Online Purchase

I was on Facebook marketplace looking for a dresser. A wayfair dresser was available and it redirected me to a fake wayfair site. The charge on my card was to rexnelly.com The tracking information on the package initially said it couldn't get through customs. They resent the package and then said they have record of it being delivered and a fake signature that wasn't mine.

Online Purchase - Dharaseeds / MEGA POWERWAYS

It's about an non-delivery of goods. Here are the details of the transaction: - **Retailer:** Dharaseeds - **Order Number:** DHARA6708 - **Order Date:** August 18, 2026 - **Item Purchased:** Plum Prunus mume Fruit Tree Seeds for Winter Backyard Planting (100 Pcs) - **Tracking Number:** HHWPX6233032801YQ https://t.17track.net/en#nums=HHWPX6233032801YQ The seller provided a tracking link indicating that the package was handed over to the carrier, but there have been no further tracking updates since then. I have contacted their customer support multiple times. On September 10, they requested that I wait an additional 7 to 10 working days. However, well over that timeframe has passed, and I have still not received the package nor any further meaningful updates regarding its location.

Online Purchase

Yuzhou Shengyaxuan Hair Products Co., Ltd. (operating under the deceptive front name Fysin Hair) is running an intentional, predatory bait-and-switch scheme designed to exploit platform loopholes and trap consumer funds [o-EnTa]. The business lists cheap, synthetic plastic hair blends at premium prices by explicitly labeling and marketing them as "100% human hair." This material misrepresentation is a mathematically calculated fraud: the seller knows that the true, cheap plastic composition of the hair can only be definitively exposed by chemically processing or dyeing it. The moment a consumer attempts to dye the hair and discovers the synthetic fibers through severe pigment rejection and melting, the seller immediately triggers a pre-planned trap. They deny the refund request by hiding behind a strict "no alterations or use" return policy [NjS]. By doing this, the merchant weaponizes standard platform return rules to insulate themselves from fraud, using automated system guidelines as a shield to pocket premium human hair profits while distributing cheap counterfeit plastic.

CryptoCurrency - Charge Point IMPOSTER

I am requesting that law enforcement investigate the individuals and entities behind the website, determine who controls the associated cryptocurrency addresses, trace the source and destination of the cryptocurrency, and determine whether other victims or related cryptocurrency addresses are involved. I have supporting evidence available, including screenshots, communications, website information, transaction records, Bitcoin addresses, transaction IDs, and other records related to the activity. I am providing this information as suspected fraudulent activity and am requesting an investigation rather than making a definitive allegation about the identity or criminal conduct of the individuals involved. Charge Point provided me with a withdrawal balance of USD 30,322.59 and told me that I was required to pay a cryptocurrency tax before I could withdraw my funds. The message I received stated: “Based on your withdrawal amount of USD 30,322.59, cryptocurrency income that reaches the taxable threshold under cryptocurrency policy is subject to tax. USD 30,322.59 × 21% = USD 6,367.74. You need to pay the tax first before you can withdraw the funds normally. ” I was therefore instructed to pay USD 6,367.74 before I would be permitted to withdraw the purported USD 30,322.59 balance. The website associated with this activity is: https://www.chargepnt-evplug.com/ https://complaint.ic3.gov/#step2 They owe me over 36000 I put in over 23k and they want let me withdraw it and terminated my withdrawal account now I’m negative in all my accounts and I’m going to lose my car and my credit is going to be terrible

I am not too sure as how they're able to scam me really because as much as they offered me the job,did everything from registering on the handmade website,we went thru all the way into how to get my order into processing and to getting the product into shipping to me.I was also added into a chat room where I could see what is the daily task for the day and to interact with the manager and other people in the chat group. My order, I wasn't charge at all and free delivery too. I have a order tracker and I have my shipment tracker I could go to check. But after I left the chat since everything went smoothly and it all completely set up,I didn't check it anymore until the next day,and I was surprised to find out that the whole chat I have with her is already deleted and I can't contact her anymore.the chat we have is still in my screen but I can't do anything with it anymore since it's been flag as deleted conversation. I don't know what is it that they able to scam from me aside from the time I spent going to the procedure of being in business with the handmade product,but the info that they asked is just basic,name, address and phone number,nothing special.so I dont really know if I got scammed. The only thing is that,I'm not sure if I can still receive the shipment or is it deleted too .I check the tracker and it is still there,waiting for a courrier to pick up.

They offered outdoor specific pants. I ordered 2 pair with the size clearly stated. I received after a very long wait, every thing right about what was ordered except the size, I ordered 36 x 28, and received 32 x 28. Way too small. After much waiting for a supposed investigation on whose fault, they offered 50% refund and I could keep the pants? Then they offered a full refund provided I return the pants. That would result in about the same amount of refund, about half. Because I used my Paypal account tied to my checking, it was like writing a check and the bank is helpless.

Title: Suspected EN590 / commodity scam: MEF Petroleum Global and Unique Procurement Services Summary I believe the following two entities are working together in an advance-fee scam involving fuel and commodity trading (EN590 and similar products): MEF Petroleum Global: mefpetroleumglobal.com, [email protected] Unique Procurement Services: uniqueprocurement.com, WhatsApp +61432058930 What happened: I was approached on WhatsApp (+61432058930) by a guy who claimed to be 'Dr. James' and 'Frank' offering EN590. They claimed to be based in South Africa and Australia. I was asked to sign a Sales and Purchase Agreement (SPA) with one entity, but to send payment to a separate "paymaster" with whom I had no contract. Why I believe this is a scam: Payment is directed to a third party that isn't a party to the SPA. The two entities appear to be coordinating with each other. Advice to others Be cautious if you're contacted by either name. Never pay a party you don't have a contract with, and verify company registration and bank details independently before sending any money.

They contacted me to purchase a house. Helping me with loans and anything I might need to get into a house. Said government has a program to help with the down payment. I just have to get in there program to get started. 99 dollars now and 99 dollars next month. They got my personal information to run a a credit check. To see what my score was and where I needed help.my daughter looked them up as I was getting off phone and realized that this company had only been in business for 6 months and the name Bradley Baker he is the ceo if foundation debt resolution and the home program is an affiliate of that. He was taking money from people with bad reviews. So they don’t have this business reported to you yet. On the site she looked at said they don’t take fees or a credit check. But they did that to me the first two hours we talked. I talked to Zach Castillo. With two phone numbers. First one he called me from is 1-469-935-7375 and the other phone number was the home program 1-833-777-3323 which is on the pages they sent me to look through pictures of homes . He said to pick out 7 and we talk about this in two days. Another person would be calling going over my information and doing the financing of the house that I want to buy. Haven’t heard from him yet. The information they got was home address, ssn, credit card information. Everything you need to get a loan. They made it seem real. When I ask about if this could be a scam Zach reassured me it wasn’t and sent me the site of the program it look official. He said the program can get 25,000 for down payment . In most cases with good credit. That they would do a soft credit check so it wouldn’t hurt my credit. Please help stop these guys. If my daughter hadn’t look this up I would be in more danger than I am now. I’m going to call my credit card company and stop payment on this 99 dollars and get a new card. But they still have my personal information and I don’t know what to do about that. Hopefully you can stop them before they can use it against me.

I clicked onto Altrx weight loss website to order some medication. after i clicked on it and ordered the medication and gave them my bank account information, they immediately took $1500 out of my bank account. I realized I was on the wrong site and I called them immediately and told them that I didn't mean to order from them, that I had clicked on the wrong website, therefore I wanted a refund and I did not want their medicine. They told me that they could not refund me nor could they cancel my order until the year was up. I have called and emailed them multiple times with no help. Finally this one guy called me and wanted me to download an app called "Lemfi". So I did, I followed the guy's instructions on what to do in order to get a refund. Well he told me to use the password "Refund499" so I did. I asked him several times would any money come out of my account and he told me "no" that this is how they process their refunds. So I followed all the steps and at the very end, I found out he took another $499 out of my bank account. Needless to say, I cussed him out, hung up on him and then called my bank to dispute the charges. I finally got that $499 put back in my account. I had used a different account for the $1500 and I disputed the charges there as well and they are investigating it, but so far, I have not gotten that money back. Now I see all over Facebook where countless people have been scammed by the same company and took money from them only to find out that they want refund to them either. I just want this company stopped some how, so they can't keep taking money from people like me.

It specifically stated that the box contained 9 booster packs, a full-art foil promotional card, 16 foil Basic Energy cards, 65 card sleeves, a player’s guide, dice, a coin, dividers, a collector’s box and a Pokémon TCG Live code card. I selected the “ETB” option and completed the purchase. The checkout page and subsequent order confirmation both identified the product as a “Pokemon - TCG - 30th Celebration Elite Trainer Box.” After completing the transaction, I became concerned about the legitimacy of the website and the unusually low price of the product. I began looking more closely into the seller and whether the business and merchandise being advertised were legitimate. This raised concerns that the website may be accepting payment for highly sought-after Pokémon products that it may not actually have or may not deliver as advertised. I have retained screenshots of the original product listing, the complete list of advertised contents, the price, checkout page, and order confirmation as evidence of exactly what was represented at the time of purchase. I am reporting this as a suspected online shopping scam so that the website and business can be investigated and so that other consumers considering purchasing Pokémon products from this site are aware of the potential risk. Consumers should independently verify the legitimacy of the seller before providing payment information or placing an order.

Counterfeit Product - Online Purchase Scam

I made a purchase with this online company and the item I received was not as described, it was dirty and looked used. Their website states that refund s are honored within 30 days and to email them at [email protected] and they will respond within one business day. I’ve now sent four emails about a refund and have not received any response. I did google this company after I received a bad product and they are scammers according to other comments. The order number is ********.
