Fake Invoice/Supplier Bill - Vehicle Service Contract

I looked the number up that’s on the letter they sent, I then found a listing on here that had almost an identical number and had an identical message on the letter. A big tip off for me was that there was no name for a business everywhere, just “urgent” messages to call them. Hopefully no one else gets scammed like this.

Online Purchase - Nuclear Waste Underground

I ordered a pair of shorts from a website (Nuclear Waste Underground) on April 11, 2025. They didn't have the size I ordered in stock. Even though at the time of purchase it said it was in stock. So the company contacted me through a messaging system on the website. I was impressed by the wonderful customer service at first. However, things went south very quickly. I waited over a month for delivery. Tracking the package everyday to see that it wasn't moving. I had several conversations with customer service about the status of delivery. Eventually, I got the company to cancel the current delivery and resend a new pair of shorts. I have been waiting for them since May 22, 2025. It is now August 1, 2025. I have messaged and emailed the company several times and haven't received a response since May. The phone number they provide on the website is not in service, and the customer service email doesn't seem to work either. They will not refund my money when I have requested for them to do so a few times. The website still says my order is awaiting shipment. Its been that way since the end of May.

I ordered and the item showed it was shipping from China, but the company was in Wyoming, it seemed strange. After almost 2 weeks, what arrived was 2 “circular motors”!! I’m so angry! I checked reviews and the website and the commercials on you tube! I thought you tube vetted their ads, I guess not.

Advance Fee Loan - Lending Union

I get a call from a voice recording every day. I have tried to call back to get my name on a do not call list; when I call, the message is that they've matched a record to my number. Then I get a person on the other end (sometimes), and when I ask to be put on the do not call list I'm immediately disconnected. On the last call, I asked the business "United Lending Union, we are a legitimate lending institution," and it was a gentleman with an American accent who assured me I'd be put on the DNC list. I have not applied for any loans in recent months. The repeated voice messages state: "I left a voicemail and sent a text last week but I haven't heard back so I just wanted to follow up personally. I'm not assigned to your file and it looks like we're almost there. Everything's almost approved and ready to go. We just need to confirm a couple quick things specifically income related.
