Online Purchase

I used a public records website that advertised a $1 search. I agreed only to that one-time fee. Shortly after, my card was charged additional amounts ($9.95 and $7.00) without my clear consent. There was no transparent disclosure that I was enrolling in a subscription or authorizing recurring charges. This appears to be a deceptive billing practice designed to enroll users into paid memberships without clear, informed consent. I have requested cancellation and refunds and am disputing the charges with my bank. I am reporting this to warn others to avoid this website and to encourage further review of its billing practices.

My wife used an agency called just theirticket.com. She purchased an airline ticket and there was an agency fee. My wife was unable to keep her flight so it was extended. The agency pretended to be in contact with the airline United Airlines, but in fact was lying. There is no airline fee or difference in airfare for an extension of flight. The agency initially said $700 then said oh I’ll talk to the airline came back a few minutes later and said they’ll do it for $613.89. Contacted the airline. They said it was total fraud. They don’t charge any fee. I contacted my credit card company disputed the charge and was reimbursed. In my opinion, this was a felony because this individual impersonated an airline and took money, which was not hers. I’m reporting this so it won’t happen again. I’d like to press charges, but it would not be worth the time or the money to do so. I reported this to the FTC and I’m hoping they lose their license and are kicked out of the state. Thanks.

This company’s website deliberately misleads American consumers with it is website claiming to be headquartered in Flagstaff, AZ. I placed an order but had not received a tracking number so I reached out to support. After multiple back and forths of bland reassurances from the “company” which offered no actual update on my order, only that it was “on its way”, I was finally told the items were being shipped out of Hong Kong and delivery could take 2 months. Meanwhile, this company was still offering “Easter” dresses on its website as late as 3/31/26, 4 days before Easter. What’s more unfortunate is how carefully this company worked to hide the details of their business practices. This company is fraudulently misleading American consumers, and hopefully based on the amount of complaints received March 2026, will be shut down immediately. Strongly recommend not making any purchases from this company.

We wanted to drive down to their home, visit with Anastasia and her husband, see the dogs and at that time, if we felt comfortable with everything, then we would give them the additional funds.

Phishing - VIOLA ROLAND

My name is Kaito Viola I am a partner at Viola Rolad LLP, Canada

It may surprise you to recieve this letter from me, since there has been no previous correspondence between us. There is an unclaimed "permanent life insurance poilicy" held by our deceased client. 

The transaction pertains to an unclaimed "Payable-on-Death" ("POD") savings monetary deposit in the sum of Eleven Million, Five Hundred & Fifty Thousand, and Three Hundred United States Dollars ($11,550,300.00).

The policy holder was one of our clients, Late Eng. Robert Scheetz, who was a Real Estate Investor and precious stone dealer. He was a Covid-19 Victim, who dies about 2 years ago. Since His death no one has come forward for the claim and all our efforts to locate his relatives have proved unsuccessful.

The insurance company code stipulates that "insured permanent policies" not claimed must be turned over to the abandoned property division of the state after 10 years.

Therefore, I ask for your consent to be in partnership with me for the claim of this policy benefit, in view of the face that you share the same last name and nationality with the deceased. If you permit me to add your name to the policy, all proceeds will be processed on your behalf. I wish to point out that I want 10% of this money to be shared among charity organizations while the remaining 90% will be shared between us.

I ordered a gorgeous midi dress (cream or ivory). The dress arrived VERY cheap, not structured as pictured. It also arrived with two defects that were visible on the light-colored fabric and thus unwearable. I reached out via email and did eventually hear back but was strong armed into washing the item myself and accept the item. Then they offered 15% return and keep the item, then it was 20% off and keep the item. I continued to tell them that the dress was unwearable and I didnt feel comfortable washing an item to see if the two stains were unwearable. I eventually told them if I didnt get a refund and return at no cost to me, I was reporting them.

I received a text from Amy Daniels from ENVEIL, a company in Maryland offering a position for an Administrative Assistant on Monday March/30/2026 afternoon. I was instructed to promptly join an interview on Microsoft Teams online where I was told to search for Mrs. Brie Campbell. I was interviewed for about 2 hours and instructed to be back online the day after, March/31/2026 at 5am(PST) or 8am(EST). That morning, I was given the results of the hiring interview and was hired right then and there. Immediately, I was told that I'd receive an e-mail with the offer letter so, I could print, sign, scan and send back to the company. Attached in this document, was the front and back of my California Driver's License. Furthermore, I was given instructions that I would receive a check from the company to buy the equipment needed for me to develop my position remotely (work from home). Around 10am of this morning, April/01/2026, I received a hefty check to buy the equipment they had asked me to buy. I was directed to go and deposit the check to my bank account. Once at the bank, the funds were held back for about 10-days. Immediately, my banker flagged this and warned me that this might be a scam. I hesitantly, did not believe her and gave the company the benefit of the doubt. I returned to my home. Once at home, I returned back online where I decided to re-read the conversation online and unfortunately, connected the dots and realized myself that this was, indeed a scam. I immediately returned back to the bank where I was fortunately (thanks to urgent action by my local banker) able to return the check and stop the transaction. My account or money were not compromised. I blocked all their contacts, from phone numbers to e-mail addresses. Later this afternoon, I received a couple of suspicious job offers, offering the sane or similar job position (remote work). I blocked those too.
