On Friday, July 3rd, I was victimized by an online scam resulting in a fraudulent transfer of $440. The perpetrator deceived me into sending the funds via Chime's "Pay Anyone Transfer" feature under the false pretense of paying for shipping fees and required shipping insurance for a delivery. The individual used the Chime handle $Qesean-Tracy and was associated with the phone number +1 (606) 231-4610. I subsequently filed an official dispute regarding this unauthorized/fraudulent transaction directly with Chime, but my request for a reversal and refund was refused.

Online Purchase

I saw an advertisement video about this pressure washer online. I looked at reviews and all seemed on the up and up, and had been having problems with my current pressure washer, so I ordered the Aquoxis pressure washer. Apparently it came from China as it took over a month to get here, even though it said American and German engineered. I didn’t use it right away, but when I opened it to use it, there were three different couplers and so I tried all three to hook to my hose using their instructions. Unsuccessful, I came back inside and proceeded to go to QR code but it was just the online pic of paper instructions. I go to their website, no help. I Google it, no help. I try to live chat from website, no response. I have emailed them, tried to call, no answer. My husband comes home from work and said a coworker did the same. None of the couplers will fit a hose. It’s like it is missing a piece. The coworker could not get in touch with anyone either so he threw his in the garbage. So, I’m thinking this is a scam that they are making $100 of each person. Do not buy this pressure washer!

Counterfeit Product - Wendlly

Ordered 2 “patriotic” T shirts from Wendlly on June 6, 2026 to choose 1 to wear on 4th of July. Advertised as made in USA Supposed to be made of linen/cotton blend. Shirts were of VERY cheap quality, made of polyester NO tag re fabric content NO tag re how to launder NO tag re country of origin Generally, NOT as advertised VERY poor quality Emailed them re I want to return the shirts and get a refund ($61.07) They emailed back “take a picture of what you want to return” Did so. They emailed back my return/request for refund request will be “reviewed” but it will take 5 - 7 days Waited a week. Emailed them back. They said in order to get a refund I’d have to mail the shirts BACK TO CHINA! OR I could accept a coupon for 10% off on my next purchase. Yeah, right So, today I started the formal dispute process with my credit card co. They have issued a “temporary” refund pending their investigation. We’ll see. Bottom line is, DON’T deal with pop up ads!!! They’re foreigners and they lie. Order only from US companies you trust.

Investment - Investment - GreenBay Chart

Feb 4, I was looking for an investment opportunity to learn about stocks trading. Clicked on a link and someone called me and explained their services and I asked that I register so a financial investor can get back to me with direction. The suggested that is tart with a small amount so they can walk me through the trade, which all seemed legit, they even walked me through how I would withdraw money from their platform, and I did, for 100$ Then, they started pressuring about a big trade event and I should deposit more money so I can get leverage and earn big. I didn’t but they went ahead and opened another “big event” account and deposited a “credit” of 20,000USD and showed me charts that it gained 16, 000usd in one day. Now they are calling from different numbers asking that I pay the 20K that I “owe” the company!! Or I lose the money that I invested with them. My account is locked and I have no access to it. They pose as well versed in trading so they can easily dupe inexperienced, especially due the professionalism in the first few weeks They say they are located in United Kingdom or Switzerland. The use fake name such as Jordan Tucker, Aaron Kaufmann - who is the boss (head scammer in charge) I have also dealt with an Alexndra Levy and Anna Williams I know I may not recoup my money abut am hoping that you can list they website somewhere as a warning so they don’t scam anyone else

Then once we were members we would get even more free gifts. We were very reluctant but they kept pushing. We finally gave in and went on our way thinking we had a great deal because we live to travel and this would make it affordable. Boy were we wrong. The free trips just for coming to the seminar have been impossible to use. They stopped taking our monthly payment. They sent us a letter several months later. We called them, set up payment arrangements to get back on track so we could still try to use them and get some sort of services for the money we paid. A month after the agreement, they turned the balance of the contract to collections. We called them to cancel the membership and they refused. Complete scam.

I previously reported a scam where I lost money to Digron Machinery Depot in Sioux Falls, SD. I have been trying to find out information on the individuals and recently found this new website that is essentially the same. https://harrisontradeheavyequipment.com/ Please find these corrupt individuals and stop them from scamming others.

Beware of a total scam! I ordered a special arrangement of sunflowers and tulips, my daughter’s favorites, for her 50th birthday. I specifically called what I thought was a local florist and didn’t argue price! They were listed on the internet as “Flowers by Eva”. What a scam!! I should have called 1-800-Flowers. When my daughter called me thanking me for the arrangement, I asked for a photo because I wanted to see how this special arrangement turned out. Not one sunflower! Not one tulip! A cheap $50 arrangement of nondescript flowers - definitely not the $150 special arrangement I ordered. Attached is the photo of the crap their customer service claims was a legitimate substitute. I am livid and hope this florist goes out of business due to bad review
