They scammed me out of $700 sometime…
They scammed me out of $700 sometime ago with crypto (I’m an absolute newb and didn’t know it could be traced. They explained to me how to buy BTC and how to send it to them. I was a naive dummy.) All this was before the website looked so professional. I was so excited to get a bulk order of mega dose bars. My favorite!!! But these jerks are not the ones to ever order from. Absolute scammers and conmen. They use every possible way of accepting payment that does not give the buyer any security or recourse when they don’t send your package. I admit I was naive in my excitement. And there had been no reviews of this place/website when I had ordered. I must have been one of the first people that they scammed. And seeing some of the other reviews, I see they are still using the “it’s held in customs and you need to pay $500 to get it out.” When I said no, suddenly “only $250 to get it out of USPS holding” Then it was $150. They gave me an expensive learning lesson.
I was patient for a week or two. I didn’t want to be a “Karen” and aggravate them. But I did have to start pestering them to see if they really were going to refund me. Initial replies were lied to put me off, then they just ghosted me.
What kills me is that if they did legitimate business, they’d make a ton more money. Because people would be repeat customers. Instead they have to manage to scam whoever will fall for their fraud, but it can’t possibly be many people. Whereas if they legitimately sold these items, they could rake in multiple thousands a day. Legally.
If I lived in CA, I know I’d report them as scammers and fraudulent sellers.
