I had the same problem with trousers 6 inches narrower in the waist than advertised. The only way of getting a refund was for me to incur the cost of the return. This was more than the total price that I paid. The problem was of their making, and from looking at the Facebook reviews, it was something that they were continually doing. They know that customers will not incur this extra cost. PayPal offered to contribute £15 towards the postage but it would hardly leave me with anything even if the company did refund the price of the trousers. Better to try and sell them on here to get a bit more back. They cynically scam customers and I am surprised that PayPal allow them to use their facilities to continue their criminal activities. Equally, Facebook should take action against them.

Type of a scam Online Purchase
This past Saturday I was on Facebook. Ads sponsored by Facebook for many companies selling N 95 masks appeared. I clicked on these ads and ended up making purchases from two different companies. They had Facebook pages which looked very legitimate, websites similar, phone numbers, addresses, etc. Everything seemed very legitimate. After confirming what I thought was their legitimacy, I make two purchases. The first purchase I made from was famous marketshop.com. I purchased Two "Breathable Brand New Advanced Masks Protector N 95" as well as a 10 piece filter and pat set. This order totaled $68.85 After this purchase I made another purchase two more masks totaling $46.42. After I made these purchases I received a text message confirming my order with a link to the website to monitor the order. It all seemed legitimate. Their number(s) [Removed. Phone #s not permitted]an[Removed. Phone #s not permitted] Both numbers are not real. They also have a number on their website which i[Removed. Phone #s not permitted]which is also a fake number not in service. Their email is <removed>. They do not respond to any emails to this address when you demand a refund. The have 3 fake Facebook pages:

I was scammed for a total of $111.27. I shortly after visited another Facebook ad from a company called Honest Crate aka Honest Crates. Their website is honest crate.com / honest crates.com. I purchased 3 "Natural shield" N 95 masks. They texted me confirmation from the fake number [Removed. Phone #s not permitted] This company did send me emails from <removed> claiming they were sending me my products. I exchanged emails with the name "Allison" who assured me my products were being processed and I needed to be patient. They even sent me a email with tracking information which led to a strange website m.17track.net, which appears to want to download some type of app onto my phone. The website with their licensing is" about.17 track .net/en/licensing. This says that the Peoples Republic of China controls this website. This is clearly Chinese intellectual espionage. I personally believe both websites are run by the same fraudulent company in the People's Republic of China as the websites are very similar in design. Both of these websites are accepting payments from major credit cards (Discover, Master card, Visa, American Express) and even Paypal. They claim "as seen on Fox News, CNN, ABC" clearly lying. This fake company has 3 Facebook pages:

This company uses the two fake addresses of <removed> as well as <removed> I have reported all six pages to Facebook several times and made posts on the pages alerting other consumers. I hope someone at the FTC will shut down these websites and find out from where these people are operating and not allow them to scam and steal from anymore American consumers. I can be reached at the contact information I provided. I have further information and screenshots about these fake companies operating online and possibly in America. PLEASE ACT AS SOON AS YOU CAN. THIS IS SERIOUS. China is using the National Emergency to steal and cheat American consumers. Please take action.
