Appeared as a real sneaker seller company under fake account as @losangelescoolkicks said I won a raffle I entered and to choose the sneakers I wanted and my size they contacted me via direct message then told me to pay via Apple Pay which I did $199.99 then called me after transaction saying payment didn’t go through and to send payment again , at that point I knew something was up then they blocked me from there IG account and phone number they contacted from saying how name was “Tyler Simmons” number (678)462-1586 which I tracked to be an Atlanta , Georgia number possible real initials first name “j” last name “ m” meanwhile that store is a Los Angeles CA store COOL KICKs which is in fact a real quick well known sneaker business/store. This person who scammed me assumed them as a fake identity using there info but called me from an Atlanta number which I provided . I didn’t give me CC info or anything I used Apple Pay so they only got the money they requested but tried to get me to send it again but I didn’t fall for it a second I time. I am a correction officer in westchester county just for info purposes .
