They used an ad on Facebook pretending to be SparkPaws. The ad led to a website that was also branded to look like SparkPaws. I should have paid closer attention at the time, but everything looked like the SP site I’d visited before. I placed an order and it said it’d be 2-3 days shipping. When they emailed tracking info I got suspicious—it was clearly coming from China and did not look like a SparkPaws order. I got busy with the holidays and after a couple of weeks realized I still hadn’t gotten that package, even though the tracker said delivered. At this point I reached out to the service address in the email (definitely not SparkPaws), and asked for a refund. They offered to re-ship the order or see if they could find “another solution.” I have responded that I only want a refund.

I made contact to several companies for the purchase of used auto body parts for my 2012 Mercedes R-350 vehicle hitting a dear. Henry was my contact person and talking with him I became able to trust him to be honest and ordered my auto parts thru him through the company he was representing, Performance Auto Salvage. After making my payment communication with him changed. He would take my calls and have many excuses on the delay but was working on getting the parts. Then he told me that he was unable to deliver and would provide a full credit back to me. I made contact to the Better Business Bureau to help me get my refund, in which Performance Auto Salvage told the Better Business Bureau that they had the intent to send me my refund check since Performance Auto Salvage was unable to deliver the auto body parts that I requested, Then after many calls, the credit changed to nothing, and gave me the excuse that I canceled the order and the cost of restocking was equal to the value of my order, therefore no refund credit would be offered. This time took over six(6) months of hoping that I would get my parts or my full refund. This company is a total fraud.

After a month, I emailed customer service. They said updated information would come in 2-4 days. After continued emails asking for refund they only assure it’s coming and there is a big volume. No refund and no product.

Bought two pedicure massage chairs from Hummers Beauty. A real looking site with reviews and an address! They sent a receipt but no tracking information. They did send me an email saying the delivery date would be November 25th, Steve Walsh, Sales executive, 224-795-8000, www.hummersbeauty.com was used in that email. When they weren't delivered by the time they said they would be there they directed me to the "delivery company". "delivery company" said they would call when 30 minutes away, then they got into an accident and couldn't deliver the chairs. Soon to be found out it was a scam.

Ordered product online, Twice the shipping carrier "Better Trucks" misplaced the package. Searched google reviews for the business and it appears an overwhelming majority of receivers don't get their packages. An alarmingly high percentage of people to be specific. It would appear this shipping carrier rarely delivers packages. Potentially is a setup as a ring to steal from people. It does not seem possible in any world they can be so wildly unsuccessful doing what they are contracted to. Reviewers also note that delivery drivers frequently arrive at a destination and leave without an attempt to make a delivery and then their packages are gone and never delivered. Something isn't right with this business. They have been doing the same thing for years, it's not growing pains. They should not be able to continue to take receiver and vendors items by contract and continue to make these packages vanish? Where do they all end up?

It's incredible they are allowed to get away with this.

I purchased a pair of shoes, t-shirt, and a button that I saw in a Facebook ad. I received an email with tracking information, but I never received the items. I emailed the company the other day regarding this. I was told that the items were delivered and that I should check with my local post office. The tracking information I looked at does not show that the items were delivered.

A family member in a Chicago recovery home tried to buy k2, an illegal substance in Illinois. The individual from the website tried to have a picture of a bank card sent for payment and ultimately got a cash app sent to his “friend” and then never responded. This website is frauding individuals and seemingly trying to sell k2 even in states where it is illegal. Hoping you can have something done as they are preying on desperate individuals.

Ordered a "colorful natural mineral mug" and received a shoddily painted mug seemingly made of resin. Attempted to post a review with pictures on the website, but the review was hidden. They only post five star reviews, and I suspect many of those reviews are fake. They claim to have A+ ScamPulse.com accreditation. Any attempts to contact them through e-mail have failed. They have no phone number.

I ordered two dresses through their website and received a shipment notification. However, the tracking number only says preparing for shipment even after two months (meaning the package hasn't even been sent yet, they just made a shipping label). After 1 month, I emailed support and spoke to two different people. The first person said the package was lost and they were sending a replacement. They said I would receive updated tracking information once it was sent. I never received updated information, so after a week or two I emailed again and spoke to the second person. She told me the package was in transit, however the tracking number in the app never changed and still said "preparing for shipment". I've been emailing support for a month now (2 months since I placed the order) and they just keep telling me it's on the way but not providing any proof. When I ask for more proof, they just tell me they're looking into it and then I never hear back unless I email again. They're just giving me the run around, but clearly have no intention to provide the merchandise I paid for.

Hello BBB,

I ordered 3 bags. They were advertised as being made from leather. I received my order in less than 10 days . When they arrived I discovered they were made of plastic. Not leather. I requested a refund and ask for return instructions.

I was given instructions to return the bags to CHINA. The bags were shipped from a distribution site in Franklin Park IL. The address is on the shipping package. I have attached the email conversations below. I don't want to keep the bags. I would like to ship them back to Franklin Park, IL NOT China.

From: Grace Bags

Thank you for sharing your concerns, and I'm truly sorry for the confusion.

To clarify, the shipping value covers the international shipping process, while customs valuations are typically lower to streamline

entry into your country. Although we do have a US-based fulfillment partner to expedite shipments, returns are managed

through our main facility overseas, which is why we're unable to process the return locally.

To make this easier for you, I'm prepared to offer an exclusive 70% refund just for you, allowing you to keep the items without

the hassle of shipping them back. This offer is not available to others, and I hope it can provide a quick resolution for you.

Please let me know if this works for you, and I'll process it right away.

Sending warm regards on behalf of Grace,

Rachel

Your instructions make no sense. How do I value the items shipping for over *** and claim the value of the items less than *** for

customs. My order was received in less than 10 days. So there is a warehouse in the US.

The Ad I ordered from said I had 30 days to return for a full refund.

I will write to the Better Business Bureau and forward your information to them.

I ordered same day delivery flowers and was notified hours later that my shipment would be late. After waiting on the phone for nearly an hour, I was informed that my order would be delivered two days later. I then attempted to cancel my order, and was repeatedly told I could not do so because it was "already accepted by the farm." I tried to cancel my order online, but the website said my order ID was invalid despite the fact that it was provided by the company via email, and they were able to find my order when I gave them the number over the phone. I called once again to cancel my order to no avail. Luckily I was able to get the charge cancelled through my bank.
