Damnit. Why didn’t I think to google reviews. I spend all day on the phone dealing with stupid insurance companies, I really don’t feel like contacting this place to figure out where my shit is... but... I probably should. I would just send a couple of emails. If they don't respond then go to PayPal. For $25 I would want my money back but I wouldn't put too much time and effort into getting it. So I'd do the least just to show that I did try to contact them and then I would let PayPal handle it. I tried to buy a sweater from an ad I saw on IG last fall. It was only $15, but after the confirmation email I didn't hear anything from them. After 3 weeks I Googled them and realized they were a scam. I probably could have tried to contact them but the $15 wasn't worth the time or effort for me. I think it's actually pretty easy to get scammed. These ads show up on IG and FB, so you would think they are reputable, but I guess apparently anyone can put ads on social media. Yup I just went down the wormhole. My goodness I am naive. Apparently there are TONS of scams and most online reviews are BS.

But this still sucks overall. Don't feel bad though, I literally just did this same exact thing a few months ago.
