Lol i was just scammed out of 100 bucks

Dj Tanner, on March 18, 2021 at 9:17 AM Posted in Planning 0 11
So like an idiot I fell for a scam website. Bought a decor couch for the wedding for an unrealistic price of $99. I found it through Google and select and compare prices for the couch. Needless to say immediately after I placed the order I instantly regretted it and I’m almost positive it’s a scam. Like 99% LOL. This is what happens when you don’t sleep all night thinking about the wedding!Lol i was just scammed out of 100 bucks 1

    My fiancé is so sweet to me. Anytime I do stupid things like this he’s always so understanding and he just laughs. Especially when I showed him the site. Lol! He was like you fell for this?! The links to their social media don’t even work lol! I just feel bad because it’s just another hundred dollars more that could’ve gone to the wedding that I now foolishly threw down the drain. I’m just gonna go to home goods and buy a couch in person. I am so sick of this Internet garbage purchasing stuff you don’t even know what you’re going to get in!

    Do a stop payment on your credit card.

    Yeah I reached out to my bank immediately after and they said that I can only file a fraudulent dispute, but it has to be filed after the payment processes. I mean to be honest I’m not even entirely worried about my bank account because the scammers used PayPal, so at least my information is secure. I never do things like this! I was just so impulsive this morning! Lack of sleep. In my head I’m just trying to justify it and pretend as if I’m not the worlds biggest dummy LOL. My venue wanted to charge me about $600 to rent a couch for five hours, so if I can find another small bench couch for 100 bucks in store, then I’m just trying to view it as I’m still saving hah.

    Oh girl! Thanks for the info! I hate it when I do stupid crap like that!
    We just have our final headcount last Friday (wedding is on 4/3/21) & on Monday I started working on the seating chart. It was 5am & I’m working away when I realized I didn’t account for 10 people! That’s a whole table! I had to wait 3 hours before he woke up & in that time I’m freaking out! In my head I just knew he was going to be angry & yell at me! When I told him all he said was “well I’m not happy but we’ll just call the venue & tell them.” Really? In my head I had you yelling at me! Lol! Funny thing is he NEVER yells at me!

    Aww man . . . we've all had what I call "Bride Brain." I've been married for 2 months now and I'm still recovering (it still shows up sometimes). LOL! And look at the bright side, although that $100 could have been used elsewhere and is probably lost now, at least you didn't spend and lose even MORE money.

    So true! And who knows there’s still that 1% chance that it’s a legit site and I may get my couch in… But I’m not holding my breath 😂

    If you live in a suburban-ish area, hopefully some yard/garage sales might pop up and you could find something there!

    Yeah I was thinking about that too! I looked at craigslist the other day and they were selling these rattan swivel chairs for 30 bucks a piece. I don’t go to yard sales ever but I’ll definitely check them out now that’s a good idea
