself have a RING camera. There was no one in the vicinity of my home and NO WAY THEY COULD STEP FOOT ON MY BOTTOM STEP without being captured and activating my camera. As soon as I got the notification I called my next-door neighbor and he said there’s no packages on your porch Paschal none whatsoever. GREYLL is dishonest, and you know that you haven’t delivered anything because had you delivered something to my home you would’ve photographed it showing that the package was delivered. You can’t even prove that You’ve done this. I've heard of people being SCAMMED so many times but for the first time it’s happening to me. this is dishonest and you know it’s dishonest when I reached out to you the very first day when it said that package was out for delivery you sent me back an email telling me to wait 5 to 7 more days. The very next day you send a bogus EMAIL stating PACKAGE DELIVERED. That’s what you said and that was a lie. I really don’t know how people sleep well at night knowing that they scam people all the time, but I’m going to take this as far as it needs to go because I’m gonna either get my money back or I’m gonna get my package one of the other and neither of the two has happened as of yet.

I placed an order on the Needream.com website on July 28, 2005 after receiving numerous online pop-up ad solicitations from them. Their website provides no contact information or address, only way to contact them is an online support email. Although they advertise ability to return any item and receive full refund, they've debated my reasons for asking for return ability, and to date, not provided me with instructions or address to facilitate my return. The clothing sizes are inconsistent, and the quality or their products is poor. In researching since them ghosting me, appears Needream has very poor reviews, as well as several BBB complaints in the past year. Shame on me for not confirming their satisfaction rates prior to ordering. Do NOT fall for their ads, they are proving to be highly deceptive and dishonest.

I received the money back along with my pay several times. This increased my trust. But then the amount of money required kept getting larger. When I had put in about $6000, I never received my money back or the pay I was promised. This was an elaborate scheme designed to increase my trust in order to extract more money from me. Beware!

Received the product, Had limited instructions. Ordered 2. The product did not work. Customer service contacted me. Advised me to use the Protexor to smash the small glass circles. I tried doing that with both of the Protexor products. They look like key chains. It was supposed to help you in case you got trapped in your vehicle and your car was submerged in water, allowing you to break the glass and cut the seatbelt. This was not the case. I emailed the company back and advised, neither device worked. I wanted my money back. The company advertised a 60-day money-back guarantee. All I was getting was an argumentative representative telling me that they only offered money back for damaged items. I advised that representative that is not what their advertisement said, and that was a misrepresentation of their ad/commercial. I insisted on my refund and that I would report their company to the BBB and other companies.

I bought shoes that looked great in the advertisement. It took weeks for it to be shipped from China. When I received them, they are as poor quality as the temporary shoes you get at the nail salon to wear home, which fall apart right away. I paid $64.95 for shoes that probably cost less than $1 to make. On their website it says 30 day money back guarantee. I sent an email to their customer service contact for returns. They did not reply. I sent another email and they said they could give me 20% off the next purchase. I have gone back and forth with them several times and the best they would do is give me the money back if I paid for the shipping for the shoes to go back to China (obviously not cheap).
