Online shopping scams are as frequent as legitimate online stores. Below are direct, unedited reports from consumers of their own experiences. If you have follow-up to either substantiate or rebut an experience below or your own story to add, please tell us about it ! State Attorney General's offices received complaints involving purchase made through internet, telephone or mail, about late deliveries or products never delivered. Other scams involve the purchases of appliances, furniture and other items in which there have been warranty problems, defective products that either did not work as advertised or were never delivered. Consumers also report products not always ringing up at price advertised when they checked out at the register. Other retail related complaints included issues with rebates, coupons, and gift cards.
The internet isn't the only place where you can be scammed. Brick-and-mortar stores, shopping malls, the grocery store, Wal-Mart, and other shopping areas are also places where criminals operate their scams.
