FASCEBOOK HAD AN AD FOR HOKA SHOES AT DISCOUNTED PRICING. I BOUGHT THEM AND RECEIVED A RECEIPT IN MY EMAIL THAT MY ORDER WAS RECEIVED AND WOULD BE SENT OUT FOR SHIPPING . THEY NEVER SENT ANYTHING AND I LOST $70.

I received a call from someone who said they were calling for Chase Bank. They said that someone had tried to open a Chase Bank account in my name and it appeared that my identity had been stolen/my SSN compromised. He then transferred me to "Consumer Protection Department" and told me to use Case ID #EL2112495. The person on the transfer call said he was with TransUnion and he seemed to have all the information from my TransUnion account. I ended this call pretty quickly as none of it seemed "right". I am not sure what these guys wanted. The original caller called back immediately but I did not take the call. I confirmed the last 4 digits of my SSN on the first call, but tried not to verify anything on the transfer call. I looked at my TransUnion credit report this morning and did not see anything unusual. I called the number of the scammer this morning and received a message that it is disconnected.

Called Ticketmaster to get a refund on an event and when they transferred me they transferred to an individual, named Kevin, that stated he can give me a refund but I had to buy a Ticketmaster gift card. I did not see a Ticketmaster gift card so he told me to get the apply gift card. Once I got the Apple gift card he stated their system was down and that I would be refunded the amount on the gift card but I would have to get another. He also emailed me a copy of the supposed refund. This was an ongoing process until I caught on to what he was doing. Once I confronted him he hung up in my face

I ordered a pair of Hoka shoes from what I believed to be the Hoka Facebook page. Once I received the email from them showing what I had purchased I realized the address on top of email was not Hoka. I sent them an email at the link they have on their email but have yet to hear back from them. The charge cleared my bank the next day. I have again attempted to contact them but to no avail. Today I clicked the link to check on the tracking status and it says “not shipped”. I believe this is a fraudulent site. The name of the company that debited my account was Theoduo Leggins LLC.

This company mails me EVERY DAY with actual postal mail without any details other than "We have been attempting to contact you regarding a matter of importance". They have polled public records to grab my mortgage's closing date (which actually varies a bit from mailing to mailing, which I noticed), my loan amount, the county of my home, and the mortgage lender, and all this plus my full name are listed on the mailing.

I have been receiving these every day and I do mean EVERY day for weeks now.

Was a scam regarding Facebook Jackpot Promotion giveaway
This is the Facebook contact number listed in Google. However, it's a scam 877-592-0456

Was told I had 65k coming through an IG investment but was flagged in the system with the FTC and ScamPulse.com and needed to send $100 to remove the flag. The man identified himself as James Washington and he called from (240) 349-6238. Thanks

Same scam which has targeted my mother (who has dementia) several times in 2 months. (She forgets that it happened before and believes it.) They call on the phone and say that someone has purchased a big ticket item on her Amazon account. They then state that she needs to verify some information, usually something benign at first, but then in order to help her “ get the charges taken off” she must give out more personal details and information, etc.

**** ******* ALL OF THESE HORRIBLE CRIMINALS WHO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF MENTALLY CHALLENGED ELDERLY PEOPLE.

Scammer sent a text and claimed to be from the USPS. said that I had a package that had been delivered to a wrong address so then it was picked up and just rerouted to the nearest warehouse for storage.

They wanted money to have it released and “reshipped “ which then supposedly would be refunded to me by the original seller.

I did not let it progress and I did not click on the link, of course. But i am positive it would have had several damaging consequences if I had.

* I have received 6 of these texts in the last 4 months.

I had a call Wed. Nov. 8, 2023 saying people were opening credit card accounts under my Social Security number. They told me to cancel my Social Security number and get a new one. They also told me to close my checking and Savings account and not to open it up till I got a new Social Security number. The person I talk to was Carlos A. Briano and his Fed. ID # Dae199175. The phone number he was calling from is 915-832-6000 and 571-362-8487.

This person called and asked if I had created a new Verizon account last Friday. I stated "no". They asked I was "Megan Holeman" and I said "yes" and they hung up.

Tried to get me to open my phone to allow access to all information using app. anydesk and my computer at nortoninc.ukit.me

- Philadelphia, MS, USA

Received a call from an unknown number. Caller ID showed the call originating from Fort Collins, CO. Ignored call & let it go to voice mail. First 10 seconds or so was elevator music followed by a computer generated female voice saying that authorization was needed for a $1499 payment for an Apple MacBook Pro on my Amazon account. Message also instructed that if I did not wish to authorize this payment to press "1" to speak with a customer support representative. Stevie Wonder could see this is a scam. Checked my Amazon account just to verify & no Apple MacBook Pro had been ordered by me or anyone else in my family. Stay alert for things like this & help educate your family and friends about these scams, especially older folks.

I searched for a phone number to contact facebook because I was receiving some weird messages pretending to be facebook admin, when I called 1877 592 0456 no one answered but immediately after i hung up I received a call from 91 701 506 4503, when I tried to explain and they asked me my page information as soon as I gave them the page info they hung up then I called back the main number again someone picked up the phone saying they charge 300$ to fix the problem and when I said I just wanted to know if it is legit and they hung up, then I called back and they picked up the phone and hung up.

this clearly shows they are taking money from people pretending to be Facebook help.

this has to stop.

thank you

I received a call from DMV, allegedly "a Wayfair's Account was sent to them, they requested payment of $218, I replied it was a Kapult's Account, I ordered, the balance was 60 plus dollars remaining; the phone person said "it's interest that occurred and set up 6 months payments' plans of $36 starting November 2023, i explained, im a CVA's survivor and this does not make any sense, to pursue a debt through DMV, however, i called Kapult, the person said "the account is with another establishment and given me the direct number to contact"; it was a different number 1-888-326-1253; the person of myself contacting Better Business Bureau, to verify if this is a legit call or professional scammer business, trying to scam the poor and make their establishment, home, and/or family rich without my consent and manipulation to extort money. It's a lot of corruptions in high places and businesses.

I didn't receive and letters, email, only a call; is this a legit establishment or a penniless company tried to become rich.

Scammer admitted after I got angry that it was a fake email. He hung up on me several times and every time I called back, he disquised his voice even going so far as a female voice. I took a screenshot of the email and the sender used the name Connor Butler as contact. He kept asking me to open my laptop and I refused.

I received a voicemail from this number about me, purchasing a computer of some sort through my Amazon account after researching, my Amazon account I noticed there was no recent order for this product. They tried to scam me.

Scammers were called about scam through zelle and scammers pretended to be customer service for zelle. They ask you to downtown a GS Viewer app and they they see what you see on your phone and right in front of your eyes like a ghost they go into your phone and accounts and transfer out your money and steal it.
