Scam Description

Online Facebook & Instagram ad showing a warehouse in Tennessee, US from which buyer is purchasing a returned Amazon pallet. Ad includes photos of the warehouse, contents of the box packaged with the pallet items, choices of the pallet size & type (e.g. electronics box), & testimonials from previous buyers. Confirmation email is received (this is the first time company name “actionsthat” is revealed). Website actionsthat.com holds no physical address & “24 hr chat” is an overlay, not an actionable link. Product (still advertised as pallet box) ships from SHENZHEN, China. Item received was a single generic set of wireless headphones that can be purchased locally for a few dollars (see photo). Email address returns as invalid.
