I entered a free prize draw on Instagram on March 5th 2023 for a 'mystery box' of climbing equipment. On April 11th the account messaged me saying I had won and provided a discount code worth the full amount of the box, but during checkout paid $23.99 in shipping. When it turned up it was a small envelope containing some stickers and a cheap bandana made in China, worth far less than the shipping I paid. Many others have reported this scam on trustpilot and Reddit referring to different domain names that always redirect to the same website I used. All reported receiving exactly the same goods despite there being a number of higher value items advertised. That instagram account has now been shut down, however I have found many similar accounts, all with ~160k followers (presumably fake) using the same images and linking to the same website. Using details acquired from the card payment and a domain name search I traced these back to the Washington registered company SIMON LEADERSHIP INTERNATIONAL LLC, which is also mentioned as the contact on the website. The payment however, went to OUTDOOR GOODS INTERNATIONAL LLC, which is registered in Puerto Rico (presumably to evade tax). The company director is Simon Hoisington. His social media profiles indicate that he lives between Port Orchard Washington, Hawai'i and Puerto Rico. The Puerto Rican company's registered address is the office of a Puerto Rican tax company and there is a Co-working space company listed as a controlling agent and the postal address is his family home in Washington. This supports the possibility of tax evasion, which I will be reporting to the IRS. Simon's father Steven Hoisington is the registered email contact on the Washington company and posted pictures on Facebook of he and Simon in Puerto Rico around the time the company was founded with the caption "trip to Puerto Rico this week to help Simon with expanding his business", suggesting that Steven helped simon to set up this structure. This wouldn't surprise me as Steven is a senior member of a multi-level-marketing (alledgedly pyramid) scheme. In a YouTube video promoting the scheme he says "I've taught this to my kids. My son runs a 6 figure income himself and he just turned 18. Outside of LegalShield, he does it through ." This supports his involvment and suggests that this scam may well be a lucrative one.

What seems to be a group of scammers run multiple social media pages with large followings that host giveaways for ski and snowboard gear packages. After a while they send out messages to participants telling them they won. They send a link to a website and give you a promo code to get the “Prize” for free and you have to pay $23.99 for shipping costs. Then you receive nothing in the mail and they try to get around refunds by saying giveaway items are not eligible for refund or cancellation.

The instagram brand @theskiing fronts The International Shop. They do giveaways in their instagram all the time. I was offered a discount code for a $125 mystery box for free, and was told to post it if I liked it. I paid $25 for shipping and received maybe $3 worth of items. It was a total scam and if you look at their instagram comments I’m not the only one.

The have not responded to any of my further messages about it and deleted all of my comments on their public posts about being scammers

The instagram account currently called: Mtnbike_world who’s website is listed as mtnbikenation.com which is redirected to broadoutdoors.com is scamming people on Instagram. I have reported their account via Instagram. But I think the ScamPulse.com needs to know that this company is pretending people win contests and the prize is $100 backpack and then they charge you $20 for shipping. But when you Google the exact same object the product/brand is $11 on ******. And when you tell them that, they block your account. So they’re making hundreds/thousands of dollars on people every week by scamming them for over shipping on a product that is worth $11.
