I ordered 3 bottles of a product. After the order was completed they placed another order for 6 bottles for $250.97.

I immediately contacted PayPal and the company saying that i did not authorize this order. They stated that it was a automatic payment order and that it was to late to cancel. I filed a dispute with paypal and emailed the company as well. I even have emaiils stating that due to the hurricanes there was a delay in shipping. They could have canceled my order at that time for the 6 bottles that i did not authorize but refused to do so. As of today they are stating that the item was sent and paypal is stating that because they sent it out then i am pretty much screwed. This company manipulated in the order a membership to charge me for six additional bottles and even after contacting them before it was shipped they refused to give me a refund and cancel the order.

They keep mailing stuff to the wrong address or maybe not mailing it at all. They refuse to refund me. I have plenty of emails to prove it. The person running the account is either completely incompetent or completely dismissive.

I seen an advertisement on Instagram about waterproof headphones so I made the purchase from the business website https://solsounds.us/ I was informed i would receive my package in 10-14 days but well past that and I still have not received anything. I did receive a notification through a third party shipping application telling me it was delivered but i never received it. There is no tracking information from my local courier either stating it was to be delivered or that it was delivered but the only tracking informed is with a china shipping courier, no us based tracking information. I reached out to the business letting them know and kept getting the same auto reply to check with my local courier and neighbors but I have and there was never any package delivered. I have a ring doorbell too and there is nothing showing it was delivered or stolen off my porch. They are refusing to give me back my money. I feel scammed completely out of my money.

Advertisement on Facebook showed models wearing sandals with the label Clark's. They were advertised as orthopedic sandals, comfortable to wear, from the Clarks company. When I receive them there was no Clark name on the shoe, they were made from plastic and very flat and uncomfortable. Definitely false advertisement. I've noticed that others have tried to write negative comments. And I have noticed that negative comments are soon erased from the Facebook advertisement.

I saw a promotion online from Derm La Fleur which offered a trial size bottle of skin lotion for the price of only the shipping cost. I paid $6.99 for the shipping of the product and received it in the mail. A few days later, I see in my bank account that this company had charged me $129.99 for another “order” of the product, that I had never placed or authorized! I called them the next morning and was told that by paying for the shipping on the “trial”, that I am now signed up for a subscription to be automatically charged. There were NO terms and conditions to read on the website, and nothing that I agreed to! Nothing. I was rudely treated by the service rep. and I was told that because I am canceling my subscription, I was responsible for half the cost of my “free” trial bottle, plus the $6.99 shipping fee! Again, there was NOTHING on this website stating this would happen, nor did I agree to any terms and conditions of such. My money was essentially stolen from my bank account without my realization or authorization.

I was trying to get global entry- the website that popped up first was global-entry-pass- us.com

I began to complete all my passport info, drivers license info, past 5 years employment, and past 5 years of residence. They were charging me 100 dollars plus a 149 processing fee - I’ve never tried to get global entry before but then I realized I was charged 149 which should not be. Cancelled my credit cards, froze, credit, contacted us passport office to see if I need a new passport- terrible to be taken advantage of in this way

Was messaged by a guy named Paul Thomas on Facebook about purchasing some bourbon. Was told I could get two bottles of Elmer T for $101 which included shipping. Told me to send payment through cash app, PayPal, Zella and Venmo. I only had Venmo so he said to send to @tyactup TeriqueMoore but it wouldn't let me make payment. Gave me two references on Facebook, Gelfand Oliver and Rodger Everson. Got a hold of Gelfand Oliver and he said that he was good to go. I sent money through PayPal to [email protected] but didn't work and told me to cancel. Went by Poco Lee. I tried again and payment went through but then the other payment went through as well. He told me that he would FedEx the next day but then came back saying I needed to ship a min. of 6 bottles. Wanted me to send more money. Also went by [email protected] Delfosse Pierro, [email protected], Lowenstein Hilary Kreger. He told me that I would thank him at the end. No risk no reward and about trust and he was giving me a 100% guaranteed.

I saw this ad on Instagram about a product called: "Remifa™ WINDPOWER 1500W Electric Portable Heater Blower", so I ordered 3 of these products through their Instagram ad, and what I received from this company was 3 cheaply made mini fans that weren't even worth $5 each! So when I tried to contact them for a complaint and refund, their email didn't even work and the email bounced back!

I applied to renew my passport and gave secure information, including my date of birth, address, social security number, parents' names and date of birth, and credit card number. As soon as I gave them my credit card number, they e-mailed me documents to download and send to the government to renew my passport.

Saw ad on Facebook for Overstock items. Placed order on 10/31/23 by credit card and never received goods. Sent email to "vendor" and they replied it was delivered and I should check with the post office or my neighbors. The link they sent to me to check the status looked suspicious so I did not feel comfortable clicking on it. I have copied the email correspondence below.

This is a website attempting to use the likeness of another website;

https://activityzone.shop/

https://www.escapeoutdoors.com/

I will break down the scam:

The '"activityzone" website appears as close as possible to the actual brand Escape Outdoors; I will be abbreviating activityzone as (AZ) for succinctness and ease of reading. AZ posts' a random copyright "© Outdoor Outlets" at the bottom of their page, already not matching the name of the website. The "About us" section for AZ rips the same photos for the actual Escape Outdoors "About Us"

https://www.escapeoutdoors.com/pages/about-us

https://activityzone.shop/about/

Cont. AZ does not accept AMEX - which is as we know the best company for disputing fraudulent charges and actually getting them fixed; second, they AZ list in the bottom right that they take Maestro - the European debit card and prepaid cards owned by Mastercard and discontinued: July 1, 2023 (Europe only). In the bottom right the accepted payment methods are Visa, Mastercard, Maestro, PayPal, and Discover. However, when you get to their actual checkout page they list they only accept Visa, Mastercard, PayPal; another intra-site discrepancy.

They boldly claim at the checkout page they are accredited by [YOU] the ScamPulse.com (hint: they're not).

Finally (BIG POINT); if you go to the AZ "Contact us" webpage it is clearly a scam as they were not smart enough to fix this page.

https://activityzone.shop/contact-us/

Breakdown: The directions to their store link to a random street in the middle of Stockholm, Sweden and not Seattle, Washington which they are claiming to be. BIG: Look under the "Frequently asked Questions" sections and each FAQ drop down contains the same block of text...

"Meditation williamsburg kogi blog bushwick pitchfork polaroid austin dreamcatcher narwhal taxidermy tofu gentrify aesthetic."

and it does not contain any actual information. The FAQ questions may appear to be legitimate, however the answers are certainly not.

This company is listing high end and brands that people actively seek out to purchase such as but not limited to "Patagonia", "Arc'Teryx", "Canada Goose", "The North Face", etc. AZ is clearly an attempt to scam customers and steal their information by appearing at the top of search results when looking for these brands of clothing to sell. They offer exceptional discounts that would be appealing to any pocket-conscious buyer. I recommend swift and immediate action before they are allowed to steal any further personal information and possibly identifiers that are typically required with the online shipping and billing checkout process.

Scam website: [AZ] https://activityzone.shop/

presenting itself as this (actual and legitimate website): https://www.escapeoutdoors.com/

Contact was made on Instagram as Anderson_fursuit_creations offered open commisions for fur suits.

An agreement was made for $**** for a Full Partial. Half up front, half when suit was finished.

A Reference sheet for colors and design was sent. The initial payment was sent to a Tammie Gillenwater on Paypal. Address for shipment was provided.

I was then told there was problem and to send them the rest of the money. I said no, and contacted Paypal.

A week later I was presented with a picture of a completed partial that looked nothing like the Reference sheet.

I contacted a reputable fur suit maker that I had worked with before. They noted that the picture was stolen from a fellow suit maker and the guy I was in contact with was most likely a scam.

I messaged him again, noted I found the owner of the suit he was trying to put off as his own and requested a refund.

He has since not responded.

Ordered a custom NFL Jersey on 9/28/2023. Received 11/3/2023. Right team, but wrong number and name. Requested refund. The company agreed and said it would take 2-3 business days. They did not request to have the jersey returned to them. Waited 15 days before following up. Was told the refund had been processed. They provided some screenshot of the refund transaction where there was no reference to the card type or card number the refund was supposedly issued to. Never received the refund after multiple emails over several weeks. Was lied to about the refund being sent and told to work it out with my credit care company. Concerning business practices.
