Instagram account claimed to be a real hacker named Patrick Gorman who had a real online presence with LinkdIn and YouTube etc. Services offered were for gig economy app reactivation and bot order grabbers. I was attempting to get reactivated for Amazon Flex. I was told it would take 3-4 hours at a cost of $200. Then much later I was told it would be another $250 because there were extra obstacles encountered. After sending that, I was repeatedly ignored and laughed at. Now I can see the account has been duplicated with small changes to the user name, and new pictures impersonating other people. I had given my name email and zip code including a selfie.

saw an ad from Jennifer Garner about a Coffee Pot she was promoting - cost was the cost of shipping. 7.85. I am now seeing that this is a scam, and they can go after my credit cards for 100s a month. I have change the credit card number and reported the fraud. I am also reporting it here.

Scammer posed as a joint venture between Jennifer Garner & Le Creuset free give-way of 11 piece set. Cost: Shipping fee $9.95

It is a scam so I found out. I have reported it to Synchrony Bank. The charge is pending on my account.

After further inquiry found that they are scammers.

On Instagram they advertised as selling Stanley 1913 cups with their logo. When you click on it, they continue to use Stanley 1913 logo. Bought 2, get one free for seasonal offers. They send you a confirmation email with Stanley 1913, trying to seem legit with a costumer service contact page. When I clicked on the website link shared to go back to the original website, it sent me to a clothing website instead. Looking closer into the matter, the link from Instagram sends you to another false website if you try to copy and paste it, but in your charges, it will show as a michlgoods.com charge. False advertisement by impersonating a well-known company logo and merchandise.

They advertised Bath and Body Works 3 wick candles at a discounted rate $2.85. It was on Instagram and the page looked identical to the Bath and Body Works original page. When I tried to track my order Bath and Body Works had no record and Risetor.com appears on my bank statement along with $1.78 debit card Int’l fee.

There was an ad on Instagram advertising clearance on Bath & Body works 3 wick candles. I purchased many candles. As soon as I put in my credit card information, it said payment inactive and I was kicked off the website and I couldn't recover or search my order. I just noticed now that 39.41 came off my credit card under Risetor.com Belfast IN.

There was a listing on Instagram - an ad for Coldwater Creek, saying they were having a massive sale. I've bought from Coldwater Creek's catalog in past years, and their items were good quality. Given the prices it seemed a little too good to be true, but after doing a few Google searches for "Coldwater Creek scam/Coldwater Creek instagram/Coldwater Creek fake" etc., I didn't find anything, so I placed a big order. I received a confirmation email, and a shipping email, telling me they were using CustomerCare-VIP.com for shipping. Three days later I got an email saying it was shipped, with a tracking number. When I click on the link, it shows multiple locations tracked from China to Los Angeles. When nothing had arrived after a few weeks, I checked again and the tracking link said it had been delivered. I checked with neighbors (we definitely have porch pirates, but my front door is hard to see from the street, so it's usually safe.) None of my neighbors had seen a package delivered. I checked with customer service who insisted it had been delivered and to check with the post office. I checked the tracking number with the post office and they have no record of any package with that tracking number, much less one being delivered. I contacted customer service again, and they assured me it had been delivered and suggested that since it would have been a small package, maybe I just wasn't seeing it. Since I had ordered a few sweaters, some pants, and a full-length coat, I told them that if it was a small package, it definitely hadn't included everything I bought, and, again - the PO had never heard of it. Also, the customer service chat interface is super-janky and looks like it is being run out of someone's basement. The company keeps insisting the package has been delivered, and I keep insisting it hasn't (as backed up by the USPS). So, things are going nowhere.

One artist on instagram asked me if she can have one of my pictures for a project with her client, and I would also get paid for that. Since I was always interested in art, I accepted without knowing it was a scam.

They said for the transaction, they would only need "my real name and email address". Then their client will send me a "fraud check" which is fake money, through email, I was also told to save the check and deposit it through mobile deposit. After I deposited the money, they ask me to send them back a few amount like 200-600$. But since their check is not real, I was basically sending my OWN MONEY to them and I got scrammed of 700$.

On October 19 2023 I got an offer from someone wanting to buy one of my NFTs for above my asking price. On November 6 2023 I saw the message and responded, and the supposed buyer directed me to a transaction page specifically of that NFT. While everything looked like a typical Makersplace page (Makersplace.com is the website I hosted the NFT on), I did notice that the root url was "makersplace.pro," and "makersplace.store", which I thought was a little weird, but when I would type in just those root urls it would take me to the normal makersplace.com home page. So I assumed it was just another domain under the Makersplace umbrella. I was told on the transaction page that in order to complete AML certification I had to link funds equal to the buyer's offer from my wallet to the transaction page, so 1 ETH. But because of an error I had to do that twice. I completed the transaction and "AML certification" on November 10, and support told me the buyer's funds would appear in my Metamask wallet within 48 hours. It's been over 48 hours (though most of that wasn't business days) and I still haven't seen any funds, so I am confident I have been scammed out of 2 ETH. Checking on the Makersplace Discord, I've found screenshots from "buyers" that use the same wording in their messages and direct to very similar webpages with different web suffixes like I noticed. The transaction pages I was directed to are below, though they are now offline:

https://transaction.makersplace.pro/confirm/neon-glisten

https://transaction.makersplace.store/confirm/neon-glisten

I have screenshots of the conversation and transaction page with the supposed support agent. I also have screenshots of the crypto exchange logs and have written down the transaction IDs and the crypto wallet address that the funds were sent to. I can send them in as part of this scam complaint submission, but I'm having trouble using the file upload feature on the website. I'm also hoping informing the authorities about the scam will help prevent scams like this in the future. I'd very much appreciate any help you can give me on this subject, especially in the area of recovering my lost funds. Thank you for your time.

I received an Instagram request from someone called Emmeuro with a Instagram account of tammy_cliffwebstar1 ~ here is the following message that was attached:

My name is Tammy Cliff Webster the Illinois lottery winner of $393million,Ready to help the 1st 2kfollowers like I promises watch me on YouTube

That is exactly as it was typed. I saved a screen shot of the page. Of course I fell for the first part in responding. Then had sense enough to search for the couple and found the scam part. That is why I'm reporting it to you.

Hello, I contacted this person to purchase one of their vehicles. He stated he is a dealership, he meets people in variety of places in intersections and near his home in Canal Rd and Garfield Rd Clinton Township as well as a mechanic shop on 19 mile rd and Garfield Clinton Township. He emphasizes he is a business in Instagram (https://www.instagram.com/auto__eno/) and Facebook (https://www.facebook.com/people/auto__eno/100081992914618/). He has sold many cars as well as one to one of my friends. He gave me limited warranty on the vehicle, when the car broke down. He did not honor the warranty and i could not find any business records for him. I think this is a big potential scam as its is active and still going on.

October 22,2023 I ordered on Instagram flash sale; 3 bottles of Keto gummies at $39.99. I was charged $239.99 ! on my Visa. First charge was declined, second charge went through under a different company name; they us multiple names. I called the number on my account, a lady whom i didnt get her name asked if i had reported it to my bank. I said yes, then she said the money was re-imbursed back to my me and my account was closed, Customer # 195; it will take 7-10 business days to go back into my account. That didnt happen. My Visa is making me pay for this. I will pay the $39.99 for my stupidity but not an inflated $239.99 charge. I was scammed ! I received the gummies but she told me I cant return them. I would like to return them and get my money back. I received 6 bottles of gummies not 3. I am worried about them sending me more; thinking that I paid for a subscription or trial that i cant cancel which i asked her also and she denied.
