Other - G Plans

G plans took $129 and promised glp-1 shots. After taking the $129 they say you need a doctor telecom appointment to decide if eligible. Once you go to schedule an appointment, there are no appt times available, and it has been that way for over a month now. I requested a refund since I’m not receiving any services from them. Contacting support does nothing, no one answers or messages back, ever. And then after canceling service, they continue to try and charge your card.

Online Purchase - Luvost

This company put up an add for a reduced price purchase at $1. They then attempted to charge me twice more for random amounts between $70-85. There is no way to sign-in on their website to see your subscriptions/purchases, and they have no customer service line. I am unsure of how to get them to stop trying to charge me, and I never even received my product to begin with.

I put a deposit on a rental from this company. I gave them a deposit and insurance fee in July, and in August, I did the final payment. Which was on the set up date then the person. Block me from messaging them. And I have no communication with them anymore. And I was out $300 from this service. In fact, I contacted my bank and they are known to be scammers. They do use multiple phone numbers as well. The transaction was through Zelle i tried to do a dispute on it. Zelle will not give me the money because there is no money in the bank account, so they cant get the money. They withdraw it right away.So then its a loss of money.I've been going through this process for 3 weeks now. Finally got a response and I did ffile a police report as well.

Retail Business - Book Publishing

This type of scam is what I call the long con. Prime Publishing Books, initially charged me some reasonable fees for publishing , art work, and getting me up and running on Amazon. This is how they gained my confidence. Next they offered me a bulk book deal where I pay 20K for printing and get a return of 60K. On the day of the scheduled payment, they contacted me and said I had to pay an additional 16,745 for "taxes". This is where I should have known better but I was focused on getting paid the 60K. I sent them the additional also via bank transfer and they then said the buyers backed out and I would receive a refund in 10 business days. several weeks went by no refund. Next they called and said that they tried to transfer the money twice but the transfer didn't go through. Telling me they were out 120K and I needed to pay andditional15K for some sort of bond. I had already figured out that I had been taken to the cleaners. So I told them no more money. Two and a half months have passed and I got a phone call yesterday and they wanted me to call my bank and tell them that I initiated the three wire transfers. Those funds were received by them and taken from my account in Feb. and March. I don't know what the angle is but I can only say to authors to avoid these people like the plague. They are pretty slick.
