So I ordered a cheap treadmill form an advert on Facebook. It was £23 so I wasn't expecting anything great but I need to lose covid weight. So I had a delivery today from that company. Guess what I got instead ...

A miniature treadmill would have made sense but no I got a money belt! Absolutely no relation to my purchase. Serves me right for thinking I could get something useful for a cheap price. Lesson learned and Paypal dispute logged.

I work for a credit card company and log these scam claims all the time, so I'm going with a fake Louis vuitton or gucci scarf, from China

Ah that sucks, yes you were scammed.

Once I ordered a pair of shoes that never arrived, so I demanded very importantly that they should send me another pair with tracked delivery immediately or I'll report them to trading standards etc.

They sent A package with trackable delivery, what it contained was a very Obviously used sports T shirt.

I really wanted those shoes, they were a particular type of a since closed down company, so couldn't get them from the original company. So I tried and tried again. The bastards. No refund obviously they just blocked my emails, what could I do.
