Online Purchase - ELLIE SEATTLE

Its a beautiful website with beautiful stained glass pieces. Shows retail price from $200-250, but discounted to $45-$55 due to going out of business. Once the order was placed and I started to track the order, I realized they were being shipped from mainland China. The pieces are plastic and they can only be plugged into a usb not an actual electrical outlet, making them useless to me. Fake & cheap. Shame on me for not being wiser.

Online Purchase - Online Retailer Scam

I ordered from Qizicha and paid through PayPal. THIS IS A SCAM. When the items arrived they were not at all what I purchased. They were cheaply made stitches of cloth. I emailed them from the website and this is what they wrote back: Wed, Apr 8, 10:09?PM (3 days ago) to me Hello dear customer. Thank you for your reply. If you confirm that you would like to return the item, please carefully review the return address and return procedure below. Also, please make sure to send us a photo of the note. And provide the return slip number so that we can follow up on the return. Return Address.

The buyer shall bear the return shipping cost. 1. Prepare a piece of paper with the return order number or e-mail address and the SKU of the product (SKU is the text on the label of the package you received), as well as the reason for return. Place it in the package and send it back. 2. Please send us a photo with the return tracking number. 3. We will refund the purchase price after receiving and inspecting the item. 4. Please send it back through your local post office, do not use DHL, UPS, TNT, FedEx or other courier services. (If you choose one of the above fast shipping options, you may have to pay import taxes and delivery may be delayed due to the customs clearance process. ***Please note that before you return your item, here are some additional reminders that go beyond the requirements of the return policy. 1. Return shipping is expensive and usually takes a long time to receive; 2. unlike packages sent to you by our commissioned freight forwarder, your return package is more likely to be lost in international shipping; 3. refunds (excluding shipping costs) will only be transferred once the parcel has been received and inspected for clarity 4. the declared value must be the same as the original parcel, otherwise import taxes may be incurred and the returned parcel will not be delivered to us and returned to you. 5. the original parcel needs to be charged with shipping fee (we need to pay some shipping fee when it is sent to you), when we receive the returned parcel, the system will deduct the corresponding fee Since return shipping is expensive, can we reach an agreement on compensation? We can give you a 20% refund, you don't need to return the package. If this is a penalty for you, we will refund to your original payment method. Sending best regards. Mary Do not use.

Employment - Employment Scam - Amazon Impostor

“I Was Scammed by Amazon Handmade” On January 6, 2026, I saw an ad for crafty homeworkers needed. I messaged the person on Facebook Messenger. The name that the messages were coming from was Burokas Darius. That should have produced red flags. But, my desire to work from home and escape the hate and prejudice of the American Workforce blinded me. We exchanged messages for a few minutes. He asked the usual pre employment questions and I answered. Somewhere I was instructed to download the telegram app. It was explained to me that I would be putting the finishing touches on handmade products. Once I completed my part of the production, an agent would come to my house and inspect my work, take pictures and issue the payment on the spot. Later that day, I was contacted on the telegram app by Amy Reynolds from the Amazon Handmade Products Reception Department. The fact that it was a program under the Amazon Umbrella gave me confidence that this was a legit program. I even went so far as to sign into my personal Amazon account and look for the “Handmade” section of the website. And there it was! My confidence grew that this was a legit operation. I was contacted every morning by “Amy” and guided through “small tasks” to perform, to make money, while waiting on my shipment of products. I did the menial tasks and got rewards of $3-$4. So far, everything was running smoothly. I was fronting some of my own money to do some of the tasks. Somewhere around day five I did the “meager” tasks and was instructed that there was another task that I needed to perform, before I could get my commissions and fronted money in return. I had invested $100 of my own money and earned $30 in commissions. Once the task was approved, I should have received my $100 and the $30 commission. I was informed that I had to perform a task that required $$300-$1200 up front money. I went ahead and paid another $500 expecting to receive $1000 back. After that I was informed that the task required one more step and I needed to send another $840 and I would receive $2000 when I finally finished the task. We did a back and forth banter in which I was told that I would not get my front money nor my commissions if I did not participate in this task. We went back and forth in the telegram chat as I explained to the gentleman that I did not have that kind of money. He asked, “ how much money do you have?” I said,” twenty dollars.” he said,” So you wish to forfeit your commission?” “ The system has now assigned a third task. After completing it, you can obtain a withdrawal code and withdraw your funds.” I begged and pleaded for a refund and said I would forgot the commissions. I was told over and over that I would not receive the refund until I finished the task and sent the $800. The shipment of goods that I was supposed to get and assemble has never arrived. I did my due diligence as far as trying to ascertain if this was legit or not. Handmade is listed on the Amazon website as an affiliate. I do not click on links in email or text messages. I just wanted to work from home…. PS I have screenshots of the entire conversation...

Scammer contact me through UpScrolled social media app. Moved conversation to Telegram messaging app. Telegram app failed twice then moved to Zangi. Relationship lasted for two months in which time they convinced me that we were Romantically connected and convinced me that they were orphaned in childhood and was an adult who cared deeply about the plight of orphans. Then convinced me to donate money to their charity and also convince me to invest in a fraudulent bitcoin mining company. I finally got wise to the scam after losing approximately $7500 in total as well as selling off many of my personal belongings and purchasing a plane ticket to Spain in hopes of being with the perpetrator. Only after experiencing suspicious activity on the fraudulent bitcoin mining site did I begin questioning the authenticity of the website and the perpetrator.

Online Purchase - Online Retailer Scam

I am looking for an attachment for my hose that will allow me to pressure wash my deck. A Google search for hose attachment to pressure wash found https://bestbuyersguide.org/, and that site rated Qinux Aquoxis hose accessory highly. Based on that rating, I placed an order for a single item, a nozzle attachment, on https://bestbuyersguide.org/?************************************************************************************************************************* for $67. I received 3 invoices by email; the first was for the hose nozzle for $67; the second was for a 1 yer warranty for $9, which I had NOT selected; and the third invoice was for a “Journey Man Pack” —whatever that is— for $4, which I also did not select to buy. I immediately contacted Cablelinker via its website to say I had been charged for items I did not want, and that I therefore wanted to cancel my order. Thereafter, Cablelinker sent me two emails stating that it would address my email during weekday business hours. (I placed my order on Friday, ~ 6:00 p.m. ESt. I’ve contacted my Debit Card company, ***** *****, to alert them to Cablelinker’s attempt to overcharge me and my cancellation of my entire order, although I am not satisfied that ***** ***** will treat my report of this fraud as a stop-payment order; the ***** ***** agent repeatedly told me that ***** ***** would negotiate the total amount with Cablelinker; I repeatedly stated I didn’t want ***** ***** to make any payments to Cablelinker, and I told the agent I had placed the order a scant 10 minutes before I contacted ***** *****, explaining to the agent I had used the intervening time to contact CableLinker to cancel my order. When I spoke to the ***** ***** agent, CableLinker had not submitted an invoice to ***** ***** for payment. I do not think that CableLinker is a legitimate enterprise.
