The SlimmingStrap

Fernando – Dec 09, 2020

I placed an order with slimmingstrap.com on August 7, 2020 for $24.97. The money was taken from my account and i received an email confirmation After a few weeks I still hadn’t gotten tracking information so I reached out to the company. I did not receive a reply, so I waited another week or so and tried again…nothing. To this date, I have received no product and know for a fact that this is a scam.

Initial means of contact Social media (e.g., Facebook)

Ordered two SlimmingStraps for $24.98 total from an ad on Facebook. Received order confirmation email on 7/28 and shipment notification on 7/31 (had a tracking order in email). $24.98 was charged to my credit card on 7/28. Tracking number is not valid when checking on shipment. Shipment has NOT been received. I haven’t tried emailing them but I will certainly do that today to see if I get a response but in looking at all the complaints against this company, I highly doubt I hear anything back from them. I hope something can be done to put a stop to their scamming innocent folks.

I ordered two of SlimmingStraps from a post on Facebook in July . The site looked legitimate, even had BBB emblem! I received an order confirmation email on 7/28 and then an email saying items shipped on 7/31. Tried tracking the order (through Shop) to learn that the tracking number could not be found. My credit card was charged $24.98 on 7/28. I hope whoever is pulling this scam is found and severely punished! I will be reporting to BBB; not sure if they can do anything but it’s worth a try. I must say I have learned a hard lesson from this; it’s so hard to trust anyone now-a-days…

This came up as an Ad on Instagram and Facebook. I decided to buy it and was sent a tracking number and was instructed to download an App called Shop in order to see where the order is. I ordered it April 28, 2020, after contacting them multiple times through the app and the through email I have not received a reply. It’s been 2 months and have not received the order. I thought that the product would be coming from China which is why I waited so long to report it but I am now 100% sure that this is a scam. DO NOT BUY FROM THIS!!

This company is not real! They claim to be accredited by the BBB, but they are not. They will take your money and provide no product. Do not purchase from this website and please report their IG account (@theslimmingstrap) which is falsely advertising their non-existent product.

I should have checked reviews before purchasing anything on Facebook but I figured, I have bought other things perfectly fine. This business never responds to your messages or emails. I ordered on April 29th. I was informed it was shipped and now, June 12th and still no package. The least they could do is email back and let me know there is a delay. Unfortunately, the scammers are probably long gone.

This is a product used as a beauty regimen but I wanted it to help my sleep apnea while waiting during covid for a cpap machine and I ordered it on may the 2nd. It just says shipped still, and the company wont return my emails. A lot of other women have dealt with this same thing as well. They were all stolen from. I cant dispute this with my bank because it needs to be 25 dollars and it was 24 dollars. That’s how sneaky these people are.

I placed an order from this company in the beginning of April. They ‘said’ they had sent out the package and it should take 10-15 business days to receive. I never received it. I messaged their “customer service” on Facebook and after the initial 15 day waiting Period was over, they never replied. And they changed the name of the page from “The Slimming Strap” to “The Face Bra”. They delete any and all negative comments on any of their multiple pages, and seem to make accounts in order to comment positive things to make people buy.

I placed an order March 15th, they charged my card. They sent me an email on March 19th stating that my order has been shipped. Till this day, 2 months later, when i track it, it still says “Ready to ship”. A lot of people have the same complaint and they’re deleting all negative comments from social media regarding this and they are refusing to give out refunds. They took our money and we got nothing from them.

I purchased an order through their website – theslimmingstrap.com. They claim to be from San Diego, California, but apparently it has been brought up that they may be from China, scamming tons of people out of their money on Facebook. Apparently they are deleting all of the comments as people are getting scammed out of money!!! This website and their Facebook needs to be shut down so they do not continue to scam people as products are never sent out. It is ALL FAKE and DO NOT PURCHASE anything from this company, as it is a SCAM!!!! I put in an order over a month ago, and NO RESPONSE, and other people have posted that they haven’t received their orders that were placed back in March 2020, it is now May 14th.

Facebook ads sent out to massive amounts of people to try get people to buy their product. Bought and never shipped. It is a fake business. The address used on their website is of a house for sale in Sandiego. Beware! They do not answer their email. Having to dispute with card company. Everything seems legit but they are NOT! They hide the comments about fraud on their Facebook posts so that you cannot see it. Facebook refuses to take their page down where they are serving ads to thousands of people. This is a total scam!
