Sweepstakes/Lottery/Prizes - Sweepshark Social Casino
This website has people buy fake gaming coins as a cover for them selling "free" sweepstakes coins, except the prices of each package match the amount of sweepstakes coins you receive. The winnings from playing using sweepstakes coins is promoted as being able to be redeemed for cash, but when you attempt to redeem your winnings, they take most of it and everything left in your account while quoting a rule that basically says they can take your winnings away from you at their discretion without having to give a reason. Even if the "free" coins are paid for, they will say that the winnings were earned based off of a promotion and that their decision is irreversible. And on top of that, they'll let you win until you make an actual purchase. Once you make a purchase you will lose everything almost immediately and they will again send you to read a rule that says that they have no obligation to tell you anything about how their platform works in any legitimate way.

Phishing - Bbfile.com
I got an email from a company I thought I was working with but it turns out it was not. They swooped in and sent me a link for a payment for filing an annual report.
They charged me a fee, and did not actually file a report for me. Nor would I have had them do it to the state they claimed they did it for. I realized pretty quickly after the payment was made.
They have a website and it that states they provide refunds, but I have gotten no answer from the email and their phone is disconnected.
BBfile.com is the name they claim and it was for $234 (which I thought I was paying to the company I actually work with to keep me compliant in another state).

Home Improvement - Driveway Paving Scam - Itinerant Contractor
Company rep approached me, claiming he had extra material and in addition to resurfacing my neighbor's driveway, they would resurface mine for a good price, They were to add 2.5 inches of blacktop, top to bottom. 1/3 of the way through, they ran out of material. Claimed they could not get more that day due to accident at supplier source. They finished the next day. Issues: there is a very visible "seam" at stop/start point and after 3 months (with a 2 year guarantee in writing) cracks began to develop, Particularly on lower 2/3 of driveway. Severe cracking. Company owner will not honor the 2 year guarantee without me paying for materials. Scammer....They cashed my check immediately.

Hey, this is Donovan Monroe. I called your phone twice, but for some reason your phone is going straight to voicemail. The reason why I'm calling is because I have some documents that are being tied directly to your social, an all-state issued ID that you may possess, it also says on here that an asset search is also being conducted too. So if you receive this message and you have not received a red folder or green folder of documents in the mail. You need to contact me in my office as soon as possible. Now I will have a notary in the office later today to sign and stamp all paperwork. Now, I do understand that this message is somewhat vague, but at the same time, I don't feel comfortable leaving results of a private matter on a voicemail box that can be overheard by a 3rd party or another person. So once again, this is Donovan. I'm leaving the office about 90 minutes earlier than usual today for my daughter's soccer tournament, which actually begins this later this afternoon. So again, when you receive this message. Just reach out to me and I'm gonna explain everything to you in a simple way for you to understand and obviously make the best decision. Take care.

I ordered a supplement online from a company called "Purelia" in early June for $34.98. I placed a one time order and opted out of the subscription option because I wanted to try it first and see how it worked before I committed to a subscription. Well, I received the product and noticed that there is an ingredient in it that I am allergic to so decided not to take it and not to choose any future subscription. Well, on July 3, 2026, I was charged again for the same amount. I did not authorize this subscription or additional charge. When I reached out to the company and they said that there should be a link in my emails from them where I can cancel anytime free of charge - there are no links anywhere. I explained via email that I never signed up for a subscription and that I didn't authorize any future charges and wanted it cancelled immediately with no further charges and no further shipments and they just stopped responding. There is no link in my emails and when I login to my account on their website, there is no way to even see my card information or to delete it, or to cancel anything. It is all very scammy. I called the phone number they have listed, 218-543-2824, multiple times. It is a Minnesota number. Each time it is the same thing - they say I am #5 in the queu and then I wait for my turn and once I get down to #1, they hang up on me. Every single time it is the same and I have found reports online of the same thing happening to other people. I believe this was/is a scam and I don't know how to make it stop. They keep charging me $34.98/month. I have notified my bank's fraud department.

When I ask for a case number, there was not one when I asked for more information about the “complaint made against me“ there was silence. I was given a website www.mercertanner.com and a repeated name of the representative “Mike Anderson“ and a number I could reach him at 803-859-1662.
I did not give any information about myself to this person, and I will just continue to block the multiple numbers with different area codes and report them as spam in the future.

Online Purchase - Mini dachshund puppies for adoption / Pet Scam
I found this account through Facebook for mini dachshunds for sale. I thought I did enough research into the account before reaching out about their information. They provided pictures and videos on the account of people picking up the puppies, in which are locations I could recognize locally. When I reached out to them, I did not provide where I was to see if it was real. They informed me they are in Emmett Idaho selling for $600. They required a deposit of $250. After proceeding I was informed they were taking the puppy to the vet for a final checkup before going to a new home. After that visit they told me I had to pay the vet $200 for endorsement papers, which I found odd. After the appointment they messaged me stating I had to pay $400 for rabies shot and examination, which I had refused to pay. I told the seller multiple times I DO NOT have this kind of money and have a baby I need to provide for. They passed this off for me. The day of delivery the guy messaged me stating there had been a family emergency and he cannot meet up for pick-up. He arranged for a puppy delivery system through Happy Paws Delivery for me to get the puppy. He paid for the delivery to get the puppy. But once they puppy got picked up I got an email with tracking information along with a message stating I needed to rent a thermalized cage for $880 due to the heat and that this payment would me 99% refunded. very suspicious. By this point I told them multiple times that I wanted to cancel and get a full refund as I don't have the money for this. I was fooled and manipulated multiple times about how the puppy is real and that him and his family take pride in their dachshunds and small business. Continued to tell me how I've proven myself to be the right fit for this puppy and proven my love and connection to her. He would state he would try to help me with the $880. I was struggling to get this, and he would only come up with $200 to "help" me which I found weird because I just paid him $600 for the puppy. and even after that cage payment I GOT ANOTHER message about needing insurance for the delivery for rent of $1500 which would be refunded after delivery as well. This is where AGAIN I tried to cancel and get my money back, but he would not let me.
I am at a loss for the love I had connected to this puppy from the pictures and sad to know it was fake and fooled for my mistakes. Not only that I but now I am struggling more than before for the amount of money I lost that I needed for providing my baby. I feel so stupid. I only proceeded from thinking I was getting a refunded and the power of manipulation this person had.
I have multiple pictures and chats saved on my phone if you would like this provided. I also have a report # provided from the report made to the police.

Unfortunately in wound up in Urgent Care on May 7, with a ********* ** *** *** ****** ** **** *********** ******* ***** *** **** ** ***** ** ****. We therefore had to cancel the trip and he then was sent to ********** ******** Emergency on May 11.
I had received the 2 bags the week before this happened and I never opened them because I was too busy. These bags are still in the boxes they came in with the label on the front of them.
I finally got a chance to contact them to tell them that I no longer was in need of this merchandise due to my circumstance with my husband still being under the care of the Doctors. I asked them by email if they could send me the address to return these boxes to so I could get my refund.
They emailed me back and said they would look into it.....since then we have emailed back and forth at least 10 times with no results.
I am wasting my time everyday looking at my emails for the address so I can send this merchandise back.
I am beside myself to have to deal with a company that is obviously not reputable while I have still been dealing with my husband's *********.
Please help me with this matter.

I just reported the scam not too long ago, but as I reply to your email, it told me that you don't take it email that way that I have to do it this way. But I reported a place called this marketplace who called John the phone and told you that to lie to to say that you don't have health insurance to get 95:00 to $1800 a month from the government for free, and they get a kickback. I just thought that I know that there's a lot of people out there that will probably do that and steal from the government. I'm not a thief. So since I reported them to you, I've had nothing but phone. Call after phone call after phone. Call non-stop, like every 5 minutes. I think now it's gone into harassment as well

Home Improvement
Drove up our driveway in a white pickup truck with lights on top to make it look like its a utility vehicle. The driver named Eddie, dressed as a utility worker, claimed they have asphalt that they need to dispatch because the site inspection failed in their original job site. He said his boss tasked him of finding another place to dispatch their asphalt which is "road grade" asphalt and that we would only be paying for the materials alone which was $4/sq.ft. which is supposed to be a bargain. He would not identify the location of their original job site. We initially agreed, signed a contract, and so came two bright red dump trucks, asphalt paver, asphalt compactor and a lot of crew which Eddie called his million dollar crew. Checked the website allwayzpaving.com and at first looked legit. But later found that the address is not a business address, but a residential address. Eddie is listed as the owner of the company though he is only 22 years old. This 'business' is actually licensed to do work in Maryland, but not licensed to do work in the state we live. So we put a stop on the check we issued. Because he could not cash the check, Eddie later came back and parked in our driveway, opened his door, but did not get out of his truck. He just sat there for a while then waved at us when he saw us looking through our window. We called the police, but he left before the police arrived.

Counterfeit Product
Ordered the RuckusBall, ordered one and paid through PayPal. Order confirmation indicated that I ordered 2. Tracking number indicated that order would be coming from China. Contacted Ruckus and tried to cancel my order, was told that it was already processed so they couldn't cancel it, but once received, I could return it for a refund if I wasn't satisfied. Then received an email stating that orders were delayed because fabric didn't meet inspection and they had to remanufacture them with another covering. Again tried to cancel and was told my order wasn't part of the delay so I couldn't cancel. Received order approximately 3 months after placing order. Wasn't satisfied with the order and emailed them that I wanted to return it and receive a refund. No response has been received.

Online Purchase - Refusal to Honor Refund Policy
Website is advertised as to extend online services monthly through different gaming sites. However doing so requires codes. When purchased they send you an email to use one of there accounts and they want you to put on of them onto your device to utilize the extension. I would never put someone else's email/account on my device. So when I have asked for my money back because they have a "hassle free" 14 day return policy they are fighting me on it stating no where does it state there is a code. Which is true but they have strategically placed "reviews" from people stating they recieved there code promptly and it works great.

Online Purchase
I attempted to purchase the Dr. Melaxin product from the Dr. Melaxin Korean company, specifically the calcium balm, through Facebook. Since then, I have made several attempts to contact their customer service to address an overcharge and request a refund. Unfortunately, each time I called, the representatives were rude and hung up on me. I paid for the product on July 6, 2026, and when I checked my bank account immediately afterward, I noticed the overpayment. Despite my repeated calls to resolve this issue, I have not received any help from the company. They have not refunded my money. They have my debit card information

I applied to this job on either zip recruiter or Indeed.. I sent them all documents including I9 documents, copy of my State ID, my direct deposit to begin working with them as a data entry clerk for IDgenomics. I have been texting someone named Brenda Stiles who is a recruiting manager, who told me on the Meets app to speak to my training manager Davis Tompson, the company claimed to paying for devices to work with them, like a MacBook, iPhone, printer and software, stating they would send a check to my account... I questioned it as to why they don't use zoom, and why would they need to deposit a check into my account for devices that they are paying for.... I googled their address, but then I went onto the Better Business Bureau, I found no company listed as the IDgenomics located at Seattle, Washington and when I look at the business website, it said temporary closed, when I tried to call Ms. Brenda Stiles and Davis Tompson both parties have turn off their chat to offline.... I locked my bank account and now... im here reporting.. all I was trying to do is get a job to work from home
