Online Purchase - initialshop

I placed an order for (2) Set of 3 Celebration Hurricanes by Valerie, that I saw on Facebook. Everything looked legit and I used my PayPal Credit Account to pay for this. Communication was good from "them" about when my order went through, when it shipped, etc. I watched it about every 2 - 3 days to keep up on the status on where it was. Then I get an email that my package had been delivered. And it had not been delivered. I checked with my post office and they said they had no package for me. I gave tracking number, all the things they asked for, and they did not have it. I contacted them by email and I sent a dispute to PayPal. And they just keep saying that it's been delivered - nothing they can do, I am responsible for the charge. I can't get the tracking images to upload. Their "phone number" is +86 13282011554. I did not try the phone. I only emailed them.

Online Purchase - Parenting App Scam

Parenting leader advertising on social media. Signed up for a 28 day plan for $21.12. Receipt was received confirming this plan/amount, noted after the fact that the order date is incorrect, stating 2/7/26 when it was ordered 6/4/26. There was zero fine print or any communication at any point prior to or during ordering that this would extend a subscription after the initial 28 days. Parenting leader charged my card for $63.74 on 7/2/26. As above, there was zero authorization or communication that the subscription was renewing for a different amount. On further investigation with a Google search for "Parenting Leader" and "Parenting Leader Scam" it appears this is a common practice by this company. Email was sent to Parenting Leader 7/2/26, response received that "someone from our team will get back to you as soon as possible."

Online Purchase - Mandatory Action Email Phishing Scam

On 11/27/2025 at 8:00 PM, I received an email from "Paul Garrett" ([email protected]), identified as "Head of Compliance" for Custom Design Genius, titled "FINAL LEGAL REMINDER - Mandatory Action Required Before Thanksgiving Deadline." It claimed a trademark registration for a logo ("Meta Bone") had expired and that continued use was unauthorized, demanding a written response within 24 hours (by 11/28/2025) and threatening a cease-and-desist order, injunctive relief, statutory damages, legal fee recovery, forced content removal, and placement on "Public Non-Compliance Records" for noncompliance. I also received a text message from a contact identifying himself as "Sean," stating he had "tried calling regarding the artwork - Meta Bone" and that "the application deadline is today," asking me to call back at my earliest convenience. This follows the same urgency-and-vague-authority pattern as the email. Neither message used standard legal terminology, and no verifiable trademark filing or expiration was confirmed. I did not pay any money, call back, or respond to either communication. Other online reviews and complaints describe an identical pattern used by this company against past design customers, including threats from multiple different names and phone numbers. I am reporting this as an attempted extortion/fraud scheme.

Employment - Employment Task - Commissions Scam

I recieved a text asking me if i was interested in a job position i said okay and did not think it was not real because i fill out alot of forms/questionaires. The position was explained to me and then shown to me. I then receive a link to register a work account https://databricks03.com. I was also sent a number to communicate through a work phone line through Whats App(2098516624 & 3039444807) I practiced with the person and after a couple of trys i did see i small profit in my cash app and thought that this may work out. But after a few more trys i dont know why i didnt just stop communicating but keep going even after i was ask to invest my actual money. I keep going with it. (I never realized/know i could be so gulliable/stupid). After being told the next process to continue i just keep depositing money in my cash app and taking instructions on what to do. After i realized I lost all that i invested and I kept going along (in panic mode) making them think that i was gonna take a loan out to deposit more money. Then communication stopped and then they started to try and begin to communicate again.

I WISH I COULD GIVE THIS COMPANY A FAT ZERO! I wanted to try this product ONE time ONLY to make sure I would not have an allergic reaction. I went to purchase one time and was ILLEGALLY signed up for a subscription somehow...I was NOT asked to subscribe for this product. I did not realize it until I saw a charge for a second order. So, I sent FOUR emails to have this fixed. NO response. I tried to cancel it on the website, but there is no option to cancel. I called the number on the website, NOTHING...I was told I was added to a callback list but NEVER received a call back from them. This has been a HORRIBLE experience and one that I do not want anyone else to go through. At this point, I have sent a final email letting it be known I do not wish to have a subscription, didn't choose to have a subscription, do not send me another product, do not charge me another dime, or I will dispute it with my credit card company. I have made it up in my mind that they are SCAMMING people out of their money which is HORRIBLE. I do not want it!!!!! DO NOT BUY ANYTHING FROM THEM!!! THEY ARE A SCAM!!!!!

Phishing - Iron View Financial

Good morning. Sarah Thompson calling from Iron View Financial. I work in underwriting. Jumping in early because I wanted to make sure this landed before your day gets going. Trans Union and Equifax ran their June update, and your file came back with a preapproval for a $40,500 hardship person loan. No hard credit check. Same day funding available. Payments around $433 a month. What most people do with this preapproval is consolidate everything. Visa, store cards, any balance carrying a high rate. One payment, lower rate, cards back to zero. It's just a cleaner way to run the finances, and honestly, a good move heading into the 2nd half of the year. Call me at 866-383-0828 when you get a minute. I'll give you the straight picture on exactly what you'd qualify for. Pre-approval window closes tomorrow, Tuesday at 3 p.m. Again, 866-383-0828. Have a good morning.

Online Purchase - Retail Clothing Website Scam

Purchased an item of clothing from Lucy & Lilly online. Quickly cancelled after doing a quick search of reviews. They responded promptly and tried to get me to take the item with a token discount to get me to not cancel but I insisted. I was promised a refund within 7 to 10 days. That was over a month ago. Repeated inquiries have yielded nothing. They have an automated response that begins positively, but over time, promises are not met. They create “tickets” for resolution and a day later you get what seems like a personal email asking for my patience. When I threatened submission of a complaint to BBB they stopped responding.
