Scam Description
Hello, my name is ********, and bellow is my experience with the website fake ( https://www.dopeoutletstore.com)
I made a purchase through the GRABR app, where this app connects travelers between countries, that is, as a buyer I place an order by sending the link to the place to be purchased and the amount to be paid, and the traveler who will come to Brazil makes an offer so that the traveler buys it for me and gives it to me.
As soon as I accept the offer, I make the payment on the platform and the platform authorizes the traveler to buy the product.
The platform will pay the traveler only after I confirm receipt of the order.
The traveler makes the purchase with his credit card and informs that it was purchased along with the product tracking code.
And that’s how I ended up buying a jacket on the fake website https://www.dopeoutletstore.com
.
I found out it was fake, after contacting the “original” website
https://www.dopesnow.com/ as per attached document.
They sent us the tracking code for the product, but it’s been over a week now that we’ve been trying to get in touch with the delivery company and the fake website.
Could you help me please? I really need the money.
Thanks
