Online Purchase - Online Purchase

I purchased a heated blanket for my wife from an advertisement on Facebook from a company called snugama. After weeks of no actual delivery date and their product not being able to be tracked, I contacted their support page which only has an email address. They told me their American warehouse had some sort of severe weather and that orders were delayed and never gave me an estimated time of delivery. After requesting a refund, they said that there was a large queue of refunds to work through and they would let me know when my refund would be issued. It’s now been over a month and a half and I have no product or refund.

Phishing - Home Sheild USA / Home Warranty

I received "Final Notice" letter stating "It is important to contact our office at 888-508-7913 upon receiving this notice to avoid any unnecessary delays in your coverage before November 28,2025. This notice is to inform you that the property's home warranty, at (my address), may be expiring or may have already expired." The letter goes on with threatening, fear-mongering language about lapses in coverage and liability and revoking eligibility and has an expiration date. It shows a customer ID/property code number HSxxxx-xxxxx. The letter is signed "Andy Perkins, Program Director" and the very bottom of the page, in tiny print: "Not all consumers have previous coverage. Home Shield USA is not affiliated with your current mortgage holder. Florida License G202409" I have received this same letter addressed to 3 different names that I've had, names that I haven't used in 10-20 years, and it includes the name of my mortgage lender, so it's obvious that they are phishing and are somehow pulling information from credit reports. I haven't ever called the number. This is the second time I've reported this scam in the last year.

Employment - McKinsey Recruitment

movie reviewing job scam. Got started and as I was doing my daily work was presented with what they called "combination order" which would earn me more money and supposedly I was very fortunate to have one and to complete the order I had to deposit my own funds to meet the amount in negative just so I could complete the order and then immediately be able to withdraw all funds including profits. Never could withdraw, they kept asking for more money and giving me reasons that I questioned and inquired, and they lied and lied and were very convincing to just trust the process because it was all based on a computer algorithm. Lost $43,000 from March - May 2025. Have filed reports and am getting no-where in any fund recovery. Unfortunate because I was trying to find a job and earn money and I ended up in way worse shape than I was already.

Online Purchase - Online Marketing Agency - Sales Lead Gen

This is a scam company. Stay away. They will steal your money!! I haven’t received a single quality lead as promised. The leads I’ve received were either already claimed by other agents, for sale by owners who didn’t want to work with agents, or unreachable. I’ve made multiple attempts to reach accounts and support to cancel my account and receive a refund yet they haven’t replied to my emails and the phone number for the rep I was assigned to is unreachable. After speaking with a support rep, I was told they would investigate and inform me what is going on. I was told I would hear back by Friday EoD over a month ago and still haven’t heard back. They also won’t allow me to cancel my account and refund me as they have breached contract. I do not believe they are even based in North America. This is unacceptable and is clearly a scam. I don’t think they are even based in the US. stay away or get taken advantage of! At this point I know I’ve lost my $350. Do not make my same mistake. They claim to work with many brokerages yet no agent I know across brokerages has heard of them. Their Instagram and Facebook links don’t work and don’t exist. They are scammers!

Employment - Moosylvania Imposter

An alleged recruiter reached out to me via text, offering remote work (with relatively high daily pay and no interview process). I expressed my interest, and shortly after, someone claiming to be a trainer (who went by the name Megan) reached out to me and explained the company’s operating model. She said the work is aimed at helping partnered merchants increase product exposure and boost sales, and that employees (users of the platform) earn money via commission by promoting the merchant’s products on the platform. The trainer explained that users are expected to use their own funds because the merchant’s products require real transaction data, and that any money deposited via crypto would be credited to the user’s work account, which along with commissions earned during the day would be available for immediate withdrawal after completing missions in a queue (so ostensibly no money lost). Although I earned over $700 after the first two days of using the platform which were deposited into my bank account via a crypto wallet, the biggest red flag came on my fifth day of completing missions on the platform, I received an $8,000 bonus which I was told was a part of the company’s campaign to give back to users, and when completing my last set of “missions” on the platform, I received three “merged products,” which I was told are items with higher commission rates because merchants pay the company additional fees to optimize these items with low product performance. However, merged products bring the work balance into the negative (sometimes by a few hundred, but other times by thousands), and users are expected to make deposits to bring the balance back to positive to complete the missions before withdrawal. And although I have thousands on hold in this work account, I refuse to make another large deposit to access the funds. I looked up the company, and found out these trainers were pretending to work for Moosylvania, an actual marketing agency registered in the state if Missouri. Their official business website is moosylvania.com, but these scammers’ website is an imitation with the web address work.moosylvaniaweb.com

Online Purchase - Online Retailer Scam

Bogus website as a retailer They try to send a non conforming shirt ( nothing like I ordered ) To return they say it will cost me over $50. Now they are threatening me with harming my credit and turning over to collection agency. My credit card company got them to cancel my charge but now they are threatening me to return the shirt for $50 I told them it was non conforming product ( bait and switch) based on what I have now read online and what they do. They know the product is not what the customer is ordering and then they demand return and you have to pay $50 to return their product which is not the style I ordered. There is a pattern of deceptive practices where I found 158 complaints against the company online through Trustpro with these same processes to shake down innocent consumers. The threat of destroying credit ( they even list the credit reporting companies they will make sure are contacted ) and they list their three collection agencies they use. This is a pure scam and they need to be stopped!!!!! Fancy ads on facebooks with misrepresentations as to being a NYC company and these photos of their clothing which is not what they know is being shipped since 158 complaints show they have knowledge of this non compliance shake down.

In November I received an email stating that my reservation has been canceled. In attempt to get refunded on November 18th, I called the company (“CHEAPFLYINGFARES 844-8341144) that was on my credit card statement. During the call I received a number of text messages with codes from a place called Flex Pay. These were relayed back to the person that I was on the phone with at CHEAPFLYINGFARES. In the morning of November 20th, I got a call from the Upgrade Flex Pay loan company about a number of enquiries for travelling loans that I didn’t apply for. On the phone with Upgrade Flex Pay I stated that I didn’t enquire about any loans with them. Later on in the evening, I look at my bank statement and it had two deductions pending with the company name Uplift. I found out later that Uplift was the previous company name for Upgrade. I then called my bank to put a stop on my debit and credit cards. As a note also, during this same day I created an ID theft reports at both identitytheft.gov and to my local police department.

She said she had one available, and asked where I lived and was I looking for a companion. She sent me a pic and said she was microchipped, and up to date on shots and socialized. She said she lived in Hanoverton. She said she lived 10 mintues from the transport service. She said she would use a team of experienced staff to transport her. She asked for my full address to book the registration. She said the puppy would cost $400, inc pet supplies and toys. They kept referring to the puppy as a baby. She kept saying she need to be assured about the type of home the baby was going to. I asked if she had a website, and she said no. Then she texted me to promise I would love and care for her and send her pictures. Last night, I used Zelle to send $400 to [email protected] Cedric Williams. She sent me a pic of the dog in the car. She said when she got there they were putting her in a medium air conditioned crate which would cost $650, with a 90% refund upon delivery, or $1100 to purchase the crate and keep it. Then she sent me a tracking number to put in www.primepetlogistics.site. Her expected delivery date was today. Tashanti Waller works for the transport company and said I could pay her through Apple Pay, Chime or Zelle. Tashanti's number is 773-412-8818. She told me to send her a screenshot of the payment confirmation. This morning asked me to send a pic of the puppy when it arrives, and sent me a pic of her in the car with the dog.

They sent me tracking numbers that were not real and after several more weeks I contacted PayPal. They finally sent one of the items and it was HORRIBLE quality. The seams were coming apart and frayed, the buttons were coming off, and I asked for a refund. They agreed after several more weeks that I would be reimbursed for part of it. They again said the other shirt was shipped and delivered, but the tracking number again was invalid and nothing was ever received by anyone in my development.

The speaker goes on to say that I might recall applying with them for a personal loan or consult, that I didn't qualify back then, but that had changed due to rates coming down. He stated that underwriting has opened up and my file has been reviewed with a loan amount approval of $68,000.

Other - Online Puppy Scam

Send them an inquiry about a Bower puppy for $700. They sent pictures and video of the dog. They said they could ship within 24 hours for an additional $200. Before I sent them any personal information, I went online and checked to see if it was a Scam and checked BBB using their email address. On the BBB site there was the same information they gave me about the same dog "Max". Lucky for me to check because I was ready to Apple Pay them today. Be careful there are a lot of scams out there.
