I processed application for UK ETA through website https://passporta.com/ which uses deceptive "spoofing" tactics to overcharge. 1. Deceptive Imitation: The website is designed to mimic the official UK.GOV portal to trick users into paying a 400% markup. 2. Lack of Official Deliverables: They provided a "grossly enlarged checkmark" instead of the official UK Government ETA PDF/Reference number which is standard for this type of legal processing. 3. Hidden Fees / Price Gouging: The final cost was not transparently compared to the official £20 (~$38 CAD) fee until after the card was charged.

The Novelove book app charged me for the first subscription payment of 14.99 which I informed them via [email protected] was accidental that I did not use it, since then they have charged me twice more 14.99 each time. No replies from their support email other than an automated response that told me the information they must have to assess my inquiry, which I have provided on more than one occasion with no additional response. Attached is the only response I have received from their "customer support."

Was asking for personal information

I received a letter to renew my 2026 annual registration for my business which is an LLC. With so many changes I wasn’t sure if this is one of the new things we’re supposed to do, but I do really deep down and what they do is they pay your SSC which is $50 and then charge you $95 to do it. It’s something that I just normally pay $50 a year to do and I get billed by the city so it’s just a third-party jumping in the middle to charge people $95 for something that they can do themselves. Why would they pay this entity instead of just paying the bill? Why does this even exist just to make money off people who don’t understand that they can just pay their bill without a third-party to jump in and take money for absolutely no reason except to make people think that this is something that they need to do through them.

A recorded Walmart message informed me of a pending transaction of $2499.00 to a Walmart Business card. I informed them I had no business card but continued to give me information to get me hooked. He transferred me to what he called an inspector general officer with the U.S. government. I was given a complaint number, his badge number and name. He did ask questions which I refused to answer. He said that I had three business accounts connected to 5 states and he needed to close these accounts with my help. He also told me that looks like I was laundering money over seas. My name has been flagged for illegal activity. He did want a copy of my drivers license and he would forward me paperwork to be completed and returned. I informed my bank, which did nothing.

This company appears when you search for a lazer/red light hair growth cap on the internet. THEY have no phone number, only an email address, but since your software forced me to submit a phone number, to continue with this report, I had to make one up. So the phone # on this report is bogus! I did provide all other data available, but they also do not show what STATE they are in. I gave you everything I could and went back and cancelled my order, but my name, credit card info is still on their website. So I have no idea if you're going to be able to shut their online site down or not. Please do what you can using the info provided. Thanks so much. 4/14/2026 Company name: Steameranmk.com

In January 2026 I received a cash offer for stock that I own. I filled out the forms and sent in the requested information to the New York Depositary, LLC which posed as a legitimate business. The Depositary claimed that they are mired in paperwork and are working to see that I receive the money promised soon. They have not done so. Enclosed is a summary of the letter which I have sent to the New York Depositary, LLC. NOTE: The spelling of Depositary is correct. Re: Cash offer to purchase shares in Principal Group, Inc. By Potemkin Limited After returning my tender form to you, I received a Direct Registration (DRS) Advice on 10 February 2026 acknowledging the transfer of 100 shares of common stock ****** *********) to you. I received an email from the New York Depositary, LLC dated 18 March 2026 claiming my request for payment of the proceeds of such transfer, valued at $5,170.00 USD, was being forwarded to your “Financial Team” for review. Your offer as stated in the acceptance form states “If you accept the Offer, the amount which will be paid to you, upon terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Offer to Purchase, is: $5,170.00 Payment is expected to be sent by check within seven business days of our receiving written notice from the Company’s transfer agent of your Shares.”

2 pairs of loafers purchased that were both a structured faux leather. Both pairs arrived significantly larger in size and were extremely flimsy with no support. They were unwearable shoes. When I requested to return as stated on their website, they said I would have to pay for shipping and pay a 15% restocking fee. Their name is misleading. It says Mayberry North Carolina but their business is based in Belgium and their warehouse is in Guangdong, China. They said I would have to pay to ship myself even though the items they sent were wrong. This is clearly a scam. Do not buy. I went back and forth with their customer support for weeks trying to resolve with no luck.

I own a business and my customer required me to sign up with Netvendors to manage my documents for my customer. I paid Netvendors $149 subscription to do just that. After many attempts to provide Netvendors the documents, they still told my customer they do not have them. I went directly to my customer and provided those documents they required. I want a refund on my credit card for not providing the service I paid Netvendors to do.

My husband used the website to order 1 bottle of supplements to try them out. He received 5 bottles and was charged $199.25. He thought it was one time. I told him he could have bought them on Amazon for $23.95 a bottle. It happened again the next month. We called the number on the package which was the only specific information we had. It was a call center in Southeast Asia. The only name they will give is third party call center and won't give a location. Each time the charge shows up, it says it's from a different company. First Tru Green, and then an apparel company. I don't remember the name. I called the number on the website for the supplements to talk to them, but they don't answer or reply. The so called distribution center said they cancelled the subscription that was never signed up for. a couple of days later we received a third package of five bottles. I called them and they assured me I will not be charged and that the account and subscription were cancelled. A third charge has not been applied to the card. We now have enough supplements for over a year. We cannot reach the actual company. I'm not looking for reimbursement. I'll just cancel the card, but it should be known.
