Counterfeit Product - Weight Loss Scam

My husband saw an infomercial ad on YouTube for lipomax claiming that it was a natural weight loss product FDA approved. Showed a video with Oprah Winfrey. Says works better than Monjurro injections etc. so he decided to try to save me money and purchased the pills, while cashing out he was pressured to purchase more products. Was told that we would get a call from a personal nurse that will be monitoring my progress. I received several calls. When I finally took the call it was from a very unprofessional sounding man who was quite aggressive, demanded that I turn my tv down, fast talker. Asked me my weight and then TOLD me what weight he wanted to be at . I advised that I don’t want to loose that much weight and I had to ask him if he called to just talk at me or find out what my needs are. Very unprofessional, impatient with questions that I had. Could hear him slapping his thigh as he spoke and was adjutated with my questions. Encouraged me to continue taking Monjuro while using their products. The fast taker tried to confuse me and several times kept telling me about products and kept saying “can I go ahead and charge the card on file” I said NO several times and he kept asking and tried pressuring me. Sounded like a scam. Says he will follow up in 90 days. I received the alleged product about 12 pill containers and 12 liquid bottles in bubble wrap. Everything else was just thrown in with no literature or pamphlets or money back guarantee statements as advertised. Nothing! The name and address on the shipping label said it was from: Mr Comercio De Produtos Natura. No mention of Lypomax. I googled the senders info and they work under 3 different business names and it is apparently a vitamin company in BRAZIL! notified the credit card company and was advised that they tried to take out payment 9 times!! Now Lexi Moore keeps texting and emailing us trying to get us to purchase more products and to click on a link to “claim your vip welcome call before spots fill” This is a scam. They will take all of your money. DO NOT fall for it. I will not be injesting the products delivered out of safety as it could be anything

A woman named Alexandra Mable, HR Manager reached out to me via email about a remote work from home part time data entry position for 20hrs week. She hired me based on my experience at $30hr. Then she kept asking me about my bank information as she wanted to mail me a check for deposit into an "ATM" machine as I would need to purchase the equipment necessary to perform the job. She kept referring to me as "ma", which I found very suspicious. I asked her if she remembered my name and is she aware that she is in an business environment and should not refer to me as "ma". I then advised her that I was no longer interested in this position as I did not find the company trustworthy. Asked that they never contact me again. I went wrong once I responded to the original email as Services was "spelled with ss". Terrible experience for sure.

Tech Support - Tech Support

On 8/6/25, I sought help for a problem printing from my HP printer. A popup from an HP website came up and I used the chatbox to communicate. The chatbox gave me a number to call Mike Anderson (fictitious) 703-940-0191. Mike said he needed access to my computer. He said my computer had been hacked by someone from Africa and someother country and convinced me to act quickly. He never repaired my problem but installed Webroot software to protect my personal information at $999.00. He transferred me to someone else with US Repairs to sign an agreement. The scare tactics and pressure to act ASAP allowed me to put my guard down. Legally, this agreement was done under duress and misrepresentation and would not hold up in court. Because of fear of retaliation, I didn’t contact US Repairs again, but learned of Geeks Squad and took my computer there to remove any software by US Repairs.

Healthcare/Medicaid/Medicare - Bio Genetics

Bio Genetics initiated a call to the patient claiming to get more social security money on the patient’s monthly check by reducing the Medicare premium cost if he added part D and C to his plan. The patient is a veteran and uses the VA for this part of health care and does not need the additional parts of Medicare. Bio Genetics had his Medicare number - the patient never provided that to the company. They had his full name, address and phone number. The patient was transferred to 5 - 6 different people who inquired about other possible medical ailments and treatments. By the end of the call, the patient was ordered to give a sample for DNA testing and have his doctor at the VA run the tests and report back to Bio Genetics the finding. The company had all the doctor information and address/fax/phone numbers. Bio Genetics was very convincing they were a legitimate company to the patient after presenting all the information they had about teh patient. Bio Genetics created a Medicare on-line account for the patient with a login and password. Bio Genetics faxed a request to the VA doctor ordering multiple blood work tests. The fax was received by the VA doctor four times in two weeks. The VA doctor’s office was finally able to reach Bio Genetics and told the company to stop pursuing the patient and the VA for blood work testing. The VA is continuing the fraud/scam investigation. The patient received a package in the US Mail of approximately six bottles of pills that he did not request. The package was refused, unopened and returned to the US Post Office. The patient did not sign any agreement/paperwork or orders. The patient met with his VA doctor and reviewed the scam together. On the same day, Bio Genetics called the patient and the patient told Bio Genetics to not call him again and that he was not interested in their service. They were persistent and would not end the call, the patient hung up on the caller. Several messages have since been left for the patient as Bio Genetics continues to pursue the patient.

Employment - Tier 10 Marketing LLC

I received a message (@ 2-Sep-2025; which I did not save) on WhatsApp on my cell phone inquiring if I would be interested in a part-time job from an individual named Jennifer (+1-646-204-4935). I replied and inquired about details and salary/compensation. She explained that it was based on the amount of work that I performed online for a marketing company (Tier 10, Marketing, LLC) utilizing AI. There were only three sets of tasks in the assignments per day, and I could work as many days as I wanted. There was a base salary, and bonuses based on “VIP” levels. She said that I had to go online and take a training class first. She sent me the link, and I logged in and performed tasks which consisted of simply clicking on fields (match) & (promote) of automobiles. After I completed the training, she sent me the link to the actual work site for my “Work Account”. In order to receive any compensation and bonus I would have to contact their customer service and request a crypto wallet address and deposit $100 into a crypto wallet in my work account through crypto.com. I made the deposit; logged into my work account and completed the tasks and was credited with @ $249 at VIP level1; which I was able to withdraw and deposit into my CashApp account. The following assignment I had to deposit $100 into the wallet in my work account and complete the three sets of tasks and was credited with @ $303 at VIP level1; which I was able to withdraw and deposit into my CashApp account. The next assignment I had to deposit $100 into the wallet in my work account and complete the three sets of tasks, but on the second set of tasks I received a “Lucky Order” which made the balance in my wallet account balance negative -$183, which I need to deposit in order to continue to receive the commission and bonus. After depositing that amount I continued to the third set and received a one-time free special benefit to upgrade to VIP level 2 to enable me to get a higher bonus. Jennifer encouraged me to since it was free; I accepted and completed the tasks and was credited with @ $731 which I was able to withdraw and deposit into my CashApp account. I had to deposit $500 as VIP level 2 into my work account wallet, which I did. On the third set of tasks on the next assignment I got another “Lucky Order” which made the balance in my wallet account negative -$1,658. I deposited that amount, and proceeded to continue with the tasks, and then got another “Lucky Order” which made my wallet account balance negative -$7,545. I had difficulty with depositing that amount, but Jennifer said she would help by contributing $650. I deposited $6895; she deposited $650, and I proceeded to continue with the tasks, and then got another “Lucky Order” which made my wallet account balance negative -$23,565. I told Jennifer I could not afford that amount. She insisted that I would be receiving @ $30K if I deposited the negative balance and completed the remaining task. After I refused to continue; and had already deposited a significant amount of money that I couldn’t apparently recoup, she demanded her $650 back. I told her to sue me and blocked her.
