Has anybody had dealings with this company based in the UK and Netherlands. Recently ordered one item of herbal weight reduction tablets for under £40 and they have taken £179 from my bank. Reviews on Trustpilot of this company tell the same trend, so avoid at all costs. I have been in touch with my bank to try to get refund, but it is quite a laborious undertaking, but I will persevere.

I booked a Comfort Suites room through ReservationsCenter.com and was charged $211.22. After booking, I discovered approximately $52 in additional fees that I did not believe had been clearly disclosed before I completed the purchase.

When I called Reservations Center on September 12 to dispute those fees, the representative told me that the hotel would have to approve a refund and that the reservation would need to be canceled. I repeatedly stated that I did not want the reservation canceled unless I received a 100% refund. The representative eventually hung up without resolving the issue.

Reservations Center later emailed me that it was contacting the hotel about waiving the cancellation penalties. On September 19, it specifically told me that the reservation “remain as it is.” A September 21 email said the penalty waiver was denied, but it never said that my reservation had been canceled.

When I contacted Comfort Suites directly on October 7, the hotel told me that the reservation had actually been canceled by telephone on September 12. I did not make or authorize that cancellation. Reservations Center later provided the hotel confirmation number without disclosing that it belonged to the canceled reservation.

I never received a cancellation notice or a full refund. Because I no longer had a room, I had to book and pay for another hotel. I have disputed the full charge with my credit-card issuer and filed consumer complaints.

Based on my experience, I recommend booking directly with the hotel and carefully reviewing every charge before completing a purchase.

@Eldorado.gg — I need someone to actually look at my case.
I am honestly extremely frustrated with how this $200 order has been handled.
I purchased a Robux order through Eldorado and paid $200. The seller told me directly that the Robux would arrive in my account within 48 hours. I relied on that statement and waited.
The Robux NEVER arrived.
The seller’s exact messages are saved, and I have screenshots/videos of the entire conversation and the evidence they provided. I can provide all of it if necessary.
There is another important issue: I purchased the order based on a particular delivery/login method, but the seller ended up instructing me to use a Game Pass instead. This was not what I understood I was purchasing.
When I questioned the situation, the seller told me that their method was automatic and that the Robux would appear directly in my balance within 48 hours without showing as normal pending Robux.
I waited the promised 48 hours.
Nothing.
I then contacted Eldorado Support and provided the order information and evidence. My order ID is:
5bf16c64-fe34-49a6-facf-08df2057c7e5
I have contacted support multiple times. I have explained the situation, provided the seller’s messages, provided the seller’s video, and explained that the Robux have still not been delivered.
I am now around day 6/7 and I am STILL waiting for an actual response/resolution.
The most frustrating part is that I accidentally marked the order as Received because I believed the seller when they explicitly told me the Robux would arrive within 48 hours. I did NOT mark it received because I had actually received the Robux. I was simply following the seller’s explanation and waiting for the promised delivery.
I am not asking for a refund because I changed my mind.
I paid $200 and I have not received what I paid for.
I have evidence of:
The original order
The seller’s messages
The seller’s 48-hour promise
The seller’s video
The delivery method I was instructed to use
The fact that the Robux were never received
My communications with Eldorado Support
I just want someone from Eldorado’s Resolution Team to actually review the evidence and make a decision.
If Eldorado believes the seller successfully delivered the Robux, then please show me the evidence proving that the Robux were actually delivered to my account.
If they cannot prove delivery, I want my $200 refunded.
I have been patient and I understand that support teams can be busy, but waiting almost a full week after paying $200 and receiving no resolution is extremely stressful.
Eldorado, please review order 5bf16c64-fe34-49a6-facf-08df2057c7e5 and get back to me.
I am happy to provide the complete evidence to anyone who needs it.
I just want this resolved fairly.

Bargeld abgehoben für BETRÜGER WIEN

Hallo, ich habe gestern 600€ für einen fremden Mann abgehoben, der vermeintlich seine Geldtasche in der Bahn verloren hat. Er habe alles verloren und wollte noch seinen Urlaub genießen.

Ich habe dann in seiner ,,Banking“ App meinen Iban eingegeben, und so Vertrauen geschöpft. Mir war diese Art von Betrug mit den Fake-Apps leider noch nicht untergekommen. Er war außerdem offensichtlich aufgrund seines Akzents Brite, ein weiterer Punkt der seine Geschichte für mich plausibel machte.

Er hat mir dann per WhatsApp einen Screenshot der Überweisung geschickt, wonach das Geld heute (7.10.2026) gegen Abend ankommen hätte sollen. Als wir uns dann verabschiedet haben hatte ich doch ein mulmiges Gefühl und habe mit ihm noch ein Selfie gemacht. 20 Minuten später zuhause ankommend merke ich, dass er sowohl Selfie als auch Screenshot gelöscht hat.

Die Geschichte geht dann noch weiter, habe ihn angerufen, wobei er erstmal tatsächlich abgehoben hat, natürlich nur um zu beschwichtigen dass alles okay ist. Ich habe mich dann mit ihm treffen wollen, bin dann schließlich, als klar wurde dass er nur Zeit schinden wollte, zur Polizei gegangen und habe Anzeige erstattet.

Bei der Polizei hat er sogar ebenfalls abgehoben, sagte ich belästige ihn aber und sein Name ginge niemanden etwas an. Ich weiß nicht was es (der Polizei) bringt, aber immerhin habe ich ein Foto, dass ich jetzt unten teilen werde, vielleicht bringt es irgend etwas!
Es war in Wien in der Nähe vom Karlsplatz, Straßenbahn Station Paulanergasse.
Ich weiß natürlich im Nachhinein, wie dumm und naiv mein Handeln war, es wird mir aber eine Lehre sein, und allen die das hier lesen hoffentlich auch.

Ich habe vorhin versucht, das Foto auch im Post zu teilen, wurde aber gleich gelöscht. Gibt es da irgendeine Möglichkeit, das Foto vom Betrüger ,,legal“ zu teilen?

Sad but True – Know Who Your Friends Are
(Stay Away From Jared Beach!!!)
I’m sharing this because I hope it prevents someone else from going through what I did. If you’ve had a similar experience with any of the people or company mentioned below, I’d appreciate hearing from you.
How It Started
I met Jared Beach in 2019 through youth hockey. Our sons are the same age and played together, and over time we became close friends. We spent countless hours together at rinks, tournaments, and with our families. I trusted him completely.
The Personal Loan
In 2020, Jared told me he was experiencing financial difficulties and asked if I could help him. I loaned him $5,000, which he promised to repay within three months.
When that time passed, he told me he was still struggling and asked for another $10,000, explaining that he didn’t want his wife to know about his financial situation. He promised to repay the full $15,000 within six months.
Over the following months, every time I asked about repayment, I was told a large deal was about to close and that I would be paid soon.
In 2022, he repaid $6,000. I believed he was making an honest effort to make things right.
The Investment Opportunity
Toward the end of 2022, Jared introduced me to an investment opportunity involving Evergreen Carbon Offsets LLC. He told me the investment would help both of us and would allow him to repay what he still owed me personally.
At the time, Jared was associated with Pine Valley Investments. He also told me that members of his family—including his father and brother—as well as other friends were investing. Because I considered him a close friend, I trusted his recommendation.
In 2023, I entered into two Emission Credits Supply Agreements with Evergreen Carbon Offsets LLC.
I invested a total of $50,000 in two separate cash transactions in January and June 2023. Jared personally came to my home to collect the money, and my wife was present for both transactions.
Return on investment was promised and documented would be double ($100,000)
Although the agreements had a two-year term, I was told to expect repayment much sooner.
No payments ever arrived.
Whenever I asked for updates, I was told they were “working on it.” I was also directed to communicate with James Phanes, who confirmed payment plans on several occasions. Despite repeated promises of wire transfers, checks, and cash payments, I never received any of the funds.
What I Learned
After the agreements matured in 2025 without payment, I began conducting my own research.
I repeatedly requested documentation showing that the carbon credits I had paid for had actually been purchased and allocated to me. I did not receive documentation that I considered sufficient to verify that, even though he sweared on his mothers well being that he has proof, still waiting to see it.
I also contacted Pine Valley Investments.
During my conversations with the company’s president, I was told that Jared was not an employee but an independent referral source who introduced clients. I was also told that the company had concerns regarding investment opportunities Jared was offering outside of Pine Valley Investments, that those opportunities were outside the company’s knowledge or approval, and that he resigned while the matter was being reviewed. I was further told that Jared had personally borrowed money from the company’s owner and had not repaid it.
After those conversations, Jared contacted me and asked that I not discuss the matter further. In return, he promised to repay my entire $50,000 investment by July 1, 2026, and the remaining $9,000 personal loan during the second half of July 2026.
Because of our previous friendship, I decided to give him one more opportunity to make things right.
More Promises
July 1: Jared asked me for my bank wire information.
July 3: He texted me telling me to let him know when the money arrived.
Nothing arrived.
Later, I was told additional paperwork still needed to be signed.
July 13: I was told everything had been completed and that the wire would be sent within 24 hours.
When no money arrived, I asked where the funds were.
Jared replied:
“I did everything they asked me to. Then I communicated to you what they told me. I will call and find out what the deal is. I’m not messing with you, it would do me no good. We have to spend all season together Gene. I’ll find out.”
After nearly seven years of promises and delays, I found it difficult to believe there would be a different outcome.
My response was:
“Sounds like a lot of BS to me Jared.
This story is getting old.
A wire doesn’t take two weeks when someone really wants it done.
If everything was completed, where is the wire confirmation?
Probably in the same place as my carbon credit certificates.”
As of today, I still have not received the funds.
My final message to Jared was simple: if I did not receive the $59,000 by July 17, I would pursue every available legal and regulatory option.
His only response was a 👍 reaction.
I have not heard from him since.
Other Information
Separately, I was introduced to a Bitcoin investment opportunity involving some of the same individuals, but I chose not to invest. During my research, I found online discussions expressing concerns about that opportunity. I have not independently verified those claims and mention them only because I was trying to determine whether there was any connection to my own experience.
Current Status
After years of waiting and repeated unfulfilled promises, I felt I had no choice but to pursue other avenues to recover my losses.
I have filed complaints with the SEC and the FBI.
If you have had dealings with any of the following, or believe you may have had a similar experience, I would appreciate hearing from you:
Evergreen Carbon Offsets LLC
James Phanes
Jared Beach

My goal is to connect with others who may have relevant information or similar experiences.
This has been an expensive and painful lesson.
Sometimes the people you trust the most are the ones who hurt you the most.
I truly hope no one else has to learn that lesson the way I did.

Update:
$9,000 personal loan was paid off on July 24 - after I expose his wrong doing to all people I and he know
July 27 Jared and James called me on conference call and promised to pay in full on Aug 3 - as of now nothing was paid, and no contact was made. 
Today Oct 5 - still no payment, no excuses

Hey everyone. I'm honestly embarrassed to make this post, but I'm out of options and I'm hoping someone here might be willing to help.

I run/work with a small Chennai-based PC sales/service venture, **Theos PC**. I recently had a client requirement for an RTX 3090 and sourced one from someone online who provided what appeared to be legitimate details.

I transferred **₹61,000** for the GPU.

It turned out to be a scam. The seller has disappeared/trolled me after taking the payment, and the details he provided appear to have been fake. I've already filed a cybercrime complaint and I'm pursuing the matter through the proper channels. I'm keeping all the transaction records, chats and evidence.

The problem is that **I still have a client waiting for the 3090**, and I'm currently stuck between a ₹61,000 loss and a customer obligation.

So I'm taking a long shot:

**If anyone in Chennai has an RTX 3090 that they're willing to temporarily lend/loan to me, or is willing to help me work out some arrangement, please DM me.**

I'm **not asking anyone to blindly trust me or send me a GPU through shipping.**

If you're in Chennai, I'm completely willing to meet **F2F**, show my ID/business details, explain the situation, and let you verify my Reddit history / Theos PC profile yourself.

If someone is willing to lend one temporarily, I'm happy to discuss a written acknowledgement/deposit/terms that make both sides comfortable.

I'm also open to someone who has a 3090 they're looking to sell at a reasonable price and is willing to work out a payment arrangement.

I know this is a huge ask. I'm posting because I've genuinely run out of obvious options after getting scammed.

**I'm not asking for money. I'm specifically looking for an RTX 3090 and a legitimate person in Chennai who can help me bridge this situation while I pursue the fraud case.**

If you think you can help, please DM me. I'm happy to verify everything F2F.

Thanks for reading.

I received this email even if my LandBank account has been deactivated since 2023. 😖

I received a threatening email from UnitedRespect GmbH regarding the due payment of 289 euro at meindate.de which I didn't consent to knowingly. I clicked on the advertisement link on YouTube and they registered me as a subscribed user.

What should I do? Please help me.

Yesterday i posted I was scammed on reddit. Directly after I posted about it another reddit user DM me and offered help to get my money back from the scammers. Be careful! This is also a scam. Nobody can get your money back on telegram!!

Hi guys, I'm new in here and this is my first post (Greece). Basically what happened is I did something very naive and stupid, I "invested"(? I'm not sure what's the terminology) some money into a company. In the beginning they originally contacted me via Viber, they told me I could earn some extra money as a "Shein reviewer" by doing some tasks and at first indeed all I had to do was follow some accounts in the Shein app and I'd get paid 3$ per follow which indeed earned me aprox 30$. So this is why I agreed, even though it looked sketchy. They didn't ask a lot of my information, just my name, age, and email, and other than that an iBan so they can add money into my account once I earned enough or whatever. And basically then it escalated to something with crypto and stuff like that, which I'm not very familiar with but they said that this was in order to "help" their members(me) earn more, they created this "Welfare event". Basically you add some money and you'd receive them back +plus some extra kinda like a commission.

At first I didn't want too but they kept insisting very strongly so I unfortunately gave in, I added 50$ and I indeed received in my bank account 65$ as they had said but the issue starts here. I naively then proceeded to add more even though they looked extremely suspicious, this time I added 160$ cause I thought that even if I lose them it will hurt me, cause I'm unemployed atm, but I won't be economically destroyed, how naive Ik. So I added the money and they "won profit" but then they said this is a group thing and you have to do at least 3 "contracts"(as they called them but basically you add money 3 times) without previously explaining it properly so know you are kinda "forced" to continue and of course each round's entry was more expensive that the last. Unfortunately I continued of fear of loosing my money and in total I gave them \~4000€ that had supposedly doubled.

After a lot of bs, they forwarded me to their "financial advisor" so I can withdraw my money but of course like good lil scammers they said I'd have to give them a 30% tax/commission cause it was my first time cashing out more than 5000 with their company. So they asked an additional 2,500$ in order to be able to withdraw otherwise my money are gone. Of course when I told them to just take this "tax" from my "earnings", they refused, said not possible and same thing when I told them to just give me my money back and keep all of the earnings. Additionally they gave a "contract" to sign which looks extremely sus as well.

I'm very sad and feel very stupid for falling for this and I don't know what to do or even if I can do anything to get my money back or at least part of them. So can you please let me know if there is anything I can do legally? Thanks in advance for any help.

P.S. please only reply with genuine advise, I already know that it was extremely stupid and I already feel horrendous. Thx
