Scammer advertised a truck available for rent on facebook. After signing contract truck has not been delivered, rerfund has not been paid. Scammer also changed his company name to 402truckingllc and looks to be working a similar scheme.

I purchased a portable monitor on 9/26/22 for around $50. I also paid for expedited shipment (from China). I received email updates and tracking information, which had to be translated but seemed legit enough. Got less believable when it took a month to get to me, but the item had been charged for right away. I received a package on 10/26 with a California label over a China shipping label. I opened it to find a silk scarf with decorative horses on it. When I went to check and see if I made an order mistake, the website was gone. I reached out to customer service and this was the response:

"Dear customer,

We are deeply sorry for this case. After we check over and over again, we are sorry to find that it is the shippers who mistook the batch of the products due to the hot sale reasons, so you have received the wrong item, we are really sorry and have a claim with the shippers. In order to make up for your loss, negotiate with our suppliers who promise that they could resend the right item to you, but to our regret, they ask for a return of the item you received. In this case, could you please go to your local post office to ask about the return cost? Our return address is: No. 167, san gan lan, Shangjie Community Neighborhood Committee, Shangjie Town, Minhou, Fuzhou, Fujian, China.

You can choose to get the full refund or ask us to resend the right item to you once the suppliers get the returned package, please offer a picture of the delivery paper and package when you return it or provide us the tracking information online (by screenshot or picture) if you return the package.

After you post the item back and provide information requested above, we will arrange a full refund right away.

In addition, could you please check whether the item is useful for you or not? If yes, how about you keep the order or send it to your friend who can use it please, we can offer you a 40% refund of your total payment immediately, which can save the hassle of returning the item to us. If you have any different ideas, please kindly tell us and do not take further action, please believe that we can help you to solve it in a short time.

Your patience will be highly appreciated, have a nice day.

Anna"

This is definitely a scam. I looked it up and it has been reported elsewhere. Shipping costs to send this back to "receive a full refund" is between $150-$200 according to USPS. Part of me knew it couldn't be true, but portable monitors are expensive and I was hoping this was for real. I reported this to my bank and disputed the claim. Hoping to get my money back.

I know this is probably a while ago but I have come to think of it because I didn’t know you could do a ScamPulse.com report online but this was in May of 2020 I had bought a few items from litsolar.com and to this day I never ever received the items I had ordered of the website it was about $200 for everything and I even sent multiple emails to the address and I was left with nothing no reply or anything I think it was horrible of them to not respond and rip me off

He tried scamming me by trying to e-transfer me and hold the funds.

Then he calls to pretend like he’s not a scammer. It’s been the same person with different number for last three times and I am scared. I feel stalked.

I saw the ad to buy a “giant 7’ tall pallet of either used or returned tools. You pay 79$ and it will be shipped from china. I tracked it and after it said it had arrived at my P.O. Box they told me nothing had come, but I. My box there was a 6”x8” box that read “mystery box”. In it was a very cheap iPhone screwdriver, a survival saw that you can pull back and forth until it cuts. And I didn’t order this. I also purchased 2 more giant pallets of electrical stuff. And I tracked it to my address and it said return to sender once it was supposed to have been here. Nobody came to my door I have ring and would know.

My son seen a sponsored ad on TicTok about this company. It said that the sold urban wear like joggers, jeans, hoodies. I purchased two hoodies for my son on June 21, 2022 for the amount of $35.85 for the upcoming school year. When we didn’t receive an purchase invoice that was the first red flag. A month went by with no update on when the package would ship, I attempted to reach out to the company to see what was going on but the website was saying unavailable on Google. As of today 9/08/2022 I have yet to receive my package or been successful with contacting the company.

When ordering an item of apparel, website says ships from USA and arrives in a few days. Actually ships from China in two months. Also guarantees to “make it right” if not satisfied with purchase. I received items that were too large to wear and wanted to return or exchange them. They refused a refund and told me it was too expensive to send back to China. They originally charged me a nominal shipping fee, but an exorbitant tax. Now I see that they hid the real shipping fee in the tax so one wouldnt know it does not ship from inside the US. Their sizing chart is very inaccurate, however, they claim that since I got the size I ordered they wont refund me. There are a myriad of misrepresentations on there website and facebook ads.

I ordered two sets of nails from Pressed by Simone during the month of August via Instagram (@pressedbysimone). We were in contact for about a week in which I sent her photos of the nails I wanted and the length. She took my payment of $120+ (which she asked me to send to her via Cash App-- $miraclenotsimone) on the 16th, told me that she would give me an update on the order on August 21st, 2022, and said she would ship it out on August 22nd, 2022. I sent multiple messages on Instagram about the order and she didn't respond but was posting on TikTok -- @miraclecapalot2.

This was a very disappointing experience.

Purchased Snowboard Bindings. Received email confirming purchase along with order number and link to Track Your Order. I received a follow-up email two days later about item being shipped but it included information with weblink in China. The link to Track Your Order does not work. Subikar website list an address in Arkansas but the telephone number 507-308-1808 is Minnesota area code and apparently not legitimate as it will not accept it above.

Search for Subikar Scams revealed a trust score of 1 out of 100.

Additional searches of Subikar revealed other customer examples of scams

WHOIS lookup shows company website was recently created in June 2022.

I ordered some parts for a lawn mower. I didn't know it was going to be shipped from CHINA. The sent me a tracking number and I tracked it until the package arrived. In the package was a mans belt! It was suppose to be Kit for Some Briggs and Stratton Camshaft 84005207 Includes 697110 Crankcase Gasket 795387 Oil Seal Made in The USA . They told me to keep the belt and they would resend the right order. My first order was made June 6, 2022. They sent me a tracking and website, when I told them that it says its out for delivery, then it says its waiting for the package, they sent me another tracking number and web. There it says it was delivered the 20th which it wasn't. I told them and they said they checked and it says It was lost so they will send me the order again. I told them no I needed the parts June 6th, I didn't know it was coming from china, just give me a refund. They repeated their message about sending the package again, I again told them to just send a refund so I can get the parts in the area. I asked them if I need to contact ScamPulse.com or the FBI, to just give me my refund and we will be good. They haven't responded to that. So now I am reporting it to ScamPulse.com and the FBI.

They advertise Air Jordan shoes and the shoes they send don’t even have any kind of label! They misprinted the shoes and then sent a size 3 when I ordered a size 11. Took over a week to get a response and they refuse to correct the problem saying it was my fault! Scammers! Do not buy from them

An email that said a product purchased from Amazon is on its way. The email gave me a tracking number. I checked the order because I did make an order from Amazon. It gives me a number to check my order. He kept asking me the last four of my Social and attempted to get my bank account information and preceded to ask for more information. I would not give any information that he should already have. So he hung up.

The scammer posted a free kayak in the craigslist free items section. They ask you to respond to the ad with your phone number. Then they say they are sending you a verification code to you and they need you to send it back. This means they are trying to get into some account of yours that had your phone number set up as an alternate way to get in when you have forgotten a password. The scammer posts a new ad with a new number from a different United States area code constantly.
