Online Purchase - Online Retailer Scam

Wigsis.com is a scam website that preys on women buying wigs, many of whom are going through treatment for cancer like myself. It advertises itself as a seller of inexpensive wigs that are customizable. I was sent the website by someone I trust and did not think to check for reviews. After sketchy communication about my order and the ability to cancel it, I looked up reviews. Unfortunately, it looks like many people have been scammed. I never received anything, but others report receiving cheap fake wigs that are nothing like what they advertise.

Employment - Employment - Task Optimization Scam - CarGurus Impostor

They text you saying they are from cargurus and you have to walk through a training with them and they will pay you a commission. However, they want you to deposit your own money. DON'T DO IT! I investigated online and they are a total scam. Text message below: +1 (718) 598-2811: Ok The income consists of two components: a fixed base salary and commissions earned from product promotions. 2 consecutive days: $100 4 consecutive days: $500 15 consecutive days: $1,500 30 consecutive days: $3,000 The maximum base salary for consistent work is $5,100. The more consecutive days you work, the higher your fixed earnings, rewarding consistency and commitment. We also have daily commissions of 1-12% depending on the order submitted. Do you have any questions before we jump into the training part? +1 (718) 598-2811: Ok If you're good to go, I’ll guide you through a quick registration and basic training. You’ll earn about $100 in training commission, which helps you start promoting products for CarGurus and their partners. Okay, I will send you the registration portal.

“Yo-yo scam” I paid my down payment for the vehicle, signed a contract with a finance company and left with the vehicle. The next day the dealership told me to bring the car back to get an automatic unlock key fob and when I arrived they locked me out of the vehicle and told me I couldn’t have the car. I asked for my down payment back & was told to find a co-signer instead. The dealer proceeded to assign the vehicle to said co-signer without my consent, I asked them why would they do that and a salesman responded with “so you won’t have to pay us $6000” and told me he’d switch the car to my name in a few months. I’ve reached out numerous times to get this situation fixed and was ignored with every attempt or got the “I’ll talk to my manager and have him call back” it’s been 5 months of the same thing

Fast Lane Global Freights / Fast Lane Courrier. I paid S&N Trucking, LLC $993. After receiving confirmation of payment I was given a tracking number. I knew it was a scam the moment I went to the Fast lane Global Freights website and entered the tracking number. Multiple miss spellings and when going to the "contact us", I googled the addresses they listed, CA and Washington state, and they were legit business that closed down and Fast Lane Global Freights is using the 2 "Headquarters" as their active locations. Their website, fastlaneglobalfreights.com is a rip off of another website, they are different companies, fastlaneglobalfreight.com. they have added and "s" to the site. It could also be them, without the "s". To top it all off, 2 days later the shipping company contacted me via TEXT and asked for $420 as a fully "Refundable Insurance fee" after delivery.

I received the off letter by email and immediately questioned the validity of the offer. There was no date on the letter, punctuation was off, and then I read that they would send me a check to procure the workstation equipment. This was confirmation that this was a scam and then I received the phone call because I did not return the offer letter signed that further confirmed this was a scam. All of the emails received were extremely long with detailed information which just seemed to be too to be true. Suspicious response included in one of the emails. “The company has chosen to involve you directly in procuring your remote workstation equipment with our accredited vendor. This decision ensures a smoother process and underscores your significance in equipment procurement, highlighting your integral role in our operations. Your name on the purchase receipt will serve as proof of ordering from the vendor for future reference, further emphasizing your importance in this process”. Your remote workstation equipment will include an Apple iMac or Dell XPS Computer or Laptop, an iPhone with a phone number for Closed Users Group (CUG), Noise-canceling headphones, a Desk, Ergonomic chair, a Standing desk to alternate between sitting and standing, a second monitor, Keyboard, Printer, Scanner, Cabinet or filing place and Stationary, including pens and notebooks. The vendor will give you a detailed list, which you can adjust according to your preferences before the vendor delivers the equipment to you.

It is now October 16, 2025, two months later, and still NOTHING. Sent order status inquiry via email on two occasions only to be told that they would check on the shipping status and get back to me. Again, nothing. When I inquire about a refund, I am told that a refund cannot be processed while the order is in transit but I may request one once it is received. Well, that's convenient. I can never get a refund if I never receive the item(?). In any case, my best option at this point is to just dispute the charge with AMEX so they do not get away with getting my money for a product I haven't even received(or may never receive).

I tried to write a negative review, but their site shows only good ones. Mine was ignored. A month later I got email that I was charged for my my subscription $36 and my order was shipped. I want to return unopened order but nobody responses. Even Facebook message button on their site is inactive. I paid via PayPal, they started a claim and stopped future payments. How can I get my money back and make sure I'm not charged again?

Home Improvement - Lowe's Impostor

Tim Czekaj makes initial contact as a floor measurement tech from Lowe’s. He will then try to sell you additional services like painting and mold remediation using the Lowe’s name. Not only did he change the price we agreed to, he’s a terrible painter. He got paint all over the ceiling, floors and trim. He left the room a mess, and didn’t put the wall covers or lights back up. He’s a scammer and a thief and caused a lot of damage to my home. He ruined my basement ceiling, floor, trim and doors and refuses to respond to calls or messages.
