I placed my order easily via an ad that popped up for Cartivra online paying by credit card. Shipping took longer than stated which is when I realized it was coming from China. The tracking information kept saying the order was on its way, etc or was stateside via its carrier JS Express. Each time I checked it seemed to be closer then out for delivery then finally delivered to mailbox. I immediately checked my mailbox but there was nothing there. After checking several times nothing was received. I contacted Cartivra and was told they would reship my order. Then a few days later they sent new tracking info, a USPS tracking info number. That info did not list a delivery address and was invalid. Do not order from this company as it is a scam. Their customer service is non existent and refunds never happen.

Employment - CVS Health Imposter Employment Phishing and Identity Theft Scam

This individual tried to scam me through what was presented as a job interview. I was asked to do an interview through Zoom, so I initially assumed it would be a typical webcam interview, especially since I’m applying for work-from-home positions. However, the “interview” was actually conducted entirely through the chat. I immediately noticed that something felt off, especially with the questions they were asking and how urgently they wanted me to respond. I’ve experienced something similar before through WhatsApp, so I decided to proceed with the interview just to see where it would go. Sure enough, she eventually told me I was hired and then asked me to provide government and tax documents. That’s when I knew for sure it was a scam. Please be careful and don’t waste your time with these people. If something about a job interview feels off, especially when they’re asking for sensitive personal information before you’ve even properly spoken with anyone, trust your instincts and do your research.

Ordered these R-alpha lipoic acid supplements and noticed it was taking a long time to receive. I checked the shipping and it said the origin was China. I emailed support and told them I would not ingest anything in my body that is made in China. She assured me they were made and shipped from Wyoming and that the shipping carrier they use sometimes shows false information. The package arrived and the return address shows 305 S. Hewitt St, Los Angeles which appears to be a vintage clothing store, no phone number shown in Google maps. The number given by Amex says "sorry no one available to answer your call" . The address on the website appears to be a car dealership in Cheyenne WY and there number rings and then drops. I don't think products that are ingestible should be shipped from China without the public knowing they were made there. The package does not show the country of origin which i thought was a requirement? Will attach photos of the package. They do offer a money back guarantee so I will try to return the product for a refund.

Credit Cards

My caller ID identified the call from a US Bank Branch. The woman's name was Jessica Adams, employee #BO2008, and stated someone had applied for a credit card in my name. She gave the last four numbers of my social security. number. The number she called from was 417-588-4111 and Lebanon MO flashed on the screen. She stated the request for the credit card came from Ashville, NC. I did not give her any information but asked to speak with her supervisor as her dialect was difficult to understand. I was transferred to 'Addie', employee #31005 and she was not much easier to understand. I told her I would investigate further and get back to her. She gave me 800-905-8585 as the return call number. I was not able to get through because of a continued busy signal, not typical of a bank phone system. I called my local US Bank and they confirmed it was a scam. I put an alert on Equifax for a year. Thank you for investigating this incident.

On September 19, I purchased a 2023 Sierra from Mazed of Wesley Chapel (26944 Wesley Chapel Blvd, Wesley Chapel, FL 33544). They withheld information regarding several issues: a delay in the vehicle's ignition, an abnormal noise on the right side when parked, and an abnormal noise from the left door while driving at high speeds. Additionally, the vehicle came with only one key; I was promised the second key by September 22. However, on the 22nd, none of the three staff members who had assisted me answered my calls, and no one replied to the numerous messages I sent. I would now like to return the vehicle and am seeking your department's assistance. Thank you!

I paid a fee to see one time content of a friends ad in Times Square. I never got to see the content and then a day later was charged for a subscription that I never signed up for, neither did the site tell me I was signing up for. All the emails from the company went to my junk email, which I am sure is by design. Including the cancellation email. They only offered a partial refund. And the agent told me ti be more careful next time. They are stealing money and it’s likely some kind of shell company funding things.

Fake Invoice/Supplier Bill

We were sent an invoice for light bulbs for $500. Unfortunately, the AP team set up the vendor and processed the invoice (we'd happened to be working on a remodel at the apartment community, and they thought it was related to that project, since we'd set up a few new vendors during that time). When I reviewed the new vendor, I discovered immediately that we had never heard of them or ordered anything from Florida. I googled it and found on your site that they were a scam company. But they've continued to send us invoices (sent to the property manager) and attempt to collect payment. I tried to call them but no one answers. I also emailed them and demanded that they desist sending us invoices for unwanted and unapproved products. We have no idea how they got the names and addresses of our employees.

I ordered ferns based on the advertisement but was sent different ferns. The advertisement described the ferns as full and lush with 70% OFF the normal $99.00 price. I received a bait and switch product. Poor quality, one piece skimpy green fern and one piece skimpy red fern. I ordered two sets and both were the same. When I contacted Bulpark customer service this is what I was told:Upon investigation, we found that the differences arose primarily because the product photos were taken under professional lighting, combined with the supplier's failure to strictly adhere to our production specifications. The supplier's non-compliant production practices have also resulted in financial losses for us. The first offer was 30% refund, then 50% but I would be responsible for the return shipping and processing cost. The attachment is what I received instead of what was advertised.

Hi, this is Ryan from CVC. A recent investigation uncovered credit card companies and major banks have violated consumer protection laws such as the Fair Credit Billing Act and Fair Credit Reporting Act. Because of this, these businesses are not allowed to collect on their accounts. Meaning you are no longer legally required to pay back certain debt, and those balances will also be removed from your credit report. To hear which banks and credit card companies were found guilty, and what will be removed from your credit, call 888-356-1808. Again, that's 888-356-1808.
