This came up as a "Flash Sale" on Facebook which took me to Dick's Sporting Goods website (I thought). Bought the items I wanted, money came out of my bank, never received a tracking email. Called Dick's they said the order number was WAY too long and not theirs.

This scammer is highly sophisticated and uses various aliases, including James Morgan, Michael Anderson, and others. The scammer typically calls from the number 240-580-3564 but may also use other VoIP numbers. I have contacted the local sheriff's department, and they are aware of the situation and are working to track down the perpetrator. The scammer often poses as a representative of an internet provider, utilities company, bank, and other organizations. They have targeted elderly individuals, convincing them to purchase gift cards or send cash to locations in Pennsylvania, Florida, and other areas. The scammer appears to have a Jamaican accent. One elderly woman was tricked into sending over $2,000 in cash inside a book to the following address: Vivian Hayes, 17343 Evergreen Road, Sylvester, GA 31791. Additionally, gift cards were sent to "Renaisia Williams" at 375 Aylesbury Court, Kissimmee, FL 34758. Fortunately, UPS suspected it was a scam when the elderly individual attempted to send the package, and we were able to intervene and contact UPS.

I called what I thought was budget rental and they could see my reservation and they asked for my credit card details to secure my vehicle. It sounded weird and my credit card kept declining what they were asking for. Since I have no idea how to complete the task they wanted to get the money they hung up on my.

I said I was going to report them and they swore at me and told me to get a life and stop wasting their time.

I just don't want this to happen to other people. They are the first things that pops up when you type in budget rental car.

To my understanding they reached out to our local grocery store promising 5000 copies of a magnetic calendar. They reached out to our business to advertise on the calendar as a promotional item. The agreement was paid. We kept in contact with them to ask if they had been delivered, they sent a picture of a printed calendar and around 100 calendars to the store. We reached out to the company throughout the year and we have not had any contact back for some time. We checked into the website https://www.bleumedia.ca/en and called the phone number on it, we had an answer but the man did not know the company or the product I am asking about. We had several phone numbers to call and emails to check into but they either go straight to voice mail or there is no reply.

Client got a call from one Daniel Blake and Alex William saying there was money put into her account and that she needed to refund the money to them as this was "Government Money." they instructed her to go to the bank to WD her funds then go to a smoke shop with a bit coin which is where they wanted her to deposit the funds. they showed her her account banking information with deposits made (altered bank statements and activity) and intimidated her to go to bank to access funds which were "not " hers. they told her today it was for construction work if the bank asked.

I received a phone call from a “Fraud agent” saying that I am potentially about to be scammed. They said that a person named “Melissa Higgins” supposedly placed an order for an iPhone on my account. The order has been placed and is out for delivery. When it is delivered I am to call Mike (ID #3964) so that he can send me a return address label, free of charge to send the phone back. The phone will be delivered to me within 24-48 hours. He insisted that I NOT open my verizon account because “it’s being watched closely for fraud”. The person knew my phone # ( they had called me) and also knew my verizon account # and my email address.

I contacted Verizon customer service and was assured that this was fraudulent and the person on the phone was the actual scammer, especially since they wanted me to use the return label that they provided. The scammer’s insistence of my not opening my account also seemed suspicious. The Verizon support person cancelled the order and sent a confirmation email of this.

I was contacted by Ryan Smith. He identified himself as a worker from Ashoc Energy Drink. He told me that I could make $700 a week to have a sticker put on my car. Later I received a check for $3990 ($700 was for me and the rest was for the installer specialist). I got a letter stating what to do with the check which I did nothing with it. And I did not receive the sticker with the letter and the check.

I was applying for a job and received the email from Alex Hume requested that I interview. Once I did I was hired. He had me buy a LogWork card that cost $30.00 and open up a bank account at WAFD Bank. He said this was for my paycheck too be deposited. I began working for him, he then sent a fraudulent check that I found out about from the bank that was deposited. After telling him about the check he claimed that his company's account was hacked. Then he sent another check. That was supposed to be my paycheck. I took it to my bank and it was also Fraudulent. I had submitted to the company my personal information when I was hired and my banking information. I was never paid the money that is owed and I have the bank account in my name and information that the fraudulently used. My credit is now bad.

Received an imposter email claiming to be from the company CVS. The email came from: [email protected]. The email contained two separate identical email ads. Second email address was: [email protected]. The email contained a screenshot image. There was no way to unsubscribe from the email. I have tried blocking the email only to receive the same email from a new email address. The images in the email led to unsecure webpages: http://candyerax.com/rd/c32297QEQHL24879260nnxH53aqw158134aXHC1986
