Employment - Employment - Solitude Marketing

I received a text message about a job opportunity 10/2/25. I was to use the site solitude.com to generate orders for merchants to increase visibility.. i was to complete 2 sets of 40/40 a day for a profit. i was unaware about loading my personal money onto the site until the second day but was assured the funds would be returned as soon as i finished the required tasks for the day. along with base salary.. in the event I received a combination order and it put my working account in the negative, I was told to load the funds, and once the sets were completed, the funds would be returned to me, however with just a few tasks of the last set left, I received another combination order which exceeded over $900 in which I did not have, so the company froze my account and kept the $433. I had just loaded for the previous combination order.. their customer service department wouldn’t give me the name and number to a supervisor and the person who reached out to me on text message initially stopped replying.

Sometime in 2024, I got a message from an individual through Facebook. We became friends. He asked me to do some phone work for him, which I did. He said he would send a check which I could deposit into my account. I should deposit it into my account, and withdraw money against it is my pay. The check was for $10,000.00. I did not withdraw any money. Three - four weeks later I called the bank to ask about the check, and was assured the money was in my account. About four weks later I received a letter saying the check was fake, and my account would be closed if I deposited another fake check. The next week, when I called to check on it, and learned the check had gone back to the bank from which it came. The teller hesiated to talk to me. The teller said they suspected money laundering was involved. I was told I was on a second chance. I said I did not understand what a second chance was, and she went on to explain that a second chance meant if I were to deposit another fake check, my account would be closed. In April 2025, another person sent me a check because a person's parents died, a will was set up and he couldn't get the money until terms were met. He had his attorney email me a check. The check contained account numbers, routing number, everything. I was told to sign the back of the check and enter it through the ATM, which I did. The next day, I called to ask about the check, and they said the check I had deposited was fake, and my account had been closed. They said I would receive a letter in the mail with a reason, but I did not. On another note, Walmart entered me into the Publisher's Clearing House sweepstakes. And I received a check to deposit to cover my fees. I took the check into the bank. The letter which came with the check was from Canada. The teller told me it was fake, so I didn't deposit it. But the calls continue, saying they want to deliver the money and the truck.

Online Purchase - Boxhero underwear

Received a order from Boxhero underwear and they were to small. I reached out to customer service for a refund or exchange. I was told I had to pay for delivery fee and send them proof I paid and they would send me a new order in correct size. I also provided them with my waist size in cm. And they also promised me a $25 gift card. Also told me I could keep the order i received and could what I wanted with them. After I paid the delivery fee they stopped all communications. After returning to their web page I noticed they have a 45 day return or exchange policy if your not happy at no cost to the customer. I was told I had to pay for delivery so looks like they took me for another $12. Beginning to think this company is a scam.

Received a letter in mail that looked official from Hyundai regarding extended warranty. Time sensitive call this number . We called 888-926-1464 and talked with someone named Brendon Witt and he first made it sound like he was from Hyundai finance dept and said we paid way too much for our coverage at dealership and that he could help us get a better rate for extended coverage and get our loan adjusted. He was very believable but also very pushy to get credit card number. We fell for it. He charged the card 264.00 and claims we will be getting something in the mail. After the call I looked up the phone number and discovered it was a scam. I have since asked for a replacement card.

I was thinking I was calling Spectrum (1 833 267 6094) on 10/1/25 but apparently misdialed or got auto switched to this line. I wanted to change some Spectrum service and unfortunately answered their questions giving away my debit card information. I did not authorize or agree to any services from this company and made that clear when I was talking to them. I saw the charge on the debit card and have since received in the mail that I will entail a monthly fee that I did not agree to. I tried to email them and it's not a valid email. When I went to Zillow to check the address on the debit card it appears to be a private residence and not a legit business. I have since changed my debit card.

My Perfect Resume charges money for creating and downloading a resume. Last week they attempted to charge me for creating my first resume, but I didn't give them any information or means of payment, nor did I try to get the resume from them after this. Instead, I attempted to cancel my account, but the email they sent in response stated that they could not find the account associated with the account ID. I am sure I did not make a mistake, so I tried to find out if this has happened before. As far as I know, I have not seen another incident like this, but My Perfect Resume has scammed and overcharged a number of users it has gotten the payment information for. Many users state that My Perfect Resume will not cancel their paid subscription and will continue charging them as long as it is left active. Others state that the site overcharged them for their first payment. Unfortunately, while I have a folder documenting emails between My Perfect Resume, myself, and other users who fell victim to their schemes, I have only been able to submit the email that shows their apparent inability to find and cancel my free account. This is my first time making a report to you, so if there is a way to send you the whole folder, I would appreciate that. Thank you for considering.

I am grateful they showed me the letter before calling the number. The letter contained my parent's name and mailing address and a Customer ID#.

This scammer has several fake websites: Walker & Sons, James & Olivia, Le Phillippe UK, Emma & Jack Boston, Koala Couture etc. The items shown are not what you get. I ordered 5 pairs of shoes that were supposed to be real suede with lug soles. The photos are stolen. I recognized the husband and wife team that the business is 'supposed' to be owned by. They have retired their business. Their products were high quality. A friend determined the website was fraudulent and I immediately emailed them to cancel the order. They refused to honor my cancellation even though I cancelled within their stated timeframe. They claimed they had already shipped my items (within minutes of placing the order.) There were a few more email exchanges in which they insisted they couldn't cancel the order. Ultimately I filed a dispute which my bank honored and the fee was reversed. However, they still shipped the items. They are junk! Shoes that look like they could just as well have been made out of paper. I discarded the products.

Worthless Problem-solving Service

A visa-processing agency calling itself “Enhance Visa” advertises online as a legitimate company assisting Filipinos with U.S. visa applications, including tourist and immigrant categories. The agency claims to act as a middleman or point of contact for the U.S. Embassy in Manila and promises full assistance with filing, updates, interview preparation, and post-interview support. After paying the requested processing and facilitation fees, applicants are led to believe their visa cases are being handled and regularly updated through embassy channels. However, once payment is made, communication becomes inconsistent or stops entirely. Promised services such as document submission support, mock interviews, and status updates are never delivered. In many cases, the U.S. Embassy never authorized or communicated with this agency. Some applicants later discover their applications were placed on hold or nearly cancelled because the agency failed to forward payment confirmations or embassy messages. Victims only learn of these issues after contacting the embassy directly. The agency uses professional-looking emails, messages, and social media promotions to appear legitimate and trustworthy, often assuring applicants that delays are part of embassy processing. In reality, they withhold information, ignore embassy notices, and neglect required actions, causing financial loss and emotional distress to victims. This scam preys on Filipino families seeking lawful U.S. immigration by misrepresenting itself as an authorized facilitator and charging significant fees for incomplete or nonexistent services.
