Type of a scam Online Purchase
I was targeted on FB through a specific ad. I one a gym and I was starting to look into various pieces of equipment relevant to CrossFit.
The deal was to buy a used, lightly battered Concept 2 rower and Assault bike that was used in the Crossfit Regional Games for ONE HECK of a deal!!
Normally concept rowers are $*** of more and assault bikes are about $*** and the offer was to get a Concept rower for ~$*** and an Assault Bike for $197 with free shipping, what’s to love!
So two weeks passed and I got an email that shipping was to occur and was going to be 1-2 weeks on freight. I was waiting for the tracking number and 2 weeks later I checked and the link from my email went to the site and the shopify site was "no longer available", I looked into other reviews and a bunch of other people had the same experience. Attached is a link of a woman who had the exact same experience as me.

I am incredibly heart broken over this and disappointed.I also attached a screenshot of my email and the link that is no longer available for their website.
