I went to purchase items at this 7-11. I used my ebt card to pay for eligible items then paid with my debit card for the remaining item plus got cash $10 back. The cashier charged my ebt card twice for 14.27 then Proceeded to charge my debit card for $27.42. When I got to my car to check my accounts I noticed I was charged 3 times so I went inside to clear it up. The cashier immediately told me I can cancel the transaction but I wanted it fixed by him since it was his mistake. He called another man over who did not help me after I explained the situation. He went and got another woman to assist and she only told me that there is no proof because the receipts are erased after 2 minutes. I showed her the transactions but she would not acknowledge the mistakes. I should’ve been charged once for $14.27 on my ebt card and only $13.15 on my debit card.

I received an email concerning a free ShakeMate Personal Blender from DailyGoodieBox, but I have seen other bloggers, etc promoting this offer. The offer was for a free blender for shipping charges. When I clicked on the link provided in the email I was taken to this link -https://www.affluenttechsolutions.com/v/3/184?affid=12234&provider=Affiliat...⇄ I was very careful as I went through the process of checking out that I did not accept anything other than the blender. I was relieved when the only charge was $5.80! The charge came through from "Delightful Art Essentials". However a few days later as I was working on my budget I found another charge from them for $89.85! I went to their website and found a website with a few art supplies available for purchase (https://delightfulartessentials.com/). It was evening so I couldn't talk to anyone at the number provided(1-(833) 289-8870). I then reclicked the original link and found the contact us link and tried that phone number ((866) 979-9572) it was the same message and person speaking! Back on the offer website I noticed a link "Terms and Conditions" above the Contact Us link (I tried to send a screenshot of that portion of the website to show the size and prominence of this link, however it didn't seem to load - these links at the bottom of the website are very small!) Within the terms and conditions I found that if I used the website I was signing up for a subscription to Exclusive Gadgets Warehouse Direct for $89.85/month however I would receive a $199 voucher for use on the website , which I did receive in my email, but honestly thought it was just a scam so I didn't open it when I received it! And that I would also be signing up for a 3-day trial of Elite Force Fit App which, if not cancelled, would be a charge of $82.45/month! The next day I was able to speak to someone at the support number and they say they cancelled all subscriptions, but that there was nothing to do about the charges (which are a lot for me in today's economy). They told me I could use the voucher and it seems that I can, however the products on exclusivegadetswarehousedirect.com are overpriced and the shipping is $10/item that is not covered by the voucher = more $$! I would really like others to be warned about this!

The advertisement was for CBD gummies endorsed by Dr. Phil and Dr. Oz. 3 bottles for 39 each and 2 free. My card was hit with 2 charges, one for $199 and one for $50. I am working with my credit card company to dispute and try to get this back. I reached out to the company the next day, asked for the order to be cancelled and refunded and was told once I received the product I could return it and call for a refund.

I've also read on Dr. Phil's website he has never endorsed this or any other CBD company. They are fake!

A bogus online company took a picture that I had on Pinterest of antique earrings and put the picture on their site to offer the earrings for sale. Seeing that these are unique and rare earrings it is causing me great concern because I am currently selling these earrings myself on ebay. This is very distressing. I was searching to see if my earrings that were up for sale would come up on a Google search when I found that this made up company listed the same earrings for sale.

I had been looking for estimates for a complete new roof. As of right now only 1 company has come out to look at it and give me an actual estimate. I have however contacted about a half dozen others about estimates. The contractor I had spoken to was going on vacation so he was pretty good about me taking my time to decide. Today (about a week later) a subcontractor shows up and starts dropping materials and a dumpster at my house, fully ready to do a tear off and replace my roof. I have signed no contract with anyone for the work. They would not identify who they worked for and I was only able to see a delivery ticket for a brief second to confirm my address with the materials and what appears to be the company I that had given me the estimate. I finally had to threaten them with calling the cops to get them to stop trying to drop off more materials and to pick up the ones already dropped off on my driveway. I contacted the company I got the estimate from and they are adamant, after confirming with their normal delivery channels and subs, that it was not them who were dropping off materials.

Dropping off and potentially starting the work without having a contract, essentially forcing me to pay or getting locked into some legal battle. The whole interaction felt off.

I have many items for sale on Facebook marketplace and every time they ask me for my phone number and I of course do not give it. But I wanted to tell you the other things they do to help your readers be able to red flag the potential buyers. As I said above they ask for a phone nunber and I refuse but they also say that their son will be the one to pick the item up because they are out of town, one guy told me he had just had shoulder surgery and he was inquiring about a framed print I am selling. (how heavy could that be) ?? They also ask me what town I live in and admittedly I have told them the area not thinking that was a big deal,but I'm sure it helps them narrow down the search on people finders. I once had someone fool me almost well enough that I almost lost my $1200 camera. I even went to the post office and paid 107.00 to ship the item thinking the "payment" they sent was legit. The made up a very good copy of a paypal receipt and sent me a link to tell them I had sent the item. So after I packaged and mailed the camera, in the parking lot of the post office I proceed to send the info to the link and the link was just an email address disguised as a link to usps tracking. I ran back into the post office and exclaimed the guy is fake, the guy is fake! I showed the employees the evidence and they thankfully gave me back my $107.00 and of course my camera. I had also gift wrapped the darn thing, so I did lose the $2.12 I paid for the wrapping paper! I thought I had correctly received the "payment" from paypal but since the buyer had asked me to send him a request or an invoice for the sale it was pending on paypals end. Oh, he also said the payment would take a few hours to hit my account and that was hours after I had texted and said it was mailed. It wasn't till later that I gave him the how to and what for about his disgusting acts and he didn't even act like he knew who I was. I believe they work in shifts and at that point someone else was manning the scam and he didn't know who I was at all. I did report this incident to the internet crimes division and never heard anything from them. I hope this helps your readers. So DO NOT GIVE YOUR PHONE NUMBER.

DO NOT GIVE YOUR GENERAL LOCATION.

DO NOT GIVE YOUR ADDRESS.

DO NOT AGREE TO MEET OTHER PARTIES ON THE BUYERS BEHALF.

VERIFY PAYMENT THROUGH YOUR BANK. You'll know when they are legit. If any part of it makes you suspicious go with your gut. I have included the emails and all the info about the paypal scam. The Facebook ones I also mentioned are new. I don't know if all of the documents will show. I can send the rest to you. Please let me know.

This is a general complaint. I am frequently targeted by companies claiming my extended auto warranty is either expired or rates increasing. The letters and phone calls relay urgency and are misleading, to confuse you. These are from several different companies and they use tactics that are targeting elderly or misinformed people. This type of sales ploy should be illegal.

I was scammed at this food truck. They didn't tell me the price until after they scanned my card. I bought a gyro that should have been $7 which later I saw they charged my card $65. Also, after you pay they refuse to give you a receipt. I searched the food truck online and multiple other customer have said they have been scammed. They target tourists and charge their cards way more than what the customers sign off for. The food truck has no way of contacting them. They have no phone number to call.

My 76 year old mother was walking through DEERBROOK mall in Humble and was approached by a lady selling skin care products at Gold Elements. They took her into their store front and pressured her for an hour and 15 minutes and she continually told them she was not interested in spending so much money. They pressured her until she gave them 3 different cards to purchase some skincare products. The total came out to almost $8000.00. Being as old as she is, and the fact that she just got out of the hospital with a heart monitor on...she caved so she could leave.

Once she came home upset and told me, I told her not to open anything and we would return them. Once I looked at the receipt, it says she cannot return. Once i did some research on this company, I learned that this is what they do. Prey on the elderly. Numerous claims online about this company. It runs under different names in many countries. I have filed a police report and the officer said this isnt the first that this had happened at this location. BEWARE!!!!!!

Good Morning, This is Jerry Patrick the hiring manager for the mystery shopper in your area. In a text message I sent you yesterday, I mentioned that you would be receiving the payment and the instruction letter together for the mystery shopper assignment. But I regret to inform you that our secretary who mailed the payment to you made a significant error by including our old numbers in the instruction letter you received with the check yesterday, which is (973-264-9940 and 320-348-0725). If you text those numbers to notify us of the payment you received yesterday, You won't receive a response from those old numbers.This is the right number to send a notification 279-867-7819 of the payment you received yesterday . Kindly confirm that you receive the package yesterday by texting this number 279-867-7819 with; Your Full Name, Amount Received, and time to complete your Task. to confirm receipt of this message.

Received 2 separate pieces of USPS priority mail from the person/business I named around May 24. Each package contained only the flimsy PPE masks typically provided at public places (even though research shows now that they don’t really protect the wearer.) The packages contained no paper inside. Less than a week after those original mailings, I had three purchases under 2$ each charged to my checking account. I don’t know that they’re connected but mention the information in case they are. The charges were from “Meta Pay” (as in Facebook I guess.)

On May 8, 2023 my checking account at JP Morgan Chase was hacked & $4460 was unlawfully taken out of my account. I have had this account for exactly 31 years & nothing like this has ever happened before. The vendor that removed the money was Netspend & removed everything in my account in increments of $500, $500, $500, $500, $475, $490, $498, $498 & $499. The Chase Claims Dept. refuses to credit my account saying that the fraudster had my debit card number & pin. These are not my charges & I am requesting restitution of the stolen money for which I worked. Thank you.
