Partial refund still pending after 30 days.

Contacted vendor for status update, included all pertinent info.

Was asked to provide a "screenshot of my bank account showing that funds had been removed" !

Asked three times why and received vague non-replies.

In the absence of any reasonable reason, I am assuming some kind of phishing scam.

I received the following text on my phone at 12:19 pm Aug. 22, 2022 - (my phone number is 518-894-5128): "Order Generated: Your order has been placed on AMZON and your card will charge $480.92 for ID AMZ99013372 if you want to cancel call Amazon care at +18086492087"

I made no such order and when I checked my Amazon account on their website, there was no such order at Amazon, so obviously it is a scam.

They did not get away with anything because I did not call the number, but if I had called they might have tried to get me to say "yes" and then target me in some way.

Received a call from a Mr. Blevins claiming to be the ScamPulse.com about important documents relating to packages. English was not his primary language.  He became very rude when i asked questions about his call and what packages he was talking about.  I dont have any complaints pending with ScamPulse.com and dont have a business.  this seems fake

My mother (75) was called by a man who said he was with Amazon Customer Service. He said someone had tried to charge a laptop to her Amazon account. He said he’d help her fix the issue. They got access to her phone and could see everything she was doing. He instructed her to go to cash app and have one of her contacts (me) to set up a DUMMY transaction and to send $879.00 to her. I was very reluctant to do this but she assured me it was legit. So he had her send a request to my cash app for $879.00. I clicked on it and it sent it straight from my bank account. But she did not receive it. We do not know where the money went and now I’m fighting to get my money back.

My bank is working to help me, but I fear it’s gone.

Please share this with consumers so they are not scammed like I was. Thank you!

I’ve been receiving multiple emails from obvious scammers claiming my Norton and McAfee subscriptions have been paid to the tune of $250 to $488. I don’t have either of those services. They say to use their link or call if I want to cancel. I’m also getting similar scam emails about Amazon services I don’t use. Their email addresses are obviously fake such as: [email protected]/protection

Was on computer and received screaming message that my identity had been compromised and I needed to contact Microsoft at a certain number, which I did. This guy golf me his name and Microsoft employee number and said they would work with me to resolve this. He told me I’m order to help me he would have to be able to get inside my computer to see what was going on. He had me access something like anytime desk and then to teamviewer. He showed me time after time that someone had been in my computer in the early AM’s of many days. This further scared me. Then he told me it would cost $199 for one service and another $199 for another in order to go beyond what Microsoft normally does for free in cases like these. I was also to pay these charges with prepaid cards. So, like a fool I bought EBay and Nike cards with my debit card (I could only do that or with cash). All in all I lost $2000. Just want to warn everyone out there to beware of this scamming. DO NOT BUY PREPAID CARDS TO PAY SOMEONE.

I received a text message from 799-13 saying something about my social security code. I checked with Sprint tech support, and they said it could have been a glitch and that I should ignore it. The number on the message does not match anything personal belonging to me. I will include a screen shot of the text message.

Got a postcard with no return address with a stamp from 2016 that said CALL NOW FOR YOUR FREE TARGET GIFTCARD! I callde to see who it was and they asked for my name and the tracking number. I asked who they were.They said they could not tell me unless i give them the tracking number and my name. I called from a restricted number so that they could not track me. And he got mad and said...'I figured you didnt because you are calling from a restricted number!!" And i hung up.

Every day I receive multiple calls from the same number. If I don’t answer they will call over and over till I do answer. They say their name but when they say with .... it cuts out. When I say anything they immediately hang up. I finally called the number back and it only gives two options: customer service rep or add number to do not call list. If you try customer service they always say no representative is available then give you an email address (customerservice [email protected]). I have added my number twice to the do not call list and they are still calling. At this point this is harassment and I don’t know what else to do. Just want them to stop calling my phone.

Hello this is like my 4th call and they leave a message, by a lady, it's on my cell phone i do not answer calls, if i don't know it. People that call me have a picture and i know them. they leave a message that says "Considered as an intentional fraud and lawsuit has been filed under your name by the United States government you may call our department number 347-943-3703 repeat 347-943-3703.

i delete them right away but this time i made a photo copy of the message and now I'm blocking the number. They do not call me by name , my first or last name. Don't know what they are talking about, If I'm in a lawsuit for sure i would be getting a letter but they don't know who i am because they never mention my name. I don't appreciate these calls but i refuse to call them. and i won't

I got a call saying there is a warrant for my arrest. I know that it was a scam because if they had a warrant, they would come to my house.
