Counterfeit Product

After reading fairly good reviews about this company, I purchased a product from them online in June, 2026. I returned the product within the refund deadline (30 days). The company confirmed I was entitled to the refund and gave me an address to return the products to (they also let me know they only communicate via email...no phone number). I paid to return the product via US Postal system using certified mail with a return receipt as a tracking method. I received the signed receipt a couple weeks later. After a month, I checked with the company for refund status since I did not see it on my bank account. When I asked for status they requested details which I sent along with an attached copy of the return receipt. I have not heard back from them since then. It has been 3 months since the purchase and I have rechecked reviews of this company online and have found numerous complaints about refund fraud, scamming and ghosting customer requests.

Online Purchase - Pubnitewear

I ordered a flannel jacket via their website on Facebook on 9/27/26. Money was withdrawn from my account same day, I got notified package was delivered on 10/15/26 via their website tracking through emails. I checked mailbox nothing was there, and no slip saying it needed to be picked up at Post Office. So I tracked package with tracking info they gave me first through their site which said it had been signed for and delivered on the 15th of October. First off if I have to sign for something to be delivered I have to pick it up and sign for it at Post Office because packages from USPS don't get delivered to our door in our area. I went in and spoke to post office where I found out that the tracking number I was given is not a valid USPS tracking number.

Online Purchase - Outskill.games / Gaming

I had saw an ad with another game I played and decided to download Outskill from the App Store. When initially starting they give a free credit which I used to earn myself some funds playing the games in app. I had earned up to about $14 and decided that it was time to make a deposit of $10 using PayPal to get up to the minimum $30 withdrawal threshold. After winning in the games and earning my money fair and square I was ready to make my first withdrawal for $33, however once submitting my request, about a day later I recieved a notification in app that my withdrawal failed. This was alarming so I went to see what was going in the app come to find out all the money I earned was taken out of my account and I have been banned for “suspicious activity”. I have not once done anything unethical when playing their games so the claim is completely false. I then emailed the company and they are refusing to provide any solution and are just telling me that it’s automatic. At this point this company is a scam and needs to be reevaluated on the Apple Store. I have submitted a claim there but I want to protect others from the same experience I had because of how near impossible it is to get in contact with someone who isn’t AI. Images included below. I don’t have the withdrawal request because they won’t let me view my history and aren’t looking into the issue like I requested.

Online Purchase - Online Purchase

I saw the ad on Facebook for Wendy's Qualicum Beach, which claimed to be a small boutique store that 'Wendy' had been running for 8 years and that she was now retiring and selling the rest of her stock at high discounts. Since my birthday was coming up I splurged on several items, all originally priced between $200 - $400 and on sale for 70% off. Initially only half the items arrived and I knew right away it was a scam. Very cheaply made clothing with no tags or labels. Two bags claiming to be handcrafted/quilted, were cheap screen prints. Clearly AI was used to create the website, which ChatGPT told me was created on Aug 16, 2026. There are many other sites like this one selling the same items, like Susan's Sweaters. I've been messaging back and forth with 'Wendy' and was also given the Netherlands address to return the items at my expense. I went to Canada Post and it would cost $247 to ship the items AND Canada Post confirmed the address doesn't exist. 'Wendy' is still maintaining the address exists, that the items were not misrepresented, that quality is 'subjective' and is offering me a 75% refund (which would still be a significant financial loss). My next step is to contact my credit card company.

When I asked what it looked like he said he didn’t have a photo. I then asked for his card and he handed me one stating that it was his father’s card who was also named Harry Harrison. His truck had no company branding and he was not wearing anything with company branding on it. He then drove off and went door to door for all of my other neighbors.

I noticed a charge for "Elevate Jewls" for $39.97 on my Chase Visa card in July and could not remember buying anything from a company with that name. Now, several months later I see that a charge for $39.97 has been made monthly. I have no idea how the company got my credit card number, but see other comments online that this company fraudulently charges for a monthly "Subscription" to many other people. Their website elevatejewls.co has many faulty links. When "Cancel subscription" or "Contact" are chosen the link goes to a notification screen from Zendesk stating their platform is no longer used by ElevateJewls.co and the customer should contact them directly. However, the phone numbers listed 866-999-2795 and 888-897-2168 no longer function. The phone number 800-897-2168 returns the announcement the number is busy. My email to their address of "[email protected]" has been incomplete and timed out for the last three days, since October 17, 2026.
