Additional Information for HUNDO, LLC

BBB conducted an investigation based on a recent Scam Tracker report concerning delivery issues. The consumer alleges they have not received products ordered and paid for from this online retailer.

“I stumbled across this supposed embroidery website owned by a "former marine" from a linkedin "people you may know" type recommendation: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jon-connolly-80071336/. I ordered 2 towels with different designs on them for which I paid approximately $50 total. When they didn't arrive after two weeks, the advertised delivery time, I contacted him via the "contact us" feature on the website. When he emailed me a week later, I was told that I must wait 30 days before reporting it as not delivered. However, two weeks later when I got around to sending a follow up, I was told that it was passed the 30 day refund period and there was nothing he could do. I should have trusted my initial suspicions when the payment methods available were venmo and paypal and no sales tax was charged. :(”
Per whois.com, the business website was mostly recently updated on 4/23/2024 and the owner’s information has been redacted for privacy.
This business only accepts payment through PayPal and Venmo.

Scammers have found a way to use these apps, using variations on old schemes tailored to the new technology.

Peer-to-peer payment services allow users to send money to each other from an app on their mobile device. These services use a linked bank account or credit or debit card. However, unlike more traditional banking systems, many payment apps will not shoulder the cost of fraud. This means that someone who paid scammers using one of these services may not be successful in getting the company to reimburse them for their losses to the fraud.
