Vibrant Threads Premium Outfitters Premium Outfitters Store Cody Emsky Felicia Vos Credit Card Number Grab Scam - fake clothing orders to get card information Prince George British Columbia
Cody Emsky and Felicia Vos collectively have operated various websites that use targeted Facebook Ads to put on sale what look to be fantastic fashion items.
Up to early November, this was VibrantThreadsstore.com and then in early November, they switched over to Premium Outfitters Store (with 2 facebook pages) PremiumOutfittersStore.com.
What they do is quite simple. Put up fake goods for sale. Obtain your credit card information and charge it immediately. Then they look to cycle emails with you for 90 days to explain why the order never arrives. In the meantime, your ability to dispute the charge with your credit card company times out, and they simply close the website, start a new one and cycle through again and keep your money.
They also failed to use proper Whois cloaking for Privacy so are very easy to track down.
If for some reason you find this report and you are still within 30 days of your order,
1- Immediately contact your credit card company and initiate a charge back for non-delivery of goods - the more reports credit card companies get on these folks the easier it will be to blacklist them at the banks back end to stop them having merchant accounts/bank accounts.
2 - You may for safety wish to cancel your card and get a reissue with a new number.
3 - If you used a debit card (never do this for internet shopping!) report to your bank as well. Individuals like this may be doing wider activities such as money laundering so the more banks get reports, the more suspicious activity reports go through to the government/authorities.
4- Report them to the police as well, their current location appears to be in Canada (not the US) so for the 30 minutes phone call it will take to the local station it will be worth it as again the more reports the police receive the more likely they will take this into a full criminal investigation. You can explain it's a Wire Fraud report and provide them the website information, amount paid and information.
5 - Report them to Facebook as they are running Ads with the sole intention to commit Wire Fraud. Facebook can then block them from future activities.
I got my money back from my credit card company as I caught them within 10 days, so I hope this helps other people who have been defrauded.

So if this is the case (note I got my money back from AMEX who agreed you ARE a fraud just fyi).
- Name of this so called third party company and contact names - please list here including their address, directors, and all other identifying information
- List Order Numbers you are refunding and date to expect them by - please list here
- Are you prepared to speak to the police to confirm your story (I have reported you as many others have who you defrauded) and if so please confirm the police report number here, date, officer name and badge number whom took the report.
If not, sorry more lies - wire fraud is a serious matter, in Canada as well as the US. You will end up with a criminal record at this rate!

I am not a scammer

Ok, there are many many pissed off people. I want to clear this up. I had an online business, selling clothing. I had a supplier, who scammed me. I was unaware at the time, as they were sending out fake tracking numbers, so they'd appear shipped, but didn't actually send anything. I would really like to apologize to everyone who was a victim. I don't know what to do, but I want to refund everyone who didn't receive their goods. I am NOT a scammer! I am in a total nightmare.
