The advertised ratchet straps were for a completely different type and set than was delivered. The “company” attempted to solve it and admits honestly they are not the correct items by offering a 15% refund. The materials are extremely cheap and flimsy and not at all what was advertised. They were supposed to be retractable and they’re just a basic tiny ratchet strap with no hook! Absolute scam.

Phishing - Coinbase, Inc

They emailed me stating my coinbase was compromised from a person on Singapore. Amanda Buckley (supposedly) gave me a case number and sent me to Dean Clarke. This interaction went on for a day and I wasn't comfortable so I notified Coinbase fraud department by email and sent me back to the same 2 individuals. Needless to say, they scammed me out of $35000.00 dollars. They have my driver's license, email and credit card (which I have cancelled) There is NO accountability when you think you are contacting a fraud department and then they answer with the same people committing the fraud.

Went to the Winston & Co (artisan treasures) website and placed an order for 3. Three weeks later I receive a cheap and tiny resin owl that does not light-up, and one was broken. They look nothing like what they were selling or I paid for. I emailed their Customer Service team and was told no refund is available.

I purchased a pair of gloves off of a television ad from Ruck and Recon, the gloves I received were not the gloves advertised. They promised a high heat resistant and cold weather, cut resistant Kevlar glove. What I received was a nylon/faux leather glove that was none of the things promised. When I contacted customer service they agreed I was sent the wrong glove and would help correct the issue. When I received the email on how to correct the issue I was informed that the gloves I expected from the ad I ordered from were additional money and they would offer me a 30 percent off deal. Additionally when processing my original order I was offered a price but was never informed of the extreme amount of shipping costs until after the order was placed.

Online Purchase - Riverbend Ranch

I saw what I thought was an ad for a meat box from Riverbend Ranch. If I remember correctly, I had to spin a wheel for a % off or a free box and mine landed on FREE BOX. I saw nothing about there being a raffle or subscription. I believe that was on Dec. 17, 2025. On Dec. 20, 2025 my debit card was charged $78.21 from Elite Gear and Sports. I found a phone # on a Google search and called the number. When the lady answered I gave her my name and told her I had not ordered anything from them. She then asked my name and address and said she found my subscription to Riverbent Ranch Meat Box Raffle and told me I had signed up for a raffle for a meat box but that I did not win for that month. I told her I wanted to cancel immediately and wanted a refund. She told me she could cancel but couldn't refund my payment. Today, Jan 20, 2026, I had a charge on my account using my debit card for $78.21 to Summit Sports Equipment in Utah. Again, I did a Google search and found a number which I called and was told I had subscribed to a Meat Box Raffle. I explained that I called last month and cancelled and was told there were no notes or Cancellation numbers for such and transferred me to a Supervisor, Art Jiles at 877.657.7120. He also there was record of my earlier call in Dec. He did tell me he would cancel my subscription for the raffle immediately and would refund me $35.10. I later did another Google search and found an email for River Bend Ranch Meats. I chatted with them online and found out I had been scammed and that the raffle company was using their name.

My name is Audra Johnson, and I reside at 2065 Chesley Drive. I am writing in reference to my recent water bill with the Cobb County Water Company, which reflects a significant and concerning increase. Historically, my water bills have ranged from approximately $85, with the highest being around $150. However, my most recent statements show charges between $250 and $260, which is not feasible for me to maintain. I am on a fixed income and work Monday through Friday, with occasional weekend hours. Due to my work schedule, I am not home frequently enough to account for such a substantial increase in water usage. Additionally, I have checked my home and am not aware of any water leaks. Given this information, I am requesting a review of my account to determine why my bill has increased so dramatically. I would appreciate any clarification, investigation, or assistance that can be provided to resolve this matter. Thank you for your time and attention. I look forward to your response.

Online Purchase - Real Estate Leads

Referrix Realty contacted me offering to sell real estate leads and promised a designated number of leads within a couple of weeks. Before purchasing, I researched the company and found several negative reviews on Trustpilot and other platforms, along with a few positive reviews that later appeared to be fabricated. I proceeded with the purchase solely because Referrix Realty advertised a 90-day money-back guarantee. Despite this, I received zero legitimate leads. When I followed up, I was repeatedly told that the leads would be delivered the following week. After continued delays, I requested a refund within the guaranteed period. In response, Referrix Realty sent me a list of so-called “leads” that included fake addresses, invalid phone numbers, and contacts located outside the zip codes I specifically paid for. These were clearly not usable or legitimate leads. I contacted the company multiple additional times and was told that my refund was “on the way.” I never received a refund, and Referrix Realty has since stopped responding to my emails entirely. I believe this company engaged in misrepresentation, deceptive business practices, and failure to honor its refund guarantee. I am requesting a full refund and that this complaint be documented to prevent other consumers from experiencing the same issue.
