A sponsored ad came up advertising 2017 Ray Ban sunglasses for 90% off on my Instagram stories. Clicking on it brought me to http://www.rb-plaza.com/ which is not the official Ray Ban website. They we're selling glasses such as wayfarers for $24, seemed too good to be true so with a quick Google i found out that this is a regular scam and usually the website is only a month old and based in China.

I saw a 90% Ray Ban sale and unfortunately did fall for it. Realized after seeing shady confirmation email. Not sure what to do now.

My boss told me about a site to order ray ban sunglasses for 19.99. She saw it on facebook. The site looked genuine. I ordered 3 pair and then afterwards thought I should have checked the web site out like I always do but didn't this time. I was excited to get them as gifts. The site came up as very possibly fraudulent. I got back on the site to cancel my order and it said you can cancel order within 6 hours but the only way to contact them was by email. I then became very nervous. I contacted my credit card company and the order had already been charged. I cancelled my charge card account. Went back to the site to delete my account and to cancel order. There is no way to delete my account. My gmail account put the email purchase note in spam. I reported it to them. I did send an email to cancel my account and changed my account information to my work info. Very upsetting.

On Instagram my daughter saw an online for Ray Ban sunglasses. The add looked incredibly authentic. They were offering glasses worth approx $350 for $25 they stated they were on 'clearance' getting rid of older styles.
My first cc declined (it is in good standing). Used another it went through.
I then rec'vd a phone call that number was known to be a scam out of bijing.
Please warn Instagram of this site, it has since been blocked on the computer.
