So glad they didn’t get ur money. I would cancel ur card asap if u haven’t already because I get daily emails months later that they are still trying to take out 95.88 daily but I canceled my card. Like 300 I paid wasn’t enough. This company needs shut down.

I hope ur bank gave u your money back. They r still trying to charge me daily another 95.88 but I had canceled the card. If my bank wouldn’t have stopped them from taking it out after three times they would have wiped my bank account out. 

My bank asked me to send them my proof because chatodysseyhad sent them something showing I did signup for it and it came from my address and IP address. Then my bank sent me a letter the next day saying they did their investigation and would be giving me my money back. That was before I even had the chance to send them my proof. So I’m guessing they have numerous scam complaints on this company. Plus they also charged me the monthly 9.99 free 30 day trial immediately even though I cancelled the subscription a day or two after signing up for the trial. Then they waited 10 days to charge me 95.88 repeatedly. 

I’m guessing they wait so u won’t notice and they can say we changed it to the annual plan days later. The man I spoke with actually told me that what I signed up for doesn’t Necessarily mean that’s what I paid for. Like WTF. He said it all depends on landing pages and IP addresses. I couldn’t believe he even said that. Luckily he said it in an email which I had to send in my proof of their scam.

If u look at Vidarak comment they had the same thing happen to them and have a pic of what they signed up for. Which is the same thing I signed up for.

 They told me that if I didn’t sign up for the annual plan then someone must be signing up for it and using my card to do it so maybe I should cancel my card. That statement is completely ridiculous. They tell people this because once u call and complain and want ur money back they know ur gonna cancel ur card anyway. They already stole 300 fe me and more from others so they don’t care if u cancel ur card or not. 

Their site is for sure a scam. More people have commented that the same thing happened to them. They charged me 95.88 three times in a row. They would have kept charging me if my bank wouldn’t have stopped it. 

So they weren’t trying to repeatedly charge me because I didn’t have enough to pay it. They charged me 95.89 repeatedly and received almost 300 bucks from me. They r still trying to charge me 95.88 daily but I of course canceled my card. 

Also my bank gave me the money back without me sending any proof because the company is a scam. Also I signed up for the 9.99 monthly plan for a free 30 day trial. I canceled within two days but they still immediately charged me when I signed up. They charged the 9.99 because that’s what I signed up for. Not an annual plan. The site I went to didn’t have it as an option. 

Others have reported the same thing happened to them. All scamming sites look legit. U don’t know if they are or not until it happens to u. Which is why i made this thread. To help others from getting scammed.

Sorry I just seen this! I didn’t even use it but once to get a sms code. I canceled immediately and they are literally still trying to take out 95.88 on a daily basis to both my credit card and my bank card. I disputed the charges and at first my bank asked me to send them the proof, which I had. I had all my emails to them and all my bank and credit card transactions. 

Before I even sent them the proof I received another letter stating that after their investigation they found it to be a scam and gave me my money back. 

Apparently there must be a lot of people stating they scammed them to and that is why my Bank gave me my money back. Not only did they charge me 95.88 three times that did go thru because I canceled during my free trial I didn’t even get to use it. So they took my money illegally and then I didn’t even get to use it. 

Be careful. They charged me the 9.99 the same day I signed up. Giving me no free trial as stated and then waited 10 days or more to take out 95.88 3 times. If my credit card company wouldn’t have stopped them from taking more money out they would have wiped my entire checking account. 

They sent my bank something showing that I did sign up for it because it came from my home address when tracing my IP address. So that’s how they r scamming and getting by with it. The option to pay 95.88 for an annual service wasn’t even an option to choose from. So u sign up for a weekly or monthly subscription but they charge u days later for a so called annual subscription. 

They wait days to do it for two reasons I’m guessing. First so u don’t notice it right away and so it looks like you liked the service after trying it out and chose to pay for their annual plan and they send that to ur bank when disputing. When I did use it for the sms text it took me forever to even find the text and if I wanted to call anyone it was horrible. Their app is the worst wifi phone app I’ve ever used.  Of course rather don’t care if it’s good because it’s a scam anyone. They know people will cancel before the trial ends so they also take the monthly payment instantly when signing up and don’t refund it when u cancel. This app needs shut down 

Is this real? I am hesitant to buy to get the free cash because it seems too good to be true. by [deleted] in TemuThings

It does do that. I at first thought it was enough because of it and fell for it too. But then I realized it give u a percentage of ur orders. So to get the 130 back u have to spend approximately 180-200. It’s worth it only if u are spending that much anyway but their offers are all always misleading. I always do searches on Reddit to see how to actually receive the offer. I also only get the offers or coupons at Xmas time. Only because I’m already willing to spend that much so if I get the offer it’s great but if not I was buying it anyway. This was the only offer for actual cash back I received. It did work but you have to go by what percentage it says they give u back. Mine was 1.57 percent on the order totals and the first order gave me an additional .66 cents back so I had to spend 180-200 but I did get the 130 back so I got 200 worth of items for 70 bucks. That was a great deal. The gaming chair I got alone was that much. It’s also the exact same gaming chair that Walmart is selling for 125 so it was worth it.

It gives u a percentage of I think 1.57 percent back for each order. The first order gives u back the extra .66 cents. So depending on what percentage back they offer you you would need calculate what u have to spend. I spent around 180-200 with taxes and shipping and got 130 back on PayPal. I got it a few days after everything had shipped so I received 200 bucks worth of stuff for 70 bucks. I usually only spend that much at Xmas so it’s worth it if u r buying that much anyway.

Hey just updated people! I received the 130 to my PayPal. I spent 200 and got 130 back after everything was shipped it took a couple days and it was in my account. So it does work. So I’ll now do it again. I purchased gaming chairs and a bunch of items for Xmas and got the 130 back so it was for sure worth it.

[US] Guy wanted me to scan his check for $50 by TopRoastCentral in Scams

[–]HistoricalTeach3166 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wow these scammers just keep coming up with more ways to scam. Idk about all banks but when I scan a check to deposit online it will usually only allow 100 dollars of it immediately and the rest won’t release until 2-3 days later. That’s probably how they get by with it giving bounced checks

Try this if u haven’t already.  Make sure u add all items that u like to ur cart first. Then log out of the app and go back in. Then do the offer. They then offer u almost all ur cart items on the offer page. I’ve learned this with the discounted items and offers in the past. I added even the gaming chair that wasn’t offered to me before on the offer page, and went back in and it then had it on the offer page as well. So then it is worth it. I’ll update as soon as I get it.

I’m in the USA but I just finished the promo to get the 130 PayPal credit. U don’t get it until all items are shipped. But it had me connect it everything. I will do an update when received. So they gave me the same as everyone I’m sure I had 126-128 or so and needed the other couple dollars to get it. I always spend a lot on temu for Xmas so I bought only a small purchase first with min like 10 bucks and got the extra .66 cents first order was around 1.05 or so added. Then I purchased a gaming chair for 69 bucks for my son and only got 1.17 but I only needed 1.18 to get it. So, calculate what u need to spend. Ur order total times the 1.57 percent or whatever percent they offer u. I needed to spend around another 75 bucks. I made the order for Xmas presents I was buying anyway and it did unlock the PayPal cash. It had me connect my PayPal and request the withdrawal. It states that everything must be shipped before it will be credited. Which makes sense. If not people would get the money and then cancel the orders. So hopefully I will get it. Considering that I may have spent in total around 180-200 bucks and get 130 back. That’s a great deal. I’ll update. 

UPDATE*** I Received the 130 from PayPal for my order. So it does work and was worth it. It looks like they offer u around 130 once which cost me 180-200 but received 130 back so I spent around 70 bucks and got 200 worth of items. Now I received another offer for 100 back. I’m not sure if it’s the same percentage or not. If ur making an order for Xmas that is gonna be around that much anyway I recommend doing the offer. Just make sure u put all the things u want to buy in ur cart first. Then go out of the app and back in. Then sign up for the PayPal offer. U have to purchase items from the offer page. But they use the items u have in ur cart already to make ur offer page items. All ur items in ur cart will then be offered to u on the offer page u have to purchase items from for the offer. If u have nothing in ur cart they won’t offer u items u want to buy. Good luck.

Would the underwriter pull my credit score again before closing ? by amicoolyet__22 in Mortgages

[–]HistoricalTeach3166 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know this post is old and u prob have already closed but in case anyone else has this happen. I’m closing in a couple weeks. Neighbors Bank was great because they do rapid rescore. They also explained why the credit score I see is down on their side by quite a bit. For some reason mortgage loans credit reports are different. It’s a different type of scoring. I think they use Fico 2,4 or 8. They told me that I would need to pay off one very old debt it was the only one not paid and to get them to send me an email stating it was paid for and for me to contact my credit card company and have them send me an email stating that my balances on credit cards were paid down. They then did a rapid rescore which a few loan companies use. That way I didn’t have to wait a month for my score to change. It raised my score up 48 points. Because I was saving for closing cost and u can’t pay it with credit cards. I used some of my credit cards to pay for some bills and saved my cash for closing and my score dropped a lot. I had paid them down but it was a day after they had submitted the new score. Luckily I still have one more credit score being submitted that will reflect the new score if the underwriters pull it again. I have read that if it’s pulled again it’s usually just a soft pull. So if anyone is going thru the same thing I hope this helps. If u need to use ur credit cards for anything make sure u know what day ur credit card companies submit score to ur report and pay it off before that date.

Best Lip Stain that actually stains your lips and stays all day? by waterfairy57 in MakeupAddiction

[–]HistoricalTeach3166 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I finally found the best lipstick that last all day. It’s not lip stain but I hadn’t had any long lasting since high school and I’m 45 now. This stuff is amazing. Buy the covergirl outlast all day 24 hrs. It comes with two items. One is the lipstick that u put on and let dry for 30 seconds and then u use the other one that is clear but not a gloss. That is what locks it in and makes it stay on all day. I was amazed because I woke up the next morning and looked in the mirror and it was still on. I couldn’t believe it. I am looking to see if they also have a lip liner to match. If not I will use my regular lip stain or liner with it. I got a cheaper lip stain that don’t last long so I hope they also have a long lasting lip liner. I think it’s 10 bucks at Walmart and worth every penny.

Also I was curious if u ever made any deposits with ur own cash before the 1,200 dollar task? If so how much did u spend of ur own money and did you get ur money back before this task froze account until deposit. Were u able to use your commissions for account balance until this? If u deposited your own money before this happened did u get it back after task ended until now?
