Online Purchase - Online Retailer Scam

I saw an ad on Instagram for an advent calendar of "sea glass ornaments". I clicked on the link and went to the website to purchase two of them. (https://www.poetchic.com/products/sea-glass-christmas-tree-advent-calendar-2 and https://www.poetchic.com/products/2025-sea-glass-advent-calendar-ocean-treasures). The pages show actual sea glass ornaments, pictures of someone drilling a piece of sea glass to make an ornament, three-dimensional ornaments sitting on a table. When they arrived, they were not made of sea glass. They are pictures of sea glass ornaments embedded in clear plastic. Both of the advent calendars I ordered are plastic-encased images. It's a complete scam. I am attempting to get my money back but I just got a canned reply "we have received your order". These people need to be shut down. They are selling a fraudulent product.

GROUNDINGOFFICIAL.COM I ordered an earth grounding fitted Queen bedsheet which arrived quickly from a Burnaby, BC location. I used the sheet for 2 weeks and was surprised by the positive results on my body pains and sleep quality. After washing the sheet it stopped working. I tried using different outlets on the sheet, as there are 4 different placement options on the sheet. I looked up the warranty period and realized I had a 90 day money back guarantee. I contacted them and initially they requested photos of the sheet showing its condition and to confirm its use after washing. This would help them identify the issue and guide me on my next steps. I sent 2 pics of the sheet still on my bed. Then on the next email response they instructed that the sheet be returned to Germany and provided an International address to return the sheet to; and after I provided proof of sending package by providing a tracking number of the package they would provide a full refund after receiving the sheet. As I keep all original packaging on orders that have a warranty period, I realized that the order I received was sent from a Burnaby, BC address, so I responded by email that I would not return the sheet to an International shipping address provided as the product was sent to me from a local BC address. I told them that I expected an immediate refund or a replacement product to be sent. Again they responded that although they understood my concern about an International address they were unable to offer a refund or return on my order. I responded with an email suggesting that they reconsider their response as The Grounding Official website states -“9/10 users love us. If you don’t, we offer a 100% Money Back Guarantee with no questions asked’’. I attached a print screen of this to the email. I wrote that I expected a full refund to be processed immediately. I asked for the Manager to call me and provided my phone number. Their final email response was -“Thank you for reaching out and sharing your concerns. We truly understand your position, we’ve reviewed your request carefully. After consulting with our management team, we regret to inform you that we are unable to offer a return or refund for this order. We sincerely appreciate your understanding, and if you have any questions. about your product or need assistance with it’s use, we’d be happy to help.” Yep, I got duped but I’m doing my part to hopefully save someone else some money and stress of being swindled. We live ‘n learn. They will get theirs.

i was contacted via text message by a person claiming to be “Annie Corbin” from Nexxen offering me a part-time, remote job that would take 20-30min for training and i could start making money the same day. first i was instructed to make a training account on a fake website with a join code and then i was told to “optimize” product engagement using AI, all i did was press two buttons. long story short, i did a whole bunch of things to go along, they had me add $18 to my cashapp and we are now on the buying of bitcoin step. my “account” on the fake work webpage is in the negative and needs $18 or so to “top it off” to keep working, they sent me screenshots of reviews from fake people claiming that it was a necessary and trustworthy step, one of the reviews was from a “Nina Patesh” for cryin out loud. you would think they’d at least be clever with it. but i assume now that they’ve had me add $18 to my CashApp that they’re going to have me buy bitcoin and try and “deposit” the 18 bucks into my account using the crypto wallet address that they are going to send me through WhatsApp. they have three “Customer Service” numbers linked to WhatsApp. apparently when you work for them you still contact “Customer Service” for support lol. i can explain the whole thing in more detail if its important but its so long, this was over like two days cuz i was tired of keeping up with them so i kept delaying. they asked for screenshots of everything but i made sure to keep crucial personal info hidden, this is more of a report and mockery than it is a cry for help or pity. ive seen too many scam videos and stories to fall for whats obvious, it was kinda fun while it lasted, but i aint buyin bitcoin so this is the end.

So let's say I want to buy a piece of music. If I go to musescore.com 1. there is no displayed price for the product. 2. There is no purchase button, only a blue button to tell you to take advantage of the sale and a download button. If you click the download button, it appears you are buying the music for $6.49. Literally any piece of music, you are automatically opted into a a yearly subscription. What you initially thought could have been $6.49 charge for your music is actually more than 10x that. By default you are charged 69.99 for yearly subscription that you don't know that you're signing up for. In the attached image below, you'll notice a toggle button. that they have does not explain what it does. It does not encourage you to explore. But if you just happen to randomly click on that toggle button, you'll realize that the price of the music isn't $6.49 The $6.49 are displayed as the default price, but you're not paying $6.49. you're paying $69.99 for the first 3 months and then the price jumps to 84.99 a month. The fact that they force you to subscribe by default is a dark pattern. The fact that they do not display a purchase button and obscure their prices is also quite disconcerning. The amount of accidental purchases because of the Stark pattern have become so frequent that there is a subreddit to show people how to not get charged for a subscription. https://www.reddit.com/r/Musescore/comments/1oim4vj/how_not_to_get_unnecessarily_charged_on/ Also, if you do a search for the Muse sub Reddit you'll see that almost every week there is someone complaining about these practices. I have zero belief that Muse group, the creator of Muse score.com has any interest whatsoever in resolving these issues as it has been a huge financial boon to them.
