Scam Description
I wanted to order flowers for my friend in Va. Went online and put in the city and state. The very first company listed was “Patricia’s Petals” as the #1 florist business in the area. Phone # 844-292-2244. I called and gave them my order using a credit card. Got a confirmation by email then a couple of hours later my phone rang and it was the same company saying my order could not be processed as their inventory shipment was being held up. I asked many questions and knew then I wasn’t going to get my money back. So I called my credit card company and cancelled the card.
