I thought I was ordering CBD from the real cookies company but it turns out if was a fake copy site.

They texted me to say their payment system was down and we needed to use CashApp.

I sent $207 initially and then was told I needed to pay another $153 for insurance which would be refunded as soon as delivery was made.

I paid the $153 but was then told nmI needed to pay another $250 for a license fee at this point I was certain I was scammed. Of course, the product never came and both CashApp and my bank Huntington refused to refund me the money since I made the transactions through CashApp linked to my debit card.

I saw an ad on Facebook for a model of the Back to the Future DeLorean time machine. I purchased it as a Christmas gift. When the item did not arrive in a few days, and I received no notification about shipping, I checked the original receipt I was emailed. At the bottom, was an email address for customer support, should I have questions about the order. I sent an email to that address, inquiring about shipping status on my order. The email bounced back with the message that the email address was not a valid address. I researched Norskla online and saw there are multiple complaints about it being a fraudulent company.

I purchased what I thought were clearances out/becoming discontinued dresses from a site that looked like the real one. I checked the contact page and reviews and further details prior to purchasing

I entered my debit card number, name, address, email

I have submitted a dispute with my bank with screenshots of how the website has changed to another "company name" with different products

I did not lose as much money as others, there has been more and more complaints posted about this person business. This is a clothing brand, this person has sales and post for people to buy on their site but never fulfill the orders. I ordered back in 2021 sent multiple emails, texted the number that was once available and also sent a direct message to the business social media, the Instagram is @Chasersonlyapparel. I wasn’t too worried because it was only $21 but imagine how many other people have been scammed as well, I just want to stop this person from being able to scam anyone else ! The company also used another email that was [email protected].

This website sells many clothing items for men and women. Website looks very official, prices are probably too good to be true. I never received an order confirmation/shipping information, but money was immediately taken from PayPal. Repeated attempts to email the seller and the company email have resulted in no response.

I was looking for microdosing mushrooms to help treat TBI. I came over the site and contacted them with questions first, they assured me every thing was legit after going back and forth. After paying them and two days later, I received an email about the order being "held" at a warehouse and I needed to pay an additional $800, which I DID NOT. They ignored every message for a while until I waited like 6 months to randomly text them from another number and received a response. It wasn't relevant to anything, I just wanted to see if the message would be answered and it was.

The scammer promised me the sale of car rims on Facebook and said they would accept the payment through cash app. The person asked for 400 first but said an extra 300 would be needed for “product insurance and shipping costs” I then sent the extra 300 but why demanded an extra 200 and refused to return the money. I contacted the shipping company only to find out it was an Indian man and that it was a set up and when I confronted the one who promised me the sales of the wheels he blocked me.

On December 8th I tried to purchase a turkey choke that was IN STOCK. I made the purchase with my visa card. The available balance is in the THOUSANDS of dollars. On December 11th I received an email stating that my order had been canceled for "unforeseen circumstances." This was very strange to me. I had never seen this before. So I called them. No answer. So I contacted them on Monday. and asked what was going on with my order. I was told my card was not charged. But it was fraudulent. he said he sent me a text. But I never gave them my phone number. I could not have been contacted after the purchase as they did not respond to my inquiry about shipping time. After a brief wait for there reply. I closed my browser. My thoughts are this entity is phishing for credit card numbers utilizing a website with no intention on fulfilling any orders. I have emails, chat messages. everything. I have canceled the card as well. Just to safeguard myself from any loss.

The website is very realistic. After I made the payment, they sent me an email with a password to use to get my downloadable pdf. When I clicked on download it says it cannot be downloaded securely. When I tried to contact them by phone the call went to a recorded message that was not the correct company. Then I sent an email to them, and it came back

I called my bank and could not stop payment because is was already pending. They were able to submit a fraud for me and returned my money temporarily until they do a full investigation. Then after that it will be resolved. What I am most afraid of is that they have my personal information. Nothing is safe anymore.

I called the company about the product ordered and Mary was rude, cut me off and hung up on me when I requested a refund. I had asked for a supervisor and they are not here. She kept saying I have a time limit and hung up.

From what I have discovered this is a fraudulent company. The confirmation # was bogus.

I ordered 2 self defense walking sticks. When I placed the order the page said items to be delivered some time this week. I never received a confirmation number for the order. I emailed the company at [email protected] and my message came back undeliverable. I went to the website to look at the other items they allegedly sale. It was full of all kinds of household items, not having anything to do with tactical gear. I called the phone number that is listed 901.552.2862 and a man answered not stating a company name or his name as one would if you are answering a business phone. I said I am looking for a business. He said let me guess USA TACTICAL. He said it is a scam. I have turned them into Facebook as scam and my bank.

I contacted them at the email provided on their website. They responded with a size chart and request for pictures. I sent them pictures, and they responded with questions about the size of the shirt. Then, after several more emails back and forth, they asked for more pictures but no specifications for what they wanted. I sent them the same ones I had sent before and requested that they explain what more pictures they needed. They are now ignoring me and I am getting no response from them.

Ordered an Agri-Fab Tow Behind Broadcast Spreader.

The amount listed on the website was $47.43.

The only option to buy the Spreader was by using PayPal.

I ordered the Spreader using PayPal with my ******** ******* ****.

I then get a notice from PayPal about the $47.43 charge, but at the bottom of the notice was that there would be an automatic payment of $383.99 for each day for 9 days.

I only ordered the Spreader and did not order any workout plans. At this point it is obvious that this is a scam.

I notified PayPal about the scam and to cancel the order, but they replied that I would have contact the seller to cancel the order.

At 12:24 pm, I contacted the seller per the email address provided by PayPal, which is [email protected].

See below for copy of email:

Cancel below order immediately

I will be disputing the charge with my credit card company.

End of email

At 1:03 pm I was able to cancel the automatic recurring charge through the PayPal site.

November 9, 2023 thru November 13, 2023

I haven’t heard back from PayPal or the seller (Germany Haida)

I also try to lookup the seller and nothing comes up with that exact name.

November 14, 2023 at 1:49 am

I received a notice from PayPal that the delivery from German Haida was completed and would I confirm receipt.

I denied receipt and opened another dispute with PayPal.

PayPal provided the USPS tracking #9400108205499468394434.

I went to the Post Office to pickup the item.

The clerk said there was nothing for me. She asked for the tracking # so she could investigate it. She later called me on my cell phone and stated that the tracking # given was for a DVD that was delivered to a different Post Office Box for the Library in Marfa, TX.

I contacted PayPal again and they messaged me that they would look into it.

On May 16, 2023, we placed an order for cabinet doors with Cabinet Door World in the amount of $1,007.38. When we would email or call them they would email us with statements such as "it looks like we should be able to ship this order out by the end of the week" "we should be able to get this shipped out to you within the next 7-10 business days" and many more. We have left a least 7 messages on their voice mail.....no returned calls from them. It is now November 7, 2023.....6 months from the date of our order......we have obviously been scammed.

On December 19, 2022 a Prius lift kit was purchased from priusoverlanding.com via Affirm monthly payments. Owner has ignored phone calls and attempts of contact and we have not yet received our item. Talking to others, he has done this multiple times. He gives you an order number and try’s to give you updates saying things are back ordered or they are busy but then will disappear with zero contact.

She seemed REALLY friendly offering weight loss medication at a discounted price!

We corresponded via Whatsapp. I told her what medication I wanted and she gave me the price. I paid via PayPal at first. But PayPal withheld payment

So she sent it back. And said we could arrange different payment type. We settled on Cashapp. I sent her 210$ never received the product they held it in Wilmington NC and the only way to receive the product was as to pay an additional 257 Dollars. "Security" . I refused and she said she'd refund my money she didn't.
