Scam Description
I had shopped on a link from Facebook claiming it was a Bomba’s socks website, which I’ve ordered from before. The site looked exactly like Bomba’s and when I got an email there was no information about my order and the only way to find my order info or contact customer service was to click on a link that turned red when I hovered over it. I knew it was a scam. I went directly to the Bomba’s site, ordered my products and received within a week. I finally did receive the other order like 2 weeks later but they were fake socks portrayed to be Bombas. I had the real ones to compare too. They looked like them but they did not feel at all like the real thing and their logo was not the same. They were clearly fakes. Do not order from a social media site, go directly to the real site. I should’ve known better because they were “40% off” on the fake site.
