On March 25, 2023, I contacted the number from the commercial for Life Lock which was a security company to ensure that your personal information will remain safe and if not your account will be insured for an approximate $1,000,000.00

I contacted the number (800-818-7738) directly from the currently airing commercial and found out that it was a ruse that redirected my call to Medical Alert regardless of the option that was chosen on the keypad of my phone. Once I connected, I commented that I was calling Life Lock and not Life Alert. Once questioned/confronted the person hung up on me. I called a second time and asked if this was a bait and switch and was hung up on again. I called again but my number had been blocked so I called from another number and asked for a supervisor. A person who claimed to be a supervisor did not care or show any concern for my complaint and was very rude.

The impetus for my call to a company that I thought was reputable was to help to secure my future with regard to my credit and personal holdings such as my property etc.

Below is what I found out online.

What is the LifeLock controversy?

LifeLock was fined $12 million by the Federal Trade Commission in March 2010 for deceptive advertising. The FTC called the company's prior marketing claims misleading to consumers by claiming to be a 100% guarantee against all forms of identity theft.

I called Life Lock from a different5 phone number and got the same bait and switch response which was automated and would not respond to anything being said.

I do not understand how a company who touts itself in saving others from fraud is committing fraud itself. Norton, now the owner of Life Lock has been long trusted to protect consumers against fraud and hacking. Whom can we trust if not one of

the the most trusted name in internet security. What is actually being done to hold these multi-billionaires accountable for defrauding the public in the name of fear from the outside world who may be attempting to sell your personal information for profit?

Who are we to trust in order that we might secure our future holdings with our sensitive information regarding credit, bank accounts and other information that all of us value.

As a 69 year old female, the grieves me to know that there are so many trusted sources who seek to destroy and defraud the frail public such as myself. I pray that something is done of a significant order that will cause a definite cease and desist.

As an aside, I called today from a different number because the original number was blocked and Life Lock is doing the same bait and switch game.

Had placed item on facebook marketplace for sale. Received call shortly after posting. Caller (identified as Lisa) said she was interested in item. Said she was working and could not pick up but would check with her husband to see if he could pick up. Then said that she would send me a 6 digit google voice verification code that I should enter to confirm that my posting was not phony. Entered the code but later found out that this is some sort of scam.

Bought from an ad on Facebook from the business Onyoa. Before purchase I checked the return policy, they claimed purchases could be returned. Also claimed it was shipped from the US. The order took 3 weeks to arrive. The items were poor quality, nothing like the pictures. I contacted them for the return authorization, they offered me 25 dollars. I declined and asked again for the return authorization, the offered me 31 dollars. I reached out a 3rd time for the return auth and now have no response. They have deleted me comments on Facebook.

My mother, Melody Crider, has been the victim of an online scam involving someone claiming to represent McAfee. She sent almost $4000 in gift cards to an individual per his request. When family members became aware of the situation, we have taken necessary steps to secure her accounts, but noticed that someone had remotely accessed her computer.

There were documents sent to her computer regarding an LLC established with her information without her consent.

Although I was not personally targeted nor was someone I know targeted, I figured it would be the right thing to do and report the fake company. They offer various positions, mainly having to do with game testing on mobile devices. Other fake companies that offer the same scam are SocialPays and Write App Reviews. The links to each of these listings are shows below.

I ordered a adult novelty. The item that I received was defective and so I complained to the seller. They agreed to replace it. The replacement that I received was also defective. I contacted the seller again as I stated I did not want another replacement and they agreed to refund the amount. Now they won't answer my e-mails and will not respond.

While shopping at Vons Market, on Fridays ( Senior Sale days) they advertise sale items. However, while using the Vons App, and at Checkout, all Items on sale, ring up at inflated regular price. Upon going back to the Manager, they give cash back only for the issue, but not the tax. They pocket the tax and give cash back only for their pricing scam. ( And only if you realize the mistake and go back to store and complain. This is a daily occurrence and targets seniors in the area- Leasure Village. Thank you for your help.

They want to give me a grant of 95,000 but I have to give them 2000 first. They are known as FGHS Grant.

Just want to know if they are legit.

Received a phone message saying that I had won $2.5M and a Lincoln Navigator and gave a number to call in Colorado to receive my prizes. Was told that since the amount was over $250,000, I would have to pay a $499 registration fee and sent me to several businesses to buy a $500 money order before releasing my prizes. Did receive an email from something called Manufacturers Global Promotion and the guy on the phone told me PCH reps were on their way here with the goodies but they are stuck in some terrible weather we're having today. My inner voice thinks it's a scam to get my $500 but part of me is hoping it's not. Any ideas, experience, or knowledge will be greatly appreciated.

Basically, a person on fb representing this company reached out to me wanting to “send” me a “free” wig to review. Upon further conversation she said I’d have to purchase the wig off of Amazon then she’d refund me through PayPal. This is a common scam used to entice people into giving brands 5 star Amazon reviews without alerting Amazon’s review vetting system by only allowing “verified purchasers” to review. She might’ve actually given me the refund but it would be an inauthentic review and thus breaking Amazon’s review system and possibly encouraging people to purchase a bad quality product. I was interested thinking it was a brand ambassador position until I realized what sort of scam it was.

I ordered 3 items from this site back in January and paid $25.44. I have sent numerous emails to them and have not received any response at all.

The only thing the initial email says is that "It will be shipped ASAP"

They posted a link on YouTube to watch a baseball game. The trial was $1 dollar but it didn't work. They charge you money after a 1 day trial period. The link doesn't work so we can't cancel subscription and you get charged whatever amount of money they want.

Scammer approached me in a parking lot claiming he could fix my car for $600. Once he was halfway done the work, he came and told me instead of $600 it will now be $1100. Scammer was in a red Ford Pickup truck with a yellow California Plate.

Received a phone call asking if I got a card in the mail saying I won something. I said no and they told me I won 1 million dollars. They claimed they needed more info and would get back to me. I know they're going to call back and ask for money but I wanted to report it.
