Online Purchase - Online Vehicle Purchase Scam

After many phone conferences and emails with this car dealer and signing purchase order and loan agreement, on 12-15-2025 I sent a wire transfer to this dealer in the sum of $14,200.00 for 50% down payment for the purchase of a 1970 Chevelle, which I found out later that the dealer did not own. I checked my account the next day on 12-16 and found that the wire transfer had gone through and this money was taken out of my account; then I talked to Paul Mantis, the dealer salesman and we signed a cancellation agreement, which said this money would be refunded by wire transfer to me within 1 to 2 business days. There has been no refund rec'd; dealer and rep are not taking my calls, can't even leave a message, sent texts and emails and no response. Dealer phone no is 585-326-0702. This dealer shut down its website, when go to it there is black screen and it opened another website with a different name and is trying to sell this same car on that website and with the same phone number. This was a internet fraud from this start with no intention of delivering the vehicle or refunding the down payment. Just prior to the wire transfer, I asked dealer for a copy of the title and the dealer emailed a copy of an Idaho title to me, which I found out later was fake. I confirmed with Idaho DMV there is no such title. There's more detail and I'll be glad to discuss and provide all addition info and docs you might need. This internet scammer, using facebook and instagram to defraud me and stole and kept $14,200.00 of my money. For more detail and docs, attached is letter and docs previously sent to Illinois Secretary of State Police on this scam and theft. Please call me on my cell# 972-979-1347

Online Purchase - The Boho Muse

followed a tiktok link for this item and placed the order. The item I ordered (a crossbody duck bag) is no longer listed. Additionally I found the actual creator of the bag on tiktok who said her video was stolen and posted by a fake account. So the product is fake and has not been delivered. The original creator continues to make videos saying her images were stolen and other creators confirm this as well. I escalated the issue to PayPal, and the scam site keeps telling me to close my case so that they can issue a refund. The scam site has now provided a tracking number to PayPal but won't share it with me. Additionally the scam site was created in December of 2025 and is very poorly written with incomplete sentences

I thought i was paying and ordering a one-time thing, first charged a month ago and the product still hasnt shown up. when i follow the tracking it looks completely fake, I've never seen a tracking like that, and has been "in customs" for over a month...but the contact info for the business is from Florida? OOhh I feel preyed upon in a moment of insecurity and now I seem to be locked in to getting charged twice a month for absolutely nothing.. super sketchy! Let this be a warning to anyone considering that ish on the website. I just got a notification that I'd been charged again, still haven't seen the first thing for which I was charged... website is almost impossible to navigate to a cancellation option. I attached screen cap of the actual cancellation policy that pops up and it is very suspicious, I should have paid better attention, lesson learned. Seems they autosigned my ass up for a monthly (maybe 28 day??) renewal for this bogus company now. I have emailed them already about the first order never showing up ... no reply about any of my experience but they were on it with the auto renewal... probably every time I reach out they likely sign me up again. smh.

Advance Fee Loan - Loan

So I googled personal loans, they can up , their website said they were with the BBB. So thought it was ok. Then the next day they called me ,said that my loan for $10,000 was approved , and that my credit score was to low so that I had to take a small loan and send it right back ,so they know I would repay the loan back . If I just ran away with the money they would call my bank and report fraud. So they deposit the $1251 in my account and send me a picture of a barcode and go to Walmart and load the money on to the Cash App but didn’t work , they said there was a error and took the money out electronically. And that I did that to show I was a customer and then in 2-3 hours I would receive my 10,000 but it never came and when I tried to login to my online banking , the bank said that it was restricted.here we are . Waiting to hear back from my bank .

Counterfeit Product

The website looked legitimate and the photos of the bags were beautiful. The leather was high quality, the bags were lined and the stitching, gorgeous. They stated that they were hand-crafted in the US and shipped domestically. They were on sale so I gave into the temptation to treat myself to a lovely, new bag, thinking it would last forever, by the looks of it. The bag arrived from China, in plastic, with Chinese stickers. When I removed the bag, it was immediately obvious that it was made of cheap plastic, not hand stitched, nor artisan-crafted as claimed on the site. I reached out for a refund and they replied that I would have to pay all return shipping and tracking costs to China (for a bag supposedly shipped from the US). They offered me first a 10% then a 20% discount to keep the bag, but I replied that I was uninterested in keeping the cheap knockoff and requested that they provide me a domestic address and a shipping label (as stated on the site). I received an automated email, again, offering me 20% off the retail sales value. I have filed a chargeback with my payment processor for fraud. Be advised! Stay away from this predatory “company”.

I was not disputing the work performed or the cost. I requested confirmation of licensing and bonding solely to reassure my wife and to protect ourselves, and asked for the contractor’s legal business information. After not receiving this information, we verified it independently and found that he is only licensed as a trainee electrician, with no active contractor license, no valid business license under his name or the listed LLC, and no bond on record. He has refused to provide a refund or any documentation showing that he is properly licensed or bonded. He also stated that he would send inspectors to our home if we continued asking questions regarding his credentials. Based on this, it appears he is performing electrical work beyond the scope of a trainee license and representing services that are not legally authorized. the inital work done ended with more problems that john then refused to return for unless $1700 cost could be made for special diagnostics. he accused me of messing with his work after it was finished
