Online Purchase - Forge & Fjord

The company was running a "promotion" that stated all items were free - just pay shipping. My husband purchased several items, not realizing this is a classic scam. He immediately tried to cancel the order, and they told him they were unable to because it was already in process, but we could request a refund if we were displeased with the items. Upon receipt of the items, I requested a refund, and they stated they were unable to because the items were free. The promotion he purchased from stated that their US Warehouse was closing, so they were liquidating inventory. On their website, it states that they ship fast from their US Warehouse. When I checked the shipping information, it was shipped from China. I tried advising them that they were fraudulently advertising US shipping, and they dismissed that. I am in process of requesting a charge back through our bank.

Online Purchase - The Intuition Decor

The website presents itself as being in Boulder, CO, and I was told by a representative that they have a warehouse in Texas and a showroom in Michigan. I order a sofa set from them and the website states the order and process will take 1-3 days. At day four, I contacted the company as I did not receive any shipping information, and I was told that the warehouse had exhausted their inventory. I asked for my order to be refunded, and after going back and forth being pressured by the representative to take a discount instead of canceling my order, I refused and demanded a refund. I was told a refund would be issued in 3-5 days. I was then contacted via email asking me not to cancel my order and they offered $30 discount. Again I refused and demanded a full refund and restated I wanted my order canceled. As of yet, I have not been refunded the money and now will take up the dispute with my credit card company. The address given is on the website of the registered address is 1942 Broadway Street, Suite 314C, Boulder, CO.

Counterfeit Product - MemoPryl

Last Tuesday, August 4, 2026, I was looking at the news messages on my email. There was info about medication for Alzheimers disease. At first it was a '60 Minutes' segment, then there was Bill Gates talking about this new 'medicine' that really helped. To help others, Bill Gates is shouldering half of the drug's cost. A 6 month treatment is recommended. Instead of about $100. per month supply, customers just pay half- so I my Mastercard payment was $294. Usually, when I order something, a confirmation of the order comes thru my email very soon. When I finished answering my emails, there was no confirmation, so I had doubts, and checked out 'MemoPryl' . People were reporting that the Bill Gates appearance was a deep fake; and that this was a scam. I tried to call, then email search for cancellation; but could not contact this merchant. I called Mastercard not to pay it; but more than 30 minutes passed that morning, with AI waiiting. I kept trying to contact Mastercard every morning, because the only chance I talked to a human- he said I have to wait for the merchandise to be delivered. By Saturday, my sister-in-law for whom I bought this 'herbal medicine'- reported a box that she received. I told her to put it aside and not open it. I had to search for how to return it; because the package only placed a 'Shipper' phone number. It implied they were not the merchant. There was an 800 555 0199 number listed which I called. It only said that 'this number is not assigned'. I searched several times in the web until I found an address: 19655 E 35th Drive Suite 100. Aurora, Colorado 80011. I called my sister-in-law's sister to return this merchandise to that address.

Retail Business - Faulty Auto Repair

I left my car there for over a month and paid about $6,000 for repairs. When I finally got it back, it still had the same problems I brought it in for. While some new parts had been installed, the original issue was never resolved, and I ultimately had to scrap the vehicle. The most frustrating part was paying thousands of dollars and waiting weeks without getting a working car in return. I feel like I paid for repairs without receiving a real solution, and the entire experience left me feeling misled and taken advantage of.

Bank/Credit Card Company Imposter - Pay Pal Imposter

On 7/8/26 I attempted several times to go into the PayPal app which I have on my phone to update payment for my apple cloud account. After several attempts and a notice on the PayPal app that I needed to put in my banking information I decided to call. Note: I was not going to do this direct link to my bank - that is why I use PayPal. I looked up the PayPal phone number which was the same number I had listed in my iphone – phone book. That number of 888 221 1161. My call was answered and I explained my problem. The male PayPal rep stated that I had a problem on my PayPal account and he was going to transfer me to someone that could assist me. He gave me the number of 847 920 8390 PayPal IMC just in case we got disconnected. I was connected immediately and the female PayPal rep stated that I had large sums of money in gift cards thru Cash App and Bit coin being identified under my name. The PayPal rep, a female stated that she would be able to assist me and ask if she could send a “remote access” so that she could see what was going on. It all seemed logical and I was now in panic because of the huge sum of money that was being identified that I was responsible for. I was sent a link which I now understand provided access to my phone and everything that I was instructed to click on. I did not see the respondent moving thru the apps and could not see the outcomes until I called the bank on 7/9/26. Huntington Bank immediately instructed me that they were putting a hold on my account. I honestly cannot remember what happed first but once in my bank account she implied that Bit coin payment was being taken out. I was instructed to see if I could send money to someone I trusted which I did. My daughter in law called me during this transaction and actually spoke to the PayPal representative questioning the action. It appears that as we were talking the PayPal rep. was able to see my pin # even though it does not appear on my phone when entering it. Later on someone took out a payment to a MasterCard debit ending in 2368 per cash app it was taken out on 7/9/26 at 3:53am. I did dispute this with Cash App Support. Note: I received no automatic notification of these transactions that I have setup for all my accounts. I did not know about this until I went into my Huntington Bank on 7/9/26. The PayPal Support person also stated that I had numerous gift cards being sent out from my account connected to apple pay. I had recently disconnected my Discover card from apple pay and put in my Citi Bank Card within two weeks prior to this incident but I had never used either card for any payments on apple pay. I have no idea how my apple pay was used to send out gift cards from the following businesses. Uber and Grubhub all of which was only paid thru PayPal. Note: I received no automatic notification of these transactions that I have setup for all my accounts that these cards were being sent out???? Nor can I see them in my Apple Pay App account when opened. Huntington Bank Zelle – First and foremost I did not have a Zelle account open with Huntington Bank. However, someone sent Stephanie $2500.00 from my old checking account posted date was 7/8/26 from Huntington Bank.

I purchased The Corporate Hottie Mentorship from Corporate Hottie Camp, sold through stan.store/corporatehotticamp and marketed on Instagram as corporatehotticamp, for $1,104.15 in July 2026. The program was advertised as a 90 day done with you career placement partnership, not a resume service. The seller's own sales page states explicitly this is not a resume package, this is a partnership, and promises hand picked job leads, application submissions, interview preparation, salary negotiation coaching, and weekly check ins until the client lands a role. What was actually delivered was fundamentally different from what was sold. The job sourcing advertised as hand picked was in fact automated. In a written text message the seller admitted I have a system that pulls them for me. This directly contradicts the hand picked language on the sales page and means I paid for personalized human curation and received automated output. Every cover letter submitted on my behalf to five prospective employers contained an unfilled date placeholder reading Month Day Year where the actual date should appear. The seller admitted this defect in writing after the fact. Incomplete and unprofessional documents were submitted under my professional name to five companies without my knowledge or review. Three of five job applications were submitted to employers I never authorized. I had established a written pre-approval workflow and it was violated. The seller exited the 90 day engagement after approximately 11 days. Phase 3 of the program including four live coaching calls, interview preparation, and salary negotiation scripts was never delivered. The ongoing weekly application support for the remaining 79 days was cancelled. When confronted the seller attempted to reframe the engagement as a resume delivery service and offered only $250 of the $1,104.15 paid, despite her own sales page defining the product as something fundamentally different from a resume package. The business entity behind Corporate Hottie Camp, J Iman Group LLC, was registered in Louisiana on June 12 2026, approximately five to six weeks before my engagement began, despite the seller's marketing claims of years of experience and hundreds of successful placements. I have filed complaints with the Federal Trade Commission, the Louisiana Attorney General, the North Carolina Attorney General, and Stan Store. A financial institution dispute is also pending. If you are considering purchasing any service from Corporate Hottie Camp or corporatehotticamp on Instagram, request in writing before payment exactly how job leads are sourced, whether submissions require your pre-approval, what happens if the provider exits the engagement early, and what specific deliverables are guaranteed in each phase. Get every answer in writing before you pay anything. Most concerning is the seller's response after being confronted with documented evidence of these failures. Rather than honoring the terms of the service she sold, she attempted to reframe a 90 day active placement partnership as a completed resume delivery service and offered $250 of the $1,104.15 paid as full resolution. This is particularly troubling given that her own published sales page explicitly states this is not a resume package. A seller who misrepresents her service, delivers defective work, exits the engagement early, and then attempts to redefine what was purchased to avoid accountability is not operating with the integrity that consumers deserve. Proceed with extreme caution.

Home Improvement

We needed our garage door repaired, the one spring was broke and I was afraid the other spring might break and trap our vehicles inside. After looking through the internet this company sounded just like what we needed, the website didn’t have any emails but just a phone number. It was after 4:30pm but I called anyway to see if they would come out or make an appointment. An operator answered without using the company name which I thought was strange (red flag). She told me someone can come out in the next couple of hours to give a quote. In about half an hour another person called me back and said a technician would arrive in about an hour. The technician arrived in 35 minutes with a helper in an unmarked vehicle, both were very friendly but no company uniforms (another red flag). He said he needed to evaluate my door and then he would give me a quote. He didn’t just evaluate the door, while I was in the house he took the door apart before giving me a quote. I went back out to meet them and saw the door apart, he then gave me a verbal quote listing the labor and the 2 springs pricing. I thought it was a little bit high but I wasn’t sure what the cost should be and he was bashing the original companies work saying they used undersized equipment. So I had them proceed with the work, during the install they claimed they only had 1 of the quoted springs on the truck so they were giving me an upgraded spring for the same price. Also during the installation they said I needed the 2 drums replaced but they would give them to me at their cost and no mark up. There wasn’t anything wrong with my drums but once again they bashed the original contractors work saying the drums were undersized. After everything was completed they gave me the invoice and everything was doubled in cost, they said the quote they gave me was for one spring and not both even though I agreed to replace both. I’ve never been scammed so bad in my life, I was out a $1000 dollars. The so called 5 year warranty didn’t even have any detail or numbers to call.

I also don't have a car in D.C. for it to be a traffic related debt so I tried to call the number to find out more about this supposed debt. I reached an AI customer service rep who asked me for my first and last name, the last 4 digits of my social security number, and my birthdate before claiming that it couldn't locate my account and saying it would transfer me to a live representative but it just restarted the loop that ended up with the same AI agent. I then tried to open the link in the text but it also led nowhere. I am so sick of getting so many scam calls and scam texts but this one looked like it might be real.

On the afternoon of August 3rd, I applied for a personal loan with Lending Star USA. Shortly after, I spoke with a customer service representative over the phone to discuss the amount and terms of the loan. I asked for a $1,500 loan over the course of three years. After the phone call, the loan application and link verifications were completed. I downloaded the two-page agreement to review the terms of the loan. In order to get the loan, I had to send the company money for the insurance checks via Apple Pay or Venmo. I did that multiple times over the course of the week of August 3rd. Throughout that week, I communicated with John Cooper. He gave me instructions on how to send the money for the insurance checks either via Apple Pay or Venmo. On the afternoon of August 7th, Citibank told me that my account was under review due to the deposit of the checks. Four days later, they told me that the deposited checks were fake. As a result, I had to start a new checking account with a different bank. Not only did I not receive the $1,500 loan from Lending Star USA. I lost over $2,500 from my bank account as well.

Online Purchase - Starcraft Network Limited

I am filing this complaint regarding Starcraft Network Limited after paying $46.19 for merchandise that I never received. The company provided conflicting shipping information and delivery dates and eventually supplied a USPS tracking number as supposed proof that my order had been delivered. I personally took that tracking number to my local USPS Post Office in Rainier, Washington. The Rainier Postmaster investigated it and provided me with a signed written letter confirming that the tracking number supplied by the merchant was delivered to a different PO Box and was NOT addressed to me or my PO Box #700. The Postmaster specifically advised that the company should either resend my merchandise or refund my money. I repeatedly attempted to resolve this with the merchant. I also disputed the transaction through PayPal and provided PayPal with the written statement from the Postmaster. PayPal has now denied my claim three times despite this USPS documentation. I have also discovered a public Facebook group titled “PayPal is letting StarCraft Network Limited scam customers,” with approximately 2,200 members, containing complaints from other consumers regarding this company. I understand that other consumers’ allegations do not prove my individual claim, but I believe the number and similarity of the complaints are relevant and should be investigated. I have since contacted my bank and am pursuing a Mastercard merchandise-not-received dispute. I can provide the Postmaster’s signed letter, merchant correspondence, tracking information, PayPal dispute records and other supporting documentation. Requested resolution: I want a full refund of $46.19. I also want my experience documented so that BBB and other consumers are aware of the delivery and tracking practices I experienced with Starcraft Network Limited.
