Victim Location 93906
Type of a scam Counterfeit Product
There is a store located in Northridge Mall Shopping Center in Salinas, CA that is selling counterfeit toys and other items. I purchased one tonight not knowing it was fake until getting him and my daughter informing me of what was wrong. It wasn’t until comparing the fake one to a real one that I saw it was entirely different. The item was an LOL ball, those surprise balls that contain hidden toys inside. I went back to the store and was told by the owner I’d have to call the company where they ordered it from and they didn’t believe I knew what I was talking about. It wasn’t until I basically had to threaten them with contacting the FBI as it’s a Federal crime they’re committing that they said they’d give me my money back. They have TONS of counterfeit items for sale there, brand name toys. I hope to get all of the items removed as they are stealing from people by selling them counterfeit toys
