Counterfeit Product - Online Retailer Scam

I ordered two dresses and the material, style, and color is not at all as described. The company advertises as a North Carolina business but is in China and their return policy is falsely advertised as they require you pay to ship items to China, which is insane. This company is a scam.

Online Purchase - Online Retailer Scam

I placed an order for two dresses online and they came out to about $100 each. The dresses were not for me so I wanted to return them. I was told I could return them but I had to pay $30 to return them. Then I was told if I don't want to return them I can pick out another item or items that equal the amount I paid for and I would not have to return the dresses and they would give me a credit for the other two items. When I got the code to place an order for the other items that would be covered I was then told I had to pay an additional fee of $28 and change. All I wanted to do originally was return the dresses and get my money back. They make it impossible for you to return the items and then they give you this good offer but I'm told which I found out on Google that when you do that and you pay the additional $28 they take more money out of your account as well.

Online Purchase - Online Retailer Scam

I ordered a product called AUDICARE. The company claims that this is a healthy hearing supplement. I received 4 bottles and took as instructed. The promise was that it would definately improve hearing capabilities. However, the promise was that if it did not improve hearing that a full refund would be returned after 90 days. Whenever I try to call the company I received a message that says I have reached the company after hours. I feel this was a deceptive business practice without any regard to the buyer and no recourse as promised with the believe that money would be returned if not satisfied.

Online Purchase - Online Retailer Scam

Product was for do-it-yourself dentures. Their website was slick and appeared legitimate. Nowhere was I told that to get a refund I’d have to return item to China. Nowhere in the website is China even mentioned. I received what looked like a miniature crushed box of what appeared in their website. Size was approximately 3.5” x 2” and contained nothing that could be construed as a full product or even a partial one. The package was shipped from Illinois. I emailed them for a refund numerous times and got numerous polite responses to return to China. I responded “product was shipped from Illinois in USA and will be returned to the return address on package”. This went back and forth until I finally realized they had no intention of honoring their 30-day policy.

CryptoCurrency - CryptoCurrency Scam

I was approached as a friend on fb, we had shared contacts with a few of my family members so I felt like it was a legit person? Slowly we began to talk how we made our living and she began to tell me about how her uncle worked for goldman sachs and he would basically give her inside info on gold trades on the international gold market. So, I slowly began to trust her as she seemed legit. We made a trade about a month ago and I made like $190. I withdrew a portion of it and thought ok she is truthful, then the problems began.. we went to do another trade and when she realized I only had a little over half my money left at the exchange she had me send my crypto to, she got aggravated and said it wasnt enough to worry about trading with? So , I began to get suspicious because it was like she was not hearing me and kept telling me that if I deposited an addition 2500 then we could trade? I informed her I couldnt and tried to immediately take my money out of this site called CryCoin?; and id request a withdrawal and it would never arrive?;; Kraken finally informed me that the coins I purchased and attempted to deposit were counterfeit and werw worthless??: so I ended up losing the $650 plus about another $150 before I caught on that I was not making any errors sending my money that something was very wrong. Now , Crycoin has knocked me out of the app and refuse to recognize my username or password to get back into my account, this was after I inquired about the counterfeit tokens they sold me

Online Purchase - Online Purchase - Hearth Manor

I had purchased a gas insert fireplace with installation for $8067.07, 4067.07 from credit card and 4000 from e-transfer from my debit account. So far, they had only installed the gas line, electric and chimney liners in my fireplace cavity and for several months they gave excuse after excuse for the delay to install the gas insert which was the bulk of the cost and I have yet to receive it. I requested a refund and they assured me they will provide me one but has yet to do so. I tried to visit them but I on their front door I discovered a distress warrant from their landlord for outstanding debts they owe as well as a handwritten sign stating that they are closed for renovations from July 9 to July 16 which I find highly unlikely, so I have little confidence in getting my money back. I have lost a lot of time and money from promotions to install the mantel around the insert once the install would be done as well as time lost to finish renovating my home before I could sell it.

A Jean jumper was purchased however the garmet received was poor quality made of acetate and polyester. The garmet did not represent the clothing on the website that was purchased. Customer Service was contacted via email since there is no telephone number. A representative stated to keep the product with no refund. When I refused and requested a full refund, the “merchant” stated a 20% refund and to keep the product. Once again, I asked for a full refund due to false advertisement and piss poor quality material. Finally, the “merchant” stated to return the product to China and then a full refund may be given. This raised another flag that this was not a true vendor but an imposter. I also came across other complaints and victims on Facebook that made purchases with the same scam business.

Online Purchase

I bought a virtual deliverable service from spellsbymia.com. I have no video or photo proof the service took place. I only have a written description. The paragraph description of the service provided by the business owner was flagged as “highly likely to be AI” by three separate AI bots. The business owner stated that if I wanted video or photo proof of the service I needed to request it prior to checkout - as of submission of this complaint that is written nowhere on her business website, product pages, or check out page. It was also not expressed when we discussed the service being purchased over email prior to my purchase. This was only mentioned after I asked for video or photo proof of the service completion. This business is operating as fraud. Writing AI reports. Not providing any proof of service and not providing the information required to get proof until you ask after the completion of the service. It’s a loop that allows her to continue to operate under fraudulent terms without providing anything to anyone and using AI and information given by the client to fraudulently make it look like she has.

She then asked if I'd heard about this before. I was trying to make sure I never said the word "yes" on the phone. She then told me it was for a firm called "Westbridge." While on the call I looked up that name and saw no real results. I told her this call seemed scammy and she got hostile and told me she would go ahead and send some company this recording showing I refused the information from her. I said okay and took the info and stated I'd look into it and if it's not a scam then I guess I'll miss the court date. She gave me a "case number" and this phone number (855-351-1721) and said to call them to get more info.

Voice message received matched another report for this caller verbatim. "Hey, this is Donovan Monroe. I called your phone twice, but for some reason your phone is going straight to voicemail.

It also says on here that an asset search is also being conducted too. So if you received 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 third 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 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."

Jumping in early because I wanted to make sure this landed before your day gets going this week after the holiday. Trans Union and Equifax finished their June update, and your file came back with a preapproval for a $41,250 hardship personal loan. No hard credit check, same day funding available. Payments around $436 a month. What most people do with this preapproval is consolidate everything. Visa, store cards, any balance carrying a high rate, one payment, lower rate, cards back to zero. It's just a cleaner way to run the finances and honestly, a good move heading into the 2nd half of the year. Call me at 888-839-0109 when you get a minute.

After not receiving items I researched the company and found bad reviews I had not seen prior to making the purchase. I emailed the company and did receive a reply that they are not a scam but a legitimate closing business and then the Shop app was updated with all kinds of tracking information. Nothing was still received. Two months later I had my Bank cancel payment and also alerted authorities to what appears to definitely be a scam business.

They also are all middle eastern people, with a very strong accent. When I ask them to remove me off their list they say I need to answer a couple of questions, which actually makes NO SENSE. They're trying to get more of my personal information from me and I refuse. This has been going on for at least the past 2 plus months!

Online Purchase

In March 2026, I purchased two United Airlines reservations through AirFlightFare/CheapFlyingFares and paid the full purchase price of $4,168.96 for five passengers traveling from San Francisco (SFO) to Hong Kong (HKG), departing July 17, 2026, and returning August 11, 2026. The company repeatedly assured me that my electronic tickets would be issued approximately 7 to 10 days before departure. Relying on these representations, I paid the full amount several months before my travel date. On July 3, 2026, I contacted the company to request my e-tickets. I was told they would be issued within 72 hours. After receiving nothing, I contacted the company again on July 8, 2026. At that time, I was informed that my reservations had allegedly been canceled by United Airlines because they were "the cheapest tickets" and that I would have to pay approximately an additional $1,600 if I wanted to keep my flights. I immediately contacted United Airlines directly and provided both confirmation numbers. United Airlines informed me that they could not locate either reservation in their system and had no record of the confirmation numbers I was given. The airline was unable to verify that any valid reservations or tickets existed. At no time did the company notify me that my reservations had been canceled or that there was any issue with my booking. I received no written notice, no cancellation email, no explanation, and no documentation from United Airlines supporting the company's claims. The only reason I learned there was allegedly a problem was because I contacted the company myself to request my e-tickets shortly before departure. The company accepted full payment months in advance but failed to provide the airline tickets that I purchased. Instead, just days before my scheduled departure, they demanded additional money without providing evidence that the airline canceled the reservations or that valid tickets had ever been issued.

I went online to search for a new handheld vacuum. I clicked on a website called "consumertestreports.com" that indicated the Oryzom Handheld Vacuum was its top pick. I foolishly did not check the credentials of the website nor independent reviews of the product. I clicked on "Go to product" button on that webpage and was taken to the oryzom-store.com webpage, where I purchased the product with a credit card. I kept getting emails asking me to track the package via Apple Wallet -- which I thought was suspicious as I didn't use Apple Wallet to buy the product. I did see through USPS Informed delivery that the sender was listed as "Amazon" which was also odd. I received a package today through the UPSP but is was just an empty unlabelled cardboard box with no invoice. I now realize this was just a big scam. I will alert my credit card company as to this scam as to try to get a refund for the money I lost and have locked my card until there is a resolution.

Counterfeit Product - Counterfeit Product

I purchased a dress online. The dress I thought I was purchasing had a embroidered overlay with sheer sleeves was was a deep sage green. When the dress arrived, it was a pale comparison (in quality, color and everything else) of the dress I ordered. No overlay, wrong color, different fabric, etc. When I reached out to the company and asked about a refund we went back and forth a few times, including sending them pictures of the dress I received. They said it was indeed the same dress. They offered to let me keep the dress I got for a %15 refund or I could mail the dress to the UK at my own cost for a full refund. The company is based in San Francisco, CA and the dress was shipped from Vernon, CA but it could only be returned if I chose to incur a cost close to the actual cost of the dress (clearly intentional). The amount of the dress was not that much and I'm assuming these criminals hope people just chalk it up to poor luck and forget about it. In searching further, I found the same dress they sent me on Shein for less than thirty dollars.

Counterfeit Product - Online Retailer Scam

I 1st saw the product several times as an ad/commercial during an app that I play daily. I was supposed to get 2 of what the ad displayed. After not getting the package after the 2nd week, I checked the tracking # & it said the product was in transit. After 3rd week I contacted the company, they sent me a tracking link that still said, package in transit. I waited another week, a small package arrived in my mailbox, nothing like expected. It was 2 small plastic flashlights, nothing like the ad depicted. I wrote the company again, their exact words were “my satisfaction is their top priority” & they don’t do “reshipments, adding 2 options: Option #1 We would like to offer you compensation of 30% of the purchase price. You can keep the product without having to return it. This allows you to decide how to proceed with the product while receiving compensation for the inconvenience. Option #2 If you prefer a refund and would like to return the item, you have the option to do so. Please note, however, that we do not cover the costs for return shipping. The estimated cost for return shipping could be around $20 or more. Once we receive the returned item in our warehouse in its original condition, we will refund the full amount to your account. It is important to mention that this process may take some time or involve risk of loss. I was given a China address, wrote again, told them it would cost me out of pocket to send the product to China. They re-countered with a 40% refund & I kept the product. My initial cost was $39.21 - the 40% refund ( $15.68 ) = their profit $23.53 & I kept the product. The flashlights I received are nothing like the ad depicted, size, material, no free gift.

Retail Business - Elite Mobile Detailing

I found this company via a facebook ad and wanted to book with them to get my wife's SUV detailed as an early birthday present for her. I spoke with the company via facebook and all was well. One thing that I wanted to make sure was with this service is that they would not need water provided by us to complete the detailing. The person on the facebook chat said, very specifically, that we would NOT need to provide water. Hearing this, I booked for service the morning of 7/10. The detailer showed up and immediately was asking for water from my wife. It should be noted that I was not home for this, I am at work. My wife explained that we did not have access to water for them and that we verified that we would not need water to do this. The man was immediately hostile and scared my wife with his hostilities to the point of tears. He demanded payment in the amount of $200 and would not leave the property and continued to intimidate my wife to the point of her calling me crying and telling me to send the money to this person so he would leave and she would feel safe. I sent the $200 via venmo, NOT BECAUSE I WANTED TO BUT BECAUSE I FEARED FOR MY WIFE'S SAFETY. I should have called the police, but I was so scared of what this strange, clearly unstable person was capable of and knowing that my 2 kids were also present, I just wanted him gone. I sent the money and the guy left without doing anything at all. He threw a temper tantrum, slammed the doors on my wife's car like a child and then left with my money and no services completed. I have contacted the company via facebook (where this all started) demanding my money back, demanding an explanation of what happened and I would like a formal apology from the worker that scared my wife so much. This is crazy. The company keeps giving me the "we'll look into it and get back to you" run around, but as I am sure you can see, I do not trust this company. I cannot even find a website for them with LOTS of searching done on my end. I am questioning the legitimacy of this company as well.

Purchased Asicis Novablast 5 on 6/3/26 --and had them shipped to my son in Houston, TX Box was shipped from overseas via a 3rd party drop shipper called GOFO and arrived in crushed condition on 6/18/26 My son took photos of damaged shipping packaging and the shoes which are clearly counterfeit. They have incorrect markings on shoes themselves and tags are written in Japanese. He has other pairs of authentic Asic Novablast 5 shoes to compare against. I contacted Weston Blake regarding this fake product and did not hear back--I reached out again a week later including other complaints/reviews that were posted on their website after my purchase detailing this exact same bait and switch. Company finally responded offering only 20% refund or option 2 a 50% future purchase. Unresolved

Service was disconnected on 06/02/2026 and received confirmation of disconnection which was only possible via phone call. Modem and equipment was returned within 5 days to the optimum store in Bridgeport, CT. on 06/15/2026 a full month of service was charged. $80.64 on 06/16/2026 Optimum Customer service was contacted for this error and they re-assured me that a full refund would be given upon the completion of the billing cycle. on 07/08/2026 a refund of 8.87 was issued on 07/10/2026 customer service was contacted and they said nothing could be done since internet was used the entire month of June from 06/01/2026-06/30/2026 at the original address. NOTE: service was disconnected due to a relocation at the end of may to a different address, so there was NO possible way of service being used in the month of June. the ask is for the BBB to send Optimum a letter of cease and desist these malpractices, no matter how much in advance you call, they will extract money from customers. With these procedures, Optimum is making it very difficult to properly discontinue services so that they have more time to keep charging for the subscription indefinitely. Refer to the Restore Online Shoppers' Confidence Act (ROSCA) and Section 5 of the FTC Act to penalize deceptive and burdensome subscription practices. thank you

Online Purchase

I purchased three dining and entertainment events from Sellout Tickets at the end of December 2025: Wizard's Feast - $228.49 Beauty and the Feast - $228.49 Icebar - $123.64 At the time of purchase, the first two events were scheduled to happen in late January, and the second a month later. Our storms in late January were so bad most businesses were closed on the date of the event, so I didn't think anything of it when the two Feast events were rescheduled for April. Then February arrived without weather issues, and the Icebar was also moved 3 months down the road. In April, for no reason, the Feasts were again moved three months out to July, and in May the Icebar was also moved three months out. I requested a refund of the events from Sellout Tickets at that point, and was told they would honor my refund, but it would take 90 days to process a refund request. I did not receive refunds on any of my events, and on day 91 I filed a dispute with my bank. My bank ended the dispute saying I could not be refunded on a purchase I had made more than 60 days ago. So bravo, this merchant has a fantastic scam. I believe my purchased "events" are now slated to "happen" in December 2026 and January 2027. I'm confident they will not actually take place. Please do not waste your time or money with this scammer. If anyone has any ideas about how to recover my money, I would welcome them.

(844) 968-2892 or the number shown below(either the main number or a number further up the chain) My mom had received a text from somebody claiming to represent her job in the format below. Reminder: HC*G New Hire Enrollment with Carla Garcia at 06:00pm (Central Time - US & Canada) on Thu, Jul 9From 843-508-8147 (no-reply) She's about as close to a 0 on tech/business as you can get(computers, phones, automated systems, or whatever). She can't explain to me where it came from; she acted like an employee/employer sent it. I have to try and scramble to handle her affairs. The CAPS letters in the above message represent where my mom works and it isn't uncommon for their employees to be enrolling in something annually or semi-annually. Plus, it's the 1 year anniversary of when this new company(above) took over for her old one. The link had a way of setting up appointments. Upon setting one up, the 1st appointment was for July 16th at 1 PM. The reason we did it that way initially was because we thought that it was something that would occur at work and she would be directed on how she needed to proceed. I found out after setting the appointment up that it was a scheduled call back. Since they used an agent call back method instead, she needed me to be there. So, I canceled the 1st one. This rep/agent was Lexie Estrada. Then, I set it up for the 9th instead at 6 PM(Carla Garcia). My mom has these changing work schedules from week to week, so--since it wasn't handled at her physical employer--I had to make the appointment on a day that she knew she would be off already and that I'd be available. But, Carla canceled this time and my mom agreed upon 10 AM on the 10th. Despite it being canceled by Carla, the phone still had a reminder that lit the phone up in blue as it got closer to 6 PM as a reminder at that time. The call is only scheduled to last 20 minutes; that's what it said! I've never seen a scam operate like this before. I think it has to be, though, because I see another victim for the same exact number(but different[but similar enough] motives and companies). My mom lives in MS.

No information is provided that would even remotely describe about what legitimate issue they’re calling; they just mention an “urgent matter,” threaten to commence skip tracing, and state that the call will be documented as a contact attempt. At the conclusion of the call, they urge me to “do the right thing” (which is rich coming from people that literally have victims).

When I didn’t receive anything by April but the website said delivered, I reached out and said it wasn't delivered. I was told they could resend it. I agreed. In mid May I saw again that it was delivered but this time said someone had signed for it. I reached out asking who signed for it and demanding a refund and the signed paperwork. After arguing for a few weeks, I was told a full refund would be sent. I have yet to get that refund. I was told it would be 25 bus days max. It has been over 45.

I ordered 3 packages of tanning gummy’s but when they arrived only 2 packages came. I contacted them by [email protected] a spoke with an Alex in customer service, so he said he would investigate the situation and get back with me shortly, the next thing that happened was I got an email billing me for 64.93 for 2 more packages of tanning gummy’s. I sent another email to hello@bronzii and they said they would look into it, I told them that I did not give authorization for them to use my debt card and that I was going to cancel my debt card at the bank, and that once the other packages of gummy’s came to my address I would be returning them. They never did get back with me on this situation and I’m very upset about it . Well I just wonder if anyone else has had the same thing happen to them.

That number is flagged as a scam. It shows up in multiple reports tied to a fake “final notice” mail scam: - Letters dated around September 2025 included a fake “Allocated Waiver” check for $199 and used this number, urging people to call within 7 days to avoid “revocation of the waiver.” They referenced a generic “Home Owner ID” and vague property details to look legitimate. - Complaints on 800notes.com describe identical mailers with “tear away sides,” a “Home Owner ID,” and language like “FINAL ATTEMPT TO NOTIFY YOU” — with multiple people calling it very suspicious/a scam. - Other victims reported it being spoofed as “Homebridge Financial Services,” again referencing the $199 “allocated waiver” final notice. **Bottom line:** This is a known mail/phone scam targeting homeowners — don’t call it, and don’t respond to any letter referencing this number. If you got a physical letter with a fake check, you can also report it to the BBB Scam Tracker or ftc.gov/complaint.

Online Purchase - Online Purchase- Recurring Subscription Scam

So they had a promotion for clothing online. I thought to try out the company as it looked legit and they had a return policy. Once I placed the order on March 21st for $27.88. I had not heard from them for nearly a month. I had noticed another charge from their company on March 28th for $49.99. Which I was surprised by. I checked the order and nowhere did it indicate a $49.99 charge. It had been nearly a month and I reached out to them to cancel the order because there was no update. And asked them about the charge and they stated its a membership fee. I stated that nowhere did it indicate that I was signing up for a membership, otherwise I would have never purchased from them. They were 3-4 days late to reply. They stated they would refund and then 2 weeks later, they refunded me for the for the $27.88 for the order itself and not the membership. Which to me was ridiculous and fraudulent. I had decided to cut my loss when they charge me another $9.99 for the membership again. I am now furious and need help getting my hard earned money back.

You're invited to watch 20 videos and you will get paid $200. Once you do that in order to withdraw the money you have to pay an upgrade fee of $10. Then they give you 40 videos to watch. My amount was up to $1400. I had to pay a processing fee of $20 to w/draw my funds. ( 13.95 & 23.95 as PayPal charges to put money in account) They tried to get me to pay $24 of bitcoin instead of using PayPal. Then when I w/drew my funds they said there was a wrong bank card # entered and that I was stupid for not checking my bank card #'s. They refused to release my funds & would'nt let me correct bank card #. In order to do that I had to pay a fee. They held onto my funds because I told them they were scammers. Once I asked for their lawyers name they canceled my withdrawal request and put the funds back into my account. And now you watch 40 videos. I still couldnt w/draw funds because they want a fee of $102 which they said was a Government tax & every citizen was obligated to fulfill. I argued with them. Now, I would have to watch 80 videos and pay a higher fee. Not going to happen. So, they scam you by not paying the original $200, charge fees, increase the # of videos to watch & charge more fees.

We complete the tasks between 11am-11pm. Completion of the tasks will give me approximately $200 daily plus commissions of 30%. I asked her if after 3 days of training do we have to pay any money to this platform? Her response was this isn't an investment platform. Just help the merchants by uploading the data. The 1st 3 days of training I am basically helping Quinn make more money as my pay is much less. During these 3 days, the balance went into a negative due to higher end products. Quinn was able to get a recharge so account came out of negative balance. On our own, there's no recharge. They expect us to cover whatever the negative balance is. They also charge a $30 account activation fee which will be given back to me upon the withdrawal of my funds. After covering the negative balance on my own( didnt do) I have to finish the tasks. I paid the $30 on 10/23/2025. On 10/24/2025, they awarded me a $50 new person bonus along with my $200 daily pay that they put into my account balance. I did first task & went right into negative.

The representative who answered instructed me to sit in front of my computer and requested remote access to my laptop. Trusting they were a legitimate technician, I granted them remote access. They interacted with my laptop and made various changes to the system. Afterward, they informed me that I needed to pay $768.00 to fix the issue. Unaware that this was a fraudulent operation, I provided my credit card information and paid the $768.00. My daughter later researched the phone number (888-394-3216) and confirmed that it is associated with a tech support scam.

I ordered 3 shirts for the July 4th 250th anniversary from AmericaVeteransMade.com June 8th. I wanted to have these shirts by the 4th of July. I watched the tracking of my shipment. The company was said to be in Pennsylvania, so great it could be to my state in 3 days even by the snail mail postal service. Instead it came July 7 - a entire month later. I had ordered larger sizes than I normally would because boutique shop clothing usually runs a bit smaller. I looked like a stuffed pig in all three items. I emailed them and they advised me to send them pics of the shirt front and back with measurements which I did. Their response was to give the shirt to someone or have the shirts altered locally or order a different size and of course they would give me a 5% discount on the next purchase. No refund just order more. These shirts were not made in the USA which they mislead in their website. The items were not cotton as described but some other manufactured fabric. Saying they support Veterans is their way of preying on people who really want to support Veterans.

Clicked on the link and it sent to what i thought was a real online merchant only to find out that it was a scam.. Cozya Home never came up in the TikTok shop like other companies.

I would absolutely NOT recommend this company! From the very beginning Kevin stated that if I was unhappy with any work they would fully refund my payment. After a few meetings/revision, there was very little progress made and what started in April dragged into June. I requested a refund and I was told I would receive it within two business days. I still have yet to receive the refund and Kevin has gone ghost with no responses. I have received two responses from Henry however, nothing that he has been telling me is actually what is happening. In June 19, I was told I’d received my refund in 2 business days. It is now July 10, this project started out back in late April/early may and I still have yet to get my refund.

Online Purchase - Jay Oster Trucking / impostor

I have shared this way to many times and no one does anything This scam is sophisticated and will succeed Fake website that is using the identity of a small independent trucker who doesn’t have a website. Uses his name and address and DOT#. They claim to have big ticket inventory and the prices listed are well below market. To make it look like they deal in everything their inventory incudes expensive farm equipment as well as RV motorhomes. The hook is they claim they offer a secure escrow account. I have talked to a man who calls himself James. I asked for their escrow license. He said they aren’t required to have one which is false. They advertise to make a purchase all you need to do is click the buy now button. You will be given instructions on how to wire money to the secure escrow. They will deliver whatever you purchase to your door free of charge. (This is why they have the DOT of the trucker). If you research the DOT you will see it belongs to a Jay Oster small trucking company. The DOT specifically only allows for shipping logs. I have spoken with Jay and confirmed this information. Jay is aware of the fake site and wants it to stop. Once you receive your item you have 5 days to inspect it. If you aren’t happy you can contact them and they will come and get it free of charge and you will get a full refund in 24 hrs. There is no inventory. There is no business. I was interested in purchasing 2 rv motorhomes listed for $164,500. These RV’s retail for well over $450,000. I contacted an rv inspector in the Belgrade MT area and asked if he would go to the addresses listed by the scam website to verify they had the RV’s. He was more than willing If course he reported back that there is no business or inventory anywhere. They want you to trust the escrow account which doesn’t exist. You transfer funds and once you do you will never hear from their again. I insisted to view the RV’s prior to paying. They gave me fake owner emails who also said they would love for me to view the rv’s personal but it isn’t possible because Jay Oster Trucking policy doesn’t allow it. They aren’t a dealership. They are an escrow account trucking business.

OK, so basically a few months ago I saw a bunch of ads for this website/app called gravy pass. I looked at it. It looked decent enough so I added it to my Apple wallet downloaded Monopoly go and started playing the game to earn money so the thing is that you have to get a certain level so overtime there’s gonna be bigger gap in between the levels and they usually pick games I feel like that you have to like pay for like extra terms or like things so you can like pass the levels quicker, which is already taking money out of my pocket even though I know the games are free, but there’s no purpose for that but anyway, I was playing the game for about 34 months and it was going good I earned overtime little by little 400 $and out of that $400 I spent a bit of it inside the game that I was also using my personal money for which came about $200 on my own personal money to be able to get the rewards so on the gravy pass would be like oh if you spend this amount of money, you’ll get double it back and you’ll get like daily bonuses, and all that stuff which was fine till I got to the bigger amounts of money the very last like level that I had to get to the earn $234 I passed it. I have screenshots all that stuff and I went to cash it on my Cash app card cause that’s how I get the money deposited right away so I don’t have to wait for anything. It said that they had paused my account so I emailed/texted the guy being like hey I see that my account says it’s paused. I don’t know exactly why but I would like to cash for my money and he said OK send screenshots of like evidence that you bought stuff game that you downloaded the game and all this other stuff which I did and he’s like OK. You should be able to get your rewards/redeem your money so I went back two days later because it didn’t work the first time it was still not working I texted him. I texted him emailed him this guy completely like is ignoring me and all I want is my money that I rightfully deserve because how are you gonna make a company and lie to the people who are putting money into it even if they’re not putting money into it that is just a blatant lie.

During the call, the caller attempted to fabricate details about my identity, listing credit card number that I have never owned. When I informed the caller that the debt on the cards that I have had before , all have been paid in full and the statute of limitations is up, the representative changed their story, falsely claiming the account was closed in 2022.I have personally verified through official records that this statement is completely untrue. After I challenged their claims. this company has call me back three times in rapid succession. On the final call, I stated that this was a scam call. The agent "Danielle" became defensive , she never provided verifiable, legal documentation of alleged debt. This company is using aggressive harassment tactics changing account timelines and utilizing psychological manipulation to pressure me into paying a fraudulent debt.

Counterfeit Product

The products pictured for sale on this website are completely different from what is delivered by the company. The products are cheaply made and labeled as quality materials when they are actually cheap polyester and plastic passing as leather. The sizes are not even close to being accurate. I ordered a small dress and it arrived so long it touches the floor and has no shape. I attempted to return since the sizing is off and the dress looks nothing like the picture. The company would not accept a refund and instead offered for me to pick something else from their website to replace my original order. I agreed and ordered a handbag labeled "leather" and what arrived was a cheap plastic bag that is so ugly I can not even give it as a gift, looks nothing like the picture on the website. This is false advertising and Alamodara will not accept the product back as a return and is again offering for me to pick another product from their website as a replacement. I just want my money back but they won't offer a refund for false advertising and selling crappy products.

Worthless Problem-solving Service

I booked this hairstyle through a reputable 3rd party booking service called Booksy. They clearly do not verify their cosmetologist which is a big red flag. This hairstylist was even promoted and recommended. I booked an appointment, and the stylist reached out through text. Asked for deposit to book appointment it was 68% of the service another red flag. The biggest red flag and I did not pay attention was them asking me to send money through paypal and use the friends and family send option which means my payment was not protected if anything happened, like not receiving a service. Once I sent the payment, I received a text message the next day, stating there was a chemical leak in the building and no one was allowed in the building for 24hrs. This message was sent at 10a on Thursday. My appointment was Friday at 2:45p. Giving enough time for the restrictions to be lifted. The hairstylist kept insisting on refunding me and processing the refund. Blaming booksy and myself for the issue they were having. Even sending me an old screenshot from booksy chat customer service. This is when the hairstylist asked me to Pay the remainder of my balance to secure my appointment on Saturday. When I declined out of comfortability and ridiculousness. I told her why would I pay for the full service when I haven't received it and something just didnt seem right with the business. The hairstylist the proceeded to claim she would refund me, and of course she didn't. I was blocked. This is def a scam and booksy doesn't verify anything. Not even if they're licesned. be careful.

This website presents itself as a competent and high quality business for fashion apparel. The items online look high quality and chic and worth the amount of money being charged. They showcase on the site a 30 day refund policy. While the site seems to be in Australia, in reality they are drop shipping items from China that are very poor quality. The fabrics are cheap and itchy, the seams are uneven, there’s no lining or quality to the garments, and the colors and fabrics do not match the online photos. The company makes it very complicated to initiate a return, requiring multiple emails and threats to get a return address, then provides an international return address and tells you that since the return shipping is so expensive you might as well keep the items with some discount applied. The international return address makes no sense as the origin of the shipment on their packaging shows as Vernon, CA.

Other customers need to know this is a trap, and once they put through a payment for the initial $1.00 fee, they “gotcha” a without your authorization enroll you in a monthly plan. Once I saw the scam, I immediately told them to cancel the look up of the initial request. The agent said, we will refund your initial cost, to which I said, “ I never authorized a monthly deduction.

This company allows you to “update” your plan on their website. They do not have a phone number, their chat does not work, and they will only communicate by email. When I sent them my current plan they said that the screen I was looking at was for informational purposes only and that their system showed more products than what I had selected. They refused to honor their mistake and will not refund me the money for the items I did not purchase. They make it impossible to “manage” your subscription once you sign up which constitutes theft in my opinion. Horrible customer service. All they do is tell you they can’t see anything on their end. Which means their system is broken and in my opinion setup to make the customers fail and pay for products they do not want. I had read several reviews with similar complaints and thought maybe it was just someone with a bad experience but now I can see they have a pattern of doing this to their customers. Horrible business practices.

Online Purchase - Online Gift Card Exchange Scam

Gift card trade-in site with a well-built GUI that seems trustworthy. It mimics other legitimate services that pay a percentage of a gift card’s value (in my case 90%). I sold 4 $250 Best Buy gift cards that I received as a gift and they took off with the money. I was supposed to receive $225 for each gift card. It’s a sophisticated scam because there are many sites that do, indeed, purchase gift cards at a competitive rate. Says it’s owned by “Three Amigos - JEB LLC” at the bottom. I should have known better—hindsight is 20/20 because I can now tell that the site was completely made using AI. The site is still ACTIVE and taking people’s money—it NEEDS TO BE SHUT DOWN.

On or about June 19I purchased an iScooter iX3 800W off-road electric scooter using a promotional code advertised on an Instagram account that appeared to be affiliated with the product. After payment, I received a tracking number that has not shown any meaningful updates for more than ten days. The email address that sent the order information is a no-reply address and is different from the customer support email listed on the official iScooter website. The website through which I placed the order is no longer accessible, and I have been unable to contact the seller despite multiple attempts. I also contacted Apple Cash and my bank, but neither was able to provide a refund. Based on these circumstances, I believe I may have been the victim of a fraudulent transaction. I am requesting a full refund of the amount paid and any assistance available in resolving this matter. I have the full file saved for both emails that I received as well as screenshots of me trying to access the website, etc. *** *** **** **** ** ****** *** ********** ** **** ** *** ***** ****** ***** *** ** ** ***** **** ***** ** ***** ** * *** ******* ***** ***** *** ** ****

I refused and wanted to speak to a manager. Conveniently unavailable. I asked to speak to another person in the office and was told not possible.

On the morning of May 16, Alicia called me and stated she was sick and could not perform the agreed-upon chef services for the event. I immediately requested a refund of the $647. She told me she would repay me once her husband returned. Between May 17 and May 23, [year], I contacted Alicia more than five times requesting the refund. Each time, she gave a different reason for why she could not pay me at that moment. On [date], I attempted to request the $647 through Venmo and discovered her account had been deactivated. I am filing this report in New York, where I reside and where the transaction occurred. I understand Alicia and Derek Thompson are based in Michigan.

When we tried to ask them "why" and what the problem was, and simply obtain information regarding what they were stating, they became extremely rude, hostile, and intimidating, refused to give us any information, but instead harassed us, telling us that we would see them in court, and that we better show up, but refused to give us information about the court date, time, and reason. We tried multiple times to call the number to try and resolve the issue, but they did not want to discuss, which was odd because they where the ones calling us and leaving us voicemails to discuss this issue. They went to the extent of stating that we allegedly stated that our lawyer was the one who would contact them, when we said no such thing, and they kept stressing that they were taking us to court, and that we would see them then, but failed to give us any information in regards to this alleged court case and date.

Sweepstakes/Lottery/Prizes

Lucky Club is a fraudulent gambling-style app that I downloaded through a website link. The app claims users can win real money and withdraw through PayPal, CashPay, or USDT. After depositing money and playing, I attempted to withdraw my winnings. Every withdrawal was blocked. The app repeatedly claimed my account bank or PayPal information was invalid, even though my information was correct. The app uses scripted customer service messages, including foreign-language responses, and never provides real help. Each time I tried to withdraw, the app reset my “betting requirements,” forcing me to keep wagering my balance instead of allowing a payout. This appears intentionally designed to prevent users from ever receiving money. The app does not provide a phone number, email, or legitimate business information. It operates through the website sdk.ads1ddcc.com, which is connected to the app’s login and withdrawal system.I am submitting screenshots showing the app’s error messages, withdrawal failures, and deceptive behavior. I am reporting this scam to warn others and help prevent more victims.

Trans union and Equifax finished their June update and your file came back with a preapproval for $41,250 hardship personal loan. No hard credit check. Same day funding available. Payments around $436 a month. What most people do with this preapproval is consolidate everything. Visa, store cards, any balance carrying a high rate. One payment, lower rate, cards back to zero. It's just a cleaner way to run the finances, and honestly, a good move heading into the 2nd half of the year. Call me at 833 806-0351 when you get a minute. I'll give you the straight picture on exactly what you'd qualify for. Preapproval window closes tomorrow, Friday at 3 PM. Again, 833-806-0351. Have a good morning.

Two days after, your card gets charged 19.99 every week. It gives you an option to cancel the subscription and then when you get the email to do so, there is always an issue with the server so you can not actually cancel the weekly $19.99 subscription.

Then the switch happens with ‘email confirmation’ and no, they don’t ask you to actually confirm having received the information. But it is switched to $19 every TWO WEEKS. I would have NEVER agreed to a $38/month app with sectioned and disjointed stories and additional adds as well?? This is feeling smarmier by the moment

Investment - Azza Miner LLC

Here’s a revised version with the corrected loss amount: I lost approximately $7,500 after investing in what appeared to be a legitimate investment business. I initially invested $1,500, then another $1,500, and later invested additional funds, bringing my total investment to approximately $7,500. I found the company through YouTube bloggers who promoted the investment opportunity. They claimed to operate a business in Denver, Colorado, and I verified that they had an LLC registration and a listed office address, which made the business appear legitimate. At first, everything seemed trustworthy. I received payouts and earned approximately $1,500, which increased my confidence in the investment. However, after I invested more money, the company suddenly stopped responding. They disappeared, I could no longer contact them, and I was unable to withdraw my remaining funds. I believe the business used early payouts to build trust and encourage larger investments before disappearing with investors’ money. My total loss is approximately $7,500. I am submitting this report to help warn others and prevent them from becoming victims of the same scam.

Fake Invoice/Supplier Bill - ** IMPOSTER** Reliant Home Coverage

Letter was sent with my name mispelled and reference:"Lender Info :Ref 2 Acquiation Tr" which looked like a check for $199 but was listed as "Allocated Waiver". "This letter is to inform you about an important matter regarding the property at (my address) secured by your current lender which is Ref 2 Acquiation Tr. We reserve the right to revoke allocated waiver after 7 days of receiving this notice. Please call IMMEDIATELY as this will be our final attempt to notify you." Appeared to have spelled "Acquisition" wrong, and the tone of the letter seemed somewhat threatening...as if my property was in danger of some action. I called the number to see if I could get them to identify themselves and a male with no foreign accent...speaking good English said he was from Reliant Home....either Care or Coverage and claimed to be trying to sell home coverage. This was the SECOND letter I received from them.

Rental - Apartment Rental Scam

We were looking for an apartment in DC because my daughter starts school there in the fall. We used apartmentlist.com and found a 1 bdrm apartment. We arranged to have my son, who lives in DC look at the apratment. The location was right, the price was right, but my son could not actually see the unit becuasue Daniel D. Tapper (owner) was out of town. We signed the lease and wired a deposit. I immedicately became anxious because Daniel D Tapper responded to my deposit saying there was an additional security required. I put him off and promised to make that payment when we made the agreed final inspection. He had all sorts of issues while out of town and finally declared that the current tenant had decided to stay so he would provide a refund. He claimed his accountant made and error and sent checks totaling $17,000 and asked that I deposit them and just wire him the difference ($15,000). The checks he mailed were obviously fraudulent. I had emailed Apartmentlist.com to check on Daniel D. Tapper at the very beginning of the process. I got nothing of use back from them. No one should use this site. Apparently, Apartmentlist.com has no clue and could care less who they are setting you up with for an apartment. The same unit I attempted to rent was still listed after I warned them.

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 and all-state issued IDs 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 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.

Online Purchase

I was victim of fraud and this site was one of the fraud charges. Contacted them told.them what happened and they refused to refund money. The site is ran by one person and is associated with a continued problem of many people reporting it on their accounts that did not authorize it. In addition it has one person running it an addrsss to a ups po box and it has emblems and logos of visa and mastercard and they are black and white and are not clickable as per real validation and endorsement would be by these vendors. The person firthermore was haggling partial payments to which i refused because fraud is fraud and deserves reimbursement. They claim that it is impossible because they are secure but somehow accidental charges are happening to so many complaining to your bureau and they defined secure as they have all the information associated with card to enter in manually. When feaud happens they usually have all that as it is needed to complete the fraud regardless and i asked how this criteria is definiton of security and guarantee if not even our banks are impervious to fraudsters then how can they be? My bank traced the ip and used device and also checked my regisrerd devices and still i am told by them i had to of signed up because all my information was entered. Clearly that makes no sense as for valid grounds to say that since i know i didnt. The site itself when i looked it up seems to be a streaming site yet not sure for what and it offers random things that dont exactly make sense together such as gaming and astrology? When i inquired as to what their service really is i was told its a ACCESS VALIDATED SECURE STREAMING. I was like what does that even really mean? Most all sites are access secure due to needing credentials to sign in so i dont get what exactly it is they are selling essentially and it isnt anything i ever heard of. It is weird that one person is answering all phone calls live chats and emails. I contacted all 3 and got same person. I feel that upon investigating the site and seeing the online complaints of others saying they too have had a charge from this company they did not authoirze that there is no accidents. When i first contacted and said i had fraud on my account and that i need to get it refunded the first thing i was told was MAYBE YOU SIGNED UP ON ACCIDENT IT HAPPENS ALL THE TIME. i found that strange especially more we spoke i am being told how secure they are and i had to of signed up yet security how can so many accidents happen? In next response i am told it is so secure a person has to intentionally enter all their billing information in in order to sign up. I asked well how would accidents happen then? It does not make sense. I have all the screenshots and emails from this person and i just feel they need to be looked into. They do not seem like a legit company and they are associated to which they admit with accidental charges to a lot of people to point you can find tons of them by typing in site and scam behind it and whole online complaints come up. The site makes no sense the only thing in menu is login or sign up and one person is running it and oddly address is to a ups po box in a shopping center. They said we yet only one person is answring all the contacts available the logos for visa and mastercard are black and white and not clickable to see their policy like on a truly endorsed sitw would be. The person offers random half payments and offered 24 then 29 dollars and usually they either do or dont refund. Not a weird random amount? I just feel this site screams scam and not legit. I am beginning to think only customers who have heard of it are the ones finding it on their banking statement randomly. I dont get what the streaming service they offer even is. It is not, as i would say, normal in sense of it going together. It seems like a weird combination to offer and it is vague and a couple pictures on the site that dont really show much but random people sitting on a couch one with his headset on. The things that they have to offer dont really go together which is why i didnt even really know what was being offered or what the site was really for. I just felt like not only did i become victim of fraud on my account but these people or one person i should say seems to not be on up and up in first place and is a scam too. Thank you for reading my long message i just wanted to be as thorough as possible. I have the emails and live chat responses too if they are needed. This just doesnt seem like a credible site and they do not seem like fhey are honest. Also with so many out there online saying they have been robbed or they have had this same charge randomly on their banking and didnt authorize it i doubt all of us are making it up and too many accidents are not accidents at all. Also claiming such security accidents wouldnt be possible and the refund policy they claim they do not honor to a fraud victim so people who sign up on purpose probably really dont get refunded. I dont know what the accident people get. Either way this site needs looked into please.

Rental - Richard's Homes

I was recommended by my agency to look for temporary housing on the website Roomi. I was in need of a short-term, three-month lease. As I was coming to Seattle to help out at Harborview Medical Center for three months. The scammer's name is Richard Schenkel. They currently still have a property on the website for a one-bedroom, one bath. They continue to advertise a property that I am not sure actually exists in Washington. I completed all the proper steps to proceed through. In the end, I made a payment, which I was informed it was for the first month of rent and the security deposit, totaling two thousand dollars. After they had received the payment with my information, they attempted to request even more money, with an additional two thousand dollars, totaling of four thousand dollars. Once I denied this request and informed them that I was to not follow through, because there was no way I would be able to provide that much money. The scammer stopped responding and never gave me a refund, even though they previously stated they would. Despite my reporting the scammer on the website, Roomi has not reached out to me or taken any action. I do want to report this individual in hopes that something is done. But if not, to at least warn others, like me.

Trans Union and Equifax finished their June update, and your file came back with a pre-approval for a $41,250 hardship personal loan. No hard credit check, same day funding available. Payments around $436 a month. What most people do with this pre-approval is consolidate everything. Visa, store cards, any balance carrying a high rate. One payment, lower rate, cards back to zero.

I purchased a product from this company, and it took weeks because they claimed it had to be "custom made," even though the product was manufactured in China. When I finally received it, the quality was poor, and it didn't work for what I needed. I contacted customer service, and the entire process was slow and frustrating. Eventually, I sent the product back, and they offered to remake it. After receiving the replacement, which was once again the same Chinese made product, it still didn't work properly. I had to send it back a second time, paying for return shipping out of my own pocket because, for some reason, the returns had to be sent to Canada. I then requested a refund. Despite paying around $700 for the product, I only received a 50% refund because they claimed it was "custom made," even though it was manufactured in China. This was, without question, the worst business I've ever dealt with.

I tried to purchase pool chemicals from the site. After put items in my cart , I added personal information, debit card information and selected purchase. Then a box popped up saying that I would receive a text message with a code to enter the code to make my purchase. When it got to text it was from my bank with the code and a message saying that if a company or website was asking for it not to give it to them because it was a scam. I didn’t put the code in and Google search the company. After reading some I went back to the open tab of the site to get screenshots and they had empty the cart and my information. They have my debit card and personal information so I went to my bank. They canceled my debit card and told me that code was to get into my bank account.

I responded on behalf of Alpacas of Oklahoma which is a non-profit organization, of which I am a Board Member.

Online Purchase - Sky States LLC

I was interested in attending a class for Artificial Intelligence with Sky States. I did not have the tuition and was transferred to obtain this money by gaining cash cards with " Shef Solutions LLC". While on the video call with Shef Solutions an individual instructed me to apply for as many as 5 Cash Cards. He helped to obtain many cards approval with instructions for each step. This also included Pay Pal for $800 which I have disputed. There was privacy information on this call that should not have been shared. I ended the both the Video and phone calls. I realized that getting cash cards for tuition is unusual and looked into the company. Shef Solutions has terrible reviews from other people who claim fraud from this company in India with a fictional address in Wyoming There is no way to cancel they have invalid e-mail address. I really think this is a scam and fraudulent activity to be on a Video call from overseas with anyone while obtaining financing. In further, claiming that getting Cash cards for college tuition has got to be a criminal activity. I feel betrayed by "Sky States" for my trying to gain a certificate while they transferred me to Shef Solutions LLC for this fraudulent activity. I have changed my financial institution password, cancelled my debit card and obtained a new one. Subsequently, my wife had fraudulent charges on her debit card. We have disputes for all but are not getting the support we need.

Lakeside group tried to call again this morning but left a voicemail saying I was being turn ed in for not paying 100 a month for 8 months and having to go to court the man’s name is Mike Mackenzie. I blocked the number but they will try and call back but it says on caller ID from another parish. They keep changing their number but still says 985 when calling. They keep trying to harass me three or four times a day. One lady said I had to pay 500 dollars or go to court and that they will garish my disability pay a month and seize any assets that I have. I keep blocking them but they keep calling with different people and phone numbers.

Online Purchase

I placed an order for artificial Boston ferns, from sideargue, a company promoting on Facebook, back in April. As of today, July 9, 2026, I have not received the order. I have emailed their support line numerous times and they keep giving me the run around. They say the package was delivered and they give me a tracking number to check with my UPS store. I check, and they can’t find the tracking number in their system. They suggest I check with my local post office to see if it was accidentally delivered there. I check with the post office and am told that the tracking number is a bogus number. I then emailed sideargue.com customer service again to let them know the tracking is untraceable. They then give me another tracking number. I take the new tracking number to my UPS store and again, they cannot find that number in their system and suggest I check with the post office. I check with my post office and they are able to track the new number, but the new number is addressed to a different person and different address. I again email sideargue.com customer service, and request a refund since I have not received the package. They keep telling me the package has been delivered, but it has not been delivered to me. They keep asking for the same information, ie, verification of my address, have I checked with my carrier, have I checked with family and neighbors to make sure they didn’t get it. I have answered their questions numerous times, and have told them each time that I have not received the package and they keep telling me the package has been delivered. I’m posting this in hopes that no one else orders from this company as they practice unfair business practices, and scam customers out of their money.

voicemail left: 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, it’s 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.

The message stated that legal documents were being sent to my residence regarding a legal matter, and I needed to be there to sign them. I called the number back, and the gentleman asked to speak to my father. I asked him what the matter was about, and he stated that a complaint was made about my father. I then said, "My father has been dead for five years," to which he replied, "Great, thank you" and tries to hang up. I stop him and ask him what is the name of legal firm, to which he tells me and I ask him to spell it out and he does and then hangs up. The whole thing felt like he was fishing for social security numbers that have been inactive, (even though he never asked for anything more than what I stated.) It just felt like he needed verification that my father was dead.

Counterfeit Product - OLD SKOOL PAVING

This group of people were stopping at homes with black top driveways. The neighbors next door didn't answer the door and these men seen me mowing the lawn. One man approached me and they reported they seal driveways. They looked at my driveway and said they would do it for $2500, I said no and so he dropped the price to $2000! I said no and I came back with $1000 (which now I know that was ridiculously high) and he agreed to do it. While they were working I noticed they didn't have all the tools required to do the job correctly, so I gave them my tools to use (blower, push broom and a flat shovel) to blow and sweep the dirt away and to cut sod away from the blacktop. They ended up taking my shovel and broom and I had said the sealant doesn't look even and they said, "When it dries after a couple of hours it'll look fine!" Well it didn't and it took a couple more days to dry because the product wasn't applied evenly. I paid them and said to take the tax out of the $1000 that I paid them. After I found out that my tools were taken I called AJ Kelly and he told me he brought them back! Not true! After several attempts calling him, he said, "I'll send you $100!" that was another lie. Anyways he got way with a terrible job and stealing my tools. ALSO KNOWN TO USE THE NAME "GYPSY BOY PAVING"!

The photos on the website showed a padded, hand-quilted fabric travel bag with embroidered flowers & peace-sign motifs and a fabric lining with side pocket. I paid for 2 of these, which were to be shipped with cloth dust bags, hand-written care instructions, and a numbered authenticity tags. What was shipped to me were 2 thinly-padded machine quilted bags with no embroidered motifs, flimsy polyethylene liners, and none of the accessories listed. The website "guaranteed" a full refund if you returned any unsatisfactory purchases. On arrival of the poorly-packaged bags, shipped by Spotify from an address in California, I contacted the email address listed on the website & was given an address in Hong Kong to which I was to mail the bags at my expense. They would then look them over & decide whether to give me a refund. I STRONGLY urge all shoppers to avoid purchasing anything from this website and alleged American company.

The reason why I'm calling is because I have some documents that are being tied directly to your social and all state issued IDs that you may possess. It also says on here that an asset search is also being conducted too. So if you received 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 third 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 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."

We received notice from the CT Better Business Bureau stating that a consumer filed a complaint against us (below). The consumer stated that they applied for a position with our company on Indeed, interviewed, and then was asked to send bank account information. The consumer was suspect and therefore filed the complaint. The consumer provided the email addresses used by the fraudster to contact the consumer/applicant. These emails are not associated with anyone at our company. We do not have any active job postings and are not hiring. I spoke to the communications director at CT BBB who notified our company of the consumer complaint to verify this is a legitimate issue, and we are working with them to notify the public of the scam.

"I applied on indeed and they emailed me to do an interview via microsoft teams. They offered me a data entry position and sent a offer letter. It all looked fake. Thats what made me look on the BBB website. They used 2 different emails. [email protected] and [email protected]. They asked for my bank name but they didnt ask for the numbers.

This was the first red flag because I thought I was calling a local company and she didn’t know where my town was. The guy gave me his cell number which I googled and found this report. My brother called “Stephen” and he answered and told him he had the wrong person. When my brother mentioned the plumbing job he changed his story and put him on the phone with another guy who seemed suspicious.

i "purchased three hats for $34.00....the hats are of poor quality but I would not have bothered to send them back for refund... except they also sent me a Trump gold coin and 2$ bill which I did not order. Then, they charged my account three times - 39.95, 34.25 and 37.90. Their phone number 402-935-7733 says "You have reached an unassigned number at Omaha VA" and disconnects. Their 844-200-4180 number says "This number is not valid" and disconnects. Paypal has helped me get back $34.25 so far.

Online Purchase - Raven

I ordered a garage port advertised on TikTok for $29 and some change. I purchased two units for a total of $62.97 using Apple Pay through a website linked from the ad, raven.com. I received confirmation emails from raven.com stating my products would be shipped. Subsequently, I received an automated support email with a fake tracking link. I contacted support via the email provided on the website, and they assured me the items were on the way or had attempted delivery. When I inquired further, they claimed the driver had a flat tire and that the items would be reshipped. I followed up again, but they only responded with a generic message saying the delivery hadn't arrived yet. Have you checked other areas? I have security cameras on my property, and no delivery attempts have been made. Additionally, my Apple Pay receipt shows the name ‘ dabbz, travel, smart,' which does not make sense as that is unrelated and indicates multiple different entities involved. Despite multiple refund requests, I have asked for refunds multiple times and they keep being redirected without resolution.

Online Purchase - Cartpanda

I purchased a "weight loss" product Call Gelatide using my CC. The product did not work for me and it was advertised for a FULL MONEY BACK offer. I contacted the name on my CC and it was sold through a website called CARTPANDA. I emailed support@cartpanda and asked for my money back. Their representative, Madela , emailed me back stating that I could take one of 2 offers: keep the product and get 50% of my money back OR send everything unused back, and receive a FULL REFUND of $311.00. They guaranteed a FULL REFUND if I complied to all requests. I chose to send everything back to the address provided and did so. Then the "rules" became very strict. I was to take a picture of the package at the UPS store complete with postal ID, take a picture of the receipt itself and send everything back to Cartpanda, which I did! Then after what they called "reviewing my claim", they told me they were having difficulty with crediting my American Express CC and then asked for: my bank name, routing number, account number, and all personal information! I contacted them immediately and refused to give out ANY personal or banking information. I also called AMX and asked if there was ever a problem with a merchant "crediting back" a charge. The answer was "Never. AMX ALWAYS credits back all charges and could not do it any other way!" I then responded to Cartpanda's representative, Madela, by email telling her it was fraudulent and asked a 7th time for my money back. I have repeatedly sent emails to which they refuse to respond. I'm contacting you for support and hoping others will avoid this company. Just today, they sent me a text from 833-345-6760 asking me if I wanted to purchase MORE of their lousy product!! I can send copies of my communication with them if you want it. Can you help me?

Debt Collections

Wife and I received call from a representative from the legal department. That's exactly what you hear if you call back. That's how they introduced themself. Caller stated I was being sued for property. After further discussion and referral to John Cole, person representing Westbridge Litigation Group (WLG) said I had outstanding balance of $10,237 due in full. This was for a CITIBANK Platinum Card that I supposedly got in 2015 and used through 2019. I was told that I never made payments going on three years. So here we are seven years later and Im now being approached. After making not one payment. Letter sent to my email during call listed a case #, original creditor, original account no, total amount due, and settlement amount. The detail information we received had a James Price signoff. He is referred to as a mediation coordinator/client services. But it was John Cole who my wife actually spoke too that sent letter to our email. Neither were attorneys. My wife reversed lookup the phone number, litigation group and its address. No such Westbridge Litigation Group (WLG) exists at the California address. The phone number is a landline - with no associated name or company - associated to a burner phone company in Bartlville, Oklahoma. Even though the area code is for my county. Initially in the call to me I was asked if I would be home to receive and sign for the legal suit. I wasn't home so told them to leave it. They said they could not. Told them to text me or give me website. They could not. By the way, the electronic letter signed by James Price was created from a document creating app site and not from WLG . Letter has a pretty letterhead but does not look officious. I was told that I never made payments going on three years. So here we are seven years later and Im now being approached. The detail information we received when referred to a mediation coordinator/client services John Cole. Again, not an attorney. I reversed lookup the phone number, litigation group and its address. No such Westbridge Litigation Group (WLG) exists at the address. The phone number is a landline - with no associated name or company - to a burner phone company in Bartlville, Oklahoma. Even though the area code is for my county. Initially in the call I was asked if I would be home to receive and sign for the legal suit. I wasn't home so told them to leave it. They said they could not. Told them to text me or give me website. They could not. What leads me to believe this is a scam: It's concerning that they had my and my wife's name, address, phone and even my social security number. Weird that they felt free to tell my wife this information. But they said that I had a Citibank Platinum Card with a 10k limit. I never did between 2013-2019 because I was at the time formally, financially in Chapter 11 bankruptcy. The only card I was eligible for was an Ollo Card with an annual $150 fee, for a maximum limit of $500. Cole then told my wife that I had fraudulently gotten the card. Would I do that using my actual name, address and social security card? He also said I got the card after bankruptcy. Not possible. In 2015 I was not even halfway through my responsibility with Chapter 11. I also said no such credit card or non payment issue ever appeared in any of my three credit reports. Ever. Not a 30, 60, or 90 day late payment reported. Cole said it's because WLG wiped it off my credit history when they started collections procedures. Am I mistaken. Isn't them posting to my credit report a main tool for collecting unpaid delinquent bills? He said it would be used if this went to court and they would attempt to collect all 10+ thousand dollars. They even said this was their second attempt to contact me. I do not understand why not since they seem to have my contact information. They were pushing for me to pay the $2288.40 on the spot. BTW, they said the suit was filed with my county, which is Monroe. Having previously been sued as part of my bankruptcy proceedings in 2012-2013, I was familiar with the process and contact of my current history. It showed no such suit and none since 2013. And also we never received a Citibank letter saying we were delinquent in any payments or we were being referred to a creditor. In my county I would have received a note in my mail box to appear at my post office to sign and receive registered mail. At worst, sheriff’s office would sand deliver the suit. And I supposedly had this card since 2015. And never made one payment. He said it would be used if this went to court and they would attempt to collect all 10+ thousand dollars. Also, in looking at all my Chapter 11 documents, since I didn't own a Citibank Card, it of course wouldn't have been listed. Also, when Cole spoke to my wife he mentioned us being in Chapter 7 bankruptcy. We were Chapter 11 and corrected him. The purpose was to pay back what we owed over a longer period of time, without incurring additional debt. Cole seemed to have an answer to most of our questions. But could not unequivocally answer why we never saw this delinquency in registered letter. Or appear on our credit report or affect the rating which has been is currently in the mid 700s in all three credit reports since rebuilding our credit in 2020. I searched Google and Google AI to see if this is a common scam. And yes, this is a common scam. First of all a suit would come hand delivered, by sheriff’s office for example, or email. But never by a phone call. So I am filing this lengthy description of my experience to inform others. I am also filling with Reddit and the the Federal Trade Commission. I hope the BBB and FTC can push back. We saw in our research that this WLG tried similar scams at other consumers. Attaching a letter which is supposed to be official but is not a legal document but created by a document app on line.

Romance

It was difficult to distinguish fake accounts to actual accounts. I was bebopping around on dating websites, and was swiping away. I swiped on one or two profiles and didn't think anything of it. After, I was at work and I observed one of the females or suspected females walk into my workplace... nowadays you can't really be sure. Anyways, they got an application, and was hired. I didn't really think much about it, however, they began speaking with me more than other people at the worksite. I knew I recalled seeing their profile on the dating site. I was a supervisor at my employment, and they were below me as they were starting out. It was an awkward situation to be in considering there wasn't a clear explanation. We didn't talk prior to them becoming employed, and we didn't match. I began thinking as time went on if it was a coincidence or if they took the time to find out where I worked, and spent time to get hired just to establish a relationship or if they truly were interested in employment. In the workplace, I knew there were rules and regulations regarding employees and supervisors having a relationship. Furthermore, everyone in the workplace exchanged numbers with one another to be able to contact each other for work related reasons. I started receiving messages from them more often, and conversed with them regularly. However, I felt as if it was more of a casual friendship rather than something that would actually go somewhere, however, I wasn't sure how they felt, and didn't really discuss that over text. We never really went out together or dated either other than engaging in conversation over lunch break. However, thinking about perspectives, putting myself in other employees shoes, it could have very well been perceived that we were in some sort of unprofessional relationship. I was never spoken to by HR or any other management about it. However, wasn't sure if others had mentioned it to them. It was one of those types of situations, where any kind of actions or misuse of words or in the perspective of HR, special treatment, could result in punitive actions. I avoided why, and continued with work to avoid legal error, and/or termination that could result as a conflict. I never brought it up in conversation as I didn't think it was necessary, but it still had me wondering why. You hear about incidents where others like to catfish with malicious intent. I never made that determination if that were the case or not, nor did I want to find out. I didn't really know true intention behind their actions or why. It was one of those double jeopardy kind of deals where if you're wrong, you're wrong bad, and I didn't want to disturb the workplace environment by creating issues within.

Home Improvement - Kodiak Home Pros

Kodiak Home Pros advertised that they did dryer vent cleaning for $79. When they arrived, they said there was a clog and charged $300+ to clear the clog. After being paid $300+, they left and the dryer issue was still occurring. I hired another company to come out who indicated the problem was not solved, the vent was not cleaned, and the hose was actually disconnected during whatever service Kodiak pretended to provide. In short, Kodiak not only didn't fix the problem but actually made it worse. I then had to pay the new company $400+ to fix the original problem and the exacerbated problem.

I had to cancel my card, and am currently waiting for a new card to arrive. After research, this sounds like a common issue with Wiser:Bite-Sized Learning App does. They randomly charge people who have cancelled/no longer have an account the $40.80. They attempted to charge my card twice the amount of $40.80. Seriously wiserapp? I reached out and was offered no apology or solution. Just fear my bank information was jeopardized. Valerie Cordell

Travel/Vacation/Timeshare - Online Travel Booking Scam

Through WithJoy/Nuitee, I was charged nearly $3,000 for 3nights for a hotel in Charleston that I booked for a wedding (through WithJoy wedding website). I called Nuitee to adjust the reservation from 3 nights to 2 nights (which was also a disaster - they created two additional reservations in my name...) but did not refund me immediately. Upon departing the hotel after my stay, they provided me an invoice for just over $1,000. Nuitee only refunded me for the additional night i had paid for (at the $1,000 per night rate) but the hotel was only charging ~$500/night rate. As in the attachment, there was an agent preferred rate included, however Nuitee was charging me nearly double and refused to refund me any more than the 1 night i cancelled. I understand that they may be entitled to a fee of some sort to make money, but charging me nearly double to book through them (which should be at a preferred rate for the wedding), is egregious and feels deceptive.

Online Purchase - The Hills Nashville

The Website for Hills Nashville appears to be a clothing store in the US. They advertised free returns noted as a hassle-free return policy. I purchased a dress for $49.95 and didn’t care for it. Inquiring about returning I was told I would have to pay overseas shipping costs I went back-and-forth via email and they offered to pay me 30% back. If I kept the item. The company hasan address listed as Dover Delaware, which does not appear to be a real address. I finally agreed to get the 30% back as they offered. They said they started the process, but I haven’t seen any money refunded and they haven’t corresponded back to me when questioned. This appears to be a dropship company operating out of another country possibly China and is scamming people to believe that this is a legitimate US company, but the clothing is cheap and not what they advertise .

Counterfeit Product - RITANAKI

Complaint: Misleading Advertising – Product Not as Advertised I purchased two artificial hanging flower arrangements from RITANAKI after viewing their website, which consistently advertises beautiful, fully assembled hanging flower baskets. Every product image shows complete hanging baskets, and the product page even includes photos and videos of a person removing what appears to be a complete hanging flower basket from a shipping box. At no point on the product page does the company clearly disclose that the hanging basket is not included. Based on the advertising, I reasonably believed I was purchasing complete hanging flower baskets. Instead, I received only loose artificial flower picks. These flower picks cannot be displayed as shown on the website without purchasing separate hanging baskets. The website prominently states, "If the products doesn't meet your expectations, we will issue a refund ??." However, when I contacted the company, they refused to honor that promise. Instead, they offered only a 20% partial refund or required me to return the items to China at my own expense, with return shipping costing approximately $20 USD—making a return impractical. In my opinion, the company's advertising is misleading because it creates the clear impression that customers are purchasing complete hanging flower baskets when they are actually receiving only flower picks. There is no clear disclosure anywhere on the product page stating that the baskets shown throughout the advertisements, photos, and videos are not included. I am filing this complaint to warn other consumers to carefully review this company's advertising before making a purchase. Had the website clearly stated that only the flower picks were included, I would not have purchased these items.

We had an issue with a Wayfair order so we called customer service. a number that came up on google. We described the issue to the individual and he indicated he would need to access our account in order to help as he would be sending out requests through our Wayfair account. he said we would need to download an app that would allow him to do this and while he worked the screen would be blacked out. while he worked on our computer and we couldn't see what he was doing, he was providing details about what he was supposedly doing example: I'm sending out a request now to the supplier to see how much they will authorize a credit for, you will get a code on your phone please give it to me so that I can proceed. The call lasted about 25 minutes and I got 4 codes on my phone which I gave to him. when he was done I confirmed what I should expect to see in the next couple of days and he provided details of updates that would be provided. the next day, I didn't see any credits on my credit card and no action via email or via my Wayfair account so at this point, we knew something wasn't right. We searched installed apps on the laptop and saw the one that allowed him to access the laptop and we deleted it. next we searched browsing history and say that when he gained control of the laptop the first thing he did was log into my wayfair account where he was able to provide details about my order which was basically a distraction to keep us busy as he tried to set up pay pal and mastercard click to pay with my credit card. he visited many sites, target, costco, off gamers and several others attempting to buy virtual gift cards. luckily he wasn't successful in this case. in my gmail account I can see he set up an offgamers account and attempted a purchase of $285.00 but, it was cancelled and on the other sites can see he was trying to buy $500.00 virtual gift cards.

Worthless Problem-solving Service - Locksmith Scam

This is a bait and switch scam along with google ad / lead generation manipulation. They flood their business page with tons of false 5 star reviews so they show up first. They were contacted for lockout service and offered a small 60 dollar visit fee. Based on other complaints, that “visit fee” is a number that they seem to make up. Upon arrival, they start working / exploring the issue without saying that is part of their quoted price. Then after mere moments of “work,” they did not actually resolve the issue but demanded $800. This is severe price gouging and extortion. Additionally they are operating without a license. Every locksmith operating out of NYC needs to have a DWCP license, which they do not. They’ve manipulated google searches / algorithm and preying on victims who are vulnerable and in an emergency (lockout). When I reached out to the company after realizing the scam, they start getting aggressive and angry, denying any wrongdoing. What they are doing is criminal and I believe Google is also complicit in their negligence to act on it. They do not have a store front, their website looks fake, and the amount of 5 stars in such a short time is also quite questionable and in retrospect I should have looked into all of it, but just trusted Google on their 5 star review system

Fraud/Misleading Business Practices Complaint Against United Passport Complainant: ******** ******** ******** *************************** Company: United Passport (unitedpassport.com) / United Passport LLC Order Numbers: #2014293 and #2014309 Date of Transaction: June 30, 2026 Amount Paid: $367.10 (two separate charges of $183.55) Summary of Events: I searched for information on obtaining U.S. passports for my two minor daughters. I was directed to UnitedPassport.com and believed I was purchasing the actual passports through what appeared to be an official or authorized service. I provided the children’s personal information, including full names, Social Security numbers, and address, and paid nearly $400. Instead of receiving passports or official processing, I only received completed application forms (DS-11) that are freely available on the official U.S. Department of State website (travel.state.gov). I could have easily filled these out myself at no cost. The website led me to believe I was buying the passports themselves rather than paying an exorbitant fee simply for form preparation and mailing. When I requested a full refund, United Passport refused. For Order #2014293, they stated the package had been mailed and offered only a 20% “courtesy” refund. For Order #2014309, they provided a cancellation link but attempted to charge a $13.60 transaction fee. They have repeatedly declined to issue full refunds despite clear evidence that the service was misleading. Impact: Unnecessary financial loss of nearly $400 Exposure of my minor children’s sensitive personal information (SSNs, names, address) to a third-party company under misleading circumstances Significant stress and time spent trying to resolve the issue I have all email correspondence, order confirmations, and payment records. I believe this constitutes deceptive and misleading business practices targeting consumers seeking government services. I am requesting a full refund and ask that this company’s practices be investigated to protect other families.

I contacted the company and they told me they were only authorized to refund 30%, I told them that was not good enough, then they came back with 50%, told them that was not good enough, then they said 70%.

Phishing - Asphalt Scam

Unsolicited doorstep solicitation by an out-of-state paving crew operating under the name Commercial Asphalt / E & S Paving (1-800-619-7990). The crew utilized a deceptive pitch claiming they had "leftover hot-mix asphalt" from a nearby commercial road project to pressure a snap decision. They performed a rapid overlay across 8,000 square feet without engineered foundation preparation, then charged a predatory price of $9.00 per square foot, totaling $75,600. This is more than double the maximum legitimate regional market rate for a complete driveway installation with a base foundation. Operational and mathematical fraud was identified immediately after the crew left. A stop-payment order was successfully placed on the checks; no funds were transferred. The incident has been formally reported to local law enforcement, the McDowell County Magistrate, and the North Carolina Attorney General's Consumer Protection Division.

Phishing - asphalt. scam

I was contacted in person by a guy claiming to be a road construction contractor. He said he had a truckload of hot asphalt that he could repave my driveway with at a discounted price. He quoted nine dollars per square foot, paved little over 8000 ft.², and charged me $75600. Realizing this is probably a scan, I researched them and discovered that they are a known scamming company that goes by the name of E&S paving operating in the southeast United States. This is a classic traveling asphalt scam. No reputable asphalt company has leftover hot asphalt. They charged me well over double the going right for what should have been charged. I stopped the payment on both checks. I reported them to law-enforcement, and North Carolina Attorney General.

Advance Fee Loan - Autopay on Kredit Karma / The Savings Group, Inc

The business provider is found on Credit Karma under loans. It's an option to either refinance and existing loan or request a new car loan. The rates advertised are very low making it an attractive offer. Just like others services provided by Credit Karma its looks like a real offer and you apply. The company says your approved and then request additional information to complete the loan. If you have good credit you would expect to get the rate advertised so why not provide the information requested. Plus it's Credit Karma and I have never had this problem in the past. Unfortunately they steal your personal information and do not provide the services offered. Im blocking all my credit bureaus to protect myself. It's unfortunate I fell for this scam.

This happened to my senior mother, she was led to believe she was buying one bottle that was 19.99 (still counterfeit product either way) and instead she was sent 8 bottles amounting to 243.00. Within 2 hrs I called their listed number and requested that they not ship the product because my mom didnt even know she bought anything. (Her card is in her phone for emergencies) I was told that I would have to wait until I received the product and send it back. I told them there is no way they shipped it within the last 90min. They didnt care. When I received the product I know now why they didnt want to return it because that would have made it into a subscription that I have read these people make nearly impossible to cancel. This is an absolute scam and scams like these target older women.

Fake Invoice/Supplier Bill - Fake Invoice/Supplier Bill

Our company discovered that our UPS shipping account was used without authorization to create shipping labels for shipments completely unrelated to our business. During our investigation, we received returned packages containing products we have never sold, including household items and organizers. One of the shipments led us to a logistics company called Winto Logistic in Stafford, Texas. When contacted, a representative, Mr. Heng Li, stated that their China-based operations team handled shipping label creation and said they would investigate. We never received any follow-up. As a result of the unauthorized use of our UPS account, we have been billed for more than $100,000 in disputed shipping charges. We reported the matter to UPS and law enforcement and are continuing to pursue the issue. Businesses should carefully monitor their shipping invoices, especially small unexplained charges such as "Missing PLD Fees," as they may indicate unauthorized use of a shipping account. If you discover suspicious shipments, investigate immediately and preserve all supporting records.

Retail Business - Rocky Mountain Equipment and Supply, Kiln Depot

I am reporting a suspected online equipment scam connected to a Facebook ceramics equipment group. Around May 18, 2026, I became concerned that the original admin of the Facebook group may have been hacked or compromised, and that a new admin or seller account was using the group’s credibility to appear legitimate. "Pottery and Ceramic Equipment Marketplace hub" The seller was presenting themselves as “Rocky Mountain Ceramic Equipment Supply” and was offering ceramic equipment for sale through Facebook. When I attempted to send payment, multiple recipient accounts were flagged as high risk, which made me believe the seller was using fake or mule payment accounts. Accounts were often named after famous people. The seller provided several different payment methods, including Zelle, Chime, and bank transfer information, with different recipient names attached to each method. I reported the suspicious activity to Lead Bank and Bridge because at least some of the bank account information provided by the seller appeared to be connected to Lead Bank / Bridge. Lead Bank responded and said they had escalated the issue to the appropriate partner for investigation. Bridge Support later confirmed that one user account had been frozen and that the account would not be able to transact while under review. After that, I continued to see the suspected scammer posting in the Facebook group and attempting to make sales, which made me concerned they may have been using additional accounts or payment details. I followed up with Lead Bank, and they stated that their partner was actively investigating but that they could not share specific investigation details. I am submitting this report so there is a public record of the suspected scam and to help prevent other people from being misled by fraudulent equipment sales connected to compromised Facebook groups or fake supplier accounts. I have screenshots, emails, payment account details, and correspondence with Lead Bank and Bridge available as supporting evidence.

She posted online on Facebook about properties she had for rent and I contacted her through messenger and she sold me on a house in my city. She seemed legit posing as a realtor company had me fill out a rental application and pay money for an application fee of 60 through Chime wire transfer or Venmo. I sent the money. Then she approved the application and then set up a time to meet at the said house. She then asked me to send her the security deposit before I seen the house so she could get the lease stamped before she brought it and then she would just have to get the rent money and give me the keys to the house. I told her that has to wait because I have to deposit the money in my account before I came to see it because I didn’t want to pay for it if I didn’t like it. But she insisted and said it was refundable if I didn’t want it. So I sent her the 600 dollars through Chime and went to the house. When I got to the house there was a man there and he lived there I asked him and told him what was happening with this person trying to rent his house out. I then messaged her and told her I wanted my money back that somebody lives there and she said that was the workers and I told her no that was a lie. I then politely asked again to refund me my money back and told her I was reporting her. I still didn’t get my money back although she agreed to give the money back.

Phishing - Phase 1 Enviromental / Phase One Enviromental / Phase I Enviromental

I was seeking a rush Phase I Environmental Site Assessment for a real estate / affordable housing funding application. A company using the name “Phase 1 Environmental Consulting” responded quickly and provided a proposal for a Phase I ESA with a 1–3 day turnaround and a total cost of $3,100, with a $1,550 deposit due up front. At first, the proposal appeared legitimate because it referenced ASTM E1527-21, All Appropriate Inquiry, the subject property, a project number, and standard Phase I ESA language. I signed the proposal but did not submit payment. Before paying, I reviewed the company’s website more closely and found multiple red flags. The website appeared heavily AI-generated and contained generic, duplicated, and inconsistent location pages. The company listed different locations and contact details in different places. One page showed a Seattle address that appeared to correspond to the Amazon campus area rather than a clear environmental consulting office. The phone number was not local to Seattle, and some pages used a Gmail address instead of a company-domain email. The website also made broad claims about many locations, large staff capacity, and high annual report volume, but I could not find enough independent evidence to support those claims. The company’s online presence appeared designed to look like a local environmental consulting provider in many cities, while the actual business details were unclear and inconsistent. Because the service required a large upfront deposit and the report would be used for a formal funding application, I became concerned that the company might be misrepresenting its local presence, qualifications, or ability to provide a defensible Phase I ESA. I withdrew before paying and asked the company to confirm that no work had begun and that no amount was due. No payment was made.

A person sent me an email inviting me to a job interview. She, apparently Kathy Bailey, asked me to create an account in www.ringcentral.com. When I did, she used the platform to send me a questionnaire (https://na01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fform.jotform.com%2F*********385062&data=05%7C02%7C%7C6d40a8f08cf84a33c05c08dedc5b4f2d%7C84df9e7fe9f640afb435aaaaaaaaaaaa%7C1%7C0%7C************-**-****%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJFbXB0eU1hcGkiOnRydWUsIlYiOiIwLjAuMDAwMCIsIlAiOiJXaW4zMiIsIkFOIjoiTWFpbCIsIldUIjoyfQ%3D%3D%7C0%7C%7C%7C&sdata=MOr4QY8%2Bbt1VDPGhkhLQkIW48hZY3R89wMl63j53uyU%3D&reserved=0). I completed a questionnaire that is similar to the screenings for an administrative, executive support role). I completed the screening, and the next day she sent two files, for the offer letter and for the onboarding process. I replied saying I accepted, and replied in the platform sending my personal information, only my home address, and the reference number she gave me in prior messages. I am attaching the files she sent. A few hours ago, I replied saying I accepted the job and included a few questions regarding the agreement, but she didn't send a signed agreement. Then, since the email domain does not match the company she apparently works for, I became suspicious and searched her name along with the company name (Oneview Healthcare), and found that this is a scam. This is strange and disturbing because the name of the chair in that company bears on the "apparently" letterhead. The company is legit, it looks like. I searched the names of the leadership in LinkedIn. But the name of this person does not show anywhere. Also, it is strange that she uses an email that does not match the company's domain and uses a platform that is open to the public.

They cussed at me and called me a karen for asking to be removed from their calling list, I receive multiple calls from them daily and I filed my taxes on time and owe nothing. When i tried to bring that to their attention they laughed and cussed at me and called me a dickhead.

I ordered a swimsuit from this supposed business. Business was supposedly in Savannah Georgia. The bathing suit I received was extremely poor quality and nothing at all like the picture. It would probably fit an eight-year-old child and I ordered an extra large. The garment had no tags whatsoever in it or attached to it; which is odd. When I asked for a refund, they said I would need to return it to China. I would need to spend the $30-$40 to ship it back and then for $9.99 they would send me a replacement !This is not acceptable and I feel scammed. They told me to regift the swimsuit to someone else. It is going in the garbage! I just want my full purchase price returned. The last email I received said if I returned the suit to China, they would refund me 10%…again not acceptable to me. Strange too that not once did they give me an address to return it to. I feel scammed. They still have my debit card info I’m sure.

I purchased an oxygen concentrator for my pet on June 27, 2026 online using PayPal payment. That was 325 dollars, including the cost of expedited delivery within 6 days. The first package came on July 5, but it was just a chamber and did not contain an oxygen concentrator. When I contacted the customer support, they sent another package which arrived on July 7. I noticed an authorized recurrent payment plan of 325 dollars to TTLIFE each month in my PayPal account under billing agreement. It said that another 325 dollars was planned to be withdrawn from my PayPal account on July 27, 2026. What is a billing agreement? My payment for purchasing an oxygen concentrator was supposed to be just one time deal. I immediately deactivated the recurrent payment plan in my PayPal account. Is this just a simple mistake on their end or did they try to financially exploit me by secretly charging 325 dollars on my PayPal account every month forever? I am sure that there are a tons of senior customers who have bought their oxygen concentrator and do not know that they have been recurrently charged for the unit every month.

Online Purchase - The Pillow Home

I purchased a neck pillow to help me sleep at night and relieve neck issues. The company states is out of New Mexico, however it is out of China, which caused extreme delay in receiving the product. Upon receipt, finally, the pillow had an awful smell and it was awfully flat even after giving it time to inflate. It was not what was advertised. The website is extremely deceiving with great 5 star reviews. I requested a return and refund. I was told I would have to incur the cost which I ended up doing in an attempt to savage anything. I could. I sent the pillow back on May 28, and to date I have yet to receive a refund. Scam on scam on scam! Please stop this company to operate in the USA. The logistics make it impossible to have a smooth business to customer transaction in case of any issue. It’s fraudulent to state the company is from Tijera New Mexico, with 90 days money back guaranteed, and both being false statements.

Then I learned I was on an active 3 month recurring subscription. I’ve sent as many as 35 emails asking to cancel….receiving the same “boiler plate” response. There’s no means of contacting anyone (phone, email, etc). I suppose the only recourse is to dispute the charges and cancel the credit card before the next delivery.

He showed up very late, with only two guy's, that he was arguing and curse at them the entire . Had to add water too his tank. Argued with him about the job was shit, Cracks were no where near being close to filled, and surface was not at all seal coated properly! What I got was a paint job! His helper said, "what you need is a sand fill to do it right"!!! That's what I asked for up front! Argued with Eagan about this, (I told him up front this is what I expected).

I ordered 2 queen sized blankets. What was delivered was 2 twin sized blankets. When trying to get the situation resolved, I am told that I need to send pictures of the product measurements. When done they tried to say that the blankets need to be stretched out to be measured. I explained that when ordering a product it should be the correct size on arrival, it should not require multiple people, weights, and extreme stretching to meet the size. They were severely delayed in looking over my refund request, which has now pushed me outside the window of their return policy. Which then also requires me to pay more money just to send it back to them to again deny my refund request.

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 and all state issued IDs that you may possess. It also says on here that an asset search is also being conducted too. So if you received 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 third 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 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.

Home Improvement - Premier Garage Doors / Fix Garage Door

We needed a garage door repair due to a broken spring. My wife made an initial contact through the website provided. The website suggests the company name is Premier Garage Doors. The service person showed up on July 7, 2026 late in the afternoon. His truck had no markings. It was black. There was a frame over the bed for carrying long things like rods. The truck has Illinois plates. We live in Washington state. First, he started to replace the springs, the pulleys, and the cables for the door. I am not sure he replaced the rod. The charge for this was $1800.00 parts and labor. He worked less than an hour on this. Afterwards, he asked me and my wife to come to the garage. There, he mentioned that our garage door opener was under powered. He convinced us to replace the opener with a more powerful one. The charge for that was another $2200.00. With 10% sales tax, the total charge came up to $4400.00. We paid with a personal check. A key detail is the new opener. It was made by Chamberlain. The Model is B4655STMC. Per Chamberlain's website, a new one retails for $352, far lower than the $2200.00 he charged us. The unit he installed was not new; it was manufactured in October 2023. He worked on the opener installation less than an hour. So, it looks pretty clear that he price gouged us. No contract was presented upfront, so none was signed. The invoice shows the company name at "Fix Garage Door." The address listed is "Mobile Service." There is no physical address. In light of all of this, I put a stop payment order on the check. I checked the Washington Labor and Industry (L&I) database for Fix Garage Door. None was found, indicating he is not licensed in the state of Washington. I have filed an Unregistered Contractor report with Washington L&I, along with a police report to the Lake Stevens PD, and a police report for Snohomish County (the county we live in). On AARP's advice, I am filing this complaint with you.

I ordered from Warmthof.com after seeing their add online. I started a new job and thought their sandals would work well for my new position. After waiting a long, long time for my order to arrive, I bought other sandals. I emailed the company and attempted to cancel the order. However, they said that I couldn't cancel because my order had already shipped. I wrote back and explained that I no longer wanted the shoes due to the delay in shipping and would be returning them as soon as they arrived. Before ordering, I checked the company's return policy and felt assured I could return the sandals if they didn't fit. That was definitely not the case. I made multiple attempts to return the product, following the provided directions, taking pictures of the original shipping label and unopened package. I requested a shipping label and was told that it was international shipping, which was risky, and if the product didn't arrive, I would lose all my money. Instead, I was offered a 20% discount on my next order or a 20% reimbursement of my original purchase price. I insisted on returning the product three more times over the following weeks. Each time I made the request, the percentage of reimbursement or the percentage of my next purchase increased by 5 percentage points, reaching a high of 35%. I told the company that I had no intention of ordering from them again and I wanted to return the product for a full refund. The customer service team stopped responding to my request and made no additional offers. After several weeks of waiting for a response, I relented and said that I would accept the 35% reimbursement for my purchase. I am doubtful I will receive any of my money back. I am very unhappy with my experience and recommend others not to order from this company.

Employment - Simcha Therapeutics-imposter

I was contacted by Mrs. Gracey Jamil, Chief Specialist Officer. at [email protected] claiming to represent Simcha Therapeutics, Inc. They initiated an interview and hiring process that turned out to be fraudulent. The employer profile on Monster appears to be used to lure applicants into a fake hiring scheme involving counterfeit checks and attempts to obtain banking information. Fraudulent check sent for deposit I received a PDF “check” for $2,390 with instructions to: Print the check on regular paper, Cut it to size, Deposit it via mobile banking, Send a screenshot of the deposit receipt This is a classic fake check scam designed to trick victims into depositing a counterfeit check and then sending money back before the bank reverses the deposit. Fake email domains The scammers used: [email protected] and [email protected]. The real company uses simchatx.com, not simchatherapeutic.com. Interview was conducted via Microsoft Teams with no audio or video. I answered three sets of text based questions. I was “hired” the next day without any real interview. My listed reference confirmed they were never contacted to verify my work experience.

I started at kickback jacks after they called me out of nowhere hired by "James, Zach, and 2 Justin's with a josh. These guys seemed suspect the moment I met them. I worked for them for months, watching how they acted around me and others while doing my job professionally and correctly. They were constantly trying to railroad me since getting there to get out of the restaurant and I know why. 7/7/2026 at about 9:30pm my phone had a notification. That someone was trying to steal from me financially. This is the 11th job to also do the same thing this year alone. It's a big talk of the town so everyone wants their turn to try and steal from my cellphone. Using the app resturant 365 they had a backdoor to my device. I deleted the app after a month or so, suspicious of it as it kept turning on its own settings. Their whole demeanor changed once I did. I knew that was their way in. They had kids behind me 24/7 while the managers kept me busy on the grill trying to financially steal from me and kick me out of my cellphone. They told me to go home at 11pm when I was cleaning up, and then the next day said they never said that, and fired me for no reason. These guys called me to work. They claim I was great and they will give me a reference anywhere. But hire and tire me for no reason. I worked hard for these people and they are criminals. Not to mention 50 year old men that flirt with 20 year old girls. I'm sick of people hiring others to steal their information, try to financially steal from them.. then fire them because they are on salary. They need to be investigated

Additionally, I’ve received 124 text messages from unknown senders today, all from different businesses. They are enrolling in services and placing orders using my name. Ultimately I attempted to buy a $5 Needoh toy from kindcolor.com and had my account drained. They should not be the top result online. Completely illegitimate business.

Employment

I began working with this company the week of June 8th, with unpaid training. My first sale was June 13th, and I worked six days a week, 12 hours a day, but never got paid. The commission was falsely advertised on indeed as a $900 base, but I had to complete 10 demos and make two sales each week to qualify for commission. During the week of June 15-19, I made two $200 sales, but never got the pay. We were constantly forced to knock on doors in unsafe areas, especially the ones with no soliciting signs. The police were called on me several times throughout my experience, me and my team should have been arrested for soliciting and the owner of the office (Sasha) still refuses to provide everyone with a soliciting permit. on June 23rd, I was stranded in Ferris when a faulty tire blew out on the van. My coworker, Don, a former tire mechanic, warned them about the unsafe tires that same morning. on June 26th, I quit after being verbally abused by Sasha for asking the van driver (Paul) "what time were we going to leave?" . She tried to play it off as if I was being impatient and ungrateful when the only way for me to get paid is if I demonstrate the Kirby to 10 homes and sell 2 a week. The previous week I made two sales but only 8 demos because of poor choice of neighborhoods that they solicit. That day I chose to shrug it off and still trying to make some sales. Later that day Paul left me and a coworker Gavin (who is a minor) stranded at a Subway in Ferris. Paul claimed he didn’t want us waiting, but left us an hour from the office. Gavin had to arrange us a ride home. Despite repeatedly contacting them, I still haven’t been paid as of July 8th, an entire month after I started. This company is dishonest, unsafe, and disrespectful. They're known for taking advantage of young, hard-working people like myself and Gavin to delay our checks and throw coins at us while they take away the big bucks, avoid this company at all costs. I've reported them to the Better Business Bureau as a scam, filed a wage claim through the Texas Workforce Commission, and reported the owner Sasha to the police for withholding my check and getting verbally aggressive with me after asking about it. Down below I've added a description for every single person that works here so you know who and what to look out for.... -Owner of TX pure: Sasha-jean Jacquees, age 30-40: verbally aggressive, loud, curvy black woman. -Manager/van driver: Paul saunders, age 50-60: incredibly huge beer belly, bald black man, usually wears a horrifyingly ugly shirt he claims is "designer" or "business casual" with an incredibly tight belt he also claims is designer. -Hiring manager: Jeremy Black, age 45-50 Very polite, Conservative white male with slightly rotten teeth; Will tell you anything to get you hired on their slave team. -Contest front desk: Destry, age 20-30: Tall black man, usually wears shades and cornrows hairstyle. Most likely a former prison inmate -Team leader/van driver: Andrew, age 18: Tall white male about 6'1, brunette, usually wears a cowboy hat, very zesty. WILL call you to bug you on your day off. Drives a blue Subaru outback. -Dealer/van rider: Lionel Jackson, age 23: Short black male with blonde streaks in his dreads, usually in a cowboy hat, hard working. Long fingernails and webbed hands, most definitely reptilian. - Dealer/van rider AK, clean cut black male, similar resemblance to 2018 NBA YoungBoy. no info on his real name or age, flyest yn in the office. Gave him a ride home one night after a long day at work, stopped at raising cane's for a bite to eat knowing I was low on gas that day, never offered gas money or to buy me a meal. I highly recommend if any of these individuals knock your door, let them clean your entire house then kick them out immediately. If you like the Kirby and want to purchase one, purchase a new one online as they use the same Kirby for every house until they sell it.

When it came time to receive the 2nd order, the website didn’t show delivered and a green check mark like the 1st one. I go to the mailbox and inside is the package, and once you open it, there’s bubble wrap holding a weight and that’s it. I’ve been trying to get my money refunded and have sent them multiple pictures. The shipping label says my package weighed 5 ounces. The medium 6” figurine and the bubble wrap/weight together would weigh more than 5 ounces. Whoever packed this Jersey messed up, but this company refuses to take ownership. They sent me a response today saying my package was delivered because they’re showing it weighed 3.32 ounces and had the audacity to offer me 30% off on a future order.

Then it asked me to log in to verify with my bank and I was sent a security code. Once I entered the security code, it said my financial institution needed me to enter my card PIN. After I did that, it said my bank denied the transaction and asked me to enter another card. I never did. Later today, my husband got an email from our bank thanking him for adding my card to ***** Pay. He has an android and my card is already on my ***** Pay. We have reported it to ****** and are monitoring the account.

Online Purchase - MindReader

I was shopping for a laundry basket & hamper from a company called MindReader. Note legit web site is https://mindreaderproducts.com/ and scammer website is https://www.mindreaderfilestorage.com/. I was looking for a particular style via Google, found it, ordered in Feb. Got a confirmation email, CC was charged, & then nothing. A few weeks ago, I decided to try to follow up & every email address I tried for company bounced (non-existent or MX record issue), finally I tried to use the site's online web form & that hung as well. I just now filed a dispute with my CC company, but this company is bad & needs to be flagged so others aren't wasting their time or money.

I ordered a pair of athletic shoes, received an order confirmation and that was the last communication I received. The order tracking and account links in the confirmation email were broken, and customer service never responded to my email requesting an update. I never received the product and ultimately had to dispute the charge with my bank. I would recommend NOT purchasing from this website. There's a reason it the price seemed too good to be true.

I saw an ad on FB for Blanton’s 42nd Anniversary decanter. I ordered it, and after the 12-15 days it said it would take, I tried emailing and calling their support number. The number just rang and the emails went unanswered. Searching for the website on Google showed no scam info but it seems they just changed websites recently. I was able to find the scam report here but searching the name that showed up on the “receipt”, 93 GOOSE FASHION PTE LTD.

Online Purchase - Crypto Scam

I am reporting a suspected cryptocurrency non-delivery scam / advance-fee scam. A seller connected to sirilukchemicals.com and https://www.sirilukchemicals.com/faq.html requested Bitcoin payment for an order. I paid $106.51 total through Coinbase. After payment, they refused to ship or complete the order and demanded another $98 for surprise “insurance,” “surcharge,” “inspection,” “laboratory analysis,” “documentation,” “customs,” and “safety and handling” fees that were never disclosed before payment. They refused to provide an official carrier invoice, tracking number, carrier name, logistics company proof, invoice number, or verifiable documentation. They stated the payment is final/non-refundable and that the order will remain on hold unless I send more Bitcoin.

Phishing - Heirlift Estate Services

Several months ago, I was contacted via phone by somebody claiming they wanted to help me with a deceased relative's estate and that they where intersted in helping me settle. My spouse received the same call. After asking them not to contact me anymore, we both received letters in the mail. In the last couple weeks I have been contacted again via multiple forms of communication. This all seems very odd to me, as the death of this relative was over a decade ago and all matters regarding the estate were settled at that time. There is nothing to settle. I'm also unsure how my contact information, including address (as I've moved multiple times), would be attached to her old estate. I am related to the deceased person through marriage. None of it added up. I let the person who called the second time know I didn't apprecaite some one using the death of a relative as a way for them to scam me. It doesn't feel good to have the death of a loved one brought back up in this manner. They got VERY upset with me. Refused to hang up the phone. Afterwards, they sent me a nasty text message, which I will attach.

I checked my "next bill date" after and it has gone from next month to in a few days. Do NOT purchase ANYTHING from this site.

This company reached out to me multiple times via phone, email, text, and letter. After speaking to a representative the first time, I was polite and asked them not to contact me again. They continued to do so. Additionally, they are claiming they want me to sell my mother-in-law's estate to them. She died many, many years ago, and her estate was settled at that time. I found it really gross that they'd prey on the relatives of a dead person in this way.

Ordered the item from a seller on Facebook. At first all seemed like a normal purchase, then when checking for a tracking number no information came up and the website disappeared. Tried to contact support by email and was rejected. Then suddenly tracking info appeared but moved VERY slowly probably waiting for my credit card to clear. 3 weeks later I get a tiny package with cheap earrings. The package was supposed to be a 300lb lift! I contacted my credit card to deny payment but they said too much time had passed.
