"SCAM ALLERT!!!!!!
Newport Beach businesses and residential! Has anyone encountered this man and being scammed by him? He claims his name is Roy, an Asian man, claiming to be a new business owner in the area of high end jeans. “M7” is apparently the name of his business in Newport Beach area. His phone number is 310-418-0783.
He came into my business yesterday claiming to be promoting his business and wanting to give us a deal on his jeans in return we send him business. Well, I’m a huge supporter of local businesses so I sat with him and let him do his spiel. He showed me 4 pairs of jeans he had. And if I purchased any He would charge me only half price. I purchased 2 pairs (Hudson & Rag & Bone) for $275 in which I zelled him to his phone number which he gave me. We texted our contacts and I saw this was his true number. So I paid him and he gave me the jeans all with his word that if they didn’t fit he’d come back to pick them up and refund me the $$$. ( I couldn’t try on because I was at work)
I went home , tried them on, they didn’t fit so I called him and he came by to pick up the jeans. Well he promised to refund me and when he left I knew something was off. He texted me claiming he never received the deposit into his account. I called my bank and confirmed the transaction went through to that number and it came out of my account. I texted him screen shots of this transaction as proof that it was paid. He continues to say he will not pay me for something he didn’t receive and that he never got it. I’m so sad that I’ve been taken for.
Was wondering if anyone has had this experience or knew of this person.? He was going around to local businesses yesterday , Tuesday 2-20-24. Please let me know or if anyone has any ideas on how to get my money back I’d greatly appreciate it. Please don’t be fooled like I was by this man. He is a liar and can’t be trusted !!!!!!!!!! Please help if you can. Thank you !!!!!!!
(I made a claim with my bank but because it was my naive, gullible, and trusting self, I do not believe they will credit my account. I will know for-sure in 7-10 business days but I’m pretty sure I lost $275. Which is a lot for me to just let go of and do nothing about.)
