Employment - BeaconCrate Freight

I received 2 spam emails for the job that does not seem real. Then they called me and tried to offer me an interview. Next, they emailed my main folder. I think this happened because I received a text with a Google Docs link for a job interview form - I didn't think much of it because I have been applying, but the only thing was the link, so that was odd.

Government Agency Imposter - loan forgiveness scam

They first contacted me by mail.. in 2021 beginning of May. I never got a website from them, all i ever got was an email that helped me set up the "repayment plan" that would contribute to my loan forgiveness program. My first payment of 39.99 came out on May 12th 2021 and continued to do so til November 13th of 2024 where suddenly the payments have stopped, i called them and they told me that they were pausing my payments until further notice, and that they would ask me to re-apply in the year 2026. I never expected this to be a scam until i got a letter from my loan provider showing me that my loans haven't moved an inch. This made me research into it and i discovered that this company has been listed as a fraud and with no guarantee of your money back. This is messed up, please who's ever reading this, be careful of online theft!

I placed an order for clothing through a company I had ordered from before called CupShe on June 16th. I was immediately charged for the items in the amount of $88.18. The name that showed up relating to the charge was ADMITEERKIMDEAL. The items were discounted but many of the items were similiar to the items seen on CupShe so I didn't think anything about it. When I placed the order the email I received said the company was called Closetella, but everything still seemed legit. I began reaching out to them on July 23rd and they sent me tracking information. I continued following the tracking information and then the tracking information stopped on August 28th and they said they would resend the package at no charge. They said they resent it and it was delivered, but no one signed for it and I did not receive it. They said they would consider filing a claim, but never did. I'm sure if I reached out to them again they would offer to reship it again. It seems their scheme to keep telling me what I want to hear with the hope that I will go away. I am going to attempt to get a refund from my credit card company. Wish me luck!!! Thank you. ****** ** *******

Home Improvement - Mr-Chimney

Mr-Chimney is the first link on a google search for Chimney Liners, Chimney Sweep, and Chimney Repair. They appear to be a reputable establishment, but this is a scam. The technician they sent to my home was not qualified to work on chimneys. He had no equipment, no camera, no ladder, no tarps, no protective gear, and a tiny shopvac that didn't work (I suspect that it didn't have a filter in it, it just blew soot all over the house). The technician asked me for towels and a caulk gun to preform the work. The work left my carpet stained and the entire first floor covered in soot. All surfaces where covered in the kitchen, living room, dining room, and family room. 6 hours of cleaning ourselves and then we still had to bring in a professional carpet cleaner. Additionally, Mr-Chimney quoted to fix some masonry work at the back of the chimney. They stated that mortar would be mixed up, basically that they would tuck point the brickwork. Instead he smeared a tube of caulk all over the back of the firebox. It looks like a child did the work and provided no improvement. Mr-Chimney will not respond to my complaint. I have called over 7 times, each time they promise to call me right back, and then they don't. They claim to have 5-star reviews on their website, but offer no link to them. They obfuscate their home location. They will send me to different emails, phone numbers, and people all in an attempt to avoid my complaint. They use the name Mr-Chimney to falsely associate themselves with local contractors with the same name.

When they arrived, the items were cheap, thin fabric with a design printed on them to make them LOOK like the quality items pictured on the website. But I wouldn't have paid $5 per item for these cheap knockoffs, let alone the $115 for 4 that I actually paid. When I emailed to refund my order, they offered me $11. When I complained, they offered me $20. When I complained again, they told me their offer was fair and I should please accept it.
