Employment

It started with an email asking if I was interested in more information a logistics job. I responded saying that I was interested and received an email from their HR department shortly after. A person named Frank Brooks started with basic normal job experience questions. After sending my resume, he congratulated me on being accepted for the position and told me to wait for another email from a company called RightSignature to send hiring documents. I filled out the documents and sent them back. I was informed that the first month of employment would be probationary and that I would be a contract employee for the first month. They said during training I would receive anywhere between 5-30 packages per week and somewhere around 50 per week after training. During the month, I received 22 packages. I received a lot of brand new gaming laptops, an expensive canon camera, some kind of diving instrument that was worth hundreds, a cell phone, a case for said cell phone, 3 or 4 echo dots. I still have 2 packages from them while I'm sitting here waiting for this miracle check while realizing this really was a very elaborate scam. There were training videos, an employee portal to work in daily, everything to make it all seem legit. After the first month, they said that my probation period is over and that they are sending me the first check. It should arrive in 5-10 business days. At the same time, I was told I would receive an email from HR about their decision on offerinh a permanent position within 7-10 business days. After 10 business days, I received no check, no information, so I reached out. Payroll said to keep waiting a few days or they can cancel it and send another check. No response from HR. I informed the only person I could reach (payroll) via email that I was having terrible reaching anyone, haven't received payment and that I was beginning to suspect this is a scam. Now I haven't received any response. I have no idea what to do. Was this about stealing my identity? Or is it a parcel mule scam to get items bought with stolen credit cards? I really don't know if I'm involved now because I am the name on the return address. I'm freaking out.

Debt Collections - Speedy Cash USA Impostor

NOTICE OF LEGAL PROCEEDINGS Case Number: HDFR527 Outstanding Amount: $1599.88 Lender: Speedy Cash USA Time Left: 24 hours. Contact: [email protected] Attention Debtor's, We are writing to address a matter of significant concern regarding an unresolved outstanding debt in the amount of $1599.88, associated with your account under Case Number: HDFR527. This communication marks your final opportunity to resolve this matter outside of court. You are required to take immediate action within the next five hours upon receipt of this notice. Failure to do so will result in serious consequences. Our attention has been drawn to the fact that the United Legal Investigation Bureau has levied four serious allegations against you, each carrying substantial legal implications: 1. Violation of Federal Banking Regulation 2. Collateral Check Fraud 3. Theft by Deception 4. Electronic Fund Transfer To prevent further legal action, we present the following payment options requiring your immediate attention: 1.A one-time settlement of $799.95, leading to a complete resolution of the debt within the next 24 hours. 2.Weekly or biweekly payments of $266.64 until the debt of $1599.88 is fully settled, commencing today within the next five hours. We urge you to comprehend the gravity of this situation and take swift action to address it. Failure to do so within the specified time frame will lead to the following severe consequences: 1. **Late Payment Fee: ** A fixed fee added to your account if the installation is not paid by the due date. 2. **Interest Penalties: ** Increased interest in the outstanding balance for delayed payments, which can lead to a higher total repayment amount. 3. **Negative Credit Reporting: ** Failure to make timely payments may be reported to credit bureaus, potentially harming your credit score. If you fail to pay a payday loan, the lender may sue you. If they win in court, they can garnish their wages. They may also sell your account to a debt collector, who will pursue you aggressively and may take you to court. You can be sued over an unpaid payday loan until the statute of limitations expires. This varies from state to state, but it’s often six years. Most lenders do not report to the credit bureaus, so missed payments will not hurt your credit score. If your debt is sold to a collection agency, they will report it and it will be noted on your credit report. Your credit will go down. Our investigations have indicated potential fraud, including unauthorized electronic funds transfers, linked to your IP address. Time is of the essence, and you have four hours to comply with this final opportunity for an out-of-court settlement. Please respond immediately to this matter by reaching out to us at [email protected], where we can discuss suitable payment arrangements. We strongly emphasize underestimating the urgency and potential consequences of this situation. Failing to act promptly will lead to the swift commencement of severe legal actions against you. Contact us via email at: [email protected] your earliest convenience to discuss how we can assist you in resolving this debt.

This is a very 'official' looking government website including a government logo. At checkout it say that the payment will be charged from a non-government payment processing partner.

If you use the government website, the correct form is generated in 0.5 seconds. The same information is entered on this website and it takes "12-24 hours" to generate the same form.

This does not hold the company accountable for false advertising. Also, they pretend to be a U.S. company, but the product is to be shipped back to China.

Just left a very long GM. Hey, this is Donovan Monroe. I called your phone twice but for some reason your phone is going straight to voicemail. The reason why I'm calling is because I have some documents that are being tied directly to your social, an all-state issued ID that you may possess. It also says on here that an asset search is also being conducted too. So if you receive this message and you have not received a red folder or green folder of documents in the mail. You need to contact me in my office as soon as possible. Now, I will have a notary in the office later today to sign and stamp all paperwork. Now, I do understand that this message is somewhat vague, but at the same time, I don't feel comfortable leaving results of a private matter on a voicemail box that can be overheard by a 3rd party or another person. So once again, this is Donovan. I'm leaving the office about 90 minutes earlier than usual today for my daughter's soccer tournament, which actually begins this later this afternoon. So again, when you receive this message, just reach out to me and I'm gonna explain everything to you in a simple way for you to understand and obviously make the best decision. Take care.

It's all over Facebook and YouTube. There's a name Michael Carter associated with my email as a health food person and sends out health related emails, after the Dr, Gupta video.

If you or someone you know might be interested, please don’t hesitate to reach out to me at [email protected] Warm regards, Susie. when I responded: Thanks for your response, the Yamaha Baby Grand Piano GC1 model used to be owned and played by my husband who passed away last year, the dimension is "151cm by 146cm". It was last tuned sometime last year before he passed. She's about 2 years old and in impeccable condition. I'm moving my properties to another place and I don't think my husband will be happy if I sell this piano, at the same time, I am settling for a home with less space, so I'm hoping to give it out to someone who is a passionate lover of the instrument. I wasn't going to leave it alone in an empty house. The Piano is currently in storage with the movers I employed to move my properties from my house. The movers can deliver anywhere. However, the beneficiary has to pay moving costs. In the attachment are the pictures of the Piano, I look forward to your reply if you are interested, if not I can contact someone else. Regards, Susie. You need to contact the movers and make an arrangement as regards the moving process. ([email protected]) just let them know that Mrs. Susie Brown referred you with the Reference Code: SEIL132ZA. Make sure you send an email for a faster response. Most importantly, provide your delivery address for a delivery quote. Once you are in touch with the movers kindly also let me know so that I can sign off the piano.

Employment - Employment Solicitation - Resume Formatting Scam

ANTHONY, Thank you again for sharing your resume. I had a chance to review your background and resume. You bring a wealth of valuable experience to this role. Your career reflects the kind of executive leadership that consistently drives transformation and high-growth outcomes. The company is actively prioritizing executive leaders like you, seasoned, forward-thinking, and equipped to lead large-scale transformation. When I submitted your resume to the company, the system couldn’t properly process the resume format for the next interview round, not due to your experience, but because the formatting isn’t fully ATS-compliant. The resume layout structure didn’t scan cleanly (this happens often with multi-column or graphic-heavy designs).

Online Purchase - Online Purchase - Recurring Subscription Scam

I decided to take one of MentaLabs' quizzes for fun. There was no indication that it would require payment to view the results, but it only asked for $2 so I was willing to pay that. Three days later I checked my bank account to find a charge for an additional $39.95 as a different charge type. The original purchase was processed as a VISA DDA PUR AP, but the $39.95 was processed as an ATM debit. There was no information about a subscription at the time of purchase, and no indication of the resulting cost of a subscription anywhere on their website. When reaching out to support, I was met with a generic message stating that the subscription information was stated in the original welcome email which, as you will see in the attached image, is entirely false.

On 3/10/26, I received a phone call from an individual claiming to be Andover Police Officer Nathan Tyler (Badge ID #04129). He stated that I had a case (ID #26/139700) in California. Nathan then connected me to Michael Gavin (Badge ID #0183), who claimed to work for the Treasury Department. He told me that I was involved in a case related to money laundering and drug trafficking in California and that I needed to cooperate to resolve it. He alleged that I had transferred $2.3 million to a Middle Eastern country. He then directed me to work with FTC Officer Nick May and said that if I had not committed any crime, I would be able to prove my innocence. They instructed me to transfer money so they could “secure” my Social Security number, which they claimed had been compromised. They explained that all funds needed to be moved into a “mass law account,” after which the Treasury Department would return the money via bond. They also stated that I would receive a Wells Fargo debit card for the transferred funds. Out of fear that my family and I would face legal consequences, I followed the instructions given by Nick May. I sent funds via wire transfer and cash through UPS to the locations they provided. As a result of this scam, I have lost $336,290.81.

That cost me $125.00. I sent them an email and told them but never heard back. I then got an email saying my package was on the way. I tried the patches and they were a joke. So I still hadn't received anything else but they charged my account $75.00 again so I sent another message telling them they had charged me twice for the product and I didn't want anything else and i wanted a refund for the $75.00 they gave me $34.00 back. But in the mean time I received another month of patches. So here i go emailing them back again. I was looking at my bank statement and they had took $107.95 out of my checking account three different times plus another $75.00. I also got messages saying my package had shipped. I emailed them again and told them the problem and I received an email saying they where sorry for the inconvenience and if i needed anything let them know.

This company is totally illegitimate.

I was called about a job offer as a package handler. I am supposed to receive the package at my home and then open and inspect it, and then ship it where it needs to be shipped. I am supposed to go to the appropriate shipping company (UPS, FedEx,etc.) to drop off the package. I was called by this company but I don't remember applying for this company. The lady i talked to name was Alex Johnson. She had a very thick Indian, Pakistani, or Arab accent. She explained that I needed to take a selfie next to my ID card after I send her the front and back images of the ID card. Then she explained that the only way to get paid is through direct deposit. She also said that I would not get paid for 30 days, and then every two weeks afterward. Also, i would have to fill out a 1099 form to do my own taxes. The pay sounded good at $4200 per month, but what i found sketchy is that she wanted to stay on the phone with me to fill out the paperwork, which was a contract. I decided to do a little investigating and I came upon this site. This company has only been in business for less than six months, which really seems fishy. And the address doesn't help the credibility, either.

Travel/Vacation/Timeshare - Travel/Vacation/Timeshare

Dear KLM Customer Relations, I am writing to express my extreme frustration and disappointment regarding my recent experience trying to resolve a simple issue with my reservation. I originally contacted KLM last night around 9:30 PM to have “Mrs.” removed from my name on the booking — a title that was added incorrectly and not by me. I remained on the phone until after 11:00 PM trying to reach someone. When I finally connected with an agent, he stated the issue had been corrected, but the call disconnected immediately afterward and no one called me back. This morning, I attempted to contact customer service again. I first called 800-618-0104, only to hear that customer service did not open until 10:00 AM, which is honestly shocking for an international airline. In addition, your mobile website makes it incredibly difficult to find a legitimate customer service number. Most major airlines offer clear chat and call options directly through their apps and websites. Instead, I had to search Google extensively, only to find warnings advising customers not to trust Google search results because of scams. That alone should be a major concern for KLM. I then called 855-803-3037 and was told they could only assist with flight changes and new reservations and could not help me. After hanging up, I received a callback from 646-914-9817 from someone claiming to represent KLM. I spent approximately 25 minutes on the phone with him while at work, increasingly upset and in tears, as he informed me that my tickets were supposedly “standby,” that my seats were not actually confirmed, and that I would need to pay over $6,000 additional dollars to reserve seats for my family — despite already paying premium pricing for these tickets. He further stated that we would simply have to arrive at the airport and hope seats were assigned at check-in. For a family vacation planned and saved for over a long period of time — a true trip of a lifetime — this was beyond distressing. Thankfully, I immediately contacted Delta Air Lines through their chat support. Within minutes, they resolved the issue, confirmed my seats, and fixed everything professionally and efficiently. This experience reinforced exactly why I am a Platinum Medallion member with Delta: trust, accessibility, and customer support. KLM may partner with one of the best airlines in the industry, but your customer experience, website accessibility, communication, and fraud prevention processes urgently need improvement. This situation created unnecessary stress and genuine health impacts due to the anxiety it caused. Customers should never be left confused, vulnerable to possible scams, or emotionally distressed simply trying to verify and manage tickets they already purchased. I sincerely hope KLM takes this feedback seriously and works toward improving the customer experience for future travelers. Sincerely,

Counterfeit Product - The Hills Nashville

Business 1: The Hills Nashville Website: thehillsnashville.com Registered Address: 8 The Green, Suite A, Dover, Delaware 19901 Actual Location: Unknown — ships from China Business 2: Jennifer & John Charleston Website: jenniferjohn-charleston.com Registered Address: 8 The Green, Suite A, Dover, Delaware 19901 Actual Operator: "Loop" — China-based Contact on File: [email protected] / +1 302 760 9909 NATURE OF COMPLAINT I am filing this complaint against two online retailers — The Hills Nashville and Jennifer & John Charleston — that I independently discovered through cross-referencing and that share identical deceptive business practices. Both websites present themselves as American boutiques while actually operating as China-based dropshipping operations. I discovered the connection between these two businesses while researching one after becoming suspicious of the other. Both share the same registered agent address in Dover, Delaware, use the same high-pressure marketing tactics, and employ the same fraudulent return policy structure. SPECIFIC DECEPTIVE PRACTICES 1. False Domestic Business Identity • The Hills Nashville markets itself as a 'mother and daughter boutique' in Nashville, Tennessee, creating the impression of a local American small business. • Jennifer & John Charleston uses the 'Charleston' name to imply a US-based operation. • Both are registered in Delaware using a registered agent address (8 The Green, Suite A) — not a real storefront. Neither has a verifiable physical retail location in the United States. • Jennifer & John Charleston's invoices identify the actual operator as 'Loop,' a China-based entity, which is not disclosed anywhere on the website before purchase. 2. False Advertising of Free Returns • Both websites explicitly advertise free returns in their marketing and store policies. • In practice, customers who attempt returns are informed that: (a) returns must be shipped to an address in China, not the Delaware address; (b) return shipping costs are the customer's responsibility and typically exceed the value of the items; and (c) refunds are limited to approximately 10% of the purchase price. • This policy is concealed before purchase and only revealed after a return is initiated, which constitutes deceptive advertising under FTC guidelines. 3. Products Not as Described • Multiple verified customer reviews on Trustpilot and in BBB Scam Tracker reports confirm that items received do not match website photos or product descriptions. • Materials are frequently described as cheap or synthetic when listed as higher quality. Sizing is inconsistent with standard US sizing. • Shipping times are significantly longer than advertised, consistent with overseas fulfillment. 4. Fabricated Review Profiles • Both websites have artificially inflated ratings on Trustpilot generated through bulk fake reviews, drowning out legitimate negative feedback. • This practice manipulates consumer trust metrics and constitutes fraudulent misrepresentation. 5. High-Pressure Tactics • Both sites employ 'almost sold out' warnings and deep discounts (up to 70-80%) that appear permanent, designed to pressure quick purchases before customers can research the company. REQUESTED ACTION • Open formal complaint files for both businesses under their respective domains. • Investigate the shared business registration address and the 'Loop' operator connection for Jennifer & John Charleston. • Issue a public alert warning consumers about this pattern of boutique-branded, China-sourced dropshipping operations using US city names to imply local identity. • Coordinate with the FTC regarding the deceptive free-returns advertising, which is a clear violation of consumer protection regulations.

Government Grant - Government Grant Scam - Upfront Processing Fees

The American Heart Investment Grant promises grant funds for multiple sectors and industries. In their FAQ, they do mention processing fees. However, legitimate Grant Service providers do not ask for money upfront. Although they were transparent about the fees, they collect personally identifiable information and details about the candidate. I provided them with a grant proposal and business plan for the small business resilient fund grant. I was pre-approved for $105k. Real grants usually take several months to get approval. This approval only took 7 days. Once I was approved, I was asked to sign the documents. But when I told them the documents were not available in the portal, that's when I was told that I needed to pay the fees first. Why would I pay any fees prior to signing an agreement? I could not even see what the agreement was for prior to paying. Everything in their portal seems legitimate. They assign you a personal grant manager, process your application, and send you follow up emails. Again, everything seemed right until they asked for money upfront. Classic Scam. Then, the payment options were through Cashapp, Chime, Bank Wire, and Paypal. I initially selected Paypal as I figured it would be more secure. But, they wanted me to use the "family and friends" option instead of business option and all of the different payment methods had a different name for the end-user. None of the payment information was listed in the name of the organization. Again, classic scam. I shouldn't send money to "Gracie Garcia" for Chime, "Trent" for Cashapp, and someone completely different for Paypal. This was absolutely ridiculous. No sane business owner would fall for this trap. Do not pay for any services upfront ever for grants.

We triggered production of said items but agreed to the refund once paid monies were deposited into our bank account.

I paid $41,164 through an online real estate auction on hibid.com after being led to believe I was purchasing actual land ownership in Idaho. The property was repeatedly described throughout the auction and listing process as “real property,” “20 acres,” and land ownership, with language and presentation that strongly conveyed that I was purchasing the land itself. Only after payment was completed did I receive communication claiming that what I actually purchased was “mineral rights only”, not ownership of the land itself. At no point during the auction process was it made clear to me that this was only a mineral rights transaction. The entire presentation, advertising, and property description appeared designed to make the buyer believe they were purchasing real land ownership. Similar to others affected by this, I have preserved extensive evidence, including: Screenshots of the auction listing and website descriptions, Copies of emails and communications, Payment records, Documentation showing how the property was marketed, Evidence regarding the terminology used during the sale, and Records relating to the warranty deed I paid additional money to receive. The public deserves to know that hibid.com is allowing this to occur, and that Terra Firma is deceptive in its representation of what is being sold. This has caused significant financial harm to my family, and I am currently preparing formal complaints and legal action regarding the matter and would like to join with others affected as well. I also can provide all supporting evidence immediately upon request. Here’s the website for the auction of the property I was made to believe I was purchasing: https://hibid.com/lot/288662558/idaho-real-property--20-acres--kellogg-gold-silver I encourage all people affected to come forward so that we can stop this company and avoid further harm.

Travel/Vacation/Timeshare - Travel/Vacation

BEWARE THIS OUTFIT. My experience, an utter disaster. On a Sunday, I was booking a flight to Portland on Trivago; suddenly, "CHEAPEST" appeared, indicating there were 7 seats available at this great rate. I booked it immediately and then received an email from Farehutz telling me my flight was confirmed and being processed. Then the nightmare began. I was notified that only my return flight was guaranteed and that I had to call them, which I did. I was informed that they could get me another outgoing flight and, guess what, it was at nearly double the cost of the flight I had booked with them. I told them the rep to forget it, that I'd just book elsewhere, and he suddenly found a cheaper flight. As I look back, it was the old bait-and-switch and the whole low price and 7 seats still available the bait. It gets worse. I bought the insurance that was recommended. On Tuesday, I was admitted to the hospital, on Wednesday I was operated on, and on Thursday I notified the Farehutz rep there was no way I could make the Friday departure and explained my situation, even providing documentation from the hospital I was admitted at. The rep informed me that the insurance I bought was only good 24 hours after booking, but he'd pursue a voucher for me. You got it, he later contacted me that he couldn't provide a voucher, so I was out the entire cost of the ticket. Because I notified Farehutz more than 24 hours before my flight was to leave that I could not make the flight, I don't doubt they sold the seat to someone else. This company has no soul.

I was a long time coming like a month. When the thermostats arrived, they were not what I ordered, and they were substituted with line voltage heating only thermostats that are sold for like $25.00. They are completely worthless to me as I needed 24 volt heating and air conditioning thermostats.

I purchased the golf shoes from the website of Acewaysgolf.com believing that I ordered Size 11 double wide width. I received the shoes in medium width with 2 different inserts (1 regular width and 1 wide width) All communication has been via email as there isn’t a phone number on any of their advertising or email confirmation of the order. (I have provided my personal phone number on the form as that is what I have used for them to contact me. They do not have their phone number on any of their information) I am attempting to return the shoes. Although they have replied via email they do not acknowledge my request for a refund or provide a label (to print?) I understand that I should pay for return shipping. The size that I desire is not available. The company will not confirm my request to return the item. I assume that they want to provide a label and request shipping which I pay for. Order # ************** As they don’t make it possible for me to make a return within 30 days I lose the money for my purchase with the item that I can’t use.

On May 12, 2026, I was misled by Easy Tech Prizes into believing I was purchasing a dental kit for $9.95 on my Capital One card ending in 3249. After the charge was processed, the company informed me it was actually a non-refundable entry fee for a raffle — not an actual product purchase. This is deceptive and misleading. I called Easy Tech Prizes three times seeking resolution: 1. Spoke with representative Driv — recurring subscription was cancelled (confirmation #545675), but they refused to refund the $9.95, claiming it was non-refundable. A manager callback was promised within 2-3 hours. 2. Spoke with representative James (call reference #904078) — no manager was available. Was told to call back in 15 minutes. 3. Called back — the phone number became unreachable. I also sent two emails to [email protected] requesting a refund. No response was received. The promised manager callback never occurred. BBB Scam Tracker already has reports associated with this company's phone number.

Background of the Issue** In **May 2025**, I encountered an advertisement for Woofz, a dog training service. I began the sign-up process for their free trial but became suspicious upon discovering that the company is based in **Belarus*. I immediately discontinued the process, assuming I had not provided sufficient information for any charges to be initiated. However, it appears that I unknowingly entered enough details to trigger recurring payments. At the same time, I signed up for **pet insurance through Costco (FIGO)**, which has a similar charge amount. Due to this coincidence, I mistakenly assumed the recurring charges from **Woofz** were related to my pet insurance. This misunderstanding persisted for months, during which I was charged **$48.95 monthly** by Woofz. In **March 2026**, I noticed an additional charge of **$48.95 from Woofz UK**, which prompted me to investigate further. Upon contacting Bank of America, I confirmed that these charges were **not** from my pet insurance but from **Woofz**, a service I never used or intended to subscribe to. **Evidence of Fraudulent Activity** Upon researching Woofz, I discovered **numerous complaints** from other victims on platforms like the **Better Business Bureau (BBB)**. Many users report being scammed by Woofz, which employs **deceptive practices**, such as: - Making it **easy to sign up** for their free trial but **extremely difficult to cancel**. - Charging users **without their knowledge or consent**, often under different entities (e.g., Woofz UK). - Exploiting users by processing **recurring fees** for a service they never used.

Indicates my home warranty is about to expire. I own no home, never had a home warranty.

Now I am receiving home warranty “sensitive” letters, and only with a phone number to call. Phone number cannot be identified. The letter attempts to look official: “Official Business” “Immediate Response Required” and “Final Notice” and “lapse of coverage”. The letter does not include a return address, does not identify the company name, and therefore cannot opt out. Letter indicates they have been trying to call me. Receiving a lot of unknown calls from random locations and believe is spoofed. I am on a “paid” marketing “opt out” list but receiving unwanted mail and from an unknown entity and related to a home that I do not own. This has been happening for approximately 5 years but unable to cease the harassment through valid and several entities that was suggested.

The scammers identified as a fictitious lending company offering personal loans of 25,000-30,000 with an interest rate of just over 5%. They will hang up on you if you ask where their business is located. If you pick up the phone, it’s an automated message stating this: Kimberly Cave calling. I was trying to give you some updates. Hi, this is Kimberly. I was trying to give you some updates regarding your personal loan inquiry. I reviewed your file after seeing that you previously looked into a personal loan with other lenders. And based on what I'm seeing, it looks like I may be able to help you secure a better approval with improved terms. As long as we can show steady income, there may still be options available, even if your credit profile is not as strong as it was before. In some cases, funds can be available within the next couple of business days. On a $35,000 loan at 5.75%, payments will be 599 per month, and I may also be able to structure biweekly payments to make things more manageable. Call me at 855-994-2073. Again, 855-994-2073. They’re posing as multiple people and using different numbers, but the message is the same. Another one called stating this: Samantha Fisher calling. I was trying to give you some updates. Hi, this is Samantha Fisher calling. It seems like you previously looked into a personal loan with other lenders, and it looks like I'll be able to help you secure a better approval with improved terms than what was originally offered. As long as we can show steady income, there may still be options available, even if your credit score is not as high as before. In some cases, funds can be available within the next couple of business days once the remaining items are verified. On a $30,000 loan and around 5.95%, payments will be around 555 per month, and I may also be able to structure biweekly payments. Call me at 866-386-5519. Again, that number is 866-386-551 In addition the numbers they’ve called from so far are (304) 836-6400 (813) 912-6289 (910) 869-9266 (617) 857-3477 They also don’t honor consumer laws when you say you’re not interested and don’t call me anymore. It infringes on your rights and becomes harassment. Something must be done about this.

Clicked an add on Facebook. Filled out a short form to see about qualification. Next day was getting text messages from “Paige” she convinced me their website had the best prices on semaglutide and to order from them and provided the link. I then proceeded with a 3 month supply order totaling 699 plus tax. It processed. Their website said it did not. I reached out multiple times in multiple ways over the last 24 hours all each giving me a short run around reply telling me to contact support or login to patient portal etc. I attempted to sign up for patient portal last night 15 times. Each time it said it would send an email with link to creat password for account. It never sent a link. Tried over 10 times again today when Paige directed me that’s what I needed to do to track my order since I did not get a confirmation email or any communication after the sale besides the amount deducted from my account. I then contacted their support through email. The other person listed emailed me back calling me by name to my email address and replied saying I needed to provide my name and email address because they were unable to locate any account. I immediately replied with my name stated and my email in the body so as not to confuse anyone and have now gotten no responses from anyone on anything. I have filed a dispute with my bank but they have to reach out to merchant and I have been researching now and noticed others saying the same thing and I think they need to be reported so I am taking the time to do so because I’m tired of working to take care of other people for a living and people just ripping everyone off!

This was over and over until he had all of the savings that Larry had. Then he would start calling when he knew Larry would be receiving more money. Many times promising he would be getting car and money usually the same day or the next day but he never showed up. Always had some excuse. Larry has given him somewhere around $18,000. Now he wants Larry to take out a loan for $5000. He has Larry’s SSN and said he was going to get the loan for him. Finally Larry is starting to believe that this is a scam.

On April 20th I was emailed by a general casting inquiry. As an actor, and after not sensing anything out of the ordinary, I responded I would like more information. On May 1st, they sent a breakdown of the project with an NDA to sign, should I choose to audition (attached). According to "Claire Holloway, CSA" this was a very locked down project produced by DaCosta Pictures with Nia DaCosta herself directing. Everything about these emails were spot on to what I have done for year with my representation or self-submit projects. So, I did the work and sent in my self tape(s). Yesterday, 5//11 I received a final callback notice. One of 4 people selected to chemistry read with an A-List actor in person. Now, because I am local to LA and know that Burbank has tons of studios, I again thought nothing super odd and was genuinely excited. Anyways, I responded I would attend and would like to know which role they wanted me back for...then they asked if I needed travel accommodations, for the second time. I again told them I'm local and I didn't and asked again to tell be what role they wanted me to read for again ...crickets.... I didn't think much of it until my co-worker, who I shared the news with yesterday (in violation of my very fake NDA apparently) said she loved Nia's films but could find anything about this one called Into The Absence. Odd... So, we started digging only to find numerous BBB reports that others who would need to travel had been scammed out of $300 dollars. I'm very fortunate to not be out any money (I never pay to play anyways) but I am certainly humbled and I don't love that I signed a fake NDA or made 3 pretty dang good self-tapes for a stranger. I have since removed the audition tapes from my YouTube, changed passwords, and warned them they have been reported to my SAG-AFTRA rep. I just really want other actors, and honestly Nia DaCosta's real team to be aware of this.

Travel/Vacation/Timeshare - World Platinum Travel/Vacation Services International

In June 2022 while vacationing in Aruba through our Bluegreen timeshare, we were approached on the street with “scratch-off” cards stating there would be a possible $1000 cash winner. They acted excited and jumped up and down stating we won the money and had to claim at the office. When we got there they had several couples that were there for the same reason. While there at this place called “World Platinum Travel” they had a couple of slick talking sales people asking if we were wanting to get out of or sell our timeshare with Bluegreen. We said we would like to but that we couldn’t afford to pay a lawyer or timeshare exit company, and we did not like the fact that the maintenance fees are going up 15% annually. They told us that they specialize in this and that they had a much better option, and that if we purchased into their “travel club” (did not say timeshare or contract) we would no longer have any maintenance fees, but just an annual fee of $149/year. Since 2022 we have paid the annual fee but did not use as they have never sold or gotten rid of our Timeshare of 20,000 points with Bluegreen through a company called “Vacation Services International”. I check this site often and to date our timeshare has not even gotten a hit. We were simply scammed and I’ve seen a hundred different reviews stating the same thing from Aruba and the exact same scam. I tried to cancel and get my $5600 back as I wrote a hand written letter to World Platinum travel within the next 24 hours, but they asked me to come back in, and stupid us, we let them talk us into keeping it, and sat us down with a “lawyer” who said he handles these cases all the time and sells timeshares pretty quickly, so we stayed. Totally scammed and out of $5600 cash from our bank account, and now they called to tell me that if I don’t pay the $249 annual fee that we are in breach of contract. My wife and I do not remember signing any timeshare contract as we were already in a timeshare with Bluegreen. I’m sure you cannot do anything about this, but I want to report this scam that is and probably thousands of other couples were scammed by. Thank you!

My husband’s Delta flight was canceled after his luggage had already been checked in. He was subsequently rebooked on a flight with American Airlines. At that time, we were attempting to reach Delta to locate and retrieve his checked luggage. My call to Delta was disconnected, and I immediately received a callback from an individual claiming to be associated with Delta. During that call, I was advised that I would need to book a “dummy ticket” in order to have the luggage returned home, and that the charge would later be credited back. When this charge appeared on my credit card, it was not billed by Delta, but instead by TravelsBack, a company with no verifiable presence. I immediately contacted Citi upon noticing this discrepancy. I disputed the charge with Citi but this was denied as the merchant sited "services rendered." I attempted to reach TravelsBack via multiple phone numbers, email, and social media without success.

This business advertises full refunds if the product is damaged. After receiving damaged goods and sending pictures as evidence (the dress was in shambles when I received it), they said they'd "look into it", then didn't respond to me for 2 weeks. I almost forgot about (that's likely their MO). Reached out to them to which they instantly replied and only offered me 10% refund. After I confronted them about their policy, they then said I would have to send it back to them in China and am responsible for shipping which is almost as much as the dress.

I needed medical insurance since my insurance had lapsed earlier in the year. On February 16th, 2026, I searched the online websites and found American Collective Insurance as one company offering customers medical insurance at reasonable rates. I filled up the online form and an agent called back the same day. She said her name was Kelly. She also said she had a bad cold and for this reason she could not speak very clearly over the phone. I had to ask her to repeat herself a couple of times. She gave me full details about the insurance policy including upfront registration details, application fee and monthly payment required. She said I would receive the insurance card in the mail in 14 business days. She also said I had to wait 3 months before I could use the insurance card. The card had an Rx benefit attached, and the name of the Rx company was Revive. I asked her if I could stay with my current PCP if I used this insurance. She said yes. I asked her to check to see if my PCP was on the list of doctors on file for this insurance. She said yes, he was in Hialeah. I told her it was the wrong location and asked her to check in Tampa. She then said yes, she found his name on the Tampa list of physicians. She said the provider Network was First Health Network in Florida. Kelly also gave me her personal phone number to call if there was any problem - 954-247-7126. I paid $319 dollars to Kelly using my credit card. She told me to be sure to fill up all paperwork when I receive my personal packet together with my insurance card from the Insurance Company. The insurance card came before the 14 days. I filled up all my health information on the company portal listed, including date of birth and SSN on 2/28/2026 On April 7th, 2026, I called the customer service number to report that my password for American Collective web portal where my information was located was not working. I had used my own, and the company generated password as well but could not login. Whoever picked up on the other end could not help me and I got disconnected twice. Each time they said they could not help and I could hear laughter in the background. At the third try an agent called Angela picked up and walked me through the process. She gave me another password to go back to the portal. This time it worked, and I duly filled up some information I was missing on the portal. My suspicions were aroused at this time. On April 27, 2026, I went to my regular doctor's office for a regular checkup. I gave them my new insurance card and told them that my insurance has changed. They took the card to verify my status. After a while the nurse from customer service came and told me that they needed another number to contact this insurance company. She said no one was picking up the number located on the card. I was shocked!! I came home and looked through all the paperwork I had from American Collective. I did not find another number, but I called the Rx company Revive which was listed at the back of my insurance card. Lisa at Revive said they were having difficulty contacting American Collective as well. She said I should call American Collective customer service. And she also said she would pass this information to her superiors. I called Kelly's personal phone number. She had sold me the insurance. Someone picked up at the other end and when I asked for Kelly he said there was no one called Kelly living at that number. I found another Customer Service Number 855-432-1273 among my papers. I called them and someone called Ava picked up. I explained the problem to her and said could she give me another number for my doctor's office to call, so they could verify my benefits. She said the doctor's office had to call this same number: 855-432-1273 - and she would explain the benefits to them. I asked her if other clients of American Insurance were having the same problem contacting American Insurance. She said yes, and that they needed to call the 855-432-1273 number so she could verify benefits. I called the doctor's office on 4-27-2026 and on 4-28-2026 and gave them the new number they needed to call to verify my benefits. They said they would call me back. On 4-30-2026 the doctor's office called to say that no one was picking up from the Customer Service number for American Collective. They had called twice and twice they were disconnected. The last time they called the message said the number is no longer in service. None of the numbers listed on the back of the insurance card I received from American Collective LP worked. The Rx number worked but it is not connected to American Insurance LP. It is a mail order company. I would like some answers as to how I can safeguard my private medical and personal records I entered in the American Collective LP web portal. I would also like to get back my $319 I paid this company. Most important, I would like all the clients who have had similar experiences of fraudulent money collection by this company, to get back their money

Rental - Rental Scam

There is a business owner who owns a property who promised to lease half of his building to us. Made us fill out a lease application and continued to tell us we would not lose the building while waiting on our NC license to come through. I have proof of him saying we won't loose the lease. He then leased the entire building to one person and never said a word to us about not being able to lease the building. We created our LLC, EIN and got our NC license all filed and approved with the address associated with the building we were promised address. Now we have been told, after calling him 6 times and finally texting him, that he leased the whole building out to a guy to store his boat and airplane. It is a commercial property that he leased out for someone to use as storage. Not as a commercial business. I am reporting him for being deceptive. He has now cost us the money to start up our business and will also cost us more money to get the business address changed. He continually promised us the lease was ours and then without telling us anything leased it out to another person with no warning to us.. in the document uploaded, my husband is the blue words and the property owner's words are in black.

Employment - Boyden

I was first approached by Carita Lahti, claiming to be from Boyden. She has a LinkedIn page stating she is with Boyden Finland. She said she came across my name and thought my background made a good fit. She sent this email: Dear Michael, I came across your profile and saw you’re actively exploring new opportunities—your MBA and background make you a strong fit for a high-impact role I’m currently hiring for. I’m working with on a Business Operations / Strategy Manager position in the Sacramento area (hybrid/remote flexibility). The team is looking for someone who can drive operational efficiency, support strategic initiatives, and partner with leadership on key business decisions. Comp: $110K–$140K base + bonus + equity Start: Immediate interviews We’re moving fast on this. If you’re interested, please reply ASAP with your updated resume, and I’ll connect you directly with the Hiring Manager. She never mentioned the company. I sent her my resume. She immediately responded that I need to work on my resume to make it work for the role and tried to get me to contact some resume writers. I explained this had already been reviewed by a resume company and I wasn't going to pay for another one. She then moved on to say that the hiring manager wanted to schedule an interview (miraculous since my resume apparently needed work, but without changing a thing, I now had an interview scheduled). I should reach out to him, let him know she referred me, although she called herself Taylor in the message, not Carita. She gave me this Teams link to use: https://teams.live.com/l/invite/FEAlYSHhmnaXBPQdQc?v=g1 and that I would be talking to a person named Matthew Lawson. I reached out and spoke to Matthew, who finally told me the position was with Deloitte. He gave me the job description, but it was one I had already applied for and been denied. He then suggested I use a resume and cover letter writer to hone my professional image. Red flags were going off all over the place, so I refused to use the recommended link he provided. I did go ahead and make some updates using AI and sent him a resume and cover letter to match the job description. He then told me I would need to supply an ATS friendly cover letter (which I had provided), A personal brand statement, a professional elevator pitch, a short executive bio, and a salary negotiation letter. I created all those with the help of AI and sent them to him. He asked me if I had AI create them or a professional. I admitted it was AI. He then said he wouldn't get me in front of the hiring manager without having these be created by a professional and told me to reach out to Leveth Grace Specialist at https://teams.live.com/l/invite/FEAiN3vW4zRoTDrsgw?v=g1. I did and explained what he needed from me. She said she can do it for $500 and have them ready within the hour, as Matthew was stating was required. I told her no, I wouldn't be willing to pay more than $100. She lowered her price to $150, which I still refused. Then I found reports of her being a scammer. She then responded saying she would do it for $100, but I still told her no since she was a scammer. Even though I told Matthew I wasn't willing to work with her, I miraculously had an interview scheduled. I have stopped responding to their inquries, even though I've continued to be pinged by both Matthew and Carita/Taylor or whatever her name is.

It was a company on TikTok that sold furniture. I came across an ad for a round boneless couch. I thought great idea I needed it at the time. Besides I had purchased things off Tik Tok previously and never had an issue until now. The company name is Lumen posing as a furniture company. As usual purchases it requires your address, phone number, name, and all of your debit card information; to which I gladly sent. After the approval of my funds from my bank account I was told I would receive a confirmation email with delivery date and things like that. After 6 hours I noticed I still hadn’t received any emails from this company. I immediately felt something was amiss; so I attempted to contact the company via; found out there wasn’t any phone number to contact the business nor an address. I immediately went to my bank app and froze my debit card until I could speak with my bank that following Monday. Good thing I froze my debit card because a few hours later at 2am I received a notification from my bank saying there was a attempted charge on my card to an “Linda” but because I froze my card it didn’t go through. When Monday came I called my bank; explained the situation to them, I was refunded my $50; however there was an additional charge that was made that was not successful and it is unknown how much they attempted to charge. Please avoid this company on TicTok Lumen Email is [email protected] Lumenpick.com They are a scam and posing as a furniture company to gain information on you and try to do whatever to you.

Phishing - Sergeant Noveaak

A man called me saying he was a sergeant and even gave his “badge number” and said that I had two citations for failing to appear for jury duty. He gave me one of my old addresses saying that’s where the summons was sent but I explained I hadn’t lived there in years. He told me I would have a bench warrant the following day if I didn’t go to the sheriffs office and prove that the summons got sent to an old address and I had to update with my new address. Thankfully I didn’t give him my current address. It sounded a little weird so I called the actual sheriffs department and they said “yeah no that’s a scam, this happens a lot. I’m surprised he didn’t tell you to make a payment over the phone to avoid jail time. We do not have a sergeant with that name or anyone with that badge number. ”

The scamming company is a "sponsored" link on google search. They are posing as a company which is doing your passport renewal for you. All they do is fill in a form. Absolute scam. Others should be warned. Sure, Caveat Emptor and all that, but this is an absolute scam. I can't believe I got screwed by them. $111 for nothing. This needs to be pulled from Google search. Absolutely ridiculous that this stuff is allowed.

Counterfeit Product

Sold a fraudulent item - the item I received was nothing like the item that was advertised that I purchased. Additionally, the product advertisement included a touching story about an old woman making this by hand, but she now has tremors so her life's work is ending and she is selling the last of her stock - this was obviously a fabrication based on the product I actually received. This form of deceit feels particularly insidious. Also, several sites online rate this website with 1-2 stars but the reviews they have posted on their website show 4-5 stars, leading me to believe the reviews themselves have been fabricated. I also believe they are fabricated because there is no way to add a review. As a customer who purchased one of their products, I cannot leave a review on their website, so I strongly believe they have fabricated the reviews on their website. It is very possible that this product and its story have been illegally stolen from another seller/shop/etc. The website refuses to refund me for my purchase unless they receive the product returned, but the product must be returned to China, which will take months, and they are requiring that I pay for the return shipping despite being utterly and blatantly scammed. The direct product listing for what I purchased is here: https://craft- folk.com/products/dots-wild-bee-hotel-garden-guardian The picture of the alleged crafter was generated via AI, and I found the exact same product and images being advertised on a site based out of Germany: https://margarethes-garten.com/products/margrets- wildbienenhotel?variant=44508489678931 This appears to be a highly sophisticated, international scam.

Phishing - Stone Gate Lending

I am getting persistent, harassing robocalls from an entity identifying themselves as "Stonegate" or "Stonegate Lending," claiming to be an affiliate of OneMain Financial. Despite being registered on the National Do Not Call Registry since April 2023, I have been receiving daily calls for over 30 days. These calls utilize pre-recorded messages from a "Samantha Fisher" regarding a loan approval for an application I never submitted. The calls are coming from a different number every day to bypass blocks. I have attempted to report these calls as spam for the last month to no avail. When calling the numbers provided in the messages 866-386-5519, agents confirm the company name "Stonegate." I have explicitly requested to be placed on their internal Do Not Call list, yet the calls continue.

Employment

I am filing this complaint regarding a fraudulent company that recruited me under the false pretense of legitimate employment as a remote logistics/shipping agent. The company contacted me directly and explained that they operated as a third-party logistics service that helped individuals in other countries obtain products that were otherwise unavailable to them. They presented the opportunity as a legitimate remote position and required me to complete onboarding documentation, including a W-4 tax form, which led me to believe the company was operating legally. As part of my job duties, I received expensive packages at my home address, documented the contents by taking photographs, and uploaded shipment information through the company’s platform before forwarding the packages to destinations provided by the company. I performed these duties consistently for approximately one month and fulfilled all responsibilities expected of me. I was promised a base salary of $2,900 per month in addition to bonuses for every package that I processed and shipped on time. When it became time for me to receive payment, the company suddenly stopped communicating with me entirely. I was locked out of the company platform, my attempts to contact management went unanswered, and I never received the wages that I was promised for the work I completed. Based on the circumstances, I now believe I was targeted in a reshipping/package mule scam operation in which unsuspecting individuals are used to move potentially fraudulently obtained merchandise while the company avoids accountability and labor payment obligations. I believe this company intentionally misrepresented itself as a legitimate employer in order to exploit workers for free labor and potentially involve them in illegal shipping activity without their knowledge or informed consent. I am deeply concerned not only about the unpaid wages owed to me, but also about the fact that I provided sensitive personal and tax information during the hiring process under false pretenses.

CryptoCurrency - Cryptocurrency

Was contacted by someone named Dana Back on Facebook with a business proposition to earn money for product reviews. She claimed it was Snagshout. I later found out it was not Snagshout, but called unitrade. I had to complete 40 tasks(reviews) a day. Once the tasks are complete for the day you can withdraw your profit. If a task put you in the negative balance you had to recharge your account via cryptocurrency. Then you would get principal back, plus profit at the end. Apparently, this helped the validity of the review by actually paying for it. The website would purchase the item on a merchant's backend, but but no product was actually shipped out. Basically they are paying for good reviews is my understanding. I had to add money to my account several times to complete tasks, but it made my profit higher. The total amount I paid out was $2,968. I was supposed to get a big payout today but they stopped it and said I needed to pay taxes on it before they could release. They refuse to release the funds. I think they are just trying to get more money from me and I'm never going to see the payout. I have screenshots of all conversations with Dana Back as well as with customer service from the "company".

I created an order with this company back in March. Received my order and never placed another order, or signed up for a subscription. On April 6th they charged me twice in the amount of $130.11 out of nowhere. Once confronted, they refunded one charge, but will not refund the other. They again charged me another $130.11 on April 14th and I had to tell them to refund that immediately as well and remove all of my information from tehir website. They have very clearly admitted that none of these charges were approved by me, and that I did not place any additional orders. Yet, they are claiming that their system is unable to process a refund because they 'shipped' the product. I did not order the product. And they are 'unable to track my shipment' when asked. Many times I have reiterated that I did not make any further orders, or authorize any charges to my account, they have fully agreed, yet they took the money from me and will not refund. Unfortunately I cannot find a phone number or business location for this company. Email string attached showing my request for a refund and their refusal.

On this order confirmation page, tracking info was provided even though I just ordered it, that seemed pretty quick. So as a current online shopper from many sources, the merchant always send out email confirmation regarding your order(I never received one). Waited days then emailed them and never received a reply. There was no 1800 number to contact and when I tried to create an online account with the store the link didn't work. I never fall for scams like this but I thought it was valid. These ads should be removed from Tiktok and Tiktok should prevent fake companies and links throughout their app. All purchases should be made through the Tiktok shop.

Hey, Trust you're doing great...We're currently assembling the beauty team for an upcoming paid fashion campaign marking the launch of a new line by Nicola Finetti, and I wanted to reach out personally regarding the Makeup Artist role. We are curating a tight creative team composed of experienced professionals across styling, photography, modeling, beauty, and production to create imagery that feels elevated, cinematic, and visually unforgettable. There’s a sophistication in your approach to skin, structure, tone, and overall beauty direction that aligns naturally with the visual identity we’re building for this campaign. We’re looking for makeup that enhances atmosphere and narrative just as much as beauty itself: polished, intentional, and capable of translating seamlessly across editorial, commercial, and large-format media. You'd be paid for this assignment, and the final campaign imagery is intended for broad multi-platform release, including digital campaigns, fashion/editorial publication submissions, brand marketing, online retail, and large-scale promotional placement. If the project speaks to you creatively, I’d love to send over the creative brief and discuss the next phase with you directly. Warm regards, Lynne Hi: We’re excited to share the creative brief for your role as Makeup Artist on Nicola Finetti’s upcoming fashion line launch in the U.S. This is a paid campaign, and your artistry will be central to defining the brand’s beauty identity.

Color & Finish: Harmonize with wardrobe palette: neutrals with selective accent shades. Consistency across looks and models. CASTING CONTEXT 4–6 models, diverse in ethnicity, skin tone, and body type. Age 23–35. Our models are very comfortable and confident in front of the camera. WARDROBE & STYLING CONTEXT Contemporary, fashion-forward pieces: dresses, separates, tailored items. Minimal accessories for editorial clarity. Palette coordination with makeup. SET & LIGHTING Indoor/outdoor locations with clean, elevated backdrops. Diffused or natural lighting preferred; soft shadows for feature sculpting. On-set collaboration with photographer to ensure makeup translates across lighting and framing. MUA TIMELINE & WORKFLOW Pre-Shoot Planning (1–2 weeks prior) Develop and finalize makeup looks in collaboration with creative team. Provide mood boards, product lists, and reference swatches. Plan continuity strategy for multi-model, multi-wardrobe shoots. Shoot Day(s) Execute all approved looks on-set. Maintain consistency across wardrobe, lighting, and location changes. Perform real-time adjustments as needed to optimize for photography. Post-Shoot Documentation. Record techniques, products, and palettes for each look.

We offer a flat rate of $3500 for the 6-hour shoot. An advanced deposit of $1000 would be issued and would be mailed upfront to you, aligning with our commitment to fair and professional practices.

She told me that I was employed with a company and had an insurance policy with the company she wouldnt tell me the company she just said they have a lot of companies and would send me all the information if I was interested and would call me back on Friday. I said "Well if I was employed with a company and the policy lapse and I have access to a cash benefit, then what if I want to enroll back into the benefit?" Naveah told me that I could do so on Friday when she calls back. Sounded like something I would be interested in. I asked would I know what company this was with as far as the employer goes. She said yes this would be on the documents they would be sending. She then proceeded to ask me if what they had on file was correct: name. birth date, state, address, etc. I said Yes to these things. I paused and asked her name, and company she was with again and looked up the company she was with which was All American Insurance. She asked me for my social security and i gave it.

I was emailed by this company advising that I was approved for a loan. I spoke to the individual to proceed with the loan. There were 3 options to proceed with the loan in order to receive the funds. 1. Have a co-signer with a credit score of 700 or higher 2. Use a vehicle that is paid in full as collateral or 3. Use the company as liability in the event of job loss, illness, etc. I chose option 3 where I was required to pay $975. This was done by e-transfer. Next day, I received a call from the representative I was communicating with and I was told I was required to pay an additional amount up to $3000 as the $975 was an initial company liability instalment. I did ask for the $975 back however, I was told this could take some time and that this was a serious matter. I did not continue the conversation as I already knew this was a scam. I am out $975 but hoping that this loss and complaint will prompt other individuals to not proceed with this fraudulent company.

Seller agreed to sell animal(cat) to purchaser for $499.00. $400.00 for the animal, and $99.00 for delivery fees. Seller requested all payments through Apple pay and gave several links associated with payments. Once fees and balance were paid, Seller asked for an additional $362.00 for undisclosed health certificate and immunization records. I did not agree to pay the undisclosed fee and reluctantly agreed to pay half for $180.00 with Seller agreeing to pay the remaining fee. Once Seller received the funds, Seller requested an additional fee for crate rental which was to be refunded once the animal arrived and the crate was returned. This amount was also not discussed prior to the sale of the animal. Seller indicated that there were no additional fees remaining. After Seller received the $300.00 deposit for the crate, Seller then asked for an additional fee of $700.00 for Travel Insurance for the animal. Once I refused to pay that amount, Seller continued to ask for the money to insure the pet, indicating that the cat was ready for travel. Even to go as far as sending me a picture of a cat with my name on a piece of paper. The picture didn't even resemble the cat originally discussed for sale. Seller agreed to pay half and asked that I pay the other half of $350.00. Seller advised that once I paid my half, she would send the cat, and I was to send her back her half of the $700.00 she would pay in advance. I adv Seller to refund me my money and cease all contact. I realized I was being scammed and stopped all communication.

Online Purchase - Online Purchase - Lamp Scam

I ordered a Tiffany-style, stained glass lamp cat from 3D optical lamp. It was supposed to be made out of resin or a resin and glass combo and were advertised as having a standard A/C plug. The picture on the website of the lamp was absolutely stunning, and it looked like a high-quality item. Keep in mind there are multiple websites showing the lamps I thought I was buying from this website. What I received were very cheap plastic cat lamp that looked like it came from the dollar store. It was poorly painted and had several large paint brush smudges all over the “stained glass” sections of the lamp like a kid painted them. The lamp had a USB outlet, not the advertised A/C plug. The lamp in no way resembled the material, style, shape or coloring that was advertised. Website quote, "Each piece is hand-soldered to form a mosaic of vibrant colors and textures." Website quote, "Crafted from dozens of hand-cut stained glass pieces, each lamp is assembled with care to ensure a unique character and glow." Website quote, "Every handmade glass cat lamp is meticulously assembled by skilled artisans using high-quality materials. The stained glass is joined using traditional copper foil techniques, ensuring both strength and beauty." What a frickin rip-off.... how can they continue to do business in our country?

Identity Theft - American Airlines Imposter Ticket Support Phishing and Identity Theft Scam

I called 1-800-433-7800 trying to call American airlines reservation customer service. He asked for my reservation confirmation code and was able to change flight. I was trying to see what would happen with the additional amount that was an upgrade from the original flight booked. He sent me an email came from Helpdesk-supportairlines.com and has an American airlines logo in the email. I gave him my name and DOB and spouses name and DOB, gave him 2 credit card #'s my Capital Venture card and Wellsfargo card. He mentioned the server was having issues processing credit card payments with capital one for the taxes on this change. Which per the email was $266.02. So thats when I gave him the WF credit card. And said I should get a message from WF to authorize the charge would come from gave me 3 letters which I didn't understand. He tried to run the WF credit card again and told him still no message in WF app or in text message. In my WF app I noticed a new message popped up on my credit card account said it was locked and needed to contact bank. I tried to call with him on hold, but the line got disconnected and he called me right back from a 443-218-2634. And so, he said to contact my bank, and I can contact him directly and here is his # and name and extension # 1-845-652-5521 ext 1043 I thought he spelled out a name like Trevion. I called WF bank again and was verifying the charges and said it was a charge from Great Britian for $266.02 and was for PCM. I told her he did say it would show up as some letters for who the charges would show through. Gave me the # the charge was associated with and was 1-866-918-8233. Said call that number directly and verify they are with AA. And to contact AA as well and verify that its a correct #. So when I called the 1-866 it was not a working #. So I looked up AA again online and called customer service #. I realized I called the wrong # initially. I was supposed to be calling 1-800-433-7300. So when I spoke with agent through this # the agent told me my flight was changed a little while ago and had been charged through card ending in xxxx for $303, which was correct. She couldn't give any other details about how it was changed. I told her I had spoken with someone with some other company that was changing my reservation. She sent me an email with what changes had gone through and looked correct. I called WF back and let them know the charge was a fraudulent charge and kept that card locked and are sending myself and spouse a new credit card. I locked the other capital one card as well.

Employment - Job / Training

I would like to report what I believe to be a fraudulent education and financing scheme involving “Learning Saint” and a website called Hawkins University. I was initially contacted by a representative from Learning Saint, who identified himself as “William” (which may be a fake name). They offered me a “free” Data Science course and promised job placement assistance after completion. Since I was actively seeking employment at the time, I agreed to proceed. I have preserved evidence of all communications, including chats, emails, screenshots, and invoices. I was instructed to register for the course through the website: https://www.hawkinsuniversityedu.us/ The representative then directed me to use the WHOP platform and apply for financing through Afterpay for approximately $2,000. I was told that the payment would be handled using “their card” ending in 0186, and that I would not be personally responsible for repayment even though the financing was being opened using my personal information, including my SSN and name. They also attempted to have me apply for additional financing of approximately $4,000 through Klarna. However, that application did not proceed because Klarna requested bank account information, which I refused to provide. In addition, they asked me to complete scholarship-related forms for Hawkins University, during which they obtained copies/details of my SSN and driver’s license. After obtaining my personal information, they began asking unusual and intrusive questions regarding my home and other personal matters, which raised serious concerns and made me suspicious of the legitimacy of the organization. At that point, I informed them that I no longer wished to continue with the course and requested cancellation of the $2,000 financing/loan. However, they repeatedly redirected responsibility between Afterpay and WHOP instead of resolving the issue. I have already submitted a dispute with Afterpay (Reference #48028887) and also contacted WHOP support, but I have not received meaningful assistance or resolution. I also attempted to contact both Hawkins University and Learning Saint directly, but they have stopped responding to my communications. Due to the misuse of my personal information, the financing activity conducted under my name, and the deceptive nature of the interactions, I believe this may involve fraud and/or identity misuse. I am submitting this report so the matter can be investigated and to help prevent others from becoming victims of similar activity.

For over a month now, their Stonegate Lending reps call me 3 to 4 times a day at all hours of the day from a variety of autodialers with area codes close to me and from Florida. I have had no connection to that company and never applied for a loan from them. They harass me every single day 6 days a week making false claims and refusing to remove me from their list. They have told me I applied for loan and were following up. They have told me they have a file on me. I was also told I was pre-approved. Sometimes I was told that my loan application had been approved. I have pressed 9 to be removed at least 10x to no avail. I have been soft spoken and reasonable, I have screamed and yelled but nothing is stopping them.

Caller stated that a company was in process of filing legal papers against me. I asked what the company name was and she said she doesn’t know but the parent company is Allies Lending. I asked well can you tell me what companies they own and she said I don’t know they have a lot. I said well can you see on the paper and she said no because it’s a sealed court record and that the statute of limitations is coming up on it because it’s from 2019. I asked her well what are they trying to sue me for and she said a bad check. I told her I do not own checks and did not write one back then. She then said well no one uses checks anymore and that the law is changing. She then said she is going hang up on me because I wouldn’t listen to her but I just wanted to know what she was calling about as I have my debts worked out or in process of getting worked out, but I have nothing outstanding from 2019. The woman had a bad attitude and every time I called back she just got more upset and said I was wasting her time.

I was told my package was delivered, lucky for me I have cameras that cover every inch of my property, and I advised tivalook that I have not received anything and to please contact the delivery service and track my package. I was told that the delivery service that they use is unable to show me a picture as to where my package was delivered or to locate my package. I then requested a refund. They offered me a 10% refund, and they were going to reship my order. I foolishly agreed. After a couple of weeks, I check on my order and again it showed delivered. I contacted tivalook customer service and advised then I did not receive this order either and that i wish to get a full refund and at this time they said they can only offer me a 70% refund and it may take 45 days or more.

I made an order for flowers for Mother's Day, a very important day for my mom and the fact that my father recently passed. I wanted to get her something nice, I ordered the Stunning Lily Bouquet - Premium edition (a photo as advertised on their website for this product is attached). What we received was not even remarkably close to what the product is advertised as looking look. The flowers that were received are dead, wilted, not lush, not colorful, not even close to the amount of flowers that is advertised on their website. This was a near $85 order for my grieving mother. I contacted From you Flowers about the issue I have with the flowers, provided photos of the advertised product and the photos of what was actually received. They offered me $25 back, which is fine, but please look at the photos of the flowers that I received (attached), and that those are seemingly worth $60 to From You Flowers. Their customer support has been zero help, provides zero sympathy, and quite frankly are rude and unprofessional. This to me is fraud, it is a scam, the product they are advertising vs what I actually received are no where close to one another on size, scale, fullness, lushness, and it is entirely unacceptable that From You Flowers to completely disregard that fact and offer little to nothing in means of support. I do not recommend ordering from this company for anyone who needs flowers for a loved one -- you will not receive the product you ordered and when you reach out to their customer support team ([email protected]), you will be dismissed and still be on the hook for almost the entire cost despite them sending a terrible product.

Counterfeit Product - Counterfeit Product - Cartertoronto

The shoes were advertised as flexible leather with arch support. They included “orthopaedic” in the description. The shoes are some form of plastic with a completely flat footbed. After 12 emails, I finally received a confirmation of a full refund and no need to return the shoes. We shall see if the refund comes through but at least I have written confirmation for my bank. Do not give up. That’s what they count on. They started with a 15% refund or return shoes at my expense, with tracking, for full refund. Shoes cost $100, tracked shipping is ~$80. So $180 total spend for a $15 refund. The refund then went to 20%, 25%, 50% and finally 100% with no requirement to return the shoes. The key is to reiterate repeatedly that the product is materially misrepresented, that a claim for reversal with your card company has been initiated and that you will return the shoes at their expense only. Even then it will take lots of back and forth. I told them I filed a dispute and provided them with the deadline for reversal provided by my bank. They finally succumbed.

I've received numerous calls from the same phone number 956-426-1590 stating that they have been trying to serve me documents for court. Both persons that have contacted me from the exact same phone number have been extremely threatning and rude. They mention going to my job, family's home, etc to serve me. I told them I'm currently not in the city and respond with "How convenient, you keep hiding, but you are the one with all of these charges". I contacted my local clerks office and there is nothing on record that they are trying to serve me any documents. The 1st time I gave them by debit card, they were suppose to provide me with all of the legal documents, etc due to they are a "Mediation firm". They never sent me a receipt or payment plan until I called to ask them about it. When I requested it from them, they sent a regular e-mail with a payment plan schedule. I've made arrangements before and they are legal documents from a firm. This one just doesn't feel right, especially with all of the threats and rudeness. At this point, they make me not feel safe because they have my SS, address, family information, and phone number.

Got an email about a remote job about being a data entry rep with good pay that started soon, had a conversation for an hour or two with interview questions, was told to wait a bit, then I got the news that I would get a job offer, along with information that I would be getting a formal job offer in the morning along with a w-4 and I-9, and a code of conduct form, along with tasks to start training. The next morning came, and I got the task of writing a report on how to attend to customers to ensure customer satisfaction. I also got and filled out the W-4, I-9, and Code of Conduct forms. which I then sent to the person I had been messaging by the name of Simon Weytens. I was also told I would receive a check in the mail to buy items like a laptop and a printer. Then I was curious and wondered if this was a scam. I looked it up, and it definitely seems to be, but it is a very good scam, as I had a very long and somewhat interactive conversation with this person. So I lost information to them, like SSN and other things you would give by filling out the W-4 and I-9. ALSO (The phone number is not right. I just do not have a phone number for the scam, so I typed random numbers to be able to at least report the situation)

The message asked me to interview online at a specific time but did not provide any legitimate company details, recruiter identification, official email address, or verifiable website information. The message appeared suspicious because it came from a random phone number, used vague company information, and attempted to quickly schedule an interview through text only. Legitimate employers typically communicate through official company emails, professional recruiting platforms, or verified business phone numbers. This appears to be a potential employment scam designed to collect personal information from job seekers or lure victims into fraudulent hiring activity. I did not engage further with the sender.

Ordered under garments from this company under the Shop app. Was told the item was delivered but never received the package and the credit card was charged. There was a confirmation of deliver sent to me on the Shoo app but no picture showing where it was delivered. The package was searched for and nit found. Attempted several emails with no response. Called the number found through their website attached to the Shop app and it never rang and it was associated with a number based out of Portland, Oregon. Then typed in the main web page to see if there was other contact information other than the contacts given through the shop app. The email information was the same but the number on the website was associated with a number based out of Big Rock, Illinois. I also looked to see if there was an address associated with this company and could not find one or where their offices would be located. The credit card was under my mother’s name who ordered the product and I helped her with the transaction. That is why I am the one reporting this company. As I have never had issues ordering through the shop app and have received items from various vendors who use their site. I’m so disappointed that this has happened and my mother and I were targeted.

She told of all the ingredients from Japan and other Asian countries that can't find here so only available in short supply while supplies last. Instant weight loss results as promised by tennis great Salina Williams as she described her great experience and weight loss. I should have know better but there was no way to stop the 40 minute (approx) video to confirm the product. I paid the 6 bottle price (best deal offered) and clicked on "buy now". When I received the 6 bottles, I checked the ingredients and none of them were what Jillian spoke about. Everything was sugars, apple peptide, vitamin supplement. This is a total expensive scam.

This parking garage is intentionally set up to deceive its customers. The gate opens without any notice of needing to pay. This is a car booting scam garage. The gate automatically opens on arrival, implying that you pay only when you drive out of the lot. There are no signs stating one must pay upon arrival. Even those who have paid upon parking have gotten booted and required to pay a "fine" to get their car un-booted. Read the reviews online. Everyone that's parked here has gotten booted and had to pay a fine. The owner should be fined and required to revise their entire operation — lock the entry gate so you must either pay on arrival or take a ticket that proves your arrival time and you must pay on departure.

Online Purchase - Online Retailer Scam

Item supposedly sent from Hong Kong. Supposedly delivered 4/12/2026 with tracking number JSECQ2075235474YQ . Item (a dress) never delivered. This "delivery service" is a scam, multiple BBB complaints for same problem. If sending business is legit (doubtful), this company probably keeps items for resale to their own profit. Emails to this company bounce back as undeliverable. PayPal refuses to reverse charges because the sending company states the item was delivered, they obviously believe the scamming company (probably this "delivery service") instead of the honest consumer. Out the money. Never again. FYI the phone number I left for the company is MY number, there is no phone number listed for this company (surprise..) and the computer won't accept my complaint without a number.

My daughters and i were looking on sites looking for houses to rent. I was looking for a specific one that was on another site but could only find it on Craigslist. I inquired about property via the 716 382 9553 number and said that i was interested. I was told that I along with 3 other adults, (2 of which are my daughters) had to fill out an application to see if we were good candidates for the place. Despite not seeing the house in person yet. The person send me a link via Google that i filled out as did my daughters and another adult which gave all our personal information SS#, license/ID, current picture and multiple other personal details. I was told in order to process we would have to pay $50 each, which equals $200 in total. The person insisted that I pay through chime. I told them that I do not and never will use an app for money exchange. The person said to ask my children to see if they would help me download chime or if they had chime in order to send the money. I questioned it due to the response sounded like it was AI generated or not responding to what I was saying or had said. I asked to meet in order to see house. The person made excuses and needed to process the application and monies first. I said that if they don't meet that i would report them due to not wanting to show the house and wanting to exchange money beforehand. We arranged to meet. I then got the original post from my daughter and messaged the real estate agent that was on that post. I confirmed the meeting at the posted address on the date what time. The real estate agent responded saying they never arranged this meeting and that I was more than likely scammed by someone posting a duplicate real estate account on Craigslist. The real estate agent informed me that he never posted on Craigslist. That I should report it. He also said that this has happened before and it needs to stop but doesn't know how to stop it. This person got my personal information, along with my 2 daughters and another adult as well as a current picture.

Product was advertised as Areliaa brand but item received was a knockoff JAYSUING TRANSFERPROOR COLOR I contacted customer support. Here’s their response: Thank you for reaching out and for explaining what happened with order ARL74503. I understand how frustrating it is to feel like you received a knockoff instead of the name-brand product you were expecting. To clarify, the item you received is our Areliaa product. During a packaging transition, some batches are shipped with the manufacturer or supplier branding instead of the Areliaa name on the tube or box. The formula and performance are the same as the Areliaa product advertised on our website, but I understand that this still feels misleading and not what you had in mind. We do not have a separate Areliaa-branded version available to exchange in cases like this, but we can absolutely resolve this for you. You have two options, and you can choose whichever feels best for you: you can keep the item and receive a partial refund, or you can return it within 90 days of delivery for a full refund of the product price. Return shipping costs would be your responsibility, and original shipping fees are generally non-refundable. If you would like to return the item, please reply and confirm that you prefer a full refund via return, and I will send you the detailed return instructions. If you would rather keep the product with a partial refund, let me know and I will process that refund right away.

I purchased a boneless chair through a site called “Lumenpicks” from TikTok. It took me to a legit looking website that said “Lumen” and had me pay $37 and give all of my personal details to make the purchase. I did receive an email immediately after saying thank you for my purchase. I also received a message that said not to dispute any charges with them or they would file fraudulent charges against me. I thought this was very strange so I started researching this company. Come to find out it is a scam! Three days after my initial purchase I started seeing charges on my bank card for $69.99 luckily I locked my debit card once I found out they were a scam so they didn’t get anymore money from me after the $37. But now I’m scared to unlock my debit card and use it. I need to get a new one, but unfortunately this will cause me a hassle, because I need my direct deposits to keep going to my card. It’s a mess and completely unfair that they have now scammed thousands of customers. TikTok won’t take responsibility because they say once you click the link it takes you off their site, but I wouldn’t have been scammed in the first place if the ads didn’t come on my TikTok page. Needless to say I won’t be using TikTok anymore either. I really hope the proper channels can investigate these scammers so people can stop being scammed. Times are so hard on so many of us and we don’t deserve to loose more money. I purchased that no less chair, because I have no furniture and can’t afford to purchase any. I had a new baby last year and instead of always sitting on the floor with my baby I was wanted to have a place for her and I to sit together.

Phishing - Imposter

Note that I listed spammer in state of Washington. I do not know that but could not delete information from BBB reporting form. below is story of my experience. I received an email from a peraon posing as Jacob Watters with a PDF letter attached to the email. The address of 335 Coben Crescent, Saskatoon, SK SK S7S 184, Canada and website of www.watterslawoffice.com on the letterhead were correct. The phone number of +1 (236)233-3766 was not. First document sent was an official looking receipt supposedly from Ontario Court of Justice in Toronto ON Canada for ten thousand, one hundred and eighty five Canadian dollars procurement fees for documents for inheritance claim. Receipt in French. The unclaimed insurance from a deceased married woman with the same last name as mine was supposedly worth $10,800,020. The sender's terms were 10% would go to various charities and there would be a 50/50 split between the law office and me, less any government fees. Great! I would come into a sizeable windfall. I knew I had relatives in Canada but it seemed odd that I could be considered an heir to a woman who was the spouse of my relative. It also seemed strange an attorney would take 50%. Through subsequent communications, I did affirm my name, age, address, phone number, and email address. The spammer finally asked for a copy of picture ID, such as government issued driver's license or passport. That is when I really began searching for more information. It seemed odd that the deceased was a stock broker and CPA. It was odd that she had been the client of the attorney's office but died without a will. It seemed odd that the attorney was willing to use his insider information to split proceeds with someone who only "may" be a relative; and not a blood relative, at that. During the entire proceeding, which only took a few days, I kept waiting for the hook. I was not about to share personal identification documentation via email and decided to use postal service to deliver to the official sounding agency in Montreal – thousands of miles from where the "relative" was supposed to have died – without a searchable obituary – and from where the attorney was located. Bottom line: instead of mailing proof of identity to Montreal, I searched the Canadian Bar. They listed Jacob R. Watters as admitted to the bar in 2006 and provided address, phone, and email. The phone and email were different from the one the spammer had claimed belonged to him. Also, the reviews on the website called Mr. Watters Jake, not Jacob. I contacted Mr. Watters via the email on the website and he quickly replied that it was not he who had communicated with me and that in was a fraud perpetrated in the United States. I thanked the real Jacob (Jake) Watters via reply email and wrote this up. Felt good to be receiving a multi million dollar inheritance, even if for only a couple of days; a wasted couple of days.

Selling a couch on Facebook marketplace for $50. A woman in the comment section referenced a phone number (352-809-6805) interested in the couch. I reached out to them about the couch, and they initially seemed interested, asked about its condition, mentioned when they could go pick it up, etc. They first asked if I had Zelle, but I said no and we switched to Venmo. I sent them my Venmo username, but they claimed they needed my email address as well. That was my first mistake. They sent me these emails (9:43 & 9:45AM time tags) implying that the transaction required a business account, involving them "sending" $950 for a whole $1000 transaction to meet the "minimum" payment on a business account. The email also suggested to call this "help number" (781-336-6363), which I stupidly did. I was unfamiliar with the business account, and after they claimed to send the $950 they needed it to be refunded, so that the original "buyer" only spent $50. This is where I should have backed away, but I was too naive and sent the $950 (10:37 time tag, Venmo account @Jamika-Barnes-6739). Of course, after the transaction, they wanted to keep taking advantage of me. The "buyer" claimed that they were deducted twice and were requesting another $950 to "resolve" the issue. The "help person" on the phone suggested this course of action too. By this point, however, I had realized my ultimate blunder. I said that Venmo did not work anymore, and they suggested I download/use Cash App or Apple Pay to send the other $950. Both the caller and the "buyer" were hard pressed to get that extra money, but I insisted upon them refunding my initial $950 payment, to which they ignored and only claimed that the "buyer" was deducted twice and needed the additional payment. I hung up at this point and called the actual Venmo help line to report the issue, but since the transaction was peer-to-peer, they claimed there was nothing they could do. I will dispute this charge with my bank, but I still feel very foolish and stupid for actually falling for this ruse. In hindsight, it was very obvious, but they instilled a sense of urgency and importance that makes you feel pressured to act fast. I also conducted all of this on my phone, so I did not see in Gmail that the false Venmo emails were sent by [email protected], and not the actual Venmo account. Do not fall for these tricks like I did, they clearly work in teams to pressure and swindle your money under a fabricated sense of urgency. I have certainly learned my lesson, do not fall victim like I did.

I was contacted by someone named Claire Holloway, CSA about a potential film directed by Nia DaCosta currently casting. The emails seemed very professional and even had me sign a basic NDA before auditioning. I sent the audition and she told I was one of four people to be selected to go to Burbank, California for an in person audition and even that Hulu was in talks with the project. Even someone I know who is a casting director said it seemed real at first. We then discovered there is no one named Claire Holloway in the CSA database, and there is no public information by the director they claimed was on the project. They did not get the chance to request money from me and I have since deleted the audition video. But beware! This person is good and can easily fool people who just want to be acting and get into the business.

I made a purchase from Kojiva on April 14, 2026 after seeing an advertisement on TikTok. During checkout, I purchased a lymphatic brush along with additional items including massage oil, a collagen mask, and extra brushes. I subsequently received several emails stating that my purchase was “incomplete”; however, I also received an order confirmation email listing the items purchased, shipping charges, and several complimentary items, including additional brushes and a de-puffing guide. Believing my transaction had been completed successfully, I disregarded the subsequent “incomplete purchase” emails and waited for my order to arrive. After several weeks, I received my package, but it was missing both the massage oil that I paid for and the complimentary guide that had been included in the confirmation email. More concerning, on April 22, 2026 — eight days after my original purchase — I was charged twice in the amount of $49.99 by Kojiva within approximately one hour. These charges were unauthorized and were never disclosed to me as part of my original purchase. Due to the suspicious nature of the charges, I contacted my bank, Chime, which canceled my debit card and opened a fraud investigation. I then contacted Kojiva customer service regarding the unauthorized charges. I was informed that the charges were allegedly for a “monthly membership fee” that the company claims I agreed to during checkout. I immediately disputed this claim and requested proof showing where I knowingly opted into any recurring membership or subscription charges. Despite multiple requests, Kojiva has failed to provide any proof whatsoever that I agreed to enroll in a membership program or authorize recurring charges. Instead, I repeatedly received responses stating that refunds would not be issued and encouraging me to use the alleged membership to purchase additional products at discounted prices. At this time, I am requesting: 1. A full refund of both unauthorized $49.99 charges; 2. A refund or shipment of the missing massage oil item; 3. Written proof of any alleged agreement to recurring membership charges, if such proof exists; 4. Cancellation of any purported membership or recurring billing authorization associated with my account. I believe the company’s checkout and billing practices are misleading and potentially deceptive, particularly if consumers are being enrolled into recurring memberships without clear and informed consent.

I contacted a locksmith last week to schedule a consultation regarding safe in room as key was lost. Locksmith informed of a 50 dollar inspection fee while also informing that estimated cost will be around 200 dollars. Appt was made for May 12th. During visit other employee and or locksmith was informing us that cost will be around 800 plus dollars instead as he informed that back of safe needs to be cut and burned to obtain sensitive documents in safe. I informed locksmith that this method may damage sensitive documents and materials. At first he noted that it would be a cheaper option to pick lock to open it, however he then later retracted his statement around a few moments later and to insist instead to charge us 600 plus more dollars as other locksmith employee initially informed cost will be around 200 dollars or so. I and my grandmother who is also the home owner started to get nervous and suspicious that this locksmith/company/employee was possibly a scam artist as no contract was drafted nor signed regarding inspection fee nor total cost and labor. I had to inform locksmith that I need to discuss this matter with my grandmother in private. I also had to inform locksmith that if he wanted any payments, it will have to be via an invoice email method. Locksmith said no, and refused to leave property. We informed him around 4 to 5 times repetitively that if he does not leave, the police will be called. He still refused to leave and started to get upset. I then had to take protective measures to escort him out of residence by showing him non lethal self defense tool at my disposal. Defense tool was not used as everyone was (not) harmed by any party. Once he walked to his vehicle up the street of residence I called 911. Gave brief description of name make and model of car. Late model Tesla 3 and or Y. Gave Los Angeles police dept dispatcher phone numbers associated with locksmith: 747-717-9046 805-661-7473. Contacted personal family attorney to give phone number information. Ethnicity of locksmith/individuals are possibly Israeli/Middle eastern. Attachment photo needs to be zoomed in to show tesla. Will also follow up with Adult Protective services.

Travel/Vacation/Timeshare - Fake Online Flight Booking Site

I'm not sure if this is the best way of reporting this, but I purchased a plane ticket through kayak, not realizing I was being routed to underpricer. Since then, I've received daily emails from underpricer claiming that the airline has changed my flight - first that the date of return was a week early, then that I would be flying into a different city, and several other very significant changes. All emails use the same language claiming that the change originated from the airline. I do show is booked on the airline, and the airline does not show any change in date. Under Pressure staff are telling me I have to confirm changes with them. Upon researching and realizing that the company has many reviews about scamming people, I mentioned that for the significant changes they are telling me I need to make the US department of transportation would offer a full refund of my flight. They are offering to refund some of my flight at a fee of about $1,200. They already have my money, and I have no confidence that I will be able to use these tickets, and they will not refund me as required per US department of transportation regulations.

Gravity Defy received the shoes back to them April 4th, 2026 to their return center but my mom has not received a refund over a month later. We have both emailed and tried to contact Gravity Defy multiple times but they do not respond. If you google reviews about returns and refunds through their company, there are also a lot of people who have had the same thing happen. They are attempting to scam their customers.

Online Purchase - Susan jewelry santa fe

The Facebook ad was about a mother and daughter going out of business, Susan Jewelry Santa Fe. Also nowhere did i see santa fe New Mexico ( another red flag) I read reviews ( which are fake too, im sure). Quality pictures on website but in person they are something of a party city quality, plastic looking stones and cheap fake metal. They are not sterling silver or rose quartz stones. The Green earrings never listed what stone they could be so that should have been a red flag.I received a tracking number I researched and found it was coming from China not the U.S. so I tried to contact my ulta mc to see if they could help in someway but said it can be investigated. So I also called Susan jewelry and all I get is a busy signal eveytime. I complained to Facebook but i got a bot response saying it does not go against their company policy! But today I looked up susan jewelry santa fe and you get nothing! The return address is fake too. Two different tracking numbers so will appear to be sent from us and not china. So that is good Facebook finally took it down but there will be another Ad created using different names. I did complain numerous times in the comments section for Susan jewelry as well.

Employment - Fake Casting Director Outreach - Travel Fees Scam

The scammer claimed to be a casting director named Claire Holloway from California. I have been a union, represented actor for years. The emails seemed very legit. I was asked to self tape an audition. I was then contacted that I was one of four final actors chosen for a callback in California. Since I live in NY, the person calling herself Claire Holloway sent a series of emails in order to coordinate my travel and lodging to the callback in California. They sent flight information asking me to cover $300 of the $689 fare, and she said that my hotel would be covered by them. I was instructed that Chime was the only way that payment could be made. Once I made payment, she wrote that an itinerary would be sent. I never heard from her again. I am a long time New Yorker who has never been scammed before. The emails I had received were identical to many I have received from legit casting directors. In addition to the monetary scam, she/he is robbing actors of hours of their time in memorization and preparation for the auditions and callbacks.

Although I received keys, I never received a deed, even after more than three years. I also experienced restricted access to the building and pressure to pay HOA fees that were not supported by a legally formed condominium regime. Communication and follow-through were extremely poor, and promised documentation was never provided. Based on my experience, I strongly recommend that anyone considering doing business with these companies or individuals conduct thorough due diligence and verify all legal documents before sending any funds.

When I ask for their last name or identification number they hang up. I’ve asked to speak with a surpervisor and when I do they hang up. I get a call everyday & I’ve asked to be removed.

Below is a voicemail script Jeff Zarvey left. Voicemail Transcript: “Hi, this is Jeff Zarvey. Hope you are doing well. I wanted to give you some updates. This is Jeff Sarvey. I saw you were looking for a personal loan with a lender that we've worked with for many years, and it looks like I may be able to get this approved for you. Press one or call me at 877-578-4222. If you go with a $28,000 personal loan at 6.2%, payments could be around $540 per month. I can go over this with you and adjust it based on what works best for you. This would be an unsecured personal loan, so there's no collateral required, and the funds can be used for whatever you need. It's always good to have access to a lower interest, personal loan for flexibility and financial breathing room. Press one now or reach me directly at 877-578-4222. Press 9 if you prefer not to receive updates.“ Voicemail Transcript from Helen Hopkins: “ , this is Helen Hopkins, senior underwriter. I'm calling to give you a good news. This is Helen Hopkins here. I was looking at your request through one of our lending partners, and it looks like I can put together a better personal loan for you. Your profile actually fits within a range where we can structure this better today, both in terms of rate and overall repayment. Rates are going up slightly, but we can still lock the last week lower 5.75 option for you. This should be a straightforward process, and in many cases, like yours, we can have funds available within just a few days once everything is finalized. If you're looking at something around $25,000 at approximately 5.75%, your payment could be around $458 per month. In some cases, we can also adjust the structure. whether that's increasing the amount, extending the term or lowering the payment to better fix your budget. Call me back at 866-771-6273 again, 866-771-6273 and I'll go over everything with you.”

Online Purchase - Flower Delivery Website Scam

I tried to order flowers for delivery in Shirley, MA as the website was local florist. The order stated my credit card transaction had an error. Called the credit card company and they block the purchase, probably because it was a known scam site. But I thought it was just a mistake on my end that I had a typo in my address associated with my credit card. So I phoned and ordered again and gave them all the information (name, address, phone number, and credit card number for myself and the name, address, and phone number for the flowers to be delivered). I then received an email that from Valerie Smith stating the following: I hope this email finds you well. I am writing to inform you that due to supply issues, we were unable to fulfill your order. We have issued you a full refund for this order which you should expect to see posted back onto your bank statement in 3-5 business days to complete the refund process on their end. Thank you for your understanding and stay safe! I believe they get all this information and sell it on the black market and use the flower delivery website and order as a front. I reported to my credit card company, stopped any payment, and replaced credit card. These scammers are getting more clever every day and absolutely ridiculous. They need to be stopped and prosecuted.

Blommie Blanket is a scam. I ordered what was supposed to be a Mother’s Day gift about a month ago. After placing my order, I only received an order confirmation and one email saying my shipment was on the way. After that, I heard nothing from the company except promotional emails. I emailed them three different times asking about my order and never received a response. The blanket finally arrived on Mother’s Day evening, but there was no free gift included as promised. They advertise these as handmade blankets, but what I received looks like a manufactured doll blanket. It is extremely small—smaller than a tree skirt. I have also been unable to contact the company to return the product. To make matters worse, my phone has now started blocking their website as malicious spam.

Please note that I wrote a similar complaint to the Florida Attorney General’s Office in March 2026 and on 2 April, received a very noncommittal response with suggestions that I complain elsewhere . Although I believe this circumstance falls squarely within the Florida Attorney General’s Office to enforce deceptive and unfair trade practices, I’m writing elsewhere in the hope other offices take my concerns and investigates this organization known as Forest Mountain Farms (forestmountainfarmscbd.lovable.app) for fraudulent practices. During the last week of February 2026, I received a package in my mailbox addressed to a Thomas Kwiedorowicz at my residential address. When opened, the package allegedly contained CBD gummies; just labeled as such with none of the normal packaging one would expect to see on supplements, etc. The mailing receipt is enclosed. Initially, we thought the package was merely misdelivered because this happens quite frequently in my rural community. Since neither my husband or I ordered such a product, we followed up first by email (later determined to be bogus) and then phoned the 1-877 number to find out more about the order. Someone answered the phone who sounded intoxicated and indicated they would pass my contact information to their supervisor who would contact me. Long story short, while speaking with this individual I began to feel like the order was credit card fraud. After concluding the conversation, I phoned my bank and discovered that it was fraud. The credit card transaction, along with a smaller purchase made by the same “Thomas Kwiedorowicz” earlier in that week, were both cancelled. I received a new credit card 10 days later. Inconvenient but not fatal. Our bank processed these transactions at first, even knowing there was no “Thomas Kwiedorowicz” listed as an authorized credit card holder nor even a “Thomas Kwiedorowicz” listed as a resident at our address. Since February, two other community residents have had similar deliveries from other CBD organizations and believed those packages to be misdelivered as well. Needless to say, these other two incidents were also part of a credit card fraud scheme. The discovery of two additional incidents involving Forest Mountain Farms online is what prompted me to continue writing for assistance. What I discovered from research: This Forest Mountain Farms organization may be operating with or using stolen credit card information as part of their sales scheme. Two other complaints were discovered online (enclosed). The website address listed above doesn’t look legitimate. This Forest Mountain Farms organization may not be licensed to operate in Florida (or in any other state). The shipping label contains an address to a warehouse in Florida. There are 8 businesses associated with the address, but Forest Mountain Farms is not among those businesses and does not appear to be a legitimate business. Because we live in a rural area, mis-delivery of packages is not uncommon. However, there was enough “correct” information on this label to make us wonder if this is part of a home break-in scheme or further misuse of our personal information. I did alert our local sheriff’s department about our concerns. Anyone can “google” our address and discover the location, and in particular, how far off the road we are located. That isn’t to say our home isn’t well protected- it is. But the potential for a break-in is greatly increased when a stranger is misusing your personal information, particularly a home address. Please investigate the legitimacy of this organization and stop them from further fraudulent practices. Given the bogus email (which would have resulted in a notification to a legitimate company that the transaction may be fraudulent) it feels highly probably that this organization is using stolen information.

He has since demanded a refund multiple times and the company has stopped responding/ has not issued the refund. I have now emailed the company as well demanding his refund.

The website appears to be a store within the United States. The pictures of items appear to be nice quality. It took weeks for the items to arrive. I attempted to cancel the items because they were in the warehouse in China for almost two weeks. When they did finally arrive, they were extremely cheap material, poorly made, and wrong sizes. It is impossible to get a refund from the company as they charge you for all the return shipping to China and a restocking fee. Please don’t fall for this scam. I’m sick I lost so much money. They clearly want you to believe it’s a boutique in the United States. It doesn’t become clear until your items start to ship from China. Since figuring out I fell for scam I have found hundreds of reviews with stories just like mine. I wish this store was not able to falsely advertise as if they were based in North Carolina.

Phishing - Loan Scam Calls

I received a phone call from a person claiming to contact me from a Nexa Cash Finance claiming to approve me for a personal loan in the amount of $3,000. She described everything about the loan including that I would pay $91/month for 3 years. I started asking questions like how much is the APR which she answered 6%. I continued to ask questions like is Autopay a requirement for the monthly payments and could I pick my repayment day for the month. She asked me about my bank, and I told her I only have a checking account thru PayPal, to which she said they do not use that bank, did I have any other bank like a credit union or Wells Fargo or Bank of America, her examples. I told her no but i had a friend that would let me use their account at Bank of America. I then asked her if she had a call back nunber I could get to call her back once I had all the banking information established so she did not have to wait on hold for a while. She then hung up on me, and when I tried to call the number back, it said the number was disconnected. Im glad that I have learned to ask questions about these things, because I believe that is what saved me from this Nexa Cash Finance scam. 980-327-0272 is the number that was used to try and scam me, even though im sure they will use different numbers to try to find more victims.

Home Improvement - AMS Services

On April 15th, AMS services LLC sent Paul to fix my dryer. He got it running after about 20 minutes, and came to me saying which parts he replaced and that it would be $355. He never consulted with me prior to diagnosing the issue. While he was working on the dryer, he was coughing and breathing very heavily. When he left, I noticed there were finger spots of blood on the appliance. The dryer stopped working three days later. I called on April 22nd to describe the issue as the repair was covered under a 30-day warranty. They told me they would return my call after speaking with a manager. They did not call back. I called on May 11th and described my situation. They said they would send the technician out tomorrow (5/12). I asked them to send a different technician because of the hygiene concerns I had with the previous one. They told me it had to be the same technician. They told me he would come between 11am and 2pm. On May 12th, I took time off work to wait for the technician. I called at 1:50pm because he had not arrived. They told me he was on his way. I explained that the window of time was closing and I couldn’t wait more than the three hour window they said he would be here. They told me they would call me back. Then he rang the doorbell. He arrived at 1:51 and inspected the dryer. He quickly identified the issue as the latch to the dryer door. He started to talk to his car. I asked him if this would cost me an additional amount or if this was covered under the warranty. He said he would return. When he returned, he went to the working dryer and said he could replace the part for an additional $150. I told him no, and that I did not want to spend more money on the dryer. He argued with me and told me that the part was American made, and my dryer would last for 20 more years. I told him that was what he said last time, and it broke within three days. He told me this was a different problem. I said there was no way of knowing that the problem was in the parts he replaced last time, and that I wanted him to leave. He stood at my dryer and shook his head, then asked again if I was going to have him replace the part. I told him no, and asked him again to leave. He then offers to drop the price to $100. I told him no, and that it was time for him to leave. He then asked “so you have broken dryer?” and then reached down to the switch in the door and started messing with it to make the dryer stop working. I told him he needed to leave my house. The dryer stopped working and he said “there you go, your dryer no work”.

I have received legitimately hundreds of calls from this company and have asked to be placed on their do not call list numerous times. All of the numbers they call from are different and somehow use my area code. These happen sometimes multiple times a day and even soon after I have physically spoken with someone and either stated I do not need the service or do not want to be called. I do not know how legitimate they are but their reviews mention numerous incidents of taking money or lying about practices. They are relentless in trying to get me to sign up for policies and pay them money. I do not know how to make the calls stop because there is no number to block as they always use a new one. The whole operation has a very suspicious air to it and when you ask an agent about it they get rude, defensive, sometimes vulgar and sometimes hang up. I believe they think I am my elderly parents as we are on the same phone plan and their names come up with mine. I believe they are trying to prey on vulnerable older people.

Home Improvement - Home Improvement

We lost our home to a fire in Perris on 9/2/24, and had to relocate to Corona in the mean time. I was looking to get help as I don’t know anything about dealing with the county and permits. An acquaintance gave me Rita Espinoza’s information so I could hire her to help with my permits for my manufactured home replacement. All Rita does is ask for money, I have given her checks and money transfers through Zelle, with no invoices given to me, she always says she has them in a file and will give them to me once my case is done. I thought it was too long, as it’s been over a year and a half and I’m not home. She always says soon and blames it on Edison. I went to Riverside County to find out she hasn’t done much and is in hold, I come to find I have Code Violations, and I have given her money for things she said had been done and were not. Some checks were given to her written to Riverside County and when I asked for the invoice at the county, the county does not have them at all, they were cashed out but not by them. I tried going to the police to make a report and they weren’t able to help as this is considered civil. Rumors around the county are that people have had issues with her as well. She is always being rude to the workers at the county, and likes to intimidate people and act ill to get away with things. I would like to stop this business from doing this to other people and hope I get my money back. She also asked for a check that she brought back saying she didn’t cash it, and I come to find out she did, it was signed and most likely cashed out through mobile banking. I feel scammed. The county said I was supposed to be home four months after starting the process, but because of her it is taking too long as she is trying to find more ways of taking money and we come to find out she suggested getting some work done at the property that was not needed. I have proof of everything as it is a lot and I write everything down.

Online Purchase - Product Not As Advertised/No Refund

I bought sandals on the www.walkourpath.com webcite for $59.95. They were described as high quality orthopedic leather soft sandals with offered return policy: " To start a return, contact us at [email protected] with your order number. You have 60 days from the day your order is delivered to request a return. To be eligible, items must be unused, in their original condition, and sent back with all original packaging included. Once we’ve received and inspected your return, we’ll issue a refund to your original payment method within 7 business days." Instead I received a very low quality, smelly, plastic hard junk shoes I cannot even wear and I demanded to return them the next day. Company Tel number was fake and customer service answered my demand of return in a few days, offering 10%, 15%, then 20% of my $59.95 payment and to leave these horrible shoes to myself. I refuse the offers and demanded to return the shoes and to reseive my money back. Then they said: "Because our warehouse is located overseas, sending a parcel back can unfortunately be quite expensive for our customers. Return shipping typically costs around 35–40 USD, and it can also take several weeks for the package to arrive and be processed before a refund is issued. We understand that this can be inconvenient and time-consuming". I bought them in the USA and paid with the American Bank credit card. I think that company address they have on their webcite is fake as well: 1523 Albany Ct, Rock Springs, WY 82901, USA.

Advance Fee Loan - Stone Gate Lending Union / Samantha Fisher

received a phone call from a spoofed phone # 501-781-8241 with a robo message from a "Samantha Fisher" who didn't say the name of the company but was advertising personal loan options and telling me to call 866-386-5519 where a real person named "Maria" supposedly in the underwriting department said the company name is "Stone Gate Lending Union" wouldn't tell me her direct phone # for the company and said they have many many phone #'s so she doesn't know which phone # I'm referring to. She was very pushy when I told her that I never requested a personal loan quote from anyone and my phone number has been on the national DNC registry since 2021 and that if they continue to keep calling me I will report them again. She still tried to push me to talk to/be transferred to a loan specialist. She said she even understood what I'm saying when I brought up the DNC list and that I have already reported their business.This will be the 3rd or 4th report I've filed with the FTC and FCC and an IC3, now I'm filing it here. Did not give personal information, not even name or anything and my credits been frozen with all 3 bureaus since forever, so I'm not too concerned that they got anything from me. Just very tired of these predatory scam calls from spoofed phone #'s, will contact my mobile carrier again to ask what options they have for me as well.

Debt Collections - Phishing

Received a call on spouse's cell phone from this debt collector. Supposedly I had an outstanding debt to a medical lab. Caller was insistent I had to pay now or there would be a judgement against me. Caller couldn't tell me Lab name, address, account or date of service. Caller would not give me their debt collector's address or other identifying information. Caller insisted I'd been sent statements from the lab, and some were sent certified mail. Caller knew my name and address. I had never received anything. I researched my medical bills and called my providers, researched insurance provider claims, researched Medicare claims, and found nothing to indicate lab work with a balance. Under extreme duress, I paid the debt collector. Upon seeing the receipt in my email, it was immediately obvious this was fraud. The receipt came from a gmail address, with the name Aviva Industries, LLC and the name Aviva Corporation, LLC in the receipt.

Travel/Vacation/Timeshare - Ticket Flight Scam

Last January, I searched online for another phone number for Delta Airlines because their main customer service line had extremely long wait times. I found this phone number 866 432 6013 for a company titled Flight Services, which is located in Mexico. Their response was fast and effective, and at the time I was pleased because I urgently needed to arrange a travel for my mother, who had a doctor’s appointment overseas. I later noticed a very high commission charge on my credit card statement for their service. What concerned me at that time was the high fee which was never disclosed by the agent, even though I specifically asked twice during the call. Unfortunately, this misleading information was only the beginning of the problem. During the call, I provided two different credit cards to pay for the airline tickets and related charges. About 25 days later, I began receiving fraud alerts on both cards. One card showed unauthorized food purchases, while the other showed train ticket purchases that I never made. Almost all of the charges were blocked, except for one unauthorized transaction of $1,250. Fortunately, in a second review, the credit card made the credit of these funds. On the other hand, I contacted Delta customer service, and after a brief investigation, they informed me that the phone number I called did not belong to Delta, so they could not assist with the fraud issue. However, if a third party is helping increase Delta’s ticket sales by collecting confidential customer information and issuing valid international airline tickets, while also receiving high commissions in return, it raises an important question: Does this constitute a business relationship or partnership? Please state away from Delta's partners before you get in a big mess. Thank you for your time.

I saw a blouse on Facebook that I liked. I went on The Fifth Season to find out if they were legitimate. They appeared to be so I bought 2 blouses. There was no indication that the company was in China. Pictures of a store with people shopping is on their website. It took just about three weeks for the items to be delivered. The blouses were of very poor quality fabric and poorer craftsmanship. Although they advertised that returns were easy they cautioned me about returning the blouses. Instead they offered to reimburse my credit card with $22. I accepted this and do not know if they have actually done it. I gave the blouses away and was thankful that I had not lost a larger sum of money. There wa no phone number given anywhere so I gave a phony one just to get onto your next page.

I am filing this complaint because this experience has caused me extreme stress, financial hardship and emotional frustration. I trusted Atlanta auto tech LLC business/ Steven with my vehicle after being told that he was a certified Maserati mechanic and used Maserati parts which made me believe my car was in qualified and trustworthy hands, I paid for repairs believing my vehicle would be properly fixed. Instead I was left dealing with additional problems, broken promises and a complete lack of accountability. I was promised a $300 reimbursement that I never received despite being told it will be paid back to me. I also discovered that the person driving my vehicle which was Steven Mickles did not even have a valid drivers license by way of public records which made me feel completely unsafe and taking advantage of knowing that my vehicle was operated by someone unlicensed without my knowledge or informed consent is deeply upsetting to make matters worse. My vehicle was left at the dealership without proper communication, leaving me, confused, inconvenienced, and without reliable transportation, this entire situation has placed a major burden on me financially and emotionally. I have lost time money peace of mind and trust. I believe I was misled regarding this individuals qualifications and treated unfairly and unprofessionally throughout this entire process I do not want other consumers to experience the same situation. I am requesting reimbursement for my losses and that this complaint be formally documented and investigated. Thank you.

Then I said I looking for Sophia Marshall. He asked the case number & I provided that information. (Case Number 108-8268) then he quickly went into the spill that I owed on a credit card. That was associated with my address, SS #. He even provided my whole SS#. Which was a little bit unsettling. He stated that the credit account was open 01/28/2015. Card # ending in 9371. He also said a letter was sent to me on Jan 2026 offering a solution. I told him i never received anything. he sounded very knowledgeable about the law, that they would put a lien on my new car, and house and also a credit hold on my social security number for 10 years. He really did not offer a payment plan just that if I lost in court I pay up to 8000.00 in fines, court cost and the actual amount on the credit card. I asked for a letter of debit and he said it was to late to do that since I never responded to the letter in Jan that provided a payment plan. He said that would be served soon and good luck.

Online Purchase

I purchased a coat from Emilia Rose AKA Emelia-Melbourne, which presents itself as a boutique based in the Netherlands. The coat was delivered 11 days later and presented significantly different/misrepresented from what was advertised on the company's website, specifically: - The fabric is noticeably thin and of poor quality, bearing no resemblance to the product photos - The construction is poor throughout, including loose threads and puckered hem. - The sleeves are too short and have elastic; the photo has long sleeves with an overlay cuff and button - The pockets were applied sideways. - The overall appearance is materially different from the website listing Understanding I would pay for return shipping, I immediately requested a return as instructed per email. The company replied with complicated, detailed requirements of measurements and photos of the product. Additionally, the company's customer service email domain is "emelia-melbourne.reamaze.com" — inconsistent spelling of the brand name (Emilia vs Emelia) and the reference to Melbourne, which is inconsistent with their claimed Netherlands location. This raises serious concerns about the true origin of this business and whether it follows the same deceptive dropshipping pattern as other similar operations. Finally the company provided the return address as Dongguan, China and instructions that I not only would be responsible for international shipping but customs fees and tariffs. International return shipping was never disclosed on the website or the purchase confirmation. The issue is not resolved; it has been a week since a return and full refund was requested.

Moving - Stellar Pro Cleaners

This company was a nightmare experience. They were hired for a professional move out clean for my mom's EMPTY house. We were given an invoice, which we agreed to before the cleaners came out to the house. We also asked for a list of all the services that would be provided beforehand. This was the written agreement. The first cleaners arrived 2 hours late to the appointment, with no notice from them or the company. They came in an unmarked vehicle with no cleaning tools or supplies. They told my mom that this was their first day of employment for this company and were given no instructions to bring their own supplies or tools. My mom kindly let them use her tools and supplies to clean. *My kind, older mother did not know any better and let them come in. If I had been there, I would have turned them away immediately. I don't live in area* This cleaning crew vaped inside, and when my mom came to check on them, none of the rooms had been worked on. She called the company and they told her they were very sorry and would fix this, free of charge. Stellar Pro said they would send a different crew later in the week to rectify the situation. P.S. One of workers called and texted my mom the next day to tell her that she fell and broke her leg and she was going to sue my mom. My mom reported this to Stellar Pro. Stellar Pro did not seem phased by this and said would take care of this worker and for her not to worry. The second crew dispatched later in the week, arrived 3 hours late to the appointment. They worked for half a day and then left. They said they would come back the next day to finish the house. At no point, were we informed that this would cost extra. Why would it? It wasn't our fault that the cleaners showed up at 2pm for an 11am appointment and left at 7pm. They did come back the next day and worked for 3 hours to finish the house. Stellar Pro called my mom a couple days later and told her that her bill was going to be TRIPLE because she had cleaners at her house for 3 days. They made up charges that were never discussed and told my mom this was part of the agreement. I let the person on the phone know, that we will pay the original invoice and not a penny more. It is not the customer's fault that YOUR STAFF came late and was not adequately prepared to perform a professional clean. I am going to report this company to the Better Business Bureau for trying to price gauge, claim expenses for services not provided, and trying to take advantage of the elderly. This should have been an easy job, as the house was already cleared beforehand of all furniture and trash, and swept and vacuumed. Unfortunately, Stellar Pro Cleaners did not perform the professional service we anticipated, nor did they provide good customer service. If anything, they made my mom's life so much harder than it needed to be, causing additional stress and grief. Please think twice before using your hard-earned money to employ this company.

Initial purchase was for a daily weight loss patch. The option was given for a one time purchase or monthly purchase. A one time purchase was selected. $47.41 was taken from the paypal account that contained the bank checking account information. On April 27, received notice that a pending withdrawl of $.75.49 was to be made to Lipoviausa. I contacted the bank immediately and said I did not authorize that charge. They suggested that I contact customer service. I attempted to contact customer service via email and also via the phone number the bank provided. No response was ever received. Contacted the bank again and requested a stop payment order be placed on the unauthorized withdrawls. The bank was processing the paperwork for stop payment and two more unauthorized pending withdrawls appeared on my bank statement. The bank was apologetic about not processing the stop payment prior to the 2 additional unauthorized withdrawls and the bank is seeking reimbursement for those two payments of $107.95 each that were both made on May 11th.

If I could give this Avouria company a lower than one star review, I would. Their tank tops quality is low. The customer support is not any good. They refused to take the merchandise back and of course they also refused to return the money. All about this company is a scam. There is not satisfaction guaranty at all. I absolutely do not like the tank tops. Never used them. They are still in the same package that they came and I lost 97.93 dls by buying this low quality product. I am warning you... this is a big scam!

Posted pictures of used cars on Facebook for sale and contacts people browsing used cars online directly through Messenger. Nothing was done by phone: the entire transaction took place online. After getting your details to purchase a car and money to have it delivered they start demanding more and more money to have the car delivered, money that was not discussed previously while promising the shipping money would be refunded, urging you to pay an extra fee to prevent the car's delivery from being delayed. Once I caught on and refused to send more money they refused to cancel the delivery and refund my money, after two days of negotiations.

Company is offering, in addition to the purchase of mopping detergent replacement, mop heads they state will fit any spin mop in their ad, but in reality, they are cheaply made and pop out of the mop head when they touch water. Contacted customer services and they boldly told me that they do not intend to offer a refund because they now have a mop that they recommend, and the replacement heads do not fit other models. (see attached). They are now not responding to my further attempts to get my money back on the purchase which went from 4 mop heads to 8, and then a total of 12 I am stuck with.

I only found out when I checked the tracking after not having received the item in the time I thought I should have received it. I emailed the company because the website said 30 day money back guarantee. It had not even been 30 days, but I also had not received my product and no longer wanted it knowing it was coming from China. When I investigated further and googled the address on their website it came up as a common scammer address for Wyoming. The credit card charge comes out of Arizona, the telephone number goes back to Washington State. I emailed them several times but never got a response. Calling their telephone number 360 477 3552 does not even identify the company. I did leave them a message. Please close this website down.

Home Improvement - Pro Construction

A person, who gave his name as Aaron Koch, came to our door with a leaflet from this company promising to repair the masonry (pointing) on our chimney for $600. They came the next day and after an hour or so came to the door and said that the chimney was in bad shape and was going to fall down. I was home alone and knew nothing about masonry and chimneys, and after some discussion I agreed to get a cashier's check for $8,000 to pay for updating the chimney, but a neighbor (a retired contractor) said it was too much money and did not think the chimney was going to fall down and the bank said they had seen this scam before and that they would take my money and leave the chimney torn down. They made a copy of the contract Koch gave me and said I should tell them to stop work and leave. I went home and told them to stop and leave. There was some bullying and whining and then they started to take their scaffolding and tools. Meanwhile, one of the managing men made a big deal of getting both the contract and the leaflet from me and everyone left in a hurry. However, a neighbor had one of the leaflets and we got a copy of the contract from the bank. I used the contract to look up the license number to get to this website. The phone number on your site does not work and does not match the number on the leaflet or contract, and the address does not seem to exist. There is another license under the name of Koch which has been suspended. We got off better than we might have as we did not give them any money, but our chimney is in pieces on the ground. We will have to pay thousands to get it rebuilt.

ey, this is Donovan Monroe. I called your phone twice, but for some reason your phone is going straight to voicemail. The reason why I'm calling is because I have some documents that are being tied directly to your social, an all-state issued ID that you may possess. It also says on here that an asset search is also being conducted too. So if you receive this message and you have not received a red folder or green folder of documents in the mail. You need to contact me in my office as soon as possible. Now, I will have a notary in the office later today to sign and stamp all paperwork. Now, I do understand that this message is somewhat vague, but at the same time, I don't feel comfortable leaving results of a private matter on a voicemail box that can be overheard by a 3rd party or another person. So once again, this is Donovan. I'm leaving the office about 90 minutes earlier than usual today for my daughter's soccer tournament, which actually begins this later this afternoon. So again, when you receive this message, just reach out to me and I'm gonna explain everything to you in a simple way for you to understand and obviously make the best decision. Take care.

This took us to their recommended "Bodewell - your appliance care experts" to schedule. They did not service our zip code and Mr. Stewart from "Stewart's Appliance" arrived at our door stating that he was sent as the local repair person. He provided us with his business card, invoice, and completed the initial repair that we paid $410 for. He found additional repairs needed for our dryer plus 2 other appliance jobs that we needed done and we paid him $350 up front as he stated he needed to buy the parts first. We paid his invoice of $350 via Zelle at his request to his daughter's, Tempe Stewart, account (Zelle 770-728-5267) that he stated managed his business and bookkeeping for him. He then scheduled service for the following Monday, 4/27. He did not show and when we contacted him, he stated that we had agreed upon Tuesday 4/28 afternoon. He did not show up on 4/28. We contacted him 4/29 and he stated that he had been in the emergency room. He contacted us on Mon. 5/4 and stated, "I will be there at 10 tomorrow morning". On Tuesday, 5/5, he again texted, "Can I come today bet 3 and 6? and we told him that would be fine. He did not show again. Multiple phone calls to both of his contact numbers (470-487-5583 and 470-346-7171) went to full mailboxes. We requested that he refund our $350 and he responded via text, "Yes, ma'am. I will refund the $350" and "I will drop cash off by Friday at 3". He did not refund our money. My husband called his number and Mr. Stewart immediately texted back, "I'll call you right back". We never heard from him. We lost $350 and 15 hours of our time waiting for him to show to do the paid-for repairs.

Fake Invoice/Supplier Bill - BenchCraft Custom Millwork / impostor

The scammer is impersonating the business owner of BenchCraft Custom Millwork, to gain access to information or fraudulent payments. We have had two reports from people with fraudulent charges on their credit cards, and a memo on the charge with our company's name. Those two people have found our office's contact information through a Google search and reached out to us, but we are unable to process credit cards in the first place and we have no records of those transactions, so we've told them to dispute it with their banks. Shortly after that, we received contact from a company in Denver that our business owner was being impersonated via email, trying to gain access to credit card processing methods using our company's name.

I responded to an ad on Ziprecruiter.com as I am looking for a job, it was for an administrative assistant. I got the email you described exactly, I followed the link after googling it, which said companies do this often, so I gave them my social security number, paid a $1 for the service and it then sent me to a number to call and he said the system was down and to send my transunion report. I asked for my $1 back and to cancel the service as it said it's $1 per week and he said no and tried to talk me into his program. http://creditscore.allshifts. org/ And the phone number I provided is MY NUMBER, i had to enter something to proceed, I got no phone number for him.
