They wanted to talk via text/send me a google code. I smelled rat told them ‘no this is weird’ and reported the account to Meta. When I went back to get the phone number they gave me the message was listed as unavailable. This is not a lot to go on , maybe Meta can retrieve/give /trace more info

When we did the self checkout, I reminded my son to pay attention of what the price was going to show up. So, that was the first item he scanned. For a 11-12oz bag of white chocolate chips, it showed $2.62. No, it was not $1 as it claimed on the big price tag at the top of the shelf.
So, we asked for help from the staff on duty. She said, “It is only for the bigger bag.” I asked, “You mean the bag which is double of this size?” She said, “Yes, that is the only size our manager authorized.”
Then, I went back to this same shelf and grab a different bag which was 24oz, bigger than the bag we grabbed earlier. I went back to the self checkout again. This time, the same lady scanned it. It showed $4+. She went in manually to overwrite the price and changed it to $1.
I challenged her immediately, “The chocolate chips didn’t occupy a small part of the shelf. It’s a huge shelf from top to bottom of the same product and showed $1. How can you ?do it in this way?” Her answer was, “I can’t answer you.”
After completing our checkout, I purposefully went back into the store to take this video. We often went to Walmart in the past that the price on the shelf didn’t match up the price at the time of checkout. But at this scale, I truly believe that it was done on purpose. Pay attention to the shelf. The only price tag on that shelf was $1 and both signs are HUGE.
How many people just like me saw the great price and grabbed a bag; then he/she forgets to check the price at the checkout?
This is the way how Walmart scammed people to increase their sales. I honestly think that mistakes happen. We are all human. But based on our previous shopping experiences in Walmart, I truly believe that this is done on purpose. Amsterdam NY may be a small town. But $1+ from each customer doing the same thing I did and never challenged the price. It can easily bring in a few tens of thousands of dollars extra to Walmart by cheating.
Please see the video I took right after the checkout where from this same shelf I grabbed both small and bigger bags of chocolate chips from. (I took this video in Walmart at Amsterdam NY on Jan 15, 2023 (Sun) 1:20pm.)

crypto recovery
Fortunately I met someone who had also been scammed and he referred me to an investigating firm on:bit.ly/3i3bep7 that helped in tracking and recovery of lost crypto funds, eventually they traced the IP of those scammers and used a back end to access their account and recovered all my lost crypto funds.
In case anyone has also been scammed once again here is the link to fill their complaint form on: bit.ly/3i3bep7 .I hope this awareness gets to whoever has been scammed before to help recover their lost funds.
