https://parcelsapp.com/en/tracking/AM214997516CN was the tracking that was sent to my email. I realized it was a scam after my bank account showed china, website said arrives before christmas. I found this "rebuilt tryobuilt wood chipper/shredder" on google on the top ads bar.

I opened a text which appears to be Costco, it was a survey with the end results a TV. I answered the questions and entered my visa. Soon after I checked my account and was charged $9.95 under Bronze Bonanza Shop, then 10 mins later another charge was for $119.95 under Classy Trend Zone Guru. I was fortunate enough to contact Citi Bank and dispute the charges. I’m now forced to cancel my card and replace it. They should not be using the Logo of Costco

Pop-up add was blinking while I was looking over internet reads advertising COSTCO as the vendor. I should have known it was to good to be true advertising an 8-piece sectional sofa for $19.98 plus shipping and handling for 8.98. total of $28.98 taken from my credit card. After I entered my credit card information, I got a response back stating that my credit card would show a posting of $28.98 from GODDESSBESTR.com. That should have been my 2nd clue not COSTCO as advertised in the internet posting. I was hoping that this was a legitimate purchase, so I didn't stop my bank from honoring the sale. I guess your bank cannot offer advice to you that this is probably a fraudulent business but offers you the opportunity to deny payment as a warning. Next interactions are the same as the previous customer, contacting the ceurwa.com website only to discover that there is no phone number to talk to a live representative but "canned responses" about the legitimacy of the company and tracking details to keep me thinking that I am actually going to receive a product. I think that all of the "canned responses" are all programmed to keep you on the hook that something is actually being done to your order. NOT. Supposedly my order was shipped from China on 8/1/2023 and was received in the USPS on 8/14,2023 and now delivered, NOT.... The scam/scheme is so elaborate that this website https://17track.net/en posts bogus tracking data for all delivery companies in the USA. How's this possible?

I was on Facebook and I saw an ad from Costco selling Croc shoes for a reduced cost and I needed new crocs so I thought it was just good luck. I was on what looked like a Costco site and as soon as I made the purchase the money was taken out and I never received an email confirming my order or any shipping information. I reached out to the Facebook page that had the ad on it and messaged there that I never received a confirmation email, and never received any response. I have reached out to cash app ,how I paid, and disputed the purchase. I still have never received the shoes nor have I received any communication in any way. I has been 9 days since I made the purchase. The charge was made to ABT orgegas.

I placed my my order. Paid With PAYPAL got my order confirmation and tracking number. After about 13 days it said delivered but I never got it. It said it would be delivered by Canada post. I. Checked with Canada post and they had never heard of or seen my package. When contacting the costumer service department I was told it had been delivered. When I said wasn’t delivered they replied with they had sent the wrong package and if I sent that back they would send the right package I have asked for my money back several times but they just responded with, I need to send back the 3D glasses they sent by mistake and then they will send correct package.

On Facebook it appears as a CostCo ad, selling overstock plant boxes through warehouses in US with a 3-5 day shipping time. When I ordered, it said it was a Plantbox Store and they never came. When checking tracking it appeared they were stuck in TX, then they gave an updated tracking number that was global tracking, back and forth with emails, long story short they said item was delivered. Three planter boxes weren’t delivered, they said they made an error and mailed me sunglasses instead and want me to find the order. The way they described it, they’re not from the US. They kept telling me they shipped my order through the mail, that my neighbors must have signed for them, etc.

Acting as a Costco affiliate on Facebook. Advertised an electric e-bike as "overstock". Took debit card payment. Gave fake tracking info. Never delivered order. Sent a different product and asked for return shipping and 40% return payment. I ceased emails after this.

I got an email showing it was from Costco. It was saying that I have won a product to use. All I need to do is pay for the shipping. So I thought since it was from Costco it would be okay to buy. I did read the email. There was no price listed nor did I see any subscription to buy. When they called me they demanded that I pay them. She was saying that I was one month overdue for canceling the subscription. I didn't know what she was talking about. So I had to ask questions about what she was saying. Since I was late I have to pay double because they have just sent out another order. I told her that I did not take out a subscription. She said that I did. You didn't read all the e-mail. If you did you would have seen it. She told me that it was way down in the e-mail. I told them that I would refuse and resend the item back. She said that I couldn't do that. I ask for them to send me proof of the email. They couldn't or would not do that. I have to pay for it. She gave me a four-digit number saying that it was mine. She tried to send it through the bank but they rejected it. I did not have a card having those numbers. I asked where did you get those numbers? She said that she couldn't tell me but it has my name on it. She still demanded I pay her. I told her that I didn't have that kind of money. She told me that it was your problem. I told her to call me back the next day around noon. I will then tell her what I will do. I did tell her that I would pay half to see what she would say. She said NO! She would not take half of the money. She demands all of it. That's when I hang up on her. I knew then that it has to be a scam.

She did tell me that she was in St. George, Utah. I got two phone numbers. (1) 844-477-1099 (2) When I didn't answer the first call, they switched over to our state number 405-587-9149. People will answer it that way.

The product is RevitaNu

I just got a voicemail from her this morning. This call shows its coming from Lindsay, Ok., phone # 405-963-2474

I got an email from costco offering a $500 gift card if I answered a brief survey, after answering the survey I was told I would be winning a TV I just needed to put in my address and my Costco card. Totally a scam. I deleted the email, but I just wanted to make sure others knew about it too.

The scammer is on Facebook selling fireplaces using Costco name. With prices for a fireplace for 66-68 dollars. They made a post on Facebook advertising the fireplace for a low price.

This website is showing signs of fraud. The products prices just don't add up. Plus the website states their headquarters are in Boston, however there is no address. There is no phone number or full physical address on this website. Per WhoIs.com, the website domain was registered on 4/17/2021; updated on 11/23/2021; and expires 4/17/2022.

I answered an ad on a gaming app on my cell phone for a 4-wheel mobile scooter. They pretended to be COSTCO online I knew it wasn't COSTCO, but I paid through paypal and had second thoughts about doing so.

Then I decided COSTCO should know about the website and if it is FRAUDULENT take it down and stop the adds.
