I was offered a $30/hour data entry position immediately after posting my Resume on CalJobs. "Jayden Sutton" reached out at set up a Teams meeting which was just a link to fill out a form with a bunch of questions. Once that was completed, there was a job offer with a W-4 to complete along with all other identifiable info. I decided to do some research and was disappointed to realize this was all fake. Do not send them your info!

Credit Repair/Debt Relief

I am incredibly disappointed and concerned by the lack of professionalism and communication from Tatiana. I paid a total of $750 ($500 initiation fee plus a $250 monthly fee) for credit repair services. It has now been 3 months, and I have received absolutely zero updates regarding my credit. Here is a breakdown of my experience: Empty Promises: During the first week, Tatiana stated she would email me documents to sign. That never happened. She then insisted we meet in person, which I explained was impossible for me as I work two jobs. Zero Communication: Before signing up, I told her about my bad experiences with previous creditors. She promised me there would be constant communication, which ended up being completely false. Whenever I tried calling her for a simple update, she brushed me off and told me I was only allowed to call her with a scheduled appointment. Unprofessional Behavior: As of right now, she has completely ghosted me. She refuses to answer my calls, and on the rare occasion she does pick up, says she is talking to someone in her staff, then she hangs up on me. I have asked for a full refund and received absolutely no response. Security Concerns: The most alarming part of this entire ordeal is that I trusted her with my highly sensitive personal information, including a copy of my ID, utility bills, and my Social Security Number. Given how she is operating, this is incredibly concerning.

Received a prerecorded voicemail from 661-214-2600 claiming they had been retained to schedule and deliver legal documents to my home or workplace between 8 AM and 4 PM. The recording stated they would make only two attempts, threatened that the pending matter could proceed after a ‘failed action to serve,’ and claimed the call had been logged as proof that I had been notified. I was instructed to call 866-558-1943 and reference file number 2026-987045. I did not call back, provide personal information, or send money. I found multiple reports describing substantially the same process-server/legal-document scam. Here is the exact transcript: "We have been retained to schedule and deliver legal documents to you between the hours of 8 AM and 4 PM at either your home or your place of employment. We'll be making only two attempts to deliver these documents, which will require signature as proof of delivery. If we are unable to deliver these documents after 2 attempts, it will be classified as a failed action to serve, which will result in the pending matter to proceed further without your consent. If you have any questions or if you need to reschedule this delivery, press one now to be connected to the next available representative, or you can call the office directly at 866-558-1943 and reference your file number. 2026-987045.

Worthless Problem-solving Service

I receive a letter that appeared to be from the finance company telling me I was required to have a home appliance warranty service on a reverse loan mortgage. I told them I did not want one. They stressed that I was required to have one and said it was $250 a month. I said I could not afford it and didn't want it. They said they would work with me because it was required and my loan was in jeopardy. They continued to lower the price to $112.67. My boyfriend and I were together 20 years. A few days after he died in 2025, I received the letter. I was grieving and alone. I was so frightened I agreed to their request. They took my credit card number and started collecting. I was afraid to mention this to anyone because I was in my 80's scared and afraid I would have to leave. A month ago I spoke with the loan company about property taxes and asked if the warranty was required. They said, "No". I now feel like I was caught in a scam. As an old woman I don't know what to do.

I contacted Jessica Huber (owner) about purchasing a weighted birth animal. We discussed details and I paid for the animal in March. I contacted Jessica on multiple occasions trying to get a shipping or tracking number or any sort of proof the animal was being sent to me. All she could say were excuses and the animal would be shipped. 6 months pass and after asking for a refund multiple times I told Jessica I’m filing to get my money back. She has not contacted me in over 2 weeks. She has a habit of not responding. I’ve had to contact her on multiple social media platforms just to get a response. The latest way I was getting ahold of her was via email.

I was given the number 844-587-3489 for Booking.com customer service. The person seemed to know about my credit card, and the rewards I was calling about. He then asked for my credit card number, claiming he was going to refund the money to me. I then received a $4000+ charge on that credit card while I was on the phone with him. I immediately told him that he needed to take that charge off, and he tried lying to me about it. I hung up, and he called me back on 720-263-6543, trying to confuse me, but I was already on the other line reporting the incident to my credit card company. Both of these numbers are associated with a scammer, and beware!!! Hopefully my credit card company will be able to void this charge.

I was trying to sell a washer on Facebook marketplace for $200. I was sent a text and the person said they would pay me by Cashapp. Then I received an email saying I needed to call the phone number to get assistance to get this money. I stupidly called and they got into my phone and took out 499.99 out of my Cash app and 499.99 out of Paypal before I realized what was happening. Additionally, they took $999.99 again out of my Paypal. My credit union got back that charge, but I never got back the two withdrawals from Paypal or Cashapp for the $499.99. I have disputed it many times, but they won't return my money. Paypl even had me call back a shady non 1-800 number to report fraud. It maybe that they are in on it.

This person is stealing photos and content from other people. The photos are of dachshund puppies. The photos were found on instagram and were posted March 2026. This person is using the same photos and claiming the puppies she has for sell are younger than the age of the photos taken off of instagram and added to their website. This person also refuses to let you meet the puppies in person before you pay a reserved fee of $300. There is always an excuse. She says she takes specific payment methods on her site. However, whenever I helped my family member with payment she then gave us a hard time and claimed she wanted to do other payment options. She even tried to get my family member to buy her a gift card as payment. She also refuses cash payment in person. When payment was sent online, her name on the payment method did not match the name she says is her name. She will send you a receipt that claims the $300 payment to reserve a puppy is refundable. However, she will not refund your money.

I purchased two AEROCLEAN ashtrays from BowLift for a total of $188.35. The package was delivered, but only one ashtray was inside, and the one I received was defective and would not charge or operate properly. I contacted BowLift immediately and provided order information, photos, video, and repeated written explanations. BowLift later acknowledged in writing that I paid for two ashtrays, received only one, and that the one received was defective. Instead of providing a straightforward refund, BowLift repeatedly changed its proposed resolution. I was offered partial refunds, store vouchers, replacement merchandise, and return options. The company repeatedly requested documentation that had already been provided and at one point told me to search my property and ask neighbors even though I had clearly stated that the package itself was delivered and only one of the two items was inside. BowLift also appears to be reneging on its own published return policies. I found multiple conflicting return policies on its website, including different return periods and inconsistent statements regarding return shipping for defective merchandise. I was told that no prepaid return label would be provided even though BowLift’s published policy states that defective or incorrect items qualify for covered return shipping. The repeated demands, shifting explanations, conflicting policies, and continued pressure after the facts had already been acknowledged became, in my opinion, unnecessarily harassing. BowLift later offered a 75% refund, then offered a store voucher valued at £254.99. I declined store credit because I no longer wish to purchase anything from the company. I requested a refund to my original payment method for the missing and defective merchandise. I have opened a PayPal Buyer Protection case, which has been escalated to a claims specialist. I am reporting this as a possible deceptive business practice so other consumers are aware of my experience.

Phishing - Warranty

Contacted me by letter on June 5, 2026 regarding expiring car warranty and to contact them by 78/2026 to have my vehicle service contract activated. They have the license plate number to my vehicle, personal email, but disconnected the call before they could be obtain my banking information after they transferred me to the financial manager. They tried to force me to the agreement by stating that I had to complete the policy on the call as I could call back to activate it at a later date when I asked about calling back at a different time.
