Wrote a post on Reddit. Received a message about this psychic that could help my family out. Began speaking to her on Sunday the 21st, 2023. She requested 60$ for the first reading, giving me a vague paragraph of things I already mentioned. I began feeling uneasy and thought he’d be a scammed but there was so much happening in our lives I continued. She requested me to donate to the orphanage he worked with which I thought was weird as there are no orphanages in the US. She told me to send 120$-180$ for materials for a spell to help my family and to send more money to the orphanage. I could only send 110$ at the time. A few days go by and I send her the remaining 150$, which she had changed as well as 50$ to the orphanage even though I had sent it already. At this point I’m done. I have no more money to give and I have yet to get anything other than a few sentences. She began asking me for more and more and when I said I wasn’t financially off she continued hitting me with, “you don’t have to but things will go wrong and your brother will loose everything even his mind.” I put my foot down and called her out for scamming me and not truly following through. At this moment she is messaging me claiming she has my families best interest at heart and im only asking for my brother to be hurt.

I made a Gofundme. I posted my Gofundme to Instagram. I got a comment from this account @we_are_philanthropist on Instagram. So, before I contacted them. I check their page out and they had videos of people giving testimonials that they have received help from this account. So, I figured by the testimonies they were legit in what they do. They claim they are a charity that helps the less privileged. So I contacted a man named Terry Guzman from the email [email protected] that they had on their profile bio. I talked with this person for 2 weeks. They asked for personal banking information and which I was very hesitant to give out. But I figured since they had people saying they were helped. They seemed legit. Mind all of this me and my family were facing an eviction. As to why I made the Gofundme in the first place. My husband ended up finding a job. So I told Terry that I no longer needed the help financially. He kept insisting that everyone needs help. They ended paying two of my credit cards in which I had refused for them to pay. They had me convert one of my credit cards into bitcoin. And like an [censored] I sent them a bitcoin payment from my credit card that they paid off and then wanted me to open a new bank account to deposit money into. The bitcoin transaction raised a red flag for me, as well as them trying to get me to open new bank accounts. I stopped talking to them and blocked the number. The moment I stopped talking to them. They started sending me threats to me and my family. Claiming that I stole the money from the other credit card they paid off. Fortunately. I did not touch the money they paid on my other credit card that had the higher credit limit. I filed a police report and reported it to my bank. Unfortunately, I lost the financial relationship with my bank because of this person trying to scam me. As well, the payment that was made to bitcoin. The payment will mostly like be returned on my credit card. Lesson learned, please be aware of people that are contacting you on social media, when you are going through a time of need especially financial needs.

Offer for name brand tennis shoes came up in an ad on Instagram. TJ Maxx was the store listed. After transaction was made and several days went by I had to inquire about my order, I then was emailed a tracking number, it took a month to receive shoes and they were a completely different tennis shoe knockoff. I reached out to the email available and received a sob story about single moms running the business and they would be fired if shoes were returned. I am considering it a loss and a lesson learned; if it’s too good to be true, IT IS!

I met a guy who was very nice to me. We go out and hangout, he picks me up to my place and we go out. After few days of hanging out with him he suddenly asked for my help to send money to his bodyguard cuz this so called bodyguard of his is on vacation with the girlfriend according to him. So i did help him, i even asked my friends to help me send his bodyguard some money because I already exceeded my limit on my zelle. So one of my friend help me send the bodyguard a $4k and $1k from my own bank account ($5k in total). So on the day where he was supposed to pick me up to pay all the money he owes me, he suddenly blocked me so I tried calling the number where we sent the money. He picked up my call and he answered it, I explained him everything what happened cuz he said he has no idea so he told me he will talk to his friend. I begged him to help me bring back the money and he said he will. I send him all the transactions made, all the conversations where a friend of his asked for money cuz he claimed it that he needs it. I did everything i can to prove him that his friend scammed me so he said he will help me. Tried calling him back but he blocked me too. But all the evidences are still with me. All the transactions receipts, conversations and their numbers is still with me. I just badly need the money back cuz i need to pay my friend the $4k and my last money is the $1k. Thats all i need.

I was offered a puppy for $730 total cost deliver to my door steps. I sent the money for the puppy the guy said he received it and he was going to sent me the tracking information which he did. The company is guaranteed fast shipping express. Which I believe they must be working with him too. And I hour later they sent me an email that the puppy was out for delivery them 30 minutes later they sent me another email that the puppy needed a ac Crete to travel and that I was responsible to paid for it. I had to paid $1,250 supposedly it was refundable when the puppy was deliver after I paid that the guy call me again to tell me it was another issue that now the puppy need it insurance. I told the guy that I didn’t have the money the he need to paid it and he told that he didn’t have no money this is your responsibility you told me it was only 730 for the dog. Them I received I email from the pet agency saying that it was my responsibility that I can go to jail and theycan take me to court if I don’t paid for the insurance. That is animal cruelty and so on and on. So I got scare and paid another $ 1,500. Them they charge me a $380 late charge. And say that I was going to receive the puppy today that was the last payment. They sent me another notification that the dog was out for delivery and them 2 hours later they sent me another email stating that the dog was in Orlando airport and it cannot be delivered to my house because it was missing a shot and the doctor certificate was 35 days old and it need it to be 30 days. So that I was responsible again to paid for the test and shot. And I need to sent them another $ 1,800 that was also refundable at the time of delivery. So I told them that I was going to call the police and for them not to call me again. And yes he’s still trying to get more money. Oh yeah they also remained it me that if I don’t pay for it I will go to jail. Is a shame but lesson learned. Don’t believe everything you see in the internet. He even sent me video of the puppy.

The scammer claimed to have a business on photographing clients’ eyes to print on canvas or frames. He showed example photos to me and photographed my eye in the conference room of his apartment complex and then gave me a delivery date of 5 business days from the photo edit. After he confirmed the photo edit with me a week later through text, he never contacted me again or delivered the portrait.

I saw an Instagram post on 4/21/2023 that was advertising "HOKA Clearance Sale" with "Last 5 Days For Only $59" for HOKA tennis shoes. At the top of the Instagram post, it had "Humanoid Clothing Co." When I clicked on the arrow to shop for the offered shoe designs, the following website populated onto the top of the site: www.hokamartket.com . I selected the shoes I wanted to buy and completed the purchase using a personal MasterCard credit card for the amount of $66.89. I was provided an order number as follows: M32023042218891721. The cost of the one pair of shoes was $59.90 + $6.99 for shipping fees for a total of $66.89. I ordered a pair of HOKA Clifton 9 Women's Airy Blue/Ice Water shoes. What I received on 5/16/2023 was what appeared to be a used pair of Adidas 350 Keezy knock offs of poor quality and design. They appeared to be used shoes due to having a soiled sole of the bottoms of both shoes upon opening the package. The shipping package had the following return address: LAX 1550 Glenn Curtiss St. Carson, CA 90478. The USPS Tracking #eVS on the shipping label was as follows: 9261 2903 0172 2300 0299 2290 84. The site appeared legitimate due to the HOKA Company information being displayed at the bottom of the advertisement. It listed HOKA 2647 Pin Oak Drive, Los Angeles, CA, United States. It also had the word "LEGAL" listed under this address. All of the HOKA shoes displayed in the advertisement were real HOKA shoes of various designs. The shoes sent to me did not have HOKA anywhere on them but did have Adidas on the bottom of them. This site is obviously a SCAM site and consumers should be warned of this!

The scammer'Frankie' was referred for my interior painting project. He visited my home on April 21st, reviewed and assessed the painting job. On a quick check, i found that he had LLC "Entity type: DOMESTIC LIMITED LIABILITY COMPANY, Identification Number: 802047894", he quoted the job, convinced me that he would bring his best team and take care of the job. He took a deposit by check and told me that he would start the job on Monday, May 8th. He requested me to identify the paint color and i sent those details to him on April 29th. On May 7th, i texted him to confirm his time of arrival. He responded that he was wrapping another job and mentioned that he would come in on Tuesday, May 9th to start my job. He never showed up and switched off his phone. He is not reachable currently and it appears that he has blocked my phone number as it goes straight to his voicemail every time i call.
