I WAS SCAMMED | NOT ONCE BUT TWICE - NOT CLICKBAIT

I appreciate everyone telling me to contact my CC company and PayPal but I did not pay that way. I’ve all ready called my bank and there is nothing I can do. This is why I said I didn’t need advice on what I should do. I’ve looked into my options all ready. Thank you for understanding ❤

Melissa, I am so sorry this happened to you. Please don't feel ashamed. You believed you were purchasing beautiful authentic bags. Thank you for being brave and sharing this with us. I know it must not have been easy but it will truly help people.

It’s one thing to knowingly buy a fake but it’s totally another to pay for an authentic piece and be sent an inauthentic bag - that is misrepresentation and theft. I’m sorry this happened to you, it’s not on you, but I understand how you feel.

I feel sick for you, that is really an awful feeling to be scammed. Good for you for sharing the names! The blocking of you shows guilt IMO. You have nothing to apologize for, they do!!

I’m sorry I sounds nasally in this video. I’m trying not to cry and let my emotions get the best of me. Once I get both bags authenticated I will probably do an updated video letting you guys know the outcome. Thank you for watching.

That's a shame and I am so sorry you went thru this. People like this are so scummy. It's one thing to know that you are buying a bag that is a fake and it's a whole other thing to be deceived and have hard earned money basically stolen from you when you buy one that's suppose to be authentic.

Baby Girl! I just got scammed last week! I’ve been scammed more times than I can count. I would file a claim with my card or PayPal (however you bought it) on that Dauphine. It’s not your fault. Unscrupulous people are to blame! Hold your head up high, this happens to even the most savvy luxury lover! ❤❤❤❤❤

Deception is the worst. I’m sorry this happened to you. It’s so hard nowadays to know the real from the fake.

Of all the people in the world going through this I absolutely HATE that this happened to you!!! I am SO GLAD these luxury houses are adding chips to the bags to help with this kind of thing. That company should have immediately refunded your money and arranged for a return. If this was unknown to them as well because the fake game is so good now, then they have nothing to be ashamed of. Even big houses like FashionPhile & TheRealReal have been duped. But if they did this intentionally, shame on them. I am so very sorry you were taken advantage of my friend. 😢 PLEASE don’t feel foolish. You trusted a reseller to do what they said they do, sell authentic bags. This is not you!!! It’s on THEM!!!! ❤

It’s not your fault Melissa, this could happen to any of us! In fact I’ve been scammed twice on Ebay way before I started my channel. Thats why I don’t buy Luxury on EBay. I am so sorry this happened to you and admire your courage to tell us. I hope the second bag is authentic!! Don’t be ashamed, you have done nothing wrong. I feel so sad for you and I hope they make it right!!! 😢

I am so, so very sorry this happened to you! 😢 I can 100% understand feeling that you were violated or something was stolen from you, I think that’s completely justifiable. I too am also afraid to buy preloved after so many stories like this, which is so unfortunate. If you find a reputable company to do your authentications, please let us know! Thanks again for you sharing your experience - while difficult, it’s also helpful to everyone to hear.

Can you give us some info on what the authenticators said? What gives it away that they are not authentic? Thank you for sharing. This is a great warning for the rest of us who enjoys buying pre loved.

So sorry that this happened to you! I actually wanted to cry myself just watching the video. I’m glad you named and shamed the boutique because their behavior of blocking you is pretty strong evidence of their guilt. Getting scammed can happen to anyone, anywhere, so don’t feel so embarrassed. I was nearly scammed in a phone scam situation a few months ago before I figured out what they were trying to do. I consider myself to be relatively savvy and well-educated, but scammers are relentless in all contexts. 😢

Oh no. I’m so sorry, Melissa. It’s devastating being scammed. Shame on them!!!

Melissa first off wow I’m sooo sorry. That’s a lot of money and you just don’t do that to people. So many awful people are out there. Tfs 😢

So sorry this has happened to you, completely get that this is devastating, so awful for you 💕

Melissa, there is no need to ask for forgiveness that is not necessary. I am so sorry for what you are going through. You may remember I just went through this with the Coach Quilted tabby and I absolutely understand how you. I am so so sorry. 😞 TFS 🛍️🚢👛🙏🦆

Melissa I am so sorry I cannot believe this. The bag really looks like a great fake unfortunately it would’ve been hard to know ESPECIALLY with proof of authenticity sent to you. I will spread the word on this company. I am so sorry, you didn’t do anything with poor integrity. Thank you for bravely sharing ❤

This is awful! I’m so sorry Melissa. You shouldn’t feel embarrassed as you did what you could to protect yourself at the time. Well done for sharing your experience as it will help others. These type of horror stories always worry me re pre loved purchases. So sorry x

I’m so sorry you had to go through this. 💕
