Phone call claiming to be Amazon asking if I purchased a phone etc or an Amazon account. Said no was transferred to a man at FTC supposedly told me I had numerous accounts opened up in several banks in my name which was sending money to Iran Nigeria Ukraine huge sums of money. I do not have any moneys in the bank or credit lines open so I didn’t think I would be a good target cause I am dirt poor! I gave answers to a few questions like birthdate and address but it sounded very legitimate. I’m looking into it and I will follow up if I find out anything more.

The person pretended to work for Amazon and told me that my address was changed on my Amazon account and that I placed an order for $1,600 for an iPhone 16. I am expecting an order for Amazon today so when I asked her for the order I am expecting today what it is she again said the iPhone 16. This is not what I ordered so I asked her again to tell me what I ordered and when I called her on her scam she hung up the phone on me.

Offered a very low mileage Ford bronco at a very low price of $42,000. And looking at the map of the area it’s obvious this is not a high-end dealership. The google images are of a vacant rundown building. I read online that someone else reported that this business has been Closed for two years. It seems that the scammers have assumed the identity. Also, the images of the photos appeared to be stock photos in various locations certainly not at this so-called dealership. When I spoke with the “gentleman“ on the phone, he had a thick eastern European accent, perhaps Russian.

Scammers are posing as big lots and running ads on Facebook. It looks like the real deal but it isn’t.

Received a message with no identifying information, saying an order was going to be processed unless I called. I called back, knowing it was probably a scam, and the woman said she was from Amazon's fraud department, and that an order of $1400 worth of Apple products were going to be shipped. I stated I didn't order this, she asked if anyone else had access to my account, I stated no. She then ran a "fraud scan" of my account, and came back saying I had several accounts under my cell phone number, and would I please verify what locations I had previously lived. I told her I wasn't comfortable giving out that information, since I didn't know if they were truly Amazon, and she said "Okay, you can hang up now". Reported this to both Amazon, and the FTC

We reached out to Ticketmaster to request a refund and the purchase new tickets and to verify who my wife was and that they had the correct ticket information they requested she send them gift cards and apple payments to a specific number. This was her first time purchasing online tickets and was not aware of the process. She sent them $3,000 in mixed Apple Cash and Apple gift cards and kept asking for more. Once I got involved and asked questions they hung up. All employees my wife spoke to (5 individuals) all had heavy Indian accents.

I was on Instagram and bought of an influencers page that linked me to a website that looked like Costco and made my purchase on an ice maker. Never received the ice maker and noticed two odd charges on my bank statement and an overseas charge. Complete scam. Can’t track my shipment and the website is not Costco.

I came across an advertisement on Instagram that appeared to be from JoAnn Craft Stores about a clearance sale. I placed an order. I should have been more suspicious that it ended up being to a paypal account. They did a very good job in developing the website. It looked very legit. I should have known though based on the web address alone.

Placed the order on a website identified as Wayfair. (Web site no longer exists) Received a tracking number several days later. About 3 weeks later it showed as "Successfully delivered." Items were never received, emails return as undeliverable.

The caller claimed to be from Amazon and wanted to make sure that I was the one that ordered an Apple Mac Book cost $1499.00 when I said no, he wanted to transfer me to my primary bank to make a stop on the payment and stop the delivery to Ohio. He claimed that he got six banks on records but will not tell me the bank names for security. He needed to know my primary bank so he can transfer me so I gave them my primary bank names. A few minutes later he transfer me to "US Bank". This representative that claimed from US Bank after a few chats, asked for the last four digits of my SSN. I asked her what was her name again and where does she work with? She got uncomfortable and I asked her I wanted to make sure she is an employee of US Bank so I started asking her about US Bank. She claimed she was with the headquarter, etc. And I asked her where is the headquarter located then she hang up.

I was scrolling on Instagram and came across an ad from pink blush for a sale. I clicked on the Instagram ad and it brought me to a website. I added items to my cart and checked out. When I checked my email for confirmation, it was from “Habilarian.” I never received my order after complaining. They offered a partial refund that I never received.

This scam had another reputable companies website “Wayfair” and was listed an over stock sale, I did think the prices were low so I looked online to see if Wayfair had such sales, which they do. I offered something, received and email confirming the order. It ALL looked like it came from the original WAYFAIRS website. It was only when I looked at my credit card statement did I see a different name on the “purchase receipt” there is no address or phone number listed. I believe the company is located in China. Facebook SHOULD make sure they are advertising Legitimate businesses
