I purchased 3 items of clothing from the website of what appeared to be a mother and daughter owned boutique in Casper, Wy. What I received were ill fitting items made from cheap material, similar to what is used in Halloween costumes. When I attempted to return, I learned this company is actually located in China. They told me to keep my items and continued offering me percentage refunds when I requested a return address. UPS quoted me over $200 in mailing charges for the address they finally provided. Please note, this company uses multiple domain names, Lucy and Claire, Lucy and Clara, Lucy and Clare.

At 5:24 p.m. today, I received a phone call from this number on my landline (540-657-0281). When the phone rang, I answered, said “hello,” and heard static on the line and a male voice. The person said, Oh gosh, can you hear me?” I said “yes” and there was a prolonged silence. I said, “Hello?” and the person came back on the line. Then I hung up. I have heard about scams where the caller prompts you to say “Hello” and splices the audio to set you up for financial theft. I am therefore reporting this call. It was very strange and I have never heard of any organization that identifies itself as “Police Committee.”

They called me stating that they were a compliance service with Jordan Williams working for the state and that several complaints had been filed against me in my county. They then went on to state that this serves as my legal notification so I can’t say I was never told, but I can contact my attorney if I want to. They then said that I had until 2 PM to respond or I will be served accordingly. They told me to call 855-744-2790 and use claim number 147994 6193. They also threatened to contact my place of employment and my home address.

Counterfeit Product

I saw an ad on Instagram for Articulating Plastic flags with imbedded magnets. Original cost was $24.97. I ended up paying $38.97, 37% tax. It took two months for the items to arrive. The first tracking had the items end up in San Diago. Then it stopped. I contacted PayPal to cancel the order, and all of the sudden, they were reshipping. When they arrived, they looked nothing like the ones shown in the ad. I tried to attach one to my metal door and it just slid down. The magnets were not imbedded and could not hold the weight of the material. Contacted PayPal. If I send the items back, I will get my money back. It cost $22.40 to send the items back. That is 57% of the purchase price.

The bags were nothing like the description which said they were individually handmade by a lady named Martha who lived in the Blue Ridge Mountains of North Carolina. Quilted and hand appliqued, with a tag inside with her name, and there was more description none of which was true. When I tracked the package I could see it was coming from China and the address to return the bags (at my expense) was Hong Kong.

I received a medical bill for a hospital visit I DID NOT have (Date of Service 5-10-2026). It shows total charges of $1534.00, a payment of $981.76 (supposedly made by me -- but I have medical insurance, and the listed hospital has this information), with a balance due of $552.24. Sound Physicians has a high risk rating (87/100) and is not a BBB business. I doubt that Kaweah Hospital is responsible. But I have no information about the NP (Daryl Magada) who is listed as providing service at that location AND is listed as employed there. In addition to a public notice of this scam sent to the American Hospital Association, I want any indication of "non-payment" removed immediately from my credit score, and a letter to me stating that it is clean.

I was informed I was a “candidate” for a remote position. I was asked to reply if I was interested, so I replied. I immediately received a message with a long list of pay, job details, and benefits info. The only identifiable info I provided was my first initial and my last name, along with my email address in my initial reply. I did not provide any additional info nor have I engaged after my initial reply. I was skeptical after looking up the company website and didn’t see any job openings. I also received a similar scam email from another sender and the message in that email ended up being almost identical to this one.
