My wife and I got scammed recently via an Instagram ad.

She saw the ad on Instagram (I don't use Instagram) for a product.

I went to the website, looked ok. I made the mistake of not checking the domain. If I did I would have seen the trust pilot bad reviews.

I ordered the product, paid AUD$77 via Paypal.

The website sent me tracking info via tracking-hub.com - after about a month of these dodgy looking emails, I looked up tracking-hub.com and lo and behold, trust pilot reviews indicate this is a known fake scam tracking website.

I've initiated a Paypal dispute to try to get a refund. At least these scammers don't have my direct credit card.

So if the seller sends you tracking information via tracking-hub.com, know that you've been scammed.
