Green postcard saying "final notice for unclaimed reward of up to $100 at Walmart or Target Call 1 888 721 1381. Call now for extra $50 shopping rewards." I checked online for a real phone # and none showed up. I did not click on a link on their website for a phone # to customer service. I figured and pretty much knew it is a scam.

Seedsw offers seeds and bulbs via their website. There is no phone, address, etc for them in their Contact Us - just "join our email list." They do offer "[email protected]". There are no replies.

This person is contacting people via text. They are saying that they are in the area of the person’s residence and asking if they want a huge discount on tree removal. Or they were texting asking people if they want a quote on tree removal. The company that they are pretending to be went out of business several years ago due to the owner retiring. This has been happening often and on for the past year. People now contact the former owner of the company and are very upset of the flood of texts from the scam company.

Online Purchase - Online Purchase - Lamp Scam

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

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

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

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

Counterfeit Product - Counterfeit Product - Cartertoronto

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

There was nothing on their website before or during the initial test that stated I would have to pay any more than the $1.95. they refuse to give me a refund because 3 days had passed since I took the test. They claimed after the test they sent me a welcome email that stated I would be subscribed to a monthly $39.95 fee.

You book a flight with them, they cancel the flight, they don't issue a refund. They keep the money and keep telling your refund will come later. Originally they said 45 days, now they say it could be months.

They have contacted me numerous times after I’ve asked to be put on the do not call list. They would not give me an actual address for receiving legal complaint, but they have called me persistently.

Retail Business

On May 12, 2026 at 2:55pm a call went to my voicemail. It is a recorded message that states they are Apria Healthcare, that I have an outstanding balance, and to prevent further collections effort to call them at 971-217-9927 to provide payment via credit card for balance owed and any future charges. They also provide a false website address EPAY.APRIA.COM to pay online. Thankfully this was not a successful scam call. Nice try bad guys. I know that I do not have a balance with Apria. Before calling any phone numbers or going to websites "they" provide you, do some research first.

Phishing

I was called on Wednesday morning and given an automated message saying there was an important message for me and gave my full name. When i went through the call process I was only told it was a message regarding my father and was not given further information. When I asked what the message is or who it is from I was asked for more personal information and when I told them I would not provide any information until they identified who they represented and why they were calling they hung up on me. I called back 8 times and was not told the name of the company that is calling me and was hung up on multiple times before even getting to an operator. I am worried this organization is looking to scam my father and get personal information or worse with the help of AI call representatives. They claimed to be a law office but the call experience in no way represents any legal business.

Phishing - Ava Nelson / Process Server

Received 2 calls, back to back, from different phone numbers and 2 relatives had received calls, also from different phone numbers on the same day. They received the same recording. I did attempt to call the number they provided me using *67, attempting to locate a business name, however the phone rang for a while and went to a generic message prompting you to leave a voicemail. The voicemail that my relatives and I received is as follows: "This is Ava Nelson calling to follow up with a complaint received in our office for “my name”. The document case number is ###-#####. Documents regarding your file are being prepared to be sent out. You will need to be available to sign for the delivery. The issuing agent will dispatch confirmation. If they are unable to reach you at home, they will attempt to reach you at your verified place of employment. In order to stop further action from being taken, you will need to call 951-999-4091. This call has been logged and recorded as proof of efforts being made to notify you."
