Scamming - Fraud
There is a Balsam Hill scam advertisement on Facebook claiming there are Balsam Hill trees on flash sale. I called Balsam Hill and they verify that it is a scam. The safest place to order your Halloween, Christmas, or seasonal decoration is at their legit website located at www.balsamhill.com. If you have been scammed by a website, you may open a dispute with your bank, PayPal, or other financial institutions to have your money refunded.
