I purchased an item online from her website. I paid her, never received my money or the item

- Tampa, FL, USA

The company advertised for Brand ambassadors to model their wigs on social media. They said they would pay her to post the pictures and videos on social media; all she needed to do is pay the ambassador fee of $35.99 and stated the fees would be refunded after the promotion ends. Today the company kept asking my daughter to send money for shipping. My daughter sent the money and was asked for additional shipping fees.

It was an ad on Instagram about answering a servey to be able to see if I could get the New flavor of Crown Royal Blackberry flavor liqueur and I would only pay S& H and after the servey was done and I put in my information of where I live and my card info , they went and took out $59,98 1st and 10 minutes later took out another $99,98 out of my bank account.. I went to check my bank Account ( I do so after paying something ) I saw what was happening so I called my bank and had my card cancelled on the spot to stop them from taking anymore money out … I can only file a claim of fraud but I lost $160 within 10 minutes… and I can’t contact the site there is no phone number or information then just the name on my bank account.

I saw an advertisement for a 30" wig for $189 on Instagram and decided to purchase it. I had seen this advertisement for a month every day before making the purchase. Once on the checkout screen, I confirmed all my information was correct and pushed the purchase button. As soon as the purchase was completed I received a call from FICO saying my card was locked and I needed to confirm my last 5 transactions. My bank informed me that Dorsanne Hair were scammers and that the transaction was complete. I had to go through the process of getting a new account and debit card. I was so sad. I don't want it to happen to anyone else. The info from the bottom of their email :

This so called business has an uncertified owner teaching healthcare classes and she is not certified to be an instructor. Not a nurse or any type of professional certification.

Was contacted on Instagram with the following:

Congratulations to you, your Instagram profile announce as part of my giveaway program and you're awarded a cash prize of $30,000. Are you ready to claim your winnings now?

This person stood up a convention then cancelled the location to "postpone" it to another time then when that time came close postponed it again. When I reached out asking for a refund they refused saying they would only do so once it was cancelled. Once they finally announced it was cancelled a year later they then shortly after deleted their instagram page, email, and phone number.

Prior to the postponement they also offered autographed merchandise for sale which has a tracking number but has never been picked up (for 2 years now), and since their contact info is now purged i cannot get ahold of them.

Looking today their old cashdrop merchant page now redirects to rocket town comicon and are attempting to collect money again. I have reached out to my creditcard company and provided all this info but despite the fact the seller has no valid contact information, has renamed themselves, and my 1 item has not shipped they will no assist in any way instead saying to take it up with you.

I unaware fell into the muse scam. I received an Instagram message under the name of emilly_paige09. She asked me if she could use one of my photos for an art project and she will give me money for allowing her to use my photo. I’m a college student, so I wanted to use that money to go on a trip that I’m planning to go this year. So I told her that she can. She asked for my email, full name, name of my bank and phone number so that she can use that information so that her “client” can send contact me via text and receive instructions on how to deposit the check. I should’ve known then that it was a scam, but I gave that information to her. I then got contacted by the “client”, and he gave me instructions on how I can deposit that check to my bank account. When I got the check on my email, I took a picture using my bank app and deposited the check, with an amount of $400. The “client” then said that he was going to send another check. Within a few minutes, I received the other check with an amount of $400 and at that moment I instantly realized that I was being scammed. I immediately send a text to the person I was texting on Instagram, emily_paige09, about that there was two checks , which amounted more than what my cut was going to be, which was $500. I also shared my concerned with the “client”, and he was saying things that just didn’t make sense. The check was going to be made for $2,500, I was going to receive my cut for $500 and the rest of the money from the total. The client said that the money can’t be sent directly to emily_paige09, so I had receive all of it. I started arguing with the “client” and told him I won’t deposit any more checks and that I would send the money back. He started to get confrontational and a bit mad. He did provided me with a cash app account, saying it was his “accountant”, which is $MyakiaKromah. I also started to dig in the internet about this scam, and it was indeed very common. I learned about the fake check, or the phantom check, and how that would impact me. I contacted my bank and asked if the deposit that’s in pending could be revoked, and they said no, I had to wait until the next day and call them again.

They advertised themselves as Fashion Nova on Instagram so I clicked on it and placed two order within 3 days of eachother. I received confirmations for each order and then tracking information. But since it was coming from China I really couldn't track the packages. It would just show in transit and then delivered. Never showing me who delivered the packages or where they delivered them to. We have been emailing back and fourth they claimed they resent the packages out and on the days they claimed the packages were delivered I was home and I have security camera. They claimed they were delivered but couldn't provide the delivery service who delivered the packages. Therefore 4 packages never showed up to my home and this has been since Jan 12, 2024 and its now March 6, 2024. Now they claim thewy cannot give me a full refund but a 70% refund and it will take 15-25 days to receive which will be another month, so almost 4 months no packages and no refund. The website they advertised was different from the emails i received and also the charges both of them were from two different names and not even fashion Nova like they claimed.

she told me that I could get my eyelashes done with her to send her $50 deposit and then she never fulfilled the service and kept saying that I would not get my deposit back even though she did not fulfill my service and scammed me for a deposit.

Website states “maltipoo” in business name, however, 2 puppies purchased from her had ZERO Maltese in them: one was found to be poodle/bichon frise, the other did not even have poodle & was a total mutt (schnauzer/cocker spaniel/pit bull). That dog also had Parvo 4 days after we got her, “breeder” refused to pay for or even share costs of $7000 vet bill despite the “healthy pup guarantee”. When “breeder” contacted about pups not actually being Maltipoos, she stated she was simply selling dogs for other breeders & just took their word for it. She offered to get another dog for us if we wanted to re-home that one, like it was no big deal. Obviously we did not get rid of the pup, but we absolutely got scammed! What was supposed to be a small hypoallergenic maltipoo turned out to be a giant, spastic mutt who sheds!

I was contacted by another buyer who was recently scammed by her and then saw another post on her website trying to re-home another non-maltipoo pup that looked very similar to the mutt we got. She needs to be shut down or change the name to “Bay Area Mutts” because that’s what people are unknowingly paying for.

I saw the ad for a legitimate company on Instagram. It looked like it was from Nordstrom Rack. However, when I made the purchase of 2 pairs of boots, even though the heading of the email I received was from Nordstrom, I noticed that the email itself is not from Nordstrom, but from easyassisthub.com. On my credit card, it said that the charge was made from a company called Leslie Sole, which is also a legitimate company, however, this was not on my original confirmation email at all. But because the name Leslie Sole is the name of a real company, my credit card believed this charge is legitimate and did not reimburse me. I could not submit a copy of my confirmation email to dispute this.

It was an ad on Instagram that claimed that Canadian Tire is getting rid of Smeg electric water kettles and people have a chance to win one from remaining inventory for $ 2 or $ 3. There was a picture of a lady who had won one in the ad. I clicked on the ad and then I was told I had three chances to win if I pick the correct gift box. I clicked on one and it was no win. I tried again and this time it showed a smug water kettle. I was then asked to pick a colour. I picked blue. It said the item is $ 2.oo plus shipping. I clicked next and they wanted my name, address, email, telephone number which I provided. Then the next step was to give them the credit card info, which I (stupidly) provided. When all was filled out, a screen popped up that read:

Approved. Congratulations, we've received your entry! If you have any questions, please call our customer service line at (833)652-4076 or email us at [email protected].

I was somewhat puzzled because now they were talking about an "entry" and not a win, but all alarm bells rang when this morning, my husband and I found an invoice of $ 280.00 on the credit card. My husband called the company who charged this amount, but got nowhere with them. Then he called the phone number I had screenshot the day prior, and it was the same lady he had spoken to in his previous phone call. She insisted I had placed an entry to win a kettle for $280!

My husband now has to cancel the credit card and we are trying to dispute this obvious fraud that tricks people into paying a super expensive entry fee - without even the guarantee of a win! It is appalling.

I tried to find this ad on Instagram again today, but couldn't. I had seen it before, once, a couple of weeks ago, but ignored it. I only responded this time because they showed a photo of a winner and because I was t ricked into thinking that this give away lottery is run by Canadian Tire.

I ordered a sweatshirt on Instagram, sent $35 via Zelle, was assured in direct messages that I would receive the product, but then never received it. I now receive no DM responses and have contacted someone at the number provided but have been told she is at work and cannot speak at that time - was told I’d receive a phone call back at a specific time that I never received, and was asked to provide my phone number or email to be reimbursed for what I ordered, but was then hung up on before the conversation ended.

I came across Jenny Daves website JCE Experience on Instagram and wanted to purchase her services / package for valentines day weekend. I paid a total of $500 for her JCE package exerience she called me to confirm payment and arrangements. I drove out of state for her services only to reach out to her to inform me that the hotel reservation was cancelled. She apologized and informed me that she had a series of misfortune events happened that day and she would refund me that night (Feb 17th). I still haven't received a refund as of today 2/26. Jenny has been telling me that she would refund me when she responds and a refund is never sent. This is not how business should be handle and I got scammed out of $500.00.

puppy scammers, of maltipoo and other toy or teacup mixed breeds: Contacted me via IG as Lovely_Pets_home2 (or something very similar. They frequently change their name. First said they were in Little Rock KY, later it was Lexington. I had my daughter contact them on a separate account and she was told Texas. Payment was made via Zelle of $350 to reserve the puppies (there were 2 of them) to a Sarah Lapierre. Later was contacted via email by someone named either David Arthur Beeber, Arthur David Beeber, or a similar combination. I realized it was a scam when I reverse searched the pictures of the puppies and saw they were on other internet sites. Then got more suspicious and did my homework, unfortunately a bit too late. Saw their instagram profile was based out of Cameroon, and the name had changed 7 times previously.

These people were very convincing. Or maybe I was easily tricked because I have purchased animals from breeders online before, and the process was the same for the legit breeders......

This email is a follow-up to my previous complaint against Afterpay and UoLOVA. Because of my repeated requests to UoLOVA to complete a claim with UPS, neither of them has been provided to either party. After conducting independent research on UOLOVA, I discovered numerous customer reviews indicating that the company has cheated several clients of their products. Additionally, I learned that UOLOVA has a local presence in Houston, Texas, and attempted to contact an employee named Anthony at uolova.com and their phone number (407) 479-8039 Directions 6888 S Texas 6 Houston, TX 77083. Unfortunately, my attempts to communicate with the company have been unsuccessful, and as of February 9, 2024, I am still waiting to receive a response.

I have also had challenges in my interactions with Afterpay employees, who have yet to be responsive to my concerns and would like to provide complete information. The company's association with UOLOVA on its website is concerning, and I would like to ask them to take the necessary steps to take care of this. On May 16, 2023, I ordered a product from UOLOVA, but I am still waiting to receive the product due to UPS's failure to provide a shipping address.

Had I researched this business before making a purchase, I would have discovered numerous negative reviews of the product's quality. I am grateful that I canceled my order and did not receive their product, which could have resulted in a different outcome. I am entitled to a full refund of $244.00,

Scammer listed a bogus company on Instagram for Christmas items. Item never received and subsequently charges began being charged against the credit card used for the bogus purchase.

On 2/4/2023 I came across an ad on IG from a company called Fading Culture, advertising clippers that cut a fade haircut. I paid $59.99 and the product was never delivered. I followed up on 3/18/2023 asking for my money back and got no response. I followed up on 3/25/2023 again asking for a refund and Fading Culture responded telling me my order would be shipped asap and I'd be given a 10% refund. Neither happened. I followed up 4/18/2023, 6/13/2023, 6/21/2023, 8/4/2023 and got no response. Fading Culture took my money and did not deliver what I paid them for.
