Watch the link on Facebook about glucose revive. When I tried to order it, it kept adding things to it. Then when I looked at the charges, it was not what I had agreed to buy, nor was it the price I agreed to pay. There never was a breakdown of cost or the ingredients available to see. I immediately called to get it canceled and had to go round and round with them before they canceled it.

I though I was ordering off of a Lane Bryant plus size clothing site on Facebook and it was not them and some person from china instead and scammed me out of $45 to $50 worth of clothing. They acquired my personal bank account information and I can only contact them through Facebook messenger and they send me some random tracking number ( that’s what I put as their email that’s the only number I had for them)

I was locked out of my Facebook and FB Messenger accounts so I contacted this number that I found online. The man claimed to be a representative of Meta/Facebook and that my account including my Apple Cash had been hacked and he was helping me to "set a trap" to catch the culprits, but instead I was conned out of a $500 Apple card. He was trying to pursuade me to purchase more cards before my intuiton finally kicked in and I realized that, as convincing as he was, it just didn't make sense. Sadly, I still don't have access to my Facebook account and now I'm down $500. Up side: it was an expensive lesson, but it could've been worse. BEWARE!!

My daughter transferred $800 for concert tickets to what I thought was my friend. Facebook account and messenger was hacked and my daughter transferred money to a scammer and never received tickets. Scammer Apple Pay number 517-202-6082. I have filed disputes with Huntington Bank and Apple and unable to get a refund back. Would like some help getting money back since this person is a scammer and does not deserve my daughters hard earned money. Thank you.

I approached the company via an ad on FB promoting a Beta Tester program for plant lovers. The company was trying to promote a monthly subscription where the customer was to pay $29.95 a month for a number of tropical and exotic plants and plant accessories. At least one plant was to be received per month. The first month, I received no plants at all, only stickers. Stickers are not plant products at all! After months of the subscription lapsing, September 2, 2024, my card was charged for $29.95 by RumbleBumble. I was later sent a tiny variegated schefflera in a 4-inch pot. This is a plant I can easily find for $10-$12. I expressed my dissatisfaction and requested a refund or product exchange via email. Instead of honoring my requests, the company was dishonest about what I subscribed to and refused to offer a refund or further product to compensate for my loss.

Scammer advertised a washer/dryer combo on FaceBook Marketplace. The scammer advertised item as being in Knoxville TN. When questioned she said she was in Kennesaw, GA. She said I could come pick it up the following day but I had to pay a deposit of $250. I asked if, when I got there, I didn’t like it was the deposit refundable? She responded “Correct, Definitely.” She said she would send an invoice with a link to pay. The link was for Google Pay. I sent her the deposit of $250 through Google Pay. The physical address on the invoice is 1633 NW Old 41 HWY, Kennesaw GA. This was my first time using Google Pay. She then asked if I would send the balance and she would deliver it. She said the delivery fee and installation was $125.00. She kept asking for the remainder of the $500.00. I told her forget it and ask for a refund. She said several times that she would issue a refund. So then she said she had canceled 2 sales and would not refund my money. She kept saying she didn’t understand … I told her I wanted a refund but she refused. I tried to talk to Google but you can’t reach them by phone. I filed a dispute with my bank but they said they couldn’t help with a third party transaction. I have nowhere to turn. I saved all of our conversations on Messenger.

All the Hallmark “actors” are being impersonated on Facebook. They ask that you buy a fan card that ranges from $100-$10,000

They claim the fan card allows you to meet the actor for an unlimited time. Most profiles will convince you they want to marry you! It is just as hilarious as it sounds but they target older women and disabled individuals. It’s a sick scam. They claim to have private orphanages, foundations and charities.

I have messages where I’ve caught the scam but the scams continue to grow. I need help getting the word out.

An individual who is a friend of my wife was advertising a number of items for sale on their Facebook page. One of the items was a 2019 Nissan Sentra. My wife contacted who she believed was her friend to inquire about the car.

The individual reached out to me via text to obtain a deposit to hold the car until I could pick it up.

It was not until after I had sent the deposit via PayPal that I learned my wife’s friends’s Facebook account had been hacked. The person we had been communicating with was actually the hacker, and there was never a car for sale.

My friends wife and 2 kids died in a fire. All of a sudden I was friended by her funeral service page on Facebook. I clicked the watch live funeral service link(there was also a donation link) I was prompted to sign up for a free account to be verified with debit card. I then received a debit for $1 to my bank account and no access to a live funeral service for my friend’s wife. I am worried this isn’t the only transaction that is going to appear on my bank statement and I have already reported it to my bank.

I bought a parrot. Seller hired a courrier for delivery. Immediately the courrier wanted me to pay for pet insurance which was refundable. Next was a heated cage, then vaccine certificate, then a few to process my refund of those services which were supposed to be refunded in cash upon delivery. Bird was never delivered and refund never made.

I listed my motorcycle for sale on FB marketplace immediately received a message on messenger requesting my phone number, I received a text with a code which I sent and apparently with my phone number they can set up a google voice number linked to my number. I have changed my google password, my Facebook passwords, locked my SIM card on my phone I just don't know if they were successful at getting my number. Only thing left is to change my number which I really don't want to do.
