Online Purchase

I received duplicate USPS packages that I did not order on May 26th from Jose Mercado, 21010 Cornerstone Dr., Walnut, California. After checking my bank account, I discovered two separate unauthorized charges from Avantgarde Services. In my further investigation on Avantgarde Services, the following information was released: "If you see an unexpected 'Avantgarde' charge on your credit card, it is likely either an unauthorized phishing/scam transaction, a subscription mix-up, or confusion around how Avant processes their loan payments." I do not, nor have I ever had, any business relationship with Avantgarde Services.

Employment - Bestfix Home Solutions LLC

Got a cold call from a male at ?(469) 537-7809? requesting service for a residential address that happened to be right on the same block as our office. The call was clearly coming from an offshore call center (India). I reiterated our policy — we work direct with homeowners and rental tenants only, no third parties. He pushed back and claimed they weren't a third party but rather a platform that "connects property owners," which was an obvious non-starter. I wrapped up the call by directing their customer to book through our website if they want our services. Made it clear we're fine walking away from the business if that process doesn't work for them, and formally requested removal from their marketing list with no further contact to our business line. Heads up to the team: we've dealt with countless texts and calls from sketchy third-party outfits like this. They rarely pay without being threatened with legal action or a mechanics lien post-job. Do not engage or provide services based on leads from these operators.

Employment

I am filing this complaint because I completed what appeared to be a full hiring and onboarding process with this company, including submitting my personal information such as identification details, contact information, and other onboarding documents they requested. After they collected all of my information and I completed every required step, the company completely stopped communicating with me and essentially ghosted me without any explanation or update regarding my employment status. I attempted to follow up multiple times but received little to no response. This experience caused me serious concern because I invested significant time and provided sensitive personal information under the belief that the job opportunity was legitimate and active. The lack of communication and professionalism after onboarding is unacceptable, misleading, and raises concerns about how my information is being handled. I am requesting that the company provide a clear explanation regarding my application and onboarding status, confirm how my personal information is being stored and used, and improve communication practices so other applicants do not experience the same issue.

Online Purchase - Hair Supplement Scam

I was referred to this website by my husband in hopes it could help with my hair situation. I read the story and was thinking this is to good to be true, but then thought well, there is a 180 day money back guarantee so I placed the order. It was then that more and more products kept coming up to purchase. I didn't want them so I clicked no to pass on the offers. After the purchase I had a weird feeling. I went back to the website and scrolled through a lot of info, the story I originally read and when I got to the very very bottom it says that the story is "not real". The whole thing is fraudulent. I looked them up on TrustPilot and saw how many people were saying they couldn't stop the orders. They were automatically put on a subscription basis even though they didn't ask for that. I saw how you couldn't reach any one in customer service at the number provided. And also saw how people were trying to unsubscribe to the subscription and even though they unsubscribed, the products keep coming and their credit cards keep getting charged. Immediately, I tried to call them to cancel the order (within 30 minutes). Nobody answered and was referred to their email support. I sent multiple emails telling them not to cancel and not send the order, to cancel it all together and to remove me from any subscriptions. I received an email back the next day, a template email, telling me how to unsubscribe from automatic shipments. I followed the direction and "unsubscribed" even though I never subscribed to anything. I tried calling the phone number again multiple times to talk with a person to no avail. The message says to email them. This is a complete scam. There is no way to get in touch with a live person to stop anything!
