He then asked for my Spectrum account number and my name. I didn't give him anything. (shouldn't they have this information already?) He called back again.

Employment

The lady Erika Schroeder contacted me through email with a Teams link for an interview process. The interview was never a video, the interview was a text thread. Once "hired" there was no background check, no formal paperwork, just information asking what bank i used and my address to send me a check to buy the supplies needed for the job. That was suspicious instantly. I have emails and the fedex screenshot to show where this business that was once a legit business, dissolved in 2025, they (the scammers) are using this business to get people to cash the check, it bounces, and they have access to your account some how. I never let them have access to that. But they have my address. That's scary. They need to be caught.

Online Purchase - ByNyla

I was looking for a bag for University and came across this website from an ad I saw on social media. I had looked up the return policy and the background of the company. Website states that the bags are designed in Paris however does not agree with the return address : Wu Xi, Building 4, 4th Floor, 58 Baiye Road, Dongguan, Guangdong, 523000, China. Phone: +86 19329021556 There have been more reports about this address, however on a different site that sells clothing. There also always appears to be a summer sale going on that has a countdown which forces interested buyers to purchase when the bags are almost $50 cheaper. The bag I received was of very cheap material, had a very bad odor, and didn't even feel like leather. In the reviews it also appears that the same person under multiple names have written reviews for the most popular bag (The Margot bag).

Employment

I am recently retired, and was looking on Indeed for a simple online job to supplement my pension until I turn 62. I received a text from Indeed for the job with Fox Network Group LLC. It was advertised as that you get paid to watch YouTube Videos. Once I started then they asked for funds to be sent to a Fox Network Work Account (you have to buy cryptocurrency take is then transferred to that account). Once the funds were tranferred then you need to complete a trade transaction on that platform and you receive a profit for 30, 40, or 60% depending on the “merchants” orders. This went on for two days with small amounts and I was able to withdrawal the profit amount. On the three day the amounts increased and due to a series of errors I was unable to withdrawal the funds. I had to pay a fee to correct the error that I caused. Once that fee had paid I tried withdrawing the funds and each time the withdrawal is denied and I was told I had to come up with more money to unfreeze the cash. Currently I have deposited $100,000 and still unable to withdrawal the cash. The person I am dealing with admitted that Fox is going to continue to ask for more and more money.

Counterfeit Product

Website looked very up scale. Great reviews. After ordering, received no tracking information. When I contacted them they said my shoes were in Chicago, so I should receive them within a few days. It was at least a week later in a very poorly packaged bag that was basically duct taped shut. Then had very different shoes then I had ordered and extremely poor quality. I contacted them and they said after reviewing my pictures of what I ordered and what I received, that I did receive the correct ordered shoes. They are blind and have very poor customer service. They are clearly the wrong shoes. They want me to pay shipping back because that is their policy. That’s around $50! I’ve been fighting with them for over a month to just refund me because I would understand their policy IF I received the correct shoes. 3 times now they have said someone should contact me after the “review “ it all. Will be disputing charges as well with my bank.

I placed a $100 cannabis delivery order through https://greencannabisdispensary.com/ and paid the seller using Cash App. The order was supposed to be delivered in Missoula, Montana, but nothing was delivered. After receiving the payment, the seller claimed that my name could not be found in a verification system. They said a “Declared Value Fee” was required under new state dispensary regulations before the delivery could proceed. They directed me to https://stateverifymc.com/certificate-of-insurance/ to pay an additional supposedly refundable insurance fee. I did not pay the additional fee. The insurance demand, pressure to pay immediately, and claim that the fee was required by state regulations appear to be fraudulent. The original $100 has not been refunded, and no merchandise was received.

Online Purchase - Online Purchase Scam

I joined a page on facebook, Livestock Show Supplies. I've found now that the scammer is the administrator for that facebook page. He controls all posts and comments. I contacted him to purchase show equipment that he had advertised. I used my debit card to add money to Cashapp and then paid him. His name is Sam Silver. He told me that shipping would be a flat rate of $40. The sale seemed normal up to that point. He collected my cell phone number and email. Later, I was contacted by the place where he said he took the product for shipping. They told me that I would have to pay $250 insurance fee before it could be shipped. I did not give them the money as it seemed to be a scam. The shipping business was called Global Transit Delivery Agency. They had a website and produced a tracking number. They asked me to verify the tracking number. They then told me there was a problem and it had to be insured before shipping. The product price was only $300. That much for insurance seemed odd. I contacted "Sam Silver" again via messenger on fb and expressed my concerns that he didn't not mention the insurance to me. I asked him for a refund. He then blocked me on facebook from his personal account and the Livestock show supplies page.
