I ordered from your company buzzbgone on the 25/1/23 for $76.16. I haven't heard anything about my order, I can't track it òr find out about it any where. The money has been taken out of my bank so if nothing is done soon I will have to take things further.

I ordered a BuzzBGone two months ago and only get order confirmations. This product and online vendor seems to be a huge SCAM, Don't fall for it as I have. The tracking number they sent me is 34 characters long, is this a hint that's something fishy. Ken in California

I have purchased 2buzzBgone for I think over a month. I got the confirmation or they did get the payment of 2. I fell for the advertisement because here in the country have lots of mosquitoes and I'm allergic to them. Lesson Learned. Please do not do any further purchase with BUZZBGONEINTHEWINDSCAM

Total fraud...ordered online, billed immediately, never confirmed, never delivered, no satisfactory response. End result, disputed charge and requested credit. Buyer Beware!

My experience is not about the product but with the process of getting to ordering the product. The constant up sells were so bad I never was able to get to the end with out buying multiple product you don't want. Needlessly to say I made an order that I never processed they did it with out my permission once they had my info Buzzbgone processed my order and took my money out of paypal. I tried to cancel the order but no one will contact me back. This is the part Im not happy about they have made it impossible to get a return. Not happy at all !!!!!

Hi, I know its been a long time since the last post but just to give an update on my outcome, I stupidly fell for the advertising(all be it with a few beers in me) and ordered 2, when they finally arrived they were as you all mentioned totally useless, I contact them via email and they offered 30% refund that I nicely turned down and asked for a full refund, they send me the return address and I posted back to Hong Kong, that was over 2 months ago and I can see by the tracking number that it was not delivered and is back in Australia, then out of the blue they emailed me asking if I have posted back as they have not received them. I did a bit of internet detective work and found this blog, after reading all your comments I jumped on to PayPal to lodge a complaint and refund(see below what I send) 2 mins after lodging they refunded me, thanks all for your help and hope you all got a bit of luck and got your money back
Cheers

Your notes
Hi, I am sure you have had multiple complaints about this company, PayPal needs to remove themselves as a payment option for such a scam, I received the items that are not fit for purpose and returned them in October but have yet to receive a refund, can PayPal please refund me ASAP ... Kind Regards Grant

upon trying to order the site offers the use of PayPal to make a payment but paper after It tries to login it flashes a message that states that buzz b gone Is not currently excepting payments from PayPal. This is the first website that Advertised payment by PayPal but when attempted PayPal appears to have refused the transaction.

garbage, very cheaply made, and I new better but fell for it, mosquitos aren't attracted to light so don't waste your money...

This mosquito trap is worthless. After three days plugged in outside we only had a few small bugs - no mosquitos. Our property is overrun with mosquitoes and was hoping for some relief but not so with these devices. I tried calling the number that appears on my charge but this is a bogus number. I checked their website hoping to find an address or valid phone number but to no avail. This is obviously a scam and I hope this prevents some people from ordering this product.

This is a useless piece of plastic. I used it outside (even let it run overnight) and it only caught 2 small moths. Yet, I got eaten alive when I sat in the same area as the device. I have emailed twice, called and tried to 'chat' with them for a refund and have not received a response. Next step will be the BBB.

Yes, I had very similar experience with Buzz B Gone like everyone above. They actually sent me two totally fake cheap mosquito traps, which don't cost more than $7 each and don't even work at all! They haven't attracted a single mosquito, while we have been fighting with hundreds of them on our patio! I was asked to pay $95 for the two useless mosquito traps. I wrote back to Buzz B Gone and asked for my money back, but they didn't respond first and then offered me a 20% off. I told them I'm in the 30 day money back guarantee period and I haven't heard back from them since then. I plan on filing a dispute through PayPal. Hopefully, I can get my money back.
This company is a complete scam and it looks like they are paying a lot of money for advertisements and posts at many trusted websites, so they can attract more people. Don't buy anything from this company! It is a money trap not a mosquito trap!

Lysol wipes scam site still up and running. Site that scammed me is lysol99.com. I ordered lysol wipes from what appears to be a legitimate site but its a scam. I received a order confirmation and invoice but that was the last correspondence. I received email from jenniferrod848-gmail.com when I requested a tracking number to track my order. The email response only said the my order was being prepared for shipment. The following day my account was charged for the total amount by a company named Harrington Insurance Company Florida thats when I knew for sure that I had been scammed.

My husband ended up with a $100.93 charge from BuzzbGone. We received 4 units in July and another 4 in August. I have tried to reach them repeatedly but NO response to the email. No phone listed that I can call. However, they promise NO HASSLE RETURNS. If anyone knows how to get in touch with this company, please reply to this comment.

On 8/12 BuzzBGone sent me an email stating the item shipped on 8/6. They provided a tracking link.

Tracking link said there was no tracking info.

Tried contacting the company via email twice. No response.

I do not have much confidence in PayPal, as they did not refund my money on another fraudulent transaction. PayPal initially refunded my money, then they changed their minds and charged me for it, without the special financing I originally had. Hopefully they will provide better service to me for this time.

I filled out an order but didnt complete transaction.they sent me a text that the order dint go through. I checked and they had changed the price from 39.95 to 59.95, so I didnt order. They went ahead and charged me for two of them and sent two. They are junk. Mailfraud. Talking to a lawyer.

I purchased 2 buzz b-gone insect zappers. What I received in the mail are 2 boxes that say mosquito UV trap, not a name brand. The bottom of it says " name: mosquito lamp". Nowhere on the packaging does it say "Buzz b-gone".

I never received the package. One (1) month later. I can't get a hold on the company online or by phone. Getting ahold of my credit card company to dispute the charge. Buzz B Gone looks to be a scam.

Product doesn't even draw in smoke. 4 days I was eaten alive by bugs. There wasn't anything inside at all. They give you the runaround trying to get refund. Warning, It's a lie.

I had ordered two outdoor fold chairs that rock and was sent these nylon rope hammocks.
This so called company wants me to send pictures of tracking number and products received but gives no way to email pictures. I paid a little over twenty dollars and they offer me back $5.00.
Second time this has been done. About the same time I ordered and paid for a prototype hand cart that supposedly did more and I was sent a nail manicure set and an airbag gadget.
I am still going to try sending pictures but to you because it is all a tantalizing scam.
Also about same time I ordered and paid for am office chair that folds out into a bed...can't wait to see what piece of junk they send for that!
