Scam Description
My friend was ordering 2 shirts from this boutique. She was told her total was $36.50. My friend sent the money to her via PayPal. She was told her order would be to her in 2 weeks. She order back in June and while waiting she never received her order. She then asked the girl if she could just get a refund because she had not yet gotten her shirts. They girl told her she would have to wait because she “sent the money to the vendor”, even though she sent the money straight to the girl. A few more weeks go by ad she had yet to hear anything, so she messaged the girl and was ignored multiple times. My friend decided to comment on one of the girls Instagram posts about the refund and she finally got back to her. The girl then started getting very upset with my friend and telling her that she would get her money when she got it and that she needed to stop messaging her. My friend did make a post on Facebook to let everyone know about the situation and just give a warning before buying from this boutique. The girl then proceeded to continue to message her and told her that she needed to take down the Facebook post. Of course she did not take down the post, so the girl then told my friend to “suck my d**k’. All my friend asked for was her money and was basically told she would not be getting it and she would not see her shirts. We do not believe she has a license for business and we could not find her on here, I did however want to reach out and let you all be aware of this girl. Her boutique is called Trayneboutique and it is ran by a girl of the name Taylor Palmer. She does have a Facebook page with the name of her boutique as well.
