Phishing - Homeowner Protection Division

I received a postcard for Mechanical Systems Warranty continued protection. I called the number to ask what this warranty was about. I was told it was a warranty package I received when I purchases my residence. I did not purchase this type of warranty when I purchased my residence. I was informed that I needed to renew my coverage and if not if anything happened to my dwelling I would spend thousands of dollars for repair. I did mention I had insurance and I was told insurance did not cover what this warranty covered. Also that there was no other business that provided coverages in the US that covers any dwelling/mechanical systems. I was told that I needed to pay for the continued protection that would cover me for 3 to 4 years. So I asked for a complete package of what all was covered and the cost before I paid for anything. I was told I needed to pay upfront then in 7-10 days I would get the package. Once I received the package and reviewed it if I did not want to continue to have the coverage I would be able to get a full refund. I mentioned this was not a good practice to get money 1st before the customer knew what they were purchasing. The person started getting agitated with me because I keep asking for paperwork on what was covered and the cost and I was not providing payment, The phone call ended up with me telling the person this was not good business practice and they were not getting any money from me. Then hung up.

My wife thought the bank needed an update on homeowner insurance. When I reviewed the letter, I realized this was a private company trying to confuse folks into calling them.

Investment - Direction Media

DIR is filed in Aurora, CO but it is just a mailing address. Who knows where scammers really are.. it is world wide. They offer you payment for promoting ads to platforms like TikTok, Instagram and YouTube. They actually pay you at first until your group gets too big then no one gets paid and they have many excuses and cons to try to get you to pay more to resume getting paid. “The con seems like it could be legit” but… it is 100% a scam. I feel very bad as I bought in and got many more ppl in and then we all lost $.. for the group it is probably close to $50k Red flags that I know now, WhatsApp communication so they can control it easily. Lies and more lies every week, promises to resume pay but never do. Website down now. No terms of service agreement. Many violations of US contract law, they just make up rules as they go along. Scam goes like pay for VIP levels and get paid where u can withdrawal funds. Pay goes up and other perks to increase VIP level and earn more with ppl below you that u bring in. But once u get to certain size the trap closes and no payments. Further investigation shows the business model would not work with video promotion like this as those platforms have filters to keep this type of content promotion from happening. I can provide files but BBB platform not working to accept

Ordered a specific type of flower for my moms birthday and to let her know that she was going to have a granddaughter named after the flower. The flowers received were far from the type I had ordered and also apparently poor quality. After hours on the phone and sending all the required images and documentation that the company asked for multiple times, they offer a 10% return of funds paid to them. They then admit sending different flowers without contacting me at all because they were out of the ones that I ordered. Further investigations online indicate that they often do not send flowers at all for many special occasions, sadly including many funerals. This company needs to be shut down.

Employment - Keysss Enterprises and AZ Logistics

I was hired by an individual for weekly remote work. From the start, he was consistently late in sending payments, and I often had to follow up multiple times before he would pay. Despite his lack of communication, I continued delivering the work each week as agreed. Recently, he stopped paying altogether. I sent him an invoice for the current week and multiple reminders, but he ignored all messages. When I attempted to contact him through other platforms, he blocked me. He also changed his tone and tried to twist the situation by claiming he never told me to return to work, even though I had been working continuously without any instruction to stop. He completely cut off communication and has not paid me for the work already completed. His behavior shows a pattern of unprofessional conduct, avoidance, and non-payment, leaving me with unpaid wages. I am filing this report so others—especially freelancers and remote workers—can be aware of his actions and avoid experiencing the same situation.
