Fancy diamond ring in red box sent without my ordering it originated in CHINA. I returned it by post so I’m out $5.05! What if they send other things next like a car or drugs!

Received a package in the mail with no information but sending location of a shipping hub from Fullerton California and was sent a cheap necklace instead of a vacuum pool robot ordered from the shed super store website, it stated all was insured and refundable within 120 days of purchase, but only a necklace arrived instead of actual order item placed and purchased. Contact to the site was never responded too
I called my bank and reversed charges made and gave to get a new debit card so that they do not have my numbers of my card available to do more charges upon, very disappointing and that is their idea to keep people paying for items that never come in hopes that they will not order a new card or report the scam at all

Brushing Scam - my Walmart.com account was compromised and completely random items were sent out to various random addresses throughout my state. If you receive something from RYAN LEWIN please return to sender so I can get my refund from Walmart!

We received the exact same note & envelope as Joyce Brand StJohn Hipps (Jul 10, 2023) - the same flat pink plastic envelope from this same address and same seller zr201900044 with return address 4860 Duff Drive, Cincinnati, OH 45246. It also had a piece of paper saying "how are you today? Thank you for your purchase, we really value your business" - I doubt anybody receiving such has any big worries, most likely a scammer is just doing this to give themselves good reviews or to get (false / fake) evidence they ship from inside the USA. :-/

Did you happen to order a dress from Facebook? I ordered a $30 dress a week and a half ago off of Facebook and it never arrived I'm thinking this might be from them...

Received a package with no business name on the return address but addressed correctly to me. Inside was a moissanite 1 carat ring with GRA certificate of authenticity. I called the few men who might want to send me a ring but it wasn't any of them so I suspected it to be a scam. The certificate had a IR, scan bar and website so that you could register your ring using the GRA #. I did not do anything and decided to look up the scan in the BBB, which I see that I'm not the only one who is experiencing this.

I posted my resume online. I received an email from Betty Thomas with Deefty offering me a position as a quality inspector. I would be paid $20 per package. I received a $20 check and did a mobile deposit. I got another check today. I've been opening the packages which come from UPS and FedEx and taking a picture of them, and sending them on. The shipping labels don't have people's names on them, just letters. Emails from: [email protected] and [email protected]. I've shipped a vacuum, some bags, a ring, a Nintendo switch, random stuff.

I was sent an Amazon package addressed to me - Richard Meade, that I did not order and that did not show up on my order summary. I was told this something called "brushing". I reported it to Amazon and the FTC.

Rec'd random unordered package in my name with no return name/business. Return address of 2859 N. Brea Blvd. Fullerton CA 92835, This address is to a 7-11. Contained a cheap shoeshine brush. USPS Tracking 9200 1903 3809 3854 8648 4301 46. Under that label is another with no return address, still addressed to me. There is a bar code with numbers and letters, but under those is a line of Chinese characters.

An unknown and unexpected package arrived from “4868 Duff Dr, Cincinnati, OH 45246” with a note inside stating: “ Dear valued customers, How are you today? Your item is in another package and usually arrives within 1-7 working days. Thank you very much for your purchase, we really value your business.”

We received this same thing today. I went online and saw that this has happened to many people. We've never ordered from FB so I went as far as researching the addresses. It looks like they're using 2 addresses. 4860 and 4868 Duff Dr in Cincinnati. 4860 belongs to a place called NOVOTECH and there is no 4868. Whatever you do... do not scan those bar codes!

From what I’ve read this is a “brushing scam” - I was sent an item I clearly did not order or would ever order and the package is from china but covered in so much tape to look as if it’s from the US. It’s from “Joe Doe” 475 Supreme Dr Bensenville IL 60106. That address does yield a warehouse, but align from what I’ve read, it’s a scam

I received a package thru USPS First Class Pkg. The sender address in upper left hand corner read: Online seller, 24208 San Michele Rd., Moreno Valley, CA 92651

It was a label obviously done on a computer or machine and probably others like it were made too. At top of the label it read USP Postage and fees Paid

90045

C803331 Commercial 5.0 oz zone 1 Easypost 0901000004226 tracking #9400 1361 5535 7075 93. A red box with a fake ciamond solitaire was in the box. No note or anything about who it was from. No invoice. Just a nicely printed brochure for the company GRA it said Moissanite Report which apparently is the kind of stone it is or they are claiming it is.

Report #890079275 explaining all about the stone and its quality. Says the company tests stones for people who send them into them to rate or certify. It came with a card with GRA on it and the report # again saying it was a warranty and certificate of authentic register your GRA purchase online www.gra-moissanites.com I don't know wh at to do with it now. As far as I know I have not been charged for this. I have no idea how much they think it is worth. I have a feeling they will try and take money from one of my accounts. I have had a lot of fraud lately.

We have been receiving packages from Walmart on our doorstep being dropped off by civilians and regular cars and not by USPS or UPS or a delivery company. There was no name on 2 packages and on 1 of the packages there was a name but we've never seen that name before. Someone rang our doorbell and we told them to take the package back which they did but someone else came back and dropped another package off on our doorstep. I have taken a picture of one of the packages and the other picture has a name, order number and address so I didn't take a picture of that.

Received 2 packages. Identical. Each had an adjustable clear glass ring in box. An envelope welcoming me & something about a guarantee. I didn't read further. Searching my accounts for suspicious charges...

Last night I received a shipment addressed to me with my exact address. I did NOT order this. It was in an Amazon box with unbroken Amazon tape. The box contained 3 identical small black boxes, sealed in shrink wrap. The boxes are generic with no brand name; just a misspelled description of contents. Each side of the small black boxes has 2 different addresses: "AC WORKS CONSULTING Srl, Via Vilfredo Pareto 125,47521, Cesena(FC), Italy" and "UK CROSSBORDER LIMITED, 7 Bell Yard London WC2 A2JR,UK, United Kingdom". I opened one box and found black wireless earbuds in a charging case. This was not ordered from my Amazon account. I have searched this situation online and see that it is likely a scam.
