Via e-mail I was asked to take a survey. They said I could pick whatever product I wanted I just had to pay the shipping cost. I took the survey, picked the product I wanted and gave my CC information and address. 4 days later my CC was charged for the product. Upon investigation, unknown to me I actually signed up for a monthly subscription to buy more products from a variety of companies. I got scammed when I saw the email came from a reputable organization, Scammers are good at falsifying who they represent.

Cash Giraffe does not pay out as promised. On their app you play games & earn points. When you receive enough points you trade them out for cash on paypal or redeem coupons for Amazon or other businesses. They don't pay out. Also send you messages to collect but won't let you collect anything. Definitely fake app!

I purchased a powder nail product at the MN State Fair on Sept 1, 2023. The product was identified as Sistaco. When I opened the package at home, 1 of the 3 nail powders was completely empty and a 2nd was not the color I was supposedly sold. There were minimal instructions for use and no info on the company contained in the package. I found them online, made contact, and they informed me it is their belief another company named International Housewares, Inc. was selling counterfeit product under the name Sistaco. The owners of International Housewares is Thomas Palmisano and Cathy Palmisano. Sistaco is pursuing legal action against the company. They have agreed to replace my products, but I don't believe my credit card should be charged for an allegedly fraudulent company.

My husband went on Microsoft Bing platform which had a large clip what appeared to be Home Depot store closing. A big sell on all their tools because contract was up with companies which gave them the right to sell out of their warehouse at low cost. Big tool packages from $39.00 to $59.00. We inserted 3 packages that totalled approximately $159.00 no tax and free shipping. After entering my debit card info and personal contact info and pressed enter to purchase i noticed cart empty and waited for confirmation of purchase to find none sent. A prompting did appear for me to contact my bank and a link was noted kaspery.com.

i immediately contacted my bank to find they attempted to process the money several different ways from my account but was unsuccessful do to my banks protection. The Home Depot link was https://www.lifehomeusa.com not homedepot.com. It should have been a red flag for me. Fortunately the transaction was not successful but others might not be so lucky. Shame on you Microsoft Bing for not checking out your clients better and protecting your consumers!!!! My bank reported location of scammer: EU LEX Lexingburg, Europe.

I have reached the amount needed to cash out several times and the first time I tried to cash out it said it would take 5-6 days and it's been well over a week and no money. The other amounts are still counting down and have been for days as well. I emailed the maker of the app twice and have yet to hear back.

They claim to be a rewards app that makes you do surveys, give personal info, complete task, and invite friends to join to earn money. It then tells you once you complete a series of tasks (which aren’t easy) that you’ll get your payout in a month. Once that month comes, it extends it another week. Then another. And so on. I have yet to receive the money earned and everyone I have talked to said they have not either. It’s a scam and needs to be removed.

The scammer sent me an email claiming that they infected my device with a virus which allowed them to access my camera and microphone. They threatened to send videos of me to my friends if I did not pay them $1400 USD in Bitcoin within 48 hours. For various reasons, I suspected they were lying and I did not follow their instructions. I am reporting the email they sent because they shared a Bitcoin address with me which I suspect to be fraudulent.

Here is the Bitcoin address they sent me: 1EJJoUCykyZT3FtxRGSpuUsiBxCiHQ4wqX

I will also paste the contents of the email the scammer sent:

If you still doubt my serious intentions, it only takes couple mouse clicks to share the video of you with your friends, relatives, all email contacts and on social networks.

All you need is $1400 USD in Bitcoin (BTC) transfer to my account (Bitcoin equivalent based on exchange rate during your transfer).

After the transaction is successful, I will proceed to delete everything without delay.

Afterwards, we can pretend that we have never met before.

In addition, I assure you that all the harmful software will be deleted from your device.

Be sure, I keep my promises!
