Item I did not order, Tumwater, WA, USA

1 week ago reported by user-rbpx4239 details

A ring I did not order came to me I believe in place of the MANY items I ordered through Pandeous. It’s a scam. I emailed them and they did respond I got a response back on my package. Items originally order 5/13/24. Today is 6/23/24.

Received a package I did not order from JERRY(001)-YASFBARA, 9208 Charles Smith Ave. RANCHO CUCAMONGA, CA 91730. Assuming they will make a fake review of an item I did not order, but not the item they sent. Cheap bracelets or hair ties. They are going in the garage.
