Type of a scam Online Purchase
I found an ad on Facebook selling a blanket I wanted for my girlfriend. Checked out the website which said they were based out of Texas. Read some reviews and decided to make the purchase. After the purchase I received an email saying that the order was confirmed and they would tell me when my order was shipped. 3 days later I checked and the money was out of my account (as well as an additional ATM processing fee which my bank says was from out of the country). The link in my order email sent me to a website to “track my order” but I never received a tracking number. I called the phone number on the email and received a message saying that the line was “busy or disconnected”. The next time I called it just rang and rang and rang. I’ve had no response to emails. I’ve had to change my debit card number and I’m starting the process of disputing the charge.
