I was looking for reloading components, specifically primers as the are hard to find. I found their website and ordered 3000 primers at the cost of $205. They said they had them in stock. They had me pay with Zelle. When they were wanting their money, they replied right away to me. Since ordering I have not heard from them. Their website said they would ship within 3-4 business days. It’s been 3 weeks and they will not reply to me or answer phone calls. I have left text messages, voice mails and emails daily and no response.

An ad is running on Facebook under my brand name as sponsored. It’s for the sale of an RV for $21k.

My credit card has been charged by Facebook. American Express flagged it and declined one charge but one went through. 2 charges $250 each. Facebook has no live support and I’ve been trying for days to report the ad. FB is only concerned about collecting money not the fraud. I’ve reported to the FTC. I don’t know how to get them to fix it. Attached is the ad.

They are selling merchandise that they never ship. They charge you for the product and never ship the product.

If you check the status it says "not shipped". Email and phone numbers don't work. No response. Physical address is fake also.

When I searched for an item, their website was about $30 cheaper than all the others. That should have been the red flag!

While on Facebook, an ad came up for Bulky Bean Bag. It looked awesome and I thought it looks comfy and relaxing. I ordered 2 of the large ones. When paying, I thought it was odd that the advertisement said that you can pay by Paypal, but unable to locate it when doing the check out. I even emailed the company asking where I could find it. There was no reply. A while later the ad came up again and I decided to order it using my credit card. I waited and waited. Nothing. I started wondering if I was scammed. I tried emailing numerous times with no reply. I am currently working with my credit card company on this issue.

Don't get scammed. I should have known something was up when I wasn't able to use Paypal.

Confirmation from the US Open itself that there were not tickets sold for this event. I and 100s of others went to the US Open that day where 4 doubles matches (2 Men's, 1 Women's, 1 Mixed) were played in the Armstrong Stadium -- in addition to Wheelchair and Junior matches, all for free admission.

Ask for $1.99 for "free product". Then charge card $90 for a subscription not told about or asked for.

I booked this stylist Purple MIsst on Styleseat on 9/10/22 at 10am- went to address listed which was 1207 Waughtown St Winston Salem, NC- it was a barbershop- man inside asked how could he help me, I told him that I was there to get my hair done- and he said that there was no one else there- showed him my confirmation from styleseat and he said that he'd never heard of this person! I canceled the appointment- then there was no contact number listed for her , so messaged her on styleseat and received no reply- I then received a message the next day from this stylist - claiming that she has moved from that location and that she never received any notifications on styleseat- and that she never received any money from me! She asked me to contact Styleseat and let them know that she's not a fraud and said that she would change her address on the website to reflect new location- she then said that due to her "messing up " if I wanted to book with her again that she would take 50% off services!

This does not appear to be a legitimate company. Our debit card was used to make a purchase by some unknown person. The phone number goes straight to a busy signal and the "support" email comes back undeliverable. Our bank denied the fraudulent charge claim after investigating, stating we did order and receive whatever it was. I am unable to reach them to request a receipt or invoice. I requested the evidence they used to make this decision. When I received the documents, the email and phone number used to order and confirm the order was redacted. Still working with Chase bank to retrieve this information.

I found this breeder on line and they looked reputable and it was late at night so I did not click link to call, there was an option. The breeder reached out to me the next day , via email and told me that he would be conducting business by email and or text as he was hard of hearing. I thought it could be true , people have that problem. I put down the $950.00 that he was asking (700 for the pup + $250 for transportation. He said he needed the $ to confirm and hold the dog. He sent me a contract (and the money did not go through right away) he wanted through Zelle, Google, Apple pay. I never done this before , but I thought he was a small business owner so that's how he did it. I sent to him, called my bank the released funds to him and then he started the process of when to ship the pup. That's when he sent the contract from the shipping agent and it stated I had to send $1,725.00 for insurance on the puppy during transport and I would get it back when I received the dog. I was advised by the bank to not send any more $$$. He also wanted the $$$ same payment method. I confronted him and requested my money back and he said "calm down, this is not a scam" "you will get your money back when you pick up the dog at the airport" . I then told him I wanted a refund because no where in any paper work did it say anything about this insurance money. He has ghosted me and no more contact. I have filed a police report, and a claim with my bank.

The on-line retail sales company "PlasticFanatics" located at 554 Mission Road, Winston Salem, NC is a "scam". I purchased a CD, and received an empty case!

Attempting to order alcohol from the business. Noticed the calculation for the items to be purchased did not match the purchase price. And when attempting to purchase a message came up about PayPal and would need to mark it as a donation. Thought I better check it out more and could not find any information on them. Tried to connect through phone number and could not.

I heard about a PS2 handheld from some youtube videos (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o93mMR5emDE)(https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lk...⇄ Both of those videos point to an online retailer known as phoenix retro mods. I went through the Etsy store page linked in one of the videos(https://www.etsy.com/shop/PhoenixRetroMods). It's a store run supposedly by someone named Matt Willis. He responded to my questions in a reasonable time on Etsy. Considering the people vouching for him, I didn't think it was a scam. I saw videos of a finished product, and people claiming this is where to buy it. His etsy page claimed it wouldn't be much more than 4-5 months probably. It's been more than 9 months since I made my purchase, and he won't respond to emails or any attempt to contact him through his Etsy store. I've been totally ghosted. I have no indication that I will ever get what I ordered. It seems like he just takes people's money tells them it will take longer than the period allowed to dispute the charges, and then he pockets the money. According to what he told me, I was around like the 40th or 50th person to make an order, so he probably has scammed people for more than $30,000.

Terri Lane is the Admin of a Facebook group, Blue-nose pit-bulls for adoption. She posts pictures and videos of adorable puppies "ready now" for shipping and delivery. She has several fake accounts that post in her group about their satisfaction working with her and making recommendations. None of those fake profiles match with the user or have any common info that real people have (friends, info, photos). It does not matter where you live, she will agree to drive and meet you. She will refuse to give you her phone number or facetime with you and state that she will only talk on Facebook messenger. She will give her "home address", which is just an address she found online. She will guilt you into feeling bad for doubting her if you ask her to verify she's legit. She requires a deposit sent over online pay system live Zelle or Venmo, then after you send her money, she will block you from the group, her profile, and messenger so you have no way to contact her. There is no puppy, her name is not terri lane, her address is false, and the photos she uses are stolen.

On August 25, 2022, noticed an advertisement for Semibras through an online Social Media website. Click on the website and viewed photos and descriptions of bras and the 100% satisfaction backed by the company. I ordered two bras for $50.44 (didn't receive an email notification of the invoice) and received the package on September 2, 2022 without any paperwork.

I checked my credit card and confirmed the purchase but again, there was no transaction number or Order number associated with the charge. I looked up contact information online and found their [email protected].

The products are nothing like the photos. They are flimsy stretch fabric with very scratchy seams at the shoulders and front closure. The Fit is also very unflattering, smashing the breasts into a very small space. Again, this is not the photo that is shown on the website.

I contacted Support @Semibras.com about the poor fit, and extremely poor quality with a request to return the bras and that I had no paperwork, invoice or email concerning the purchase. I sent a screenshot of the creditcard charge. The next day, I received a response from "Scarlet" at semibras stating to provide a screenshot of the charge and the Invoice. Again, I responded there was no information provided with the order and to the see the credit card charge. I provided my address and email address. Next day, another response from "Scarlet" stating they can't find my order; requesting I send a transaction number. Again, I respond that I don't have any information and why can't they find my order from August 25th. Next day, "Scarlet" says I only have 15 days to return. I, again, respond with why can't you find my order. Next day,"Scarlet" provides the Return Policy for Semibras and that there is only replacements for poor workmanship, not returns for a refund.

This company is a scam. They sell cheap products, delay the "return" until after 15 days has expired and then keep your money.

I am a victim of a scammer selling boxer puppies. The person sent me picture of the two puppies I was interested in, I picked the one I wanted. They asked for a deposit. I contacted my financial institution for verification and they were verified so I sent half of the money. We set up a date for pick up which was only 1.5 hour drive from my house. When the money was paid in full we confirmed the date and time but a day before the pick up they backed out due to a family emergency. They then said they would deliver the dog to me, I declined and said I would come pick up the dog that day, I was informed that she no longer had the dog and her cousin who worked for a delivery agency was in possession of my puppy and they would contact me. The agency contacted me and wanted 150.00 extra dollars on top of what I already paid. I said "No". Then he preceeded to threaten me with a lawsuit of pet abandonment. I am out 600.00 and a puupy too. Please do your homework before agreeing with anything. Physically go see the breeder and puppy you want. I am probably out the money but I am trying to warn others of this situation so they dont make the same mistake I did.

I lost $103.35 from ordering a shed from these people. Do NOT ORDER FROM THEM! THEY ARE THIEVES! AFTER over a month, I still do not have my shed, and they would not reply to my emails, and had no phone number for customer service! They even went so far as to block my emails!
