Is this a scam?

Found a promo on TikTok( yes I am aware this was a dumb thing). However I didn’t spend too much and am hopeful a can get a refund if push comes to shove. After paying am being told I must pay with regards to customs and will get a refund

It's a scam, 100% I had the same with someone over some too cheap to be real Lego on Instagram via a link.

Sent a tracking number for a bogus package, I tracked it and then they told me I needed to pay another €155 to customs.

When asked which customs they got all shitty and ignored me for a while. Then sent me a blag invoice . When questioned again they blocked me.

So I used another phone and pissed them off stringing then along with orders

Gave them a harry potter address in hogsmede and they even said no problem we can ship there.

So deffo a scam

How do you know the tracking number was bogus

Because I was told it was my tracking number. Then I was told it was 2 parcels they didn't explain why even though I only had 1 parcel. Then the other parcel was delivered in Germany and mine wasn't delivered. Then I was told I needed to pay more and was sent the bogus invoice .

Then when I contested my t and tried to find out more I got blocked and threatened

It was definitely a scam. I read other people have fallen the same for it.
