I had placed an order with Big Lots advertised as a bankruptcy closing sale. I checked what I thought was thoroughly online googling scams with this info. I also looked for secure site endorsement. I placed an order, I checked daily and they posted the steps of my order until it was handed off to logistics/shipping company ( fedx) It never went past that step. I tried to contact someone all contact info is fake.

32° is a well known clothing company and advertises on Facebook. I have ordered and received great clothing from them, starting in 2015 when they sold through Macy’s. I ordered for a 3rd time on Facebook, and noticed the platform used was “Lightchime” - thought I had just missed that before when ordering. They wouldn’t take my Amex which I thought was odd. I ended up using my Chase debit, which had Visa attached - thinking it would process as a credit card. However, because I manually input my information, the bank would not stop the pending charge, and I have to wait now til the charge posts to my account before they will help me, by entering it as a dispute. In the meantime, I cancelled my card. I have always been careful and never been scammed before - this is a first for me.

The website looked like bath and bodywork’s. They were offering 75% off many items. Candles were 3.95, wallflowers were 3.99 for two. They sent a tracking manifest. Whenever I had a question they emailed right back. After a month of waiting for products I asked for refund. Was told they wanted to continue to look for my parcel. At that point I knew I was scammed. Famous last words, if it seems to good to be true go with your instinct. They are all over Facebook.

I didn't answer a call from an unknown caller. The voice mail had music playing, and then a computerized message came on and said, "This call is to authorize the payment of $1499 for the recent order of Apple MacBook Pro on your Amazon account. If you do not authorize this payment, please press one to speak to our customer support representative."

A bait and switch scam, posing as Amazon.com, selling unwanted merchandise. You pay 29.00 plus tax . Instead of getting what was promised, I received a cheap small gift, not worth 5.00

Anthropology sale ad on Facebook. I clicked on site and ordered several items that totalled $44.19 on December 29, 2024

It was a huge savings from original prices and I was skeptical. After I made the purchase, I did a search online and discovered that it was reported as a scam.

I was contacted by Fieldloom that my items were bring shipped but I never received them. I emailed Fieldloom and they claim the items were delivered. Other victims of scam website report similar experiences.

I saw an ad on social media for Neiman Marcus Last Call discounted prices on brand name purses. Neiman Marcus is reputable company.. So I took a chance to buy it. I purchased a Louie Vuitton. Thinking I can return it.( I realize now they are using Neiman Marcus brand name) Wrong, it starts with a process. Which they give you a time frame to send you the image of the purse order and you have 24 hours before they will ship it out to you. I saw the image of the purse and I knew it was fake and replica is not even good. The stitch pattern design of Louie Vuitton at the top of by the seam the prints are cut off before the sew line. So you can noticed it right away. I sent an email right away! Said no I do not want it. I get an email stating okay, they will refund you. Then I get a second email and they said oh no they can’t because the purse already sent to the courier. I just thought okay I’ll send it back. I finally received it, the package came from some random person from USA. And the website said it will come in a box. False advertisement! It did not came in box. It came in a plastic bag and it was flat.. So I email back complaining and ask them to provide me an address so I can return it and they keep trying to get me to keep it, offering a discount. 6 emails later and two different email addresses they have. They provided me an address which is in Singapore!? I’m in the USA. It cost more to ship back to them. I ask why I have to ship back there? They said that’s the corporate office. I was no way! I got my package from some lady in USA. I have proof from the mailing label. But they just ignore my question asking why it was from New Jersey. Now Im stuck with a fake Louie Vuitton. This company should be shut down. They lie about be being authentic. They are using a reputable company name to get people to order from them. Their website is misleading. Do not go on www.nemarcus.com. Fake and False advertisement..

Website disguises itself as Boot Barn having sales on boots. The order never comes to address. Says on tracker it is coming with your city name and delivered. Attempt to email them and they re-send the package..which never shows up as well. They then offer to refund you 70% of what you paid. Stating they can't refund all money.

A person reading from a prepared statement identified himself as "Patrick from Wal-Mart."He said that a "Mission Impulse 3-D Headset" had been ordered from my Wal-Mart account for $919.45, and that there had also been a Playstation 5 with Mission Impulse headset ordered for $919.45 as well. The message then said if I wished to cancel the order I was to call (628) 529-1587 and press one.

I saw an add on Pinterest and clicked on it. It took me to, what I thought was, Joann fabrics website. I had seen that the company was closing down, so I thought it was a legit site and didn't bother to check. I was purchasing yarn and didn't find any of the sales to be suspicious so I made a purchase of $65. Then I started looking at other items and saw that a cricut maker 3 bundle was on sale for under $50. That would normally cost almost $500. That is when i decided to look up the website and investigate a little better and realized I had gotten scammed. When checking my bank account I noticed that more money was taken out and the"receipt" that was emailed was in my spam folder. There is no customer service phone number or online chat to report a problem or cancel an order. And the tracking number sent is fake.

We placed an order for shoes on a website that, at first glance, appeared to be the legitimate website for DC Shoes. After ordering, we never received a confirmation email or tracking information, and never received the product. We were charged (luckily via Paypal), yet the seller's name in Paypal was "Christie Hammes" and the associated email was [email protected]. Neither of these names appear to be associated with the website or contact information provided on the website. I did contact the Rebekah Barajas email requesting additional information and expressing my concern, but never received a reply.

After reviewing the website, I am certain it is a scam. The URL to the scam website is: https://www.dcshoesskate.com/ while the legitimate DC shoes website is: https://www.dcshoes.com/.
