Counterfeit Product - Counterfeit Product

Ordered a few outfits. I received an outfit that was completely and totally different than what I ordered. Not even the same design or pattern. They just sent whatever they felt like. The other outfit was to have bell bottoms, which were NOT on the pants, and the onesie I ordered was to be a size 18-24 months and it’s totally a 4T. When reaching out to the company, they basically shrugged it off as it was my issue, offered a $3 compensation on a $90 order or if I wanted a refund I needed to pay to return the items. Buyer beware. Do not order from this company!

Employment - Handmade

The scam involves having you invest money with the promise of a 30% reward on your investment. They lead you to believe you will become an employee and be sent materials with a set price per piece completed. That is not the case. They lead you through this charade of small tasks that pay out $4 to $8 per task. Upon the last task, you are required to invest $100.00 and complete a merchant task to continue, supposedly to receive a code for a refund, a $500.00 VIP employee bonus, 30% of that amount, plus your original investment. It is fraud because they never pay out the incentive. Instead, they continue to make you jump through hoops until you can no longer continue paying the requested investment fees. They build you up with small payouts in order to gain larger amounts through merchant fees.

I was offered a job as a Data Entry Clerk for $30/hr although I will only be given $28/hr during training, which is supposed to be on the 13th of July, good fpr 2 weeks. After the 2 weeks training, that's the time the $30/hr would start. I was advised that I will be given a free laptop and a work setup and that I would need to purchase a software for data privacy purposes. I was given a $960 check which then I was asked to download cashapp since the website https://www.blockchaindatamgmt.com/ only accepts payments via cashapp. I then transferred $900 from my bank acct to cashapp then the HR (SARAH GOLDBERG) told me she'll contact me again once it's done.

Counterfeit Product - Ellie Seattle

This was a pop up ad stating the company owned by two sisters were having a “Farewell Sale “. Their website states ‘ELLIE SEATTLE creates timeless stained-glass animal lamps designed to bring warmth, character, and meaning into the home. Each piece blends traditional craftsmanship with thoughtful design, focusing on quality, durability, and lighting that transforms everyday spaces into something truly special.’ The pictures on their website made the dachshund lamp that I ordered look like a beautiful stained glass lamp and appeared to be a large size. However what I received was a small cheap plastic lamp that looks like a child’s toy and nothing like a dachshund. Plus it had a crack in it so I immediately contacted them by email with photos of the damaged lamp and said I wanted to return it for a full refund. They responded with an offer to refund 25% of the purchase price and I declined because I wanted the full refund. Turns out I would have to pay for it to be shipped to China and the cost of shipping would have been more than what I paid for this cheap lamp. In the end I accepted the 25% refund which came to $13.74. The total I paid was $54.95 plus a $5.50 tip which I added because I wanted to support a home grown family business. Little did I know that it was a total scam! The item I received looked nothing like the pictures on the website. I would attach them all if I could but it only allows one photo. This is totally false advertising, and I was robbed!!

Employment - Freight Metro Inc

About a month ago I was contacted via email for a job offer but the email was actually from my junk mail but i didn't think anything of it because some of my deleted correspondence ends up in the junk file and I had reactivated my Indeed, LinkedIn, and ZipRecruiter notifications. so I contacted "Freight Metro Inc", Emily Slater HR Hiring Manager, via phone number and then through email. All onboarding for the job was done on the 4th and 5th of June 2026. On the 6th of June my first assignment was delivered by Fedex which was a"test package" to train me on how to handle and ship packages. i followed all instructions which were to check to make sure the package was in good condition and to upload pictures of the packing list and item without opening the manufacturer's' packaging. I received a total of 8 package throughout the month of June. As of July 6, which is supposed to be payday, attempting to contact a manager, accounting department and HR, I got no response. When I went to login to my work dashboard I wasn't able to login anymore. Kept getting a invalid username or password. I haven't changed anything as for a login credentials, I still attempted to contact someone even via phone call and I got no answer. My suspicions were through the roof so I google remote job scams and the company - Freight Metro were on the list of scam remote jobs, then the prompts and links lead me to the BBB.

Counterfeit Product - Carmel by The Sea

I saw an ad on Facebook and it showed a picture of several items and also a story about two sisters who after 11 years they were closing their boutique and everything was on sale. See attachment below. I placed an order on June 16 and didn't receive the items until July 1. I looked up tracking information when I was waiting for the items to be delivered and saw that the package was coming from China, so I did some more researching. When I received the items they didn't look like the pictures and the quality of the material was not good. I knew right away they were from China. I tried to find am phone number to call them but there was only an e-mail address so I e-mailed them and told them the items did not match the pictures or the descriptions and the material was not quality material. Also the only tag on the clothing was the size and i wanted nmy money back. Please see below the response I received from the company. Thank you for reaching out and I'm truly sorry to hear the items didn't meet your expectations! As covered under our 30-day money back guarantee, you are of course always welcome to return the items to our warehouse in Asia for a full refund. As outlined in our return policy, return shipping is at your expense and a $10 administration fee per item will be deducted from your refund. Depending on your location, international return shipping can be quite costly. Since we're committed to reducing our environmental footprint, here's what I can offer instead: Option 1: 100% store credit, valid for 12 months and usable on any item in our store. Option 2: A 15% refund back to your original payment method, and you keep the items. Both options can be processed within 12 to 24 hours. Which works best for you? Best regards,

On May 30th I went searching for a high powered garden hose nozzle and ran across the Jetterix website. I watched a couple videos that confirmed the company's claim for a pressure washer nozzle that fits on a standard garden hose that works as well as pressure washer. Based on this information, along with the fact Jetterix was offering 60% discount and 30-day, money back guarantee, I decided to purchase the Jetterix pressure washer nozzle for the $65.94 via PayPal. PayPal charged my account the same day and I was suppose to receive an email with shipping information, but never received. So, I reached out to the company asking them to cancel and refund me the purchase price, however I was told that my order couldn't be canceled because it was in transit, this was on June 20th. I also, inquire about the tracking information that I was suppose to receive within 24-48 hours of when the order was placed (never received).

Employment

I was offered an entry-level IT job from a company that I had never heard of, but I later found out that they were quite reliable and were based in the U.S. I was wanting to get an IT job for some time, and this was an unexpected offer that was willing to pay very well ($38.00 / hour) and had great benefits. I was very thrilled to have finally gotten something, and I logged on to a Teams chat with the (I thought at the time) hiring manager for Klarity Health, Mrs. Patricia Robert. We had a great chat and explained my case for being a great candidate and was hired immediately. However, they then asked what my email address, phone number, mobile plan provider, physical address, city, state, postal code, the name of the bank that I use, and a photo. I originally thought that it was just standard procedure for the IT department. They then said that they were going to deposit $2,000 worth of money to my spending account, which again, I thought was for purchasing equipment for the job, as they had previously stated, and the transaction went through without a hitch. However, they then asked that since the money wouldn't have been able to be used, since I was a brand new account at my bank, and that it was under a holding period that I provide $500 worth of cash to them that I would then be reimbursed later through the company. I started to ask certain questions regarding W2 and why exactly I needed to be compensated for exactly, which they then replied saying that it was for proprietary software and previous incidents with other employees. I then asked them where they got my resume from exactly, and they replied that they did a recruitment round on Indeed, which I hadn't even applied for an account at all due to personal reasons. I then blocked the email and filed a complaint to Klarity Health directly, but by that point, they had my personal information for two days at that point.

Counterfeit Product - GetGlycoLean

Ordered products from getmindboost.net. Products were GlycoLean drops and GLP1-Max pills. Paper work and video gave 180 day return policy if not satisfied. When I called getmindboost.net customer service they claimed that it was only a 60 day return policy. I explained to them what my paperwork said and that it was explained to me that need to give the product at least 3 months to see results. So basically out over $600 for a product that does not work and that the return policy is bogus.

Online Purchase - Guardio

? BBB Scam Report I signed up for what I understood to be a 3-day trial for Guardio because I wanted to evaluate the service before deciding whether to subscribe. After enrolling, I immediately attempted to set up the product. During setup, I discovered that I could not actually use the service because it required a VPN, something I did not have. This requirement was not clear to me before I enrolled. Since I was unable to use the product, I decided to cancel during the trial period. I searched the website and account area for a way to cancel but was unable to locate a working cancellation method. The following day, shortly after midnight, I received an alert from Discover informing me that my credit card had been charged $119.88 for an annual subscription. I had not been able to use the service and had already been attempting to cancel. I contacted my credit card company and disputed the charge because: * I enrolled believing I was receiving a short trial. * I was unable to use the service because of the VPN requirement. * I attempted to cancel before intending to continue with any paid subscription. * I typed in Guardio phone on google and up came Guardio information. I stated what happened and gave my information, but when they asked for money I realised it was not Guardio. Next I asked Chapt GPT how to contact Guardio and was given directions. Eventually I made it to the website and cancelled the trial within in the trial period, but unable to remove my credit card number.. My goal is not simply to recover my money. I believe consumers should be clearly informed of any requirements needed to use the product and should be provided with an easy, accessible way to cancel during a trial period. I am submitting this report so other consumers can make informed decisions and so the company’s enrollment and cancellation process can be reviewed. ? Guardio states it should keep the funds. I never used the service because I was unable to complete the setup after discovering the VPN requirement.

Identity Theft - Varxnex Holdings LLC

I discovered this company while receiving public business registration records to my home address and found that the company was associated with a residential address that I do not recognize as being connected to or have any business with. I did not authorize this business to use my address, have no relationship with the company, and was not contacted by the company prior to discovering the registration. After researching the company, I found additional online complaints and reports raising concerns about possible fraudulent or misleading business practices. I am reporting this matter because the use of an unrelated residential address as a business location and mailing address raises concerns about the accuracy of the company’s registration information. I recommend that consumers verify business information carefully, confirm who they are dealing with, and be cautious when a company’s public records or contact information appear inconsistent or cannot be independently verified.

when my son showed me the email, I figured it was a scam, it said that $486.95 would be taken from his account for his purchase of a gun which he did not purchase [ he can not own a gun anyway] but it had a phone number to call if you wanted to cancel so I called the number from my phone when the person answered he asked me for the invoice number so I told him what it was, then he asked me if I was calling from an Android phone I said yes,then he told me to go to the app.store on my phone and open it,I told him that I was not going to open anything on my phone and to cancel the order because it was not ours and he quickly hung up on me.Scam averted.
