- Waco, TX, USA

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!

She tried to get me to be her sugar baby and send me weekly payments just for giving her affection and my time basically. She sent me a big amount of money after only talking for like 3 days and said she wanted me to send some of the money to an orphanage. I told her id wait for the check to be completely deposited and she insisted it's legit and i had nothing to worry about no matter how many times i told her i wasn't sending anything until it was completely deposited

After that he said “ A minimum deposit of $150 has to be on your cash app as bitcoin,sending to the activation id that’s going to serve as the activation unlock so your account can reflect not as a dormant account on the paylist ,once it’s confirmed and the activation is done you get the money immediately” “Remember you get refunded after the activation so you are getting back $5150”

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.

I reached out to this person who goes by Anasia, A1, and A1 THE BRAIDER (touchbya1 on Instagram). I asked her how to book for braiding services. She responded to my text and advised me that I needed to pay a $20 deposit to secure my hair appointment. I sent her a screenshot showing her that the paid the deposit. We set up an appointment for Monday at 10:30am. On the morning of my appointment she sent me a text message at 6:55am asking me if I could come at 2:30pm instead because she forgot that she had an appointment at 9:30am. I agreed to come five hours later at 2:30pm as she requested. Then at 1:40pm, she sent the following text message, "Hey hun something is wrong with our lights but we getting them fixed right now." I sent her a text message saying I was on my way there, and she didn't respond. I called her and when she answered, I let her know that I was on my way to her house. She said "I wouldn't head over right now, because I don't know when the lights are going to be fixed." I advised her that if it was going to be after my appointment time, then I would need my deposit back. She agreed. Once my appointment time passed, I called her to ask her to send my deposit back. She didn't answer. I sent her a text message advising her to send me my deposit back, and she sent the following text message, "I'm going to send it back !!" She still has not refunded my deposit.

She is a scammer. She will take your deposit and then ghost you.

They have a Facebook and instagram storfront page listing dresses. I ordered two. I have the invoice and the reciept of payment on Venmo. This was done March 25, 2023. It’s May 9th, I have sent several messages where at first the person gave me reasons it wasn’t shipped yet. Then after a month passed they no longer responded. I actually went on the Facebook and asked if this happened to anyone else and the person who ran the page turned off all comments so no one could discuss what had happened. I’ve made several attempts to let them make it right and they haven’t and I am now hoping this will not happen to anyone else and I’m reporting it.

I contacted Sophia from the504creativestudio in Fresno to schedule a photo session back in August 2022. I paid her two times, one payment was a down-payment and the final one was the total amount of the actual photography session. She told me to pick up the photos in a week. It's been ten months and I have not received anything. I tried to reach out (phone calls, messages, social media) to her but she never replies back eventhough she has seen my messages. I seen messages on her social media from other clients of her making the same complain.

Scammer is posing as a legitimate tattoo artist. My wife messaged him, they discussed a tattoo, he agreed to do the work in exchange for the money. Scammer proceeded to ignore her request for booking an appointment. She sent the money, he proceeded to block her and ignore her.

I saw a weekender bag advertised on Instagram from who I thought was QVC Outlet. I paid for said purchase…received tracking information. After more than a month, the tracking indicated it was delivered. I reached out to company 3 times before they responded. FINALLY received a response that directed me to ‘check with the neighbors’ for the bag. I in turn emailed them back saying that my Ring camera could ‘see’ that it wasn’t delivered. I am now being ‘ghosted’ and will try to appeal to my CC company for a refund.

The scammer is advertising tattoo specials such as an 8 hour tap out special for $400. When you contact him he is asking for a deposit of $400 and to book your appointment date and time. His receipt he send has an address and once you show up to the address it’s an apartment that isn’t his. The rental office told us that multiple people have been there looking for him, be he isn’t a renter at their location.

I ordered the tiktok leggings off of an ad on Instagram over two months ago Big mistake apparently. Last i knew with tracking they were stuck in IL. I emailed the address from customer service about it and they claimed it was my carriers fault that my address was unavailable. I talked with my PO and they said that was untrue and they never received the package. I sent another email stating this and they said they couldnt get rhe package back nor were they responsible for the loss, even though they confirmed the whereabouts of it, because i had requested a refund. They then stated they could send me another order but it would cost me the same amount plus shipping! Do they think im stupid?? I told them no i wanted a refund and would be sure to file with the BBB. Lost money on this order and will never order from them again.

Advertised on Instagram a diet pill for 3 months with money back guarantee. Guarantee is false. Pills did absolutely nothing…just B12. Money back was denied. False advertising

Family member reached out to the business owner to receive a service. The service was hair and make up. The family member paid for the service upfront as that is what the merchant requested. The family member paid a $50 deposit fee, and the rest of the service was $150. The business owner stated that once the deposit was sent and the balance was paid, she would provide the address of the business. When the payment was paid, the business owner stopped all communication and blocked my family member from her booking site and Instagram page.
