Investment
I was contacted from someone on X, through Facebook and asked to switch to Telegraph. I was told about an initial investment of $500 through a broker for Bright Wave Holding Inc. After the account goes up to certain levels you have to pay a fee for each level and you can't access ANY of the money. To get a verification you have to pay over $700. Each time they keep increasing amount to force us to pay and then say we will have access to the account. I requested our original investment and payments back. It amounts to over $3,000.

Phishing - Home Warranty Division
This was a postcard received in the mail. It looks very official. It is 2-sided. One side has at the top of the card "Home Warranty Division" and the other side of the card has "County Deed Records". It states that it is a warranty replacement notice for Mechanical Systems. I did not call the number which is 1-888-413-5452. It gives a registration i.d. number and a pin number. This is clearly a scam because we don't have this type of warranty coverage. However, since it is so official looking, I can see how someone could easily fall for it.

Online Purchase
I saw a sale for garden sculptures on Instagram. Found their website and placed an order. Received confirmation and shipment tracking info. The shipment tracking never went past the label was created. No package was ever shipped. The seller claims the post office couldn’t deliver the item and it was destroyed. The shipment tracking shows the post office never received the shipment. Tracking number 4208010892612903574903000013422460

Counterfeit Product - Online Purchase
This website sells clothing with very nice photography and impressive looking products. I ordered a celtic chunky knit sweater. This is the ad copy;
Men's Viking Tribal Tree Of Life Celtic Chunky Knit Hooded Sweater
What I received was a knock-off print image of a knit sweater on cheap plastic pop bottle material. It was neither a sweater nor a knitted product. Completely fraudulent.
I complained loudly to their customer service for a refund. They refused and instead offered me a coupon for 20% off any of their other products, which of course I wouldn't purchase in a million years.

Online Purchase - Online Retailer Scam
I ordered a necklace and never received it back in August 2024; PayPal refunded me the money after some time. Today, I was charged $32.12 from Paypal, and I did not order anything from them, period. I have to wait 30 days for PayPal to make a decision. This pisses me off I never ordered anything from them why do I have to wait 30 days. I'm canceling all accounts as soon as I receive my $32.12 back!
