BBB Scam Tracker

My family member saw an AI ad impersonating Bill Gates endorsing the “MindBoost” supplement. The ad was AI, but my family member did not recognize it as such and purchased the supplement anyway. This company needs to be stopped before they scam others.

I got an unsolicited payment of 0.01 PHP via PayPal on March 11th. There was a memo that read: URGENT : STEPS NEEDED FOR YOUR RECENT PAYMENT. I did not contact them or click on any of the links. I did not send them any payment previous to this. It appears to be a phishing attempt.

He won money and was going to share it once I replied to his text.

After completing a survey for what I thought was the website for Lowe's, an "ad" popped up and said that I was a $500 gift card winner. I called the number and was speaking with an Indian man with a heavy accent. He had me download a "help desk pro" app which gave him access to my phone screen. He then had me use cash app and said that I would get a gift card from cash app. I filled out a form for my mailing address and stupidly included my SSN because he said it was for tax collection purposes for the IRS. Luckily, when I got to the end of his instructions, he tried to get me to pay out the money and I did not. I immediately turned off my phone to break the connection and once I restarted it, I uninstalled the app as well. Here is the phone number: 18775139766 Here is the website: https://lowesss.survvey.online/

84291 was the number used to text me but the form wouldn't let me add it. I've never applied for any business with that name. I've looked them up and they're a scam to collect information and to see if phone numbers are active.

Rokrgeek sells 3D wooden puzzles through their website. Easily confused with reputable brand - ROKR. They offer free shipping with a minimum purchase and a discount with a purchase of 3 puzzles. Ordered 3 for a total of $187 on 2/10. Followed tracking from China to Arlington Heights, Il where it stopped moving on 2/18. Company never responded to emails, contacts on Facebook Messenger nor contacts from PayPal. It is now 3/14. Fortunate to receive refund from PayPal because RokrGeek is a scam.

I made a purchase through their website, using PayPal’s pay in 4 option. All of the payments have been made and I still have not received the product. I made the purchase over a month a go! The company will not respond!! As others have experienced- this company takes customers money and never responds!!

I sent them photos of my ID and gave them my account and routing number

The website shows a gps tracker with sophisticated tracking. But what you actually receive is a cheap Bluetooth beeper only and it has no gps applications.

He pretended to be a Microsoft Tech Support Manager. He infected my computer with a virus and had me pay him to remove it. This happened about 8 times!

Order a set of custom cleats for my nephew. Sent the payment via Apple Pay then I sent the shipping cost plus money for some custom stamps and never received anything then to add insult to injury the shipping company this website uses ask for an additional $340 more on top of the $335 I had already sent for shipping a pair of cleats that only cost $165.

It was through a TikTok add that was showing a portable device that could run any game

Received 3 texts. First thanked me for joining CheckGo, including options to reply and email [email protected]. Second told me my application (I've never applied to CheckGo, let alone heard of it) has been reviewed and accepted. Third used the last 4 digits of my phone number as a reference to view my form with the link expiring in 12 hours.

A scammer has been calling my wife, my father in law, and mother in law trying to speak with my father in law. He won't say what it's about but he knows when he calls my wife that she is his daughter and when she calls my mother in law that she is his wife. He's claiming to be from a business but won't say where. When you try to call back it doesnt give any specific info but says extension 5 is busy and goes to voicemail. He has been calling multiple times a day trying to speak to my father in law about something and knows his address.

I received a deposit of 0.01 pounds to my PayPal account.

Bought item on March 3rd, 2026 received one email saying order completed. Sent two different request for item I I haven’t heard nothing and no shipping confirmation nothing. There site has no phone number, no address, just an email. My bank gave me a number to them with 402 area code saying it’s California, however, that area code serves Omaha and surrounding areas in Nebraska. Somebody needs to shut this business down.

I called this number after an issue with my debit card. They said they were my credit union’s after hours service during times of high call volume & they needed to transfer me. It then went to an automated system where they asked for name, card #, cvv, dob pin & l4 SSN. I didn’t give them all of this info & hung up because this did not seem like info my bank would request—especially the pin…Reporting to my credit union as wel!

I purchased a silk dress that was on sale from $350-$271. Although the material felt soft it was a shocking fit and of very poor quality/craftsmanship. It wasn't lined so you couldn't wear it even if it fitted. It had a Chinese label on it and came in a similar bag that Temu and Shein use.

I ordered about $72.00 worth of product from Evry Jewels, only to have it delivered with parts broken and some items missing. It has been over a month, and Evry Jewles has not responded. I have sent multiple messages. I never got a refund for my broken items or the items that were never sent, and they refuse to respond.

I ordered a neck massager and a lumbar relief pro. The neck massager worked, but the lumbar relief pro did not at all. I emailed several times for a replacement product with no response. So then I asked for a refund. Still no response. The cost of the lumbar relief pro was discounted to $124 since I purchased the neck massager. They have kept that additional $124 for a non-working product. It looks like they are mimicking the actual website of nervilabs.net and so I was marketed to through facebook, but corresponded directly through my email. I see now it is based out of Slovenia. It is a scam.

I paid for my bank card to get the items and the tracking number was sent to me it was fake.

Lied and took money from me and didn’t apply it to rent

Fred Fink was given a deposit for a chicken bbq in the amount of $1500. Mr.Fink cancelled the chicken bbq the day of the event claiming to be sick.

Their ad claims to bogo. When I placed my order they charged me full price. I was immediately notified by my credit card company that the purchase was suspicious. I tried several times to contact them via email to cancel my order but they refuse to reply.

Bought items published on Pinterest and the money directly paid using a credit card. The transaction was through WHOP website. Both the company Vivian’s jewelry and Whop are scammers

Said they were from business loans and calling about line of credit

Hello, I purchased a jumper cable power pack and air compressor device online from Surespark Shop back on 2/19/2026. I still have not received the product or a refund. I ended up having to go to my local USPS as I was informed that the item was delivered to the USPS. When I went to USPS, they tell me that the item was delivered to a different address than mine. I emailed Surespark on March 4, 2026 and they informed me that a refund would go out in 7days back to my card. I sent a follow up email about my refund and no response. Today is March 14, 2026 and still no refund. I am not sure if this is a fraudulent company or not. I just want my refund of $124.98. It is not my fault that a product that I ordered was mailed to the incorrect address. The Surespark email that was used in my email conversation was [email protected]. Thanks for your assistance with this matter.

saw the attached add on Youtube and placed order. Item received was not even close to item promoted. a childs toy is better made for fake teeth for halloween

As the OP reported, I received a text message asking me to a zoom interview in 2 days time for a Benefits Rep position. I had no record of applying to this company. A web search turned up this info, so I declined to even respond.

I ordered up the stitch anxiety plushie for my daughter who suffers with bad anxiety I ordered this over a month ago I never received it I get an email saying it was delivered to my post office and my post office disposed of it because it was perishable my post office never received it and the tracking number/letters my post office doesn’t use. They don’t use letters in their tracking info. Everything was a complete scam this really upset my daughter as she was waiting on this anxiety stitch plushie . And my money was stolen

I am getting 1:22 long voice mail message everyday for a $156,000 loan opportunity. The numbers used to call me are different each time but the number and message left on voice mail are identical each time they call.

The scammer was inquiring about buying my home. I shared no personal information.

They listed a Vintage 1932 car for sale and requested a wire transfer of $32,900, and promised the car would be shipped. I found out after the fact that this car was listed on several websites for sale. They car was never delivered.

The videos are stolen content from higher quality products. They charge you and then never respond when you attempt to get a refund (that they guarantee on the website)

I found a website from a TikTok shop called Attirevue. I ordered a package over 1 month ago. The item tracking said it was delivered BUT it was not. I reached out to a shady customer service which is just a bot. No phone number was provided for customer service.

Saw an ad on TilTok near Christmas for cheap Hey Dudes shoes and clothing. Initially thought it was legit and then made a purchase. It took forever to get any tracking details and then all of a sudden it says delivered. So I emailed them and told them it wasn’t and I mentioned I felt it was a scam. They said no and resent the products. Again got a tracking number (a lot quicker this time) and then after a couple of weeks shows delivered. So I emailed them again and expressed my concerns. They originally wanted to give me 70% refund but I called them out and I am supposed to get 100% refund but I’ll believe it when I see it. I have all the emails from them still. .

Met person on Instagram which moved to WhatsApp. Against my better judgment, I decided to follow the person's advice. Attempted to withdraw money (USDT) but Website rejected attempted withdrawal.

Purchased online home decor in Jan 2026 and never received it or received tracking info. Emailed in mid Feb and was told to expect the delivery in 3-5 days. It has been more almost 3 weeks.

Purchased a total of nine items via TikTok link using card payment a month later shipping stated delivered, but nothing was delivered. Attempted to request for a re-shipment of same items. Received another check waited for another 23 weeks nothing received. Overall, the total of two months now I have to wait another month for the refund.

I was contacted via Messenger by a person who called themselves Mary mo li stating I was randomly chosen to win $50k. I was asked to send a $100 gift card, & the package will be delivered to my residence. After I paid the $100 Gift card, this Mary mo li person then said that since my payment was delayed, I needed to send another $200. I told this person that i knew this was too good to be true. This person was insistent on me sending the extra $200 for the package to be delivered. I refused to send any additional money. This person even sent pictures of others with boxes in their hands. Theyve also sent a picture of a black male Fedex worker who will be delivering the box of cash. They wanted me to give my phone numbet to *****instead of Messenger. didnt give my info on****, but I did give my adress & phone numbet on Messenget. Ive deleted the info after I sent it. I stopped communicating with this person afterwards. Im gonna send a report to social media as well. I do have the full conversations on my Messenger page.

I recently received an email from a ‘Thomas William’ claiming to represent Iyuno Global LTD for a voice over job from [email protected]. I did the job and now get this email : YOUR PROJECT HAS BEEN REVIEWED AND APPROVED contact the payment manager now and say to him you were directed by me for your payment? https://Wa.me/+16833330309 I didn't click and reported the scam. Unfortunately, I've been working non stop for 72 hours and even paid a technician to help me. Thank you.

Fake job with a phone interview they sent me a fake gold bar to supposedly forward as a logistic job. I took it in. It was fake. I never contacted them again but they continue to contact saying they’re gonna call the police or whatever if I don’t correct the package and send it out anyways,

** ***** ******** ****** **** ***** * ***** **** ** ***** ***** ****** ** ********* *** *** *** ** ****** ** *** ****** ** ******* Around the end of January of this year, I began receiving texts from my lender of the car I recently purchased, August of 2025. I originally thought that these 986-67, texts, were spam, so I dismissed them. I then found, what I thought was a bill, addressed to me, with my address, in my actual mailbox. This “bill” had the photo, of the same make and model of my car; a Kia, Sorento. Also, when I saw the mail, I’m embarrassed to say that without really studying it, it really made me think that I was late in taking care of business with my car, this is the first time I ever bought a car. I thought that I had been dismissing an extra payment, all along. I called the number on  the “bill”, associating it with the previously dismissed texts from my car lender :  Action required. We’re switching loan payment providers. Please cancel your current recurring payment & set up a new one to avoid missed payments: link provided.. . The telephone number that I called to make a late payment to, is 1-844-763-0130 The texts were legitimate, the “bill”, mailed to me was not. I thought said, “bill”,  was associated with the DMV because it had a barcode on the front. The telephone number that I called to make a late payment to, is 1-844-763-0130, this number was provided in the “bill”.  When I called, the guy said his name was Landon and when I explained I was late, Landon told me that these payments were separate from my car payment the entire time and he said that he could fix it and make things right now by starting to make payments on it. I was still confused but I figured that I just didn’t quite remember everything from that day, that I bought the car. I tried to make the payment of 199.00. I got a notification on my phone from Wells Fargo email, that my card was declined. I was still on the phone with Landon, and he told me the payment declined, as well, so I asked him if I could call him back so I could try to pay it some other time. He then got angry and raised his voice and asked, “you don’t have the money at all?” and said, “How are you even driving that car!?” and he said he was going to try to give me break and if I didn’t send the 199.00 within two hours, otherwise I have violated the contract and he would have to report it and they would have to repossess my car.  I got really scared and I actually believed that it was really going to happen because I didn’t know if I could get the money from my dad. I called my dad to ask for the money and I’d pay him back. My dad sent me 200.00 right away.  I called them back and gave them the payment of 199.00. I told them it was a Visa, debit card number, and VIM. Landon said he was going to send me information and future payment arrangements and I agreed and that was that, I was relieved to catch a break in time. Then I started really thinking about it, when I was calm, on Saturday. So, I made the payment on the 5th of March 2026, and began rethinking it on the following Saturday, March 7th, 2026. So, Saturday, I took the mailer to my auto dealer and asked why they didn’t tell me about this before. The guy at the dealership, where I bought the car, took a look at the “bill” I received in the mail, and already paid, he and told me it was a scam. I went into the Wells Fargo ****** ** ******** *** ***** ** *** ****** ******** *** * ******** ** ***** * ****** *** ***** ************ They cancelled my card and said a new card is on the way. I called customer service for Wells Fargo, and told them everything. I asked for a supervisor and when I spoke with her, *** **** *** *****. She said that it would be okay, because I was clearly, coerced. She said that they manipulated me into paying using anger and threats, which is something that a real company would not do.  She also told me to gather as much information as possible to prevent this from happening other people and make a police report.  So, I couldn’t do anything, because everything was closed. I had to work over the weekend anyway. My family and I started getting all the information photocopied at the library on Monday, we missed work and lost a lot of money and had to pay for all the copies, and with all the notes on the documents I really hope that you can somehow catch these guys. We made notes, on all the documents showing the texts, dates, numbers, the bill, the number we called on the bill, (which when we called it again, it doesn’t even work). We made copies directly from my bank account at Wells Fargo and took photos showing the today’s date of March 10, 2026. We photocopied the paper the branch manager gave me, after I had to get a new debit card. The color copied report of sale, from the auto dealer, when I bought the car. When I looked at the Better Business Bureau website, they want me to upload my documents, so I took photos of the notes on the documents. The same information that is going to the BBB, is going to the police report and will given to Wells Fargo as well. Thank you for your help, ***** ***** *** ********** **** **** ***** ****** *** * ** ***** ******** ** ***** ***** * ******************** ***** **** ******** ***** ****** ******* ** * ** ******* ***** ***** **** * *** *** **** ******* ****** * **** ***** **** ****** **** ** **** ********* ** ******* * **** **** ****** *** ****

I received multiple text messages from different phone numbers from "Chris with Signal Surveys" with a link to the supposed survey site. I did not interact with these messages but from my research and the fact they were oit of the blue, I'm pretty sure it is a phishing scam.

A CHARGE SHOWED UP ON MY CHARGE CARD. I DID NOT APPROVE THIS. IT STATES *HTL DSCNT

Receiving 6 of these calls per day it seems like, even on Sundays. I try to convince them to send me an email, it never works. They tell me they will but then they never do. Trying to get company details to pass onto FTC.

After looking at reviews from other experiences, I realized this was a scam and now I’m worried because I provided alot of my personal information!!!
