Scam Description
All I can tell you is I was online shopping, this Uiewiy site pop up. I’m thinking great I could get family members gifts without spending hundreds of dollars. Not thinking this was too good to be true. Paid for purchase with debit card. No problem. Christmas come and gone no delivery. Started looking up site. Bam!! I find out it was a scam. I reach out to their customer service asking about merchandise. I was told that in logistics that merchandise was in process of delivery no problem. I got my bank statement for January 2023 decided to contact my bank. My bank supposed to have done an investigation. So they needed order number, tracking number etc. I sent everything I had through email. Off the gate, they said visa would not refund my money because of the fact that the tracking stated that the merchandise was delivered. That was a lie. So the person that I was corresponding with via email told me to check with neighbors so forth and so on. They know they never sent anything. I have via email with four different people as of March 9, 2023 demanding my money back. I am very very upset that the fact that through my bank, Visa will not do an thorough investigation and refund my money. This is a big problem and no one seems to care. Im not rich. I have bills to pay. This site should have been investigated and shut down as soon as the first person complained. I need my money back. This is a big problem. It’s not fair. I want or need something done ASAP.
