Scam Description
Purchased items from an ad on Facebook. The ad says that the company was Willow Tree – Sale. The receipt came up with Vikrasseth Limited, not Willow Tree. The account that I supposedly set up with Willow Tree is nonexistent and there is no order found with Willow Tree. I noticed nothing in the ordering that indicated that the items would not come from Willow Tree. The telephone number on the receipt to contact the “scammer” was +44 7897 078735, but it links as 590-244-7897. Loss of money and closing my credit card to get a new one, so as not to have anything else stolen.
