I purchased 33.00 dollars worth of yarn and have not recieved any updates on the order i placed. Many people online are talking about how Joann is having a lot of fake websites that are not truly authentic. I used the website https://www.joannusofficialstore.com/

I was on my computer and suddenly it crashed and came up on the screen to call Microsoft and gave me the number..I called and spoke to a guy named Sam Martin..After all the info I gave him including bank and debit card I was told I needed to buy 6 Apple gift cards totaling $3,000.I was so frustrated about my computer crashing I did it thinking that it would be fixed.He told me that my 3,000 would be refunded in my bank..this all took place on December 16th..After many calls to call him he kept giving me the runaround and finally stopped responding..so I have 6 500.00 gift cards and can’t seem to get in contact with Apple which are the gift cards..I am so upset about this.. I’m a 74 year old senior citizen and on a fixed income.

Received an email from this office pretending to have X-rays from prior visits. As a former patient, I figured it was legit. Upon further inspection-the email seemed suspicious with its additional access requirements. On 10-20-2025 I called and spoke with the office manager who said they recently changed their software and are unable to contact their client base to advise of the hack. Would not explain why no effort to contact potential victims? I explained this was unacceptable. It puts all of their clients at risk and being the organization is aware, they should be advising all their clients. She said there was nothing they could do about it.

They called and said they were from JP Morgan Chase fraud dept and that I had a pending preauth. transaction in the amount of $6000 that would be debited from my account within 2 hours for someone trying to buy a gift card. They said the only way I would not lose a single penny is if I wired the same amt of $6000 to someone from the my bank to purchase a gift card, and then they would rewire back to me and the bank would see it was a bogus transaction and refund me by 5p CST on 9/22. Then they said they were getting the FTC involved or so I thought, and the supposed FTC was then on the line and started asking me a bunch of personal information like my birth date, last 4 of social, where I worked , if I had a 401k, what I pay for rent, etc . They also did a screen share with me to walk me through in my bank app how to do a wire transfer. Long story short, I wired the money and they took it. I did not get refunded. That was 2 days ago.
