Online Purchase - Bear Trail Bikes
Buyer beware, my wife and I both took advantage of the credit on e- bikes and paid out of pocket for difference on 2 bikes, that was end of December 2025 eta 8-12 weeks. They sent emails saying more and more delays, then no emails last 6 weeks, so fast forward 5 months still no bikes, but they still have our money. I filled out contact form several weeks ago to get an update, no response, I called, no one picked up, left a message, no response, sent an email to their designated customer service email no response. So far they've taken money, not provided said products, are way past estimated delivery windows, not replied to any communications to get this cancelled OR pivot to other bikes, OR provide an ETA with a deadline any of which would have been appropriate resolutions, instead ZERO responses to ANY of their communication channels is infuriating. Don't do business here. Likely scam

Employment - Cargovera Couriers
This job called me to set up an interview for this position of “shipment checker”. I couldn’t speak at that very moment so she sent me an email that was trying to set up an interview and had a onboarding video attached explaining the company and position I’d be hired as. I called her back after watching what seemed to be a real video, and answered several questions about if I would be able to receive packages to my address and if I would be able to take them to FedEx, USPS or UPS. They gathered my address, email address and most importantly a picture of my Drivers license, front, back and had me take a selfie with the drivers license in my hand. Once I told my friend about it, he mentioned he had the exact same type of job under a different company name that turned out to be a scam. I looked this company “Cargovera Couriers” up on google and it says it’s WIDELY complained and reported to BBB for being a scam and fraudulent company. Please help and reach out , I don’t have any further updates as this just happened today 06/04/26. I also have the pdf file where I sent my identification through but it won’t let me upload it through this website that I’m submitting the claim through.

Phishing - Public Service
Called talking about recently expanded benefits for healthcare professionals previously only available to first responders and public servants. Asked if I still had an active pharmacist license in one state and was a resident of another state (which can be gleaned by going to the state Board of Pharmacy license lookup). This doesn't make sense, as any healthcare professional with a professional license (doctor, nurse, pharmacist, lab, etc.) would have insurance available through their job or employment. They do work in healthcare and as such, tend to have good benefits. Obviously a scam, since most hospitals at least will carry a basic life insurance policy on their employees as well.

Online Purchase - Online Retailer Scam - Instagram Seller
Dear Better Business Bureau,
I am writing to formally lodge a complaint against an online seller operating under the business name “Carmen Valentiana,” (https://www.instagram.com/carmenvalentina?igsh=M3c2b214dWl6YWhj)
from whom I purchased an item via Instagram. Despite my numerous attempts to resolve the situation directly with the seller, I have faced repeated issues.
The seller failed to ship the item as promised. After multiple excuses and unfulfilled assurances, it became apparent that no genuine shipping took place—only a label was printed. After over a month of delays, I requested overnight shipping to resolve the matter, which the seller refused. At this point, I no longer need the item, but I am concerned about the seller’s reliability and honesty.
I want to warn other potential buyers about these business practices, as they were misleading and untrustworthy. I kindly request that the BBB investigate this matter.
Thank you for your assistance in protecting consumers like myself.
Sincerely, *****
I have screenshots of conversations please contact me ******************** and I’ll send it

Travel/Vacation/Timeshare - Ethiopian Airlines Imposter - Travel Reservations Scam
My sister needed to cancel a flight reservation with Ethiopian airline that she made for her and her children to go to Africa 3 tickets total). She looked up the Airlines phone number online and called the phone number that she found. After giving her reservation number and her name she was told that she had to pay $900 out-of-pocket to have her nonrefundable ticket canceled and refunded. She told them that that didn’t sound right and that she had spoken to someone else who said that the cost of the penalty was supposed to come out of the ticket. The subject stated that whoever she spoke to didn’t know what they were talking about. The phone call went on for 49 minutes where the subjects negotiated the price down to $680, even suggesting that they’ll wait online while my sister calls her husband to ask for some money to cover the charges. In the end they settled for $380 as an out-of-pocket payment and $300 paid later in the week. She received an email that she was required to click to confirm the cancellation of the flight. Once the transaction was completed for the $380, the subjects then hung up and a few minutes later called back on a different number saying that she no longer needed to pay the additional 300 out-of-pocket and that they would just take it out of the ticket cost. When she never received a receipt for her transaction or for the cancellation of the ticket, she got suspicious and called me. I then reached out to the airline and explained to them that she hadn’t received her receipt and told them what happened. They then sent her a receipt showing that her ticket was indeed canceled and that a fee of $300 was taken out of each ticket as a penalty for the ticket being nonrefundable as well as some nonrefundable taxes, however the $380 that she paid out-of-pocket was not accounted for and the airline representative said that that is something that is not customary to them and that she should look into it through her bank and file a fraud claim. In the process of compiling evidence to send to her bank, I looked up the the number and found that it was associated with a bunch of spam Instagram pages claiming to be various Airlines. They were also in comment sections of known Airlines and travel companies on reputable travel sites claiming to be Travel Assistance. I knew then with certainty that this was a full fledge scam operation. I flagged the Instagram pages and most of them got taken down. I called the original number that my sister called just to see what their set up was like. When someone answered, I simply said oh sorry I called the wrong number and hung up. The person immediately called me back on a different number and said how can I help you and I said “I’m sorry I called the wrong number”. She then again said “what request can I help you with” very aggressively and I said “I called by accident “and she hung up. I then continue to flag their Instagram pages and any associated page I saw with their phone number on Google. My sister began receiving calls from the subjects where they called multiple times from multiple different numbers. She never answered. Today I noticed that they made a new page with a new number and I realized that this is never going to end and countless people are going to get hurt in sensitive moments of desperation if these people aren’t stopped.

In reviewing my bank account statement there was a charge made from Zirconjshop for $44.50. I disputed this with my bank and they were not able to identify this merchant. I had to google this business as I had never heard of them nor did I order anything (or receive anything) from them. They somehow got my debit card number to assess this charge. I have always been in possession of the card. I have since closed that card and obtained a new one.

Lauren and Linda Charleston is a fake, scam organization. Mimicking clothing. The items are sold out of China from a sweat shop. Horrible quality, no tags, threats about returning items. ABSOLUTELY APPALLING! They use a phoney store front with a back story of 2 sisters that have been in a clothing business for many years. Using 2 blonde American women in the photos with beautiful pictures. What you receive is atrocious quality, nothing fits appropriately and then threats if you want to return items. Really frightening and should be stopped ASAP. Horrible for anyone to experience.

Retail Business - Prize Scam
My father has dementia. He has been scammed for thousands of dollars in the past. Every day someone is calling him with some kind of scam. Today, they told him that he was being delivered a television and he would need to pay for shipping. When he alerted me of this expected television, I returned a call to the number from my personal phone. They have broken English and informed me they were from the Amazon Fraud department. My father does not have an Amazon account, so I know that he was bogus. The last time someone claiming to be Amazon called him, they had him go to Walgreens and purchase a $500 gift card and give them the numbers from the card at the end of purchase. So that was a complete loss. Please investigate this to find the fraud. Thank you very much.

Debt Collections
WARNING: Possible debt collection scam using the names "Atterbury & Atterbury" "Litigation Service," and "A.D. Processing."
I received a robocall from someone claiming to be "Sophia Marshall" with "Document Services" regarding an alleged debt owed by my spouse. The message stated that legal documents were being filed and that I needed to call back immediately.
When I returned the call, I was connected with a man identifying himself as "Sean Vargas." He used personal information, to make the call sound legitimate. He then claimed my spouse owed an old debt and threatened legal action if payment was not made.
They sent documents through a PandaDoc link and pushed for immediate payment. I was concerned that signing the documents or making a payment could potentially revive or acknowledge an old debt, which is something many consumers may not realize. After the call, I spent hours researching the people, phone numbers, and companies involved. Every lead ended in a dead end. I could not verify the business, and one of the phone numbers listed as theirs actually belongs to a completely different company. I actually caught "Sean Vargas" in several GOTCHA moments, thanks to my background in legal studies.
I never received a debt validation notice by mail, nor was one sent with the settlement offer they emailed me. Based on my experience and research, I believe this is a scam. Do not sign anything, do not provide banking information, do not make any payments, and report the activity to the appropriate investigative authorities.

Phishing - Ultranuobody, prime health wellness, dreamy nutri vital
Reveived a phone call that i had a $386 outstanding balance for KETO AVC product made in 2024. (No idea what it is) from a company prime health wellness or dreamy nutri vital .
There was charge to my credit card that was fraudulently placed on 4-18-24 to dreamynuti vital and was reported to the credit card company, disputed and closed. The lady marie jackson, calling from tekamah,ne from ultranuobody said that since no police report was filed i was going to be sent to the legal team, taken to court, and would have to pay the full amount plus all legal fees unless i settled now or 119.94
A closed dispute with the credit card company does not cancel a subscription. Im not sure how to cancel a subscription i dont know anything about.
If the $119.94 was paid and not disputed for 2 full billing cycles then the debit will be cleared from collections and not go to legal department. After 60 days a hard copy would be sent to my address of the closed case file.
After looking up ULTRANUOBODY. The BBB has them flagged as a scam.
I called my credit card company they said to contact the better BBB, report the scam, and would be watching my account for any suspiciuos charges.
Cardit card fraud agent also told me the previous dispute case was closed, the merchant trying to charge me had been contacted, and informed of the dispute, and cancelation of the charges.
I have this information on file with my credit card company, and will wait to see whar happens next.

Counterfeit Product - Lintico / impostor
I was scrolling on Instagram and I thought a company called Lintico came up (bought from them before...good company), I don't know how (bait and switch or I clicked on something else) but I ended up on a different site...I did not know that, so I am unclear about the process, how it actually happened. I don't remember how I accessed my credit card #, if I used Pay Pay which has an option to bill to my Barclays card ending in ****. At this point I am unaware anything is wrong. It seemed to be taking a long time to come and it was going by GOFO a shipping company I was unfamiliar with. I tried to cancel the order because tracking said it hasn't been sent. They would not let me cancel the order, suggested I return it. I went on a planned vacation, When I returned the item had been delivered and the return window was closed and they refused to take it back.I opened the package, the color was wrong, the fabric was wrong ...it was a terribly cheap blouse.I think I got scammed...a garden variety, but quite effective, scam.I reached out to ask them to provide me with proof of purchase, show me how, where and when I signed up to buy this, they have not responded to that request. I bought it , but I don't think I thought it was an off brand company, I truly thought I was dealing with Lintico. I believe they have a fake Internet presence, no store but they lead you to believe there is one. There is probably not much that an be done, sadly ...but I wanted to post this, I also left a review on TrustPilot, and will file with my credit card company. feel free to reach out if anything is unclear or you need more info.
