Contact PayPal first, and if they can't help, contact your bank.

Is Supply Definition a Scam? Review of the Online Store
an anonymous user from: Niagara Falls, Ontario, Canada

Thanks to this site I know that I was scammed by supplydefinition too. I have not received my printer. I called my credit card company and they said I have to wait 45 days to give the company time to make good. What a joke. I told them it is for sure a scam and it didn't matter. So I will have to wait at least 2 months for a refund.

Also, I just googled the same printer and another ad came up at the right side for the same price 123.99 at "goodsinstore.com". So I looked into this website and I believe it is also a scam. The address does not exist. It looks like the Supply Definition site. When I looked up the address there was also another site with the same address called "megatopgoods.com". The address on that site is now different and it is also fake. So there are at least 2 more scam sites still running and probably run by the same people.

My Father recently ordered a kegerator from here. We are about to launch a PayPal investigation for a return of the funds.

When I asked PayPal to look into it on the grounds of suspected fraud, PayPal got back to me in less than 24 hours with a statement that said, essentially, "Our investigation concluded that there was no fraud. It's all good."

Which is bogus. I filed my request (for investigation) late on a Sunday night when nobody at PayPal was working or answering phones or messages or anything. There's no way that they launched and completed a proper investigation within less than 24 hours——not to mention, if they HAD, they would have found what WE eventually all discovered!

I was not impressed.

"I'd like to share my experience with the aforementioned online store which is a fraud. I recently ordered an item on sale - Weber charcoal grill. The payment was made thru Paypal & was received by an individual - David Monroe not the store. I did some follow up but never got a response except for the online invoice (see attached). Everything about this site looks legit with items on sale & contact information provided. But after checking, I noticed the business address looks suspicious & non-existent. Nobody responds at this Phone#.

By chance, I came across your site sharing the same fraud event that I experienced. My case is now being disputed with Paypal. Hopefully, I will get my refund back.

Cheers!

Roehl"

This place doesn't exist. The phone is dead, the address is essentially a bunch of grass in the middle of an Edmonton boulevard somewhere, and any money you send goes to a PayPal account owned by an individual with a Vietnamese name. I specify that detail only because (a) some of the writing on the site seemed off to me, and (b) it suggests the possibility that the person or party running the scam is not even in the country.

Also—and this really should have clicked in my head a lot sooner—while there is certainly such a thing as free shipping even for large and heavy items (Amazon and others do it all the time), whenever the shipping is NOT free, it is NEVER just two dollars and ninety-nine cents to ship an APPLIANCE.

This place was offering to ship the washing machine I'd bought (like an idiot) for $2.99 . . . or $9.99 if I wanted it within four days.

As soon as I got the confirmation e-mail, I knew I'd been scammed. Fortunately, I got my money back.

It is absolutely DISGUSTING what some people will do to swindle innocent targets.

Online Threat Alerts Security Tips

Pay the safest way

Credit cards are the safest way to pay for online purchases because you can dispute the charges if you never get the goods or services or if the offer was misrepresented. Federal law limits your liability to $50 if someone makes unauthorized charges to your account, and most credit card issuers will remove them completely if you report the problem promptly.

Guard your personal information

In any transaction you conduct, make sure to check with your state or local consumer protection agency and the Better Business Bureau (BBB) to see if the seller, charity, company, or organization is credible. Be especially wary if the entity is unfamiliar to you. Always call the number found on a website’s contact information to make sure the number legitimately belongs to the entity you are dealing with.

Be careful of the information you share

Never give out your codes, passwords or personal information, unless you are sure of who you're dealing with

Know who you’re dealing with

Crooks pretending to be from companies you do business with may call or send an email, claiming they need to verify your personal information. Don’t provide your credit card or bank account number unless you are actually paying for something and know who you are sending payment to. Your social security number should not be necessary unless you are applying for credit. Be especially suspicious if someone claiming to be from a company with whom you have an account asks for information that the business already has.

Check your accounts

Regularly check your account transactions and report any suspicious or unauthorised transactions.

Don’t believe promises of easy money

If someone claims that you can earn money with little or no work, get a loan or credit card even if you have bad credit, or make money on an investment with little or no risk, it’s probably a scam. Oftentimes, offers that seem too good to be true, actually are too good to be true.

Do not open email from people you don’t know

If you are unsure whether an email you received is legitimate, try contacting the sender directly via other means. Do not click on any links in an email unless you are sure it is safe.

Think before you click

If an email or text message looks suspicious, don’t open any attachments or click on the links.

Verify urgent requests or unsolicited emails, messages or phone calls before you respond

If you receive a message or a phone call asking for immediate action and don't know the sender, it could be a phishing message.

Be careful with links and new website addresses

Malicious website addresses may appear almost identical to legitimate sites. Scammers often use a slight variation in spelling or logo to lure you. Malicious links can also come from friends whose email has unknowingly been compromised, so be careful.

Secure your personal information

Before providing any personal information, such as your date of birth, Social Security number, account numbers, and passwords, be sure the website is secure.

Stay informed on the latest cyber threats

Keep yourself up to date on current scams by visiting this website daily.

Use Strong Passwords

Strong passwords are critical to online security.

Keep your software up to date and maintain preventative software programs

Keep all of your software applications up to date on your computers and mobile devices. Install software that provides antivirus, firewall, and email filter services.

Update the operating systems on your electronic devices

Make sure your operating systems (OSs) and applications are up to date on all of your electronic devices. Older and unpatched versions of OSs and software are the target of many hacks. Read the CISA security tip on Understanding Patches and Software Updates for more information.

What if You Got Scammed?

Stop Contact With The Scammer

Hang up the phone. Do not reply to emails, messages, or letters that the scammer sends. Do not make any more payments to the scammer. Beware of additional scammers who may contact you claiming they can help you get your lost money back.

Secure Your Finances

  • Report potentially compromised bank account, credit or debit card information to your financial institution(s) immediately. They may be able to cancel or reverse fraudulent transactions.
  • Notify the three major credit bureaus. They can add a fraud alert to warn potential credit grantors that you may be a victim of identity theft. You may also want to consider placing a free security freeze on your credit report. Doing so prevents lenders and others from accessing your credit report entirely, which will prevent them from extending credit:

Check Your Computer

If your computer was accessed or otherwise affected by a scam, check to make sure that your anti-virus is up-to-date and running and that your system is free of malware and keylogging software. You may also need to seek the help of a computer repair company. Consider utilizing the Better Business Bureau’s website to find a reputable company.

Change Your Account Passwords

Update your bank, credit card, social media, and email account passwords to try to limit further unauthorized access. Make sure to choose strong passwords when changing account passwords.

Report The Scam

Reporting helps protect others. While agencies can’t always track down perpetrators of crimes against scammers, they can utilize the information gathered to record patterns of abuse which may lead to action being taken against a company or industry.

Report your issue to the following agencies based on the nature of the scam:

  • Local Law Enforcement: Consumers are encouraged to report scams to their local police department or sheriff’s office, especially if you lost money or property or had your identity compromised.
  • Federal Trade Commission: Contact the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) at 1-877-FTC-HELP (1-877-382-4357) or use the Online Complaint Assistant to report various types of fraud, including counterfeit checks, lottery or sweepstakes scams, and more.
  • Identitytheft.gov: If someone is using your personal information, like your Social Security, credit card, or bank account number, to open new accounts, make purchases, or get a tax refund, report it at www.identitytheft.gov. This federal government site will also help you create your Identity Theft Report and a personal recovery plan based on your situation. Questions can be directed to 877-ID THEFT.

How To Recognize a Phishing Scam

Scammers use email or text messages to try to steal your passwords, account numbers, or Social Security numbers. If they get that information, they could get access to your email, bank, or other accounts. Or they could sell your information to other scammers. Scammers launch thousands of phishing attacks like these every day — and they’re often successful.

Scammers often update their tactics to keep up with the latest news or trends, but here are some common tactics used in phishing emails or text messages:

Phishing emails and text messages often tell a story to trick you into clicking on a link or opening an attachment. You might get an unexpected email or text message that looks like it’s from a company you know or trust, like a bank or a credit card or utility company. Or maybe it’s from an online payment website or app. The message could be from a scammer, who might

  • say they’ve noticed some suspicious activity or log-in attempts — they haven’t
  • claim there’s a problem with your account or your payment information — there isn’t
  • say you need to confirm some personal or financial information — you don’t
  • include an invoice you don’t recognize — it’s fake
  • want you to click on a link to make a payment — but the link has malware
  • say you’re eligible to register for a government refund — it’s a scam
  • offer a coupon for free stuff — it’s not real
