Employment - Zenith Sales

It’s an MLM masquerading as an outreach liaison for various charitable organizations. When I fell in with them, it was the United Breast Cancer Foundation. The work is no better or more dignified than door-to-door sales, and any money “raised” in fact went directly to the conspirators; the people in charge of the hiring process are the faces of this scheme that most see. No donations were ever made. Employees, “donors,” magnanimous strangers, anybody not involved in the managing process was intentionally misled. This organization does none of the good it purports to do, and is frankly besmirching the good names of the charities it claims to work with.

Fake Invoice/Supplier Bill - Fake Vehicle Warranty Scam

I received a piece of mail saying that it was from the Vehicle Services Division referring to a new car that I bought. I actually bought the car referred to inside. It says, “Our records indicate that you’ve not contacted us to have your vehicle service contract activated. We’re informing you that if your factory warranty has expired, you will be responsible for paying any repairs. Please call immediately as this will be our final attempt to notify you.” It also asks to respond by August 22, 2025. There are no other pieces of identifying information as to where this is coming from. This seems like a scam.

Received postcard and letter saying "We have been trying to reach you regarding a matter of importance as it relatws to your mortgage" (letter), "This notice is regarding your current morgtgage with [Bank]. We need you to call us about an important matter regarding this loan. This is time sensitive so please call us at 833-382-7407". They include what they purport to be a "Mortgage ID#". The fine print describes its source and that it is not with the lender. On the letter it identifies an NPN# 19588308, which is not mentioned on the postcard. It appears to be an insurance solicitation but it is deceptive and appears to rely on time sensitivity to induce people to call a phone number which may put their PII at risk or be used to scam consumers.

I replied to an ad on facebook. I then messaged this lady and she redirected me to a woman named EV. She told me about this company called trackonomics and how i could earn money. Day one i had to send $28 to an account via cytro currency. I got that money back and them some from training so it seemed a little legit. Day 2 i needed to send 238 b.c i reached an ultimate but i was gonna recieve almost 4k that day. I talked to EV to tell her is this the only one etc she kept telling me yes. Then after i sent it i got another ultimate needing now to send $800 with the possibility now of getting close to $10k. So i did and hit another ultimate my third one now needing to pay almost 2800. Thats when i knew this was a scam. Dumb me for sending the money but it seemed so promising. She did try to keep pushing me to send it after numerous times telling her no and that it is a scam.

Worthless Problem-solving Service - Property Cleaning Scam

Oshane solicited his services in my apartment building, presenting himself as a contracted maintenance worker. He showed me that he had access to the building using a white fob card, which led me to believe he was officially employed or contracted by the property. I later discovered he was never affiliated with the property in any official capacity. Initially, Oshane performed small tasks around my apartment but never completed them. He claimed he would inform the weekday staff to follow up with the necessary materials. When I asked other maintenance employees about it, most either did not speak English or said they had no knowledge of any request. I eventually submitted an official maintenance request online. The tasks remained incomplete. On my move-out day, Oshane assured me he would return to fix everything: the tub remained clogged (he had removed the drain cover but never replaced it), and the blinds were torn from opening the window. At that time, he also mentioned that he ran a moving business and regularly helped tenants in the building. He said his services included use of a moving truck, packing, and trash removal, and that for an additional $250, he would unload and assist with unpacking. I agreed but did not pay Oshane until the morning of my move-out. Oshane did not have a vehicle—I had to rent a U-Haul myself. He did not provide professional moving services. I packed, moved boxes, and cleaned the apartment myself, completing over 80% of the labor. He also failed to remove trash or clean as promised. During my move-out, Oshane left multiple times, claiming he had other jobs in the building or across the street. He took the U-Haul and my extra apartment fob without permission, delaying my move-out by an entire day. When I confronted him about the service and unauthorized use of my rental and key, Oshane agreed to return my money. However, he continuously dodged my requests, giving vague responses and never following through with a refund. When he finally returned the U-Haul and keys, he resumed helping move my belongings. My mother was present to assist, as I had grown frustrated and was ready to dismiss him from the job entirely. Instead of finishing the move, Oshane turned his focus to my mother’s house. The basement was in poor condition, with part of the ceiling collapsing, exposed wiring in the laundry area, and damaged wall panels. Oshane offered to: Install drywall near the washer and dryer Replace the damaged ceiling panels in the entertainment space Repair the basement window (which was missing a screen and limiting airflow) Fix her bedroom floors He was given a $300 deposit and left to work on the basement while I finished unloading. That evening, Oshane installed only partial drywall and used duct tape to cover gaps, claiming it was just temporary to block bugs and debris. He left the ceiling taped up and never returned to finish the drywall, ceiling, or bedroom floor work. To make matters worse, I later received a $1,080 charge from my former apartment’s property management for the condition of the unit upon move-out. Photo documentation is available showing unfinished basement work, exposed wiring, duct-taped panels, and the poor state Oshane left the repairs in. These photos support my claims of his failure to deliver on services, despite payment and verbal agreements.

I posted about a home repair job on Facebook, and received several bids. I accepted one submitted by Dale Collins, for a total of $2800 to do repairs specified in a plan by a Structural Engineer. Dale Collins asked me for a $500 deposit for materials on May 2, 2025, which I paid upon production of the formal invoice for the deposit, including his RBQ number, and company name Dcol GG Construction. The work was to begin May 5 and be finished by May 8, 2025. He never appeared to do the work. He did not respond to emails sent May 7 and 14 asking him to return the deposit. A formal demand letter sent July 7, 2025 by registered mail to 2 addresses listed as his in relevant registries were not picked up. As of now, 3 months have gone by; it is clear Collins intends neither to complete the work nor return any part of the deposit.

I’m unsure where this company is based out of. I ordered a dress for $54. Once it arrived, I realized the quality is awful, the zipper doesn’t work, and I wanted to return it. I reached out to the merchant for a refund. It took them 3+ weeks to get back to me and have been giving me the runaround. No phone number either. They’re asking for photos of me in the dress to verify that I don’t like it, which is extremely rude and odd. They’re telling me that I’m gonna have to pay $60 to refund a $54 dress. It’s like their scam is to send out awful quality dresses, knowing that they aren’t going to refund the customer.

Contacted via WhatsApp with Job Opportunity. When I replied, personal information was taken (name, address, phone). Job was ostensibly to review products for online merchants (Amazon). Went through initial training then started. Two tasks per day, 39 reviews per task. I got paid .4% per task per set. First couple days I earned like $10-$20 per day. I was assigned a coach who encouraged me to upgrade which would require adding money to a Crypto.com account or I could wait till I built up $500. None of this felt kosher but I wasn't spending money, just time so no big deal. I searched but found little on the internet about this company or any related scams. Three days in I received a $39 bonus. Coach said this was random and rare. Then I recieved a $60 bonus on day six. I transferred money to my bank though Crypto.com Onchain (at their prompt) then into my personal Coinbase wallet then to my bank. I had to transfer $50 back into Onchain then Shopphantom to keep working. I had to complete two tasks, 39 review each, to stay current. Day 9 I was up to like $250 when I received what was called aa Affiliate Marketing 300 Million Carnival Bonus - $158,777. I thought this was too good to be true. It was. First I got confirmation through the Customer Service portal. Then a rep contacted me to assure me it was real. My coach was super-excited for me. I have screenshots of many of these text conversations (as well as the email sent concerned the bonus). When I went to withdraw to Onchain it was rejected. When I asked why the company rep sent a screenshot of their Terms and Conditions saying the Onchain account required 10% of my total account balance before they would accept my transfer, something to do with money laundering. Red flags and alarm bells went off for me. I said I could not and would not invest $16,000 plus of my own money on a maybe. I was repeatedly told that 1) I'd signed an agreement 2) my money would be accessible through my Onchain account and 3) don't worry, we got you bro. I walked away.

Government Agency Imposter

I asked AI to assemble the information on how to renew a passport in an expedited way. I called the National Passport Agency to make an appt since we have the ability to drive there this weekend to appear in person and get same-day renewal since my departure date is close (3 1/2 weeks away). They declined as they renew when travel is imminent within 14 days. So the regular office expedited still takes 3 weeks to process and return which cuts it too close. I then sought out information from the private company Passports and Visas . COM. I first called their ph number 800-860-8610 and was placed on hold for 30 mins and finally there was a place to leave my information for a callback. I jumped on the website to indicate which service I need and dates of travel. The menu asks for name, address, email, birthdate, phone and to select how soon you want your docs and the pricing. I selected $549 4 day expediting and supplied my credit card. In email I got an order #2821181 with an invoiced amount showing a charge--different than what I had selected of $494.91. The instructions said to go to the website and sign in to finish the documents and get the list of what to mail in to them. I didn't have a password, and so I became suspicious. Suddenly the warning bell radar went off. The 3 emails I had received seemed minimalist, with broken links. I went to their website and looked deeper. They show several buildings and addresses of their locations around the different major states. They have ph #s for each. I looked up a query whether this company had been involved in Better Business Bureau complaints and it responded in the affirmative that many people reported losing their money, and even worse, their expired copy of their passports or visas after mailing them off, and being forced to report them as stolen and cancel their imminent travel plans. So I called my credit card company and had them cancel my card and reissue a new one before the pending charges could post. So other people do not fall prey to their phishing scam/fraud.....Please bring these SCAMMERS to justice!
