My Online Purchases

Tweet

I posted few months ago about my online purchase that turned out to be a scam site. It looked legit because it is bearing the known shoe store here in my country. After sending the order and the payment, I noticed that the url is not the actual shop's URL. Immediately requested help from my bank. I got the refund. And yes, I got an email from this scam site asking me to request refund cancellation from my bank because the order is already in transit. No, I did not request for the refund to be canceled. If you want to read about it - I shared the link here. So far, I already ordered 3 shoes online. 2 from overseas and 1 local. My first order was from Anta in China on October 11, 2024. I got the package on October 17, 2024. That's only 6 days shipping time. My second order was from a local shop (Toby's -- same name of that scam copy-cat website. But this time it's the real one), because they were on sale online so I did not go to the physical store. I order Adidas size 10. When it arrived after 2 days, I realized that size 10 is too big for me. Well, Nike's 10 is not the same as Adidas' 10. Yeah, my Nike is 10 and it fits me well. Maybe because of the type of shoes. I returned it and I got a refund in a form of voucher. I can use it anytime for online purchase. I am planning to use it maybe after a couple of months. Will wait for a sale. My third order was from Anta in China again. I ordered it this March 8 and I got it on March 14th. I am glad that these stores are legit. But this time, I did not use my card, I selected the COD method.
