Mystery Boxes Beware of Mystery Boxes Scam: My Disappointing Experience

I can't believe I fell for this Mystery Boxes scam. I should have known better, but I guess I'm just one of those stupid consumers they take advantage of. This site needs to be shut down before they can scam anyone else.

When I received my box, all the items were just thrown in there haphazardly. I could hear everything rattling around in the small box, and I knew it wasn't going to be good. And I was right. I got a useless cell phone case, some hexlights, cheap headphones, and a garbage watch that probably sells for $19.99. What a waste of money.

I guess I learned my lesson, but it still stings. I feel so damn stupid right now. I gave them one star, but honestly, they can do whatever they want with it. I just hope other people don't make the same mistake I did.

Mystery Boxes Disappointing Experience with Mystery Boxes: Only One Defective Item Received and Poor Customer Service

I recently decided to try out Mystery Boxes, a website that offers a variety of mystery boxes filled with random items. I opted for the small size mystery box, which cost me $36.86 plus an additional transaction fee of about $2.66. According to the website, the package should have included 5 random items.

However, when I received my package, I was extremely disappointed. I only received one item, which was a pair of wired earphones that were priced at only 2.5 USD on their own package. To make matters worse, the earphones were defective and didn't work at all.

I immediately contacted the seller to explain the situation and request a refund. However, they were very unhelpful and gave me a lot of excuses. They didn't want to refund my money or pay for the return of the defective item, even though they claim on their website that they offer a full refund with no questions asked if the client is not satisfied (as shown in one of the pictures I included).

Overall, I was extremely disappointed with my experience with Mystery Boxes. I was especially disappointed because the ad for the website popped up on a very reputable social media platform, which made me think that it was a trustworthy and reliable website. Unfortunately, that was not the case. I would not recommend this website to anyone looking for a fun and exciting mystery box experience.

Mystery Boxes Unboxing the Mystery: A Review of mystery-boxes.com

I have to admit, I am a sucker for those mystery boxes you see advertised all over the internet. I stumbled across mystery-boxes.com and decided to give it a try. At first, I was a little skeptical, but my curiosity got the best of me and I hit that order button.

When my box finally arrived, I couldn't wait to dive in and see what treasures awaited me. I was pleasantly surprised with the variety of items in my box - everything from makeup to gadgets to snacks. It was really exciting to have that element of surprise and not know what I was going to get.

That being said, I have read some reviews that mention the quality of the items in the box being hit or miss. I can see how that could be a concern, but I think it's important to remember that you are taking a gamble with these mystery boxes. Sometimes you win big and other times you might be disappointed.

One thing I will say is that I did have some trouble getting in touch with customer service when I had a question about my order. It took a few days for me to get a response, which was a little frustrating. But overall, I had a positive experience with mystery-boxes.com.

All in all, I think mystery boxes can be a fun way to treat yourself or someone else to a little surprise. Just make sure you do your research and don't get scammed by any fake websites or misleading Facebook ads (we've all been there). Happy unboxing!

Mystery Boxes Beware of Mystery-Box Scams: My Experience with mystery-boxes.com and Computer Game Advertising

It was pretty naive of me to believe mystery-boxes.com. Over a year of waiting and still nothing to show for the $60 I dished out. It's a shame really, considering they got me through advertisements on SCRABBLE GO. I would say avoid all advertising on computer games for future reference.

To make matters worse, I also fell for the company that advertised a $1200 laptop for only $99, plus shipping. That was a year ago, and look at me now, still waiting. I will never again fall victim to these types of scams.

My advice, steer clear of these advertisements. Don't waste your time or money. Stick to reputable stores when shopping online, and don't let yourself be lured in by these commonplace scams.

Mystery Boxes Mystery-Boxes.com: A Review on Legitimacy and Contents of their Super Mystery Box

I just came across a website called mystery-boxes.com while scrolling on my Facebook feed. I couldn't help but notice the large number of reviews that appeared to be fake. I could tell that many of them used the same language and were posted under different names, which raised some concerns about the legitimacy of this website. Despite these red flags, I decided to take a chance and ordered the super mystery box.

To my surprise, I received a tracking number shortly after placing my order. I wasn't sure what to expect, but I was excited to see what would arrive in the package. When it finally arrived, I couldn't wait to open it and see what I had received. It turned out to be a selfie stick tripod, which wasn't the most exciting item, but it could come in handy one day.

I have to admit, I wasn't thrilled with my purchase and felt like I overpaid for what I got. I have no idea how much a selfie stick tripod retails for, but I'm not too surprised that I didn't receive anything worth a lot of money. That being said, if the item works, I'll probably use it at some point in the future.

Overall, my experience with mystery-boxes.com was just okay. While I did receive a package, the item inside wasn't exactly what I was hoping for. I'm not sure if I would order from this website again, but I guess it was worth a shot.

Mystery Boxes Beware of Mystery Boxes: My Disappointing Experience with a Scam Website

So, I wanted to see what this Mystery Boxes website was all about. I scrolled through Facebook and came across their advertisement. I thought, "Why not give it a try and see what I get?" I purchased two boxes and eagerly awaited their arrival. Finally, after a few days, they arrived. I was actually quite disappointed with what I received. All I got was a small, 4 square inch box in a bag, filled with trinkets that could've easily been bought at a dollar store for a mere $3.00.

I decided to try to return the boxes and get my money back. I quickly realized that it would cost me over $50.00 to ship them back to China, where they originated from. It was frustrating to say the least. I opened a case through PayPal, but unfortunately, the return shipping address in China was not valid. By the time I informed PayPal, my case was closed due to the wrong tracking number. I was at a loss and had no idea what to do.

In conclusion, I would advise all of you to stay away from these types of advertisements. If something seems too good to be true, it most likely is. In the end, I was scammed out of my money and time. Don't make the same mistake I did.

Mystery Boxes Disappointing Purchase: My Experience with Mystery-Boxes.com's $100 Box

To be real, I gotta say that I'm pretty disappointed by my purchase from mystery-boxes.com. I decided to go all out and buy the biggest box they offer, which costs $100. Let me tell you, it was a total waste of money. I'm pretty sure that no matter what size box you buy, you're going to get the same probability of getting anything worthwhile.

I was already a little suspicious of the whole thing, but I figured that even if the items inside weren't super valuable, they might at least be worth around the same amount as the box itself. Man, was I wrong. The two items I got were a pair of totally generic—like, not even with a brand name!—sunglasses made out of polycarbonate (basically plastic) and a fidget spinner. You know what's crazy? I'm pretty sure that these things are actually worth less than what I paid for them! I mean, you could easily find these items at your local dollar store for less than $5!

Now, don't even get me started on the customer service. Sure, they list an email where you can contact them if you have any issues, but I've reached out multiple times and haven't gotten a single response. Talk about disappointing.

Honestly, I would give the whole thing a hard pass. Don't make the same mistake I did and waste your money on mystery-boxes.com.

Mystery Boxes Mystery Boxes Scam Alert: Don't Waste Your Money with Them!

So, I decided to give Mystery Boxes (mystery-boxes.com) a try. I thought I had done my research, but it turns out I should have looked into them a little more before making a purchase. I ordered an unclaimed Amazon box, but it never arrived. When I contacted their customer service, they provided me with a tracking number saying it had been delivered. However, I live in a rural area and spoke with the carrier, post office, and post master, and none of them had any record of the package. I felt frustrated and angry.

To make matters worse, the customer service reps, CHONA and SHY, were not helpful at all. They replied to my emails with vague responses and just sent me the tracking number again and again. I reported the issue to PayPal and the authorities to open a case, as well as the Better Business Bureau (BBB).

What bothers me the most is that I fell for this scam and the lack of information available to people. Mystery Boxes lacks everything that a legitimate business should have and instead just steals people's money.

Overall, I would strongly advise anyone to avoid wasting their time and money on this so-called company. It's not worth the trouble or the frustration.

Mystery Boxes Warning: Do Not Buy from Mystery Boxes (mystery-boxes.com) - A Complete Waste of Money!

This company called Mystery Boxes (mystery-boxes.com) is not worth the time or money. I have to say, I was truly disappointed with the products I received. I mean, if you're going to advertise a mystery box, you should at least make it worth the money spent. But this company failed to deliver on their promise.

Believe me, you don't want to buy from these fraudulent people. You're better off keeping your money and spending it somewhere else that has honest business practices. They call their products mystery boxes, but I got nothing but rubbish items worth a measly $2. I actually paid for four of their mystery boxes which is a total of $90USD.

But guess what? I only received one of the four mystery boxes and it contained a red bad that is absolutely worthless. Then I got a computer mouse which seems to be an old model. Then, I got a small screwdriver set that is completely useless and not worth the money. Finally, I got an iPhone 11 case which didn't even match the description.

So, let me be clear, you must not be deceived by these scammers who take your hard-earned money and give you nothing but disappointment. They will tell you anything to make you buy from them, but they are not to be trusted. Even if they use the name of big companies like Amazon, it is just to lure you in. Don't fall for it; if it ain't from Amazon, forget about it.

I repeat, do not buy any mystery boxes from these fake sites. You'll only end up with reject items, like me. And the worst part is that they may change their name and keep running the same scams. So be careful and watch out for these fraudulent companies.

Mystery Boxes Beware of Mystery Boxes: Scamming Customers with Deceitful Advertising and Fake Products!

I came across Mystery Boxes through their advertisements on Instagram and was immediately hooked by the exciting prospect of their mystery boxes. I eagerly placed an order for their super mystery box, which cost a total of USD 47 including shipping. However, my excitement quickly turned into disappointment when I received the package and saw that the weight was only 0.1kg, which is equivalent to 100g. I couldn't believe that the box would contain a significant volume of items and thought it could have been a mistake from the postal service.

I patiently waited for about four weeks for my package to arrive from China to Norway. After opening the package, I was only left with a fake Apple USB C headphone that could be found for around $5 on AliExpress. The item was certainly not worth the price of the mystery box, let alone the shipping cost.

I strongly advise that you stay away from this shop as they are complete scammers, liars, and cheaters. Although they claim to send a whole package of mystery items in each order, you will likely receive a product that is not worth the amount you paid for. The pictures of their supposedly incredible mystery boxes on their website are fake, and the items are likely fake as well. The customer service is terrible as they do not reply to emails, and their email account seems to be full most of the time.

Please do not fall for their deceitful advertising tactics and stay away from Mystery Boxes.If it's too good to be true, it probably is.

I've known of Piasecki's great team for about 30 years. They always get me in within a reasonable amount of time, thoroughly explain any issues, never do work without a quote up front and are very ethical and fairly priced (cheaper than many other places). A++ customer service you can trust. I highly recommend Piasecki.

Mystery Boxes Unwrap the Excitement: Mystery Boxes Site Review

Have you ever heard about Mystery Boxes (mystery-boxes.com)? If you haven't, let me tell you about it! This site sell boxes with a mystery content inside. I personally love buying these boxes because it's like opening a present and not knowing what is inside. It's so thrilling!

The site is great because you get to choose what kind of box you want, such as beauty, fashion, or electronics. You can even choose the price range that fits your budget. I usually go for the mid-budget range because I get more items, but the lower budget sometimes has great surprises too.

The shipping is within a reasonable timeframe and I've never had problems with damaged or missing items. Once I received a wrong item, but their customer support handled it very well and sent me the correct item promptly.

However, I have noticed some grammar errors in their descriptions - but hey, who doesn't make mistakes? Also, some items can be a hit or miss, but that's part of the fun, right?

Overall, I really recommend trying out Mystery Boxes (mystery-boxes.com)! It's a great way to treat yourself or to gift someone a surprise!

Mystery Boxes Mystery-Boxes.com: A Nightmare from Start to Finish - A Warning to All Shoppers

I recently made the mistake of ordering three "makeup mystery boxes" from mystery-boxes.com. My excitement quickly faded when I realized that the packages were ridiculously priced. However, that was just the beginning of my troubles.

It has been almost a year since I made the purchase, and I still have not received the packages. As soon as I made the order, I decided to read some reviews and that's when I realized my mistake. I immediately contacted customer service, but the lady I spoke to barely spoke English. Despite my request to cancel, she told me that my order had already been shipped out and there was nothing that could be done. When I asked to speak to a supervisor, they simply gave me a tracking number and told me to wait.

Months went by and I had completely forgotten about the order. Then, one day, I remembered and decided to check the tracking number. To my surprise, it said that the packages had been delivered to my mailbox two weeks prior. However, I live in an area where packages are not delivered to the doorstep but instead go into a lockbox next to the mailboxes. I would have known if I had received the packages, but unfortunately, I didn't. When I contacted customer service again, they told me that it was my responsibility to receive the package and refused to take any responsibility.

Not only did they cheat me out of my money, but they also caused issues between me and my husband. He was out over $40, and he has since decided to not let me purchase anything online with his card. To top it off, the people behind mystery-boxes.com were extremely unprofessional, disrespectful, and rude when dealing with my issue.

In conclusion, I strongly advise against buying anything from mystery-boxes.com or any other similar websites. Remember, if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is.

Mystery Boxes Disappointing Experience with Mystery Boxes: A Warning to Potential Buyers

I gotta say, I'm pretty disappointed with my experience with Mystery Boxes. Like a lot of folks, I was hoping to snag an electronics box for a cool $40, plus $5 for shipping. But instead of getting what I paid for, they sent me a $50 gift card. Now, don't get me wrong, I was able to use that gift card to get a pretty sweet Hulk figurine. But if I wanted to sell it, I'd have to pay for shipping, which would eat up most of the profit.

I did some digging online and it turns out I'm not the only one who's had a bad experience with this company. In fact, Amazon has received so many complaints that they're supposedly trying to remove Mystery Boxes from their site altogether. And honestly, I hope they succeed. It's not fair for people to get ripped off like this.

Overall, I'd say that if you're thinking about trying out Mystery Boxes, you might want to think twice. There are plenty of other companies out there that offer similar services without all the headaches.

Mystery Boxes Mystery-Boxes.com Review: Rollercoaster of Emotions and Disappointment

So, I ordered a mystery box from mystery-boxes.com and let me tell you, it was a rollercoaster of emotions. First off, it took a whole month and a half for my package to even leave Jacksonville, Florida. Then, it made its way to Chicago, Illinois, only to be sent back to Tallahassee, Florida, and then back to Illinois again. I mean, what kind of shipping route is that?

To make matters worse, there was absolutely no communication from the company during this whole ordeal. I had to reach out to customer service twice just to get any kind of update on my package. And when it finally arrived, I was sorely disappointed.

The box was supposed to have a minimum value of $20, but what I received was nowhere near that. There were three fake gold earrings that didn't even match, and they were so dirty that I had to clean them before I could even consider wearing them. And to top it off, they didn't even come with backs! I mean, come on.

But the real kicker was the "butterfly" that was included in the box. I say "butterfly" because I'm not even sure what it was supposed to be. It was so dirty and tarnished that I couldn't even tell if it was supposed to be jewelry or not. And to add insult to injury, it was in a bag marked $1.00. I mean, seriously?

I'm not one to usually complain, but this was just ridiculous. The site clearly states that the box will have a minimum value of $20, and I didn't even come close to that. I'm definitely going to be contacting the Better Business Bureau about this scam. Save your money and avoid mystery-boxes.com at all costs.

Mystery Boxes Warning: Do Not Buy from Mystery-Boxes.com - Waste of Money and Disappointment

I recently bought a mystery box from mystery-boxes.com, and let me tell you, it was a big mistake. I didn't pay attention to the name of the shop before making my purchase, and I regret it now. The box cost me ?25.00, but all I got in return were two items that were worth a total of ?15.00. What a waste of money!

I could go on and on about how disappointed I am with this purchase, but I'll spare you the details. All I want to say is that you should not buy from this shop. It's a shame that Amazon allows this kind of thing to go on, and it's even more of a shame that they haven't replied to my complaint. My wife and I have spent a lot of money on Amazon over the years, but it seems like they don't care about their customers anymore.

I hope this review will help others avoid making the same mistake I did. Don't waste your money on mystery boxes from mystery-boxes.com. You'll only end up feeling ripped off and disappointed.

Double-checking is the best solution in this case.

Our conclusion: After detailed research, ComplaintsBoard concludes that Mystery Boxes's website isn't completely safe. So, it's better to be careful, especially when browsing their products or sharing personal information.

Mystery Boxes's website has revealed that it is not properly optimized for search engines. This could be a red flag indicating that the company is attempting to hide its activities from the public.

Multiple low-rated websites are found on the same server. It's possible that the low-rated websites on the same server could be part of a scam. For example, if the websites are hosting phishing pages or spreading malware, they could be part of a larger fraudulent operation.

Exercise caution when using mystery-boxes.com as it may have lower quality content or a poor user experience, leading to fewer visitors and lower traffic.

We detected that mystery-boxes.com is missing an SSL certificate, which is a cause for concern. Without an SSL certificate, the website may not be taking adequate steps to protect users' sensitive information. This can increase the risk of intercepted data being used for malicious purposes.

Mystery Boxes protects their ownership data, a common and legal practice. However, from our perspective, this lack of transparency can impede trust and accountability, which are essential for establishing a credible and respected business entity.

We conducted a search on social media and found several negative reviews related to Mystery Boxes. These reviews may indicate issues with the company's products, services, or customer support. It is important to thoroughly research the company and its offerings before making any purchases to avoid any potential risks.

However ComplaintsBoard has detected that:

  • The age of Mystery Boxes's domain suggests that they have had sufficient time to establish a reputation as a reliable source of information and services. This can provide reassurance to potential customers seeking quality products or services.

Mystery Boxes Disappointing Experience with Mystery Boxes: Knockoff AirPods and Poor Customer Service

So, I recently decided to take a chance and order the so-called "super giant box" from Mystery Boxes (mystery-boxes.com). To my major disappointment, the only item included was a small box of knock off airpods that would only cost about 9 bucks. To make matters worse, these airpods didn't even work. I was quite perturbed, so I contacted them via customer service to see what could be done about the situation. Well, let's just say that I was less than satisfied with their response. They only offered me a 20% refund or the option to pay an additional 20 dollars in order to return the item. It's a real bummer that they operate this way, and they definitely don't have their location in London like they claim. Needless to say, I wouldn't recommend anyone to order from them. It's all a bunch of smoke and mirrors.

Mystery Boxes Disappointed with Mystery Boxes: Buyer Beware

I recently made the decision to order from Mystery Boxes, and in hindsight, I should have trusted my gut feeling that it was a bad idea. The website boasted several appealing images of tents that I thought would be perfect for my grandchildren to use in our garden. However, like a fool, the temptation was too great, and I fell for their gimmick hook, line, and sinker.

As you may have guessed, I was sorely disappointed with what I received. The tent was flimsy and poorly made, not at all what was advertised on the website. Looking back, I knew better than to fall for this kind of nonsense, but I allowed myself to be lured in by the enticing images.

I'm not one to waste money, so this purchase was a painful lesson learned. I won't be ordering from Mystery Boxes again, and I caution others to be wary of similar websites making bold promises.

In conclusion, if you're considering ordering from Mystery Boxes, I implore you to think twice before wasting your hard-earned money on subpar products. Trust me, the disappointment simply isn't worth it.

Mystery Boxes Beware of Mystery Boxes: Terrible Experience with Unreliable Seller and PayPal Protection

's platform.

So, I had heard about this site called Mystery Boxes and I thought I'd give it a try. You know, I'm always up for a good mystery, and what could be better than a box full of surprises?

But boy was I wrong! I placed my order about a month ago, and I haven't received anything yet. Not only that, but when I contacted the seller, they claimed that the box was delivered to my address. But I never received it! What a rip off!

I tried to turn to PayPal for help, but even they couldn't help me out. I mean, what kind of protection are they offering if they can't even prevent fraud like this? It makes me wonder how many other people have been scammed by this company.

So, let this be a warning to all of you out there. Don't trust Mystery Boxes, they are a scam. And don't trust PayPal either, as they don't seem to be doing a good enough job protecting their customers.

Mystery Boxes Mystery-boxes.com: A Scam Disguised as Surprise - An Honest Review

Last month, I bought a mystery box from mystery-boxes.com at fifty dollars, which I thought to be an Apple-themed mystery box. After waiting for some time, it finally arrived, and my son and I were so excited to open it. However, to my surprise, it turned out that the mystery box had no apple-related items at all. Instead, it had two fidget spinners in it, which I could have bought for just five dollars at the dollar store. My son was still happy, but I felt cheated for spending almost $80 on two cheap fidget spinners.

I tried contacting the company multiple times through email to express my disappointment, but sadly, they never responded. I feel that I wasted my hard-earned money on a company that is not worth trusting. Mystery-boxes.com is nothing but a group of scammers who prey on people's desire for surprises, and I advise everyone to stay away from them.

It's quite disheartening to see such terrible practices in the mystery box industry, which is supposed to bring some excitement and mystery to customers. I wish more companies would take their customers' satisfaction seriously and provide them with genuine surprises rather than just cheap trinkets.

In conclusion, I strongly advise against purchasing anything from mystery-boxes.com, as you are sure to end up with overpriced cheap items that do not live up to their advertised themes. Don't be fooled by their marketing gimmicks; they have nothing but disappointment to offer.

Mystery Boxes Mystery Box Scam Alert: My Experience with Chinese Company SHANG HAI PIN LI IAT

So, I was browsing online for something to surprise myself with and I came across Mystery Boxes. At first, I thought it was just another Amazon store, but after digging more, I realized that it was a Chinese company. You know how these Chinese companies tend to change their names and have a bunch of different aliases, right? Well, I guess I should have been more cautious.

Anyway, I decided to go for it and ordered a large electronic mystery box. I was expecting something amazing to come in the mail, but when I received my package, I was pretty disappointed. Instead of a fancy electronics box, all I got was a cheap, toy watch that wasn't even worth the $30 that I shelled out for the whole box!

But here's the kicker, I did make my payment through PayPal so I'm currently in the process of opening a complaint with them. I decided to do some research just to see if I was alone in this kind of mishap. Unfortunately, I came across the website chinesescamers.blogspot.com which listed some sketchy Chinese companies one of which was the specific company that scammed me - SHANG HAI PIN LI IAT.

Man, I wish I had done more research before committing to this package. Hopefully, I can get my money back and warn others about this kind of shady situation. Next time I'll know to be more cautious about these mystery boxes that seem too good to be true.

Mystery Boxes Beware of Mystery Boxes Scam: My Disappointing Experience with mystery-boxes.com

I feel like such a fool for not discovering Mystery Boxes (mystery-boxes.com) earlier! I recently purchased a mystery box and was extremely disappointed to find out that I received the same cheap $3 earphones that many other buyers have received. I must admit, I usually don't fall for these kinds of scams, but I had a moment of weakness and was hopeful that I would receive something exciting. Unfortunately, all I received was a crushed box and low-quality earphones that barely worked.

I am extremely frustrated with the whole experience and wish I had researched the company beforehand. It turns out that this company is most likely from China and is just trying to make a quick buck off gullible people like myself. I can't believe how dishonest some people can be!

In summary, I want to warn others not to fall for this scam. Do not waste your money on Mystery Boxes as you will most likely receive a cheap and useless item. It's a shame that companies like this exist, but unfortunately, they do. Save yourself the disappointment and avoid Mystery Boxes at all costs.

Mystery Boxes Disappointing Experience with Mystery-Boxes.com: Outdated Junk and Long Wait Times

from this site.

Man, I was so excited to order from mystery-boxes.com. I saw all their cool ads on social media and just had to see what treasures I could uncover. But what a bummer, folks. Save your pennies, because I got a whole bunch of outdated crap that I'll never use. Seriously, don't bother.

I dropped some serious cash on a mystery box and when it finally arrived, it was so old it wasn't even usable anymore. I mean, come on--who wants an iPad that's so outdated it can't even run current apps? What's the point? And don't even get me started on the rest of the junk that came with it. I wouldn't wish that stuff on my worst enemy.

But the real kicker? It took over a month for me to even get this crappy box of uselessness. I mean, what a joke. I was so pumped to show off my cool mystery box to my friends, and instead I ended up feeling embarrassed about the whole thing.

If you're in the market for a mystery box, save yourself the trouble and go to a more reputable online retailer like Amazon or Target. Don't listen to the hype--mystery-boxes.com is a real doozy. Take it from me, folks--you're better off spending your hard-earned cash on something more worthwhile.

Mystery Boxes Beware: Scam Alert! My Experience with (Company Name) Mystery Boxes

This company is a total rip-off. I was super excited about receiving my mystery boxes, but unfortunately, I got scammed. I didn't receive anything - not even a card! I needed my tracking number, which they provided me, and it showed that my box was delivered, but the tracking number was invalid. I can't even verify with USPS since I didn't have a real tracking number. I paid a massive amount of money - $74.90 for just two boxes! I contacted the company, and they told me to cancel my dispute. Then they offered me a measly 10% discount on a new purchase. The nerve! They need to get their act together and stop scamming people. I swear I'm never ordering anything online from outside the country again. Don't be a sucker like me - stay far away from these crooks!

Mystery Boxes Mystery-boxes.com: A Rip-off Scam with False Advertisements and Substandard Contents

I recently made the mistake of purchasing a mystery box from mystery-boxes.com. They had advertised pictures of iPads, phones, and even TVs in their promotions, which got me excited. I gladly paid ?35 for the electronics mystery box from Amazon, hoping to receive an item worth gifting to my great-grandchildren on their birthdays.

However, when the box finally arrived, I was hugely disappointed. The size of the box was just 7 inches by 5 inches, and the contents were nothing close to what I had hoped. The earbuds inside the box were cheap and could easily be found online for around ?10. The wireless mouse in the box had a price of only ?10 in Argos, and the charging cable was equally cheap, and one could get it for a few pennies in any local bargain store.

It made me realize that I was lured into this scam, and the company's false advertisement convinced me to spend money on something that is not worth it. I felt betrayed by the company, and they have no right to dupe unsuspecting customers who put their trust in their promotions.

I want to caution everyone not to fall for this scheme, and instead, opt for items that are genuinely worth buying. The price tag may not be significant for Amazon, but for someone like me, ?35 is a lot. I would have rather not spent my hard-earned money on something substandard. Overall, I think that mystery-boxes.com is nothing less than a rip-off, and buyers should avoid it at all costs.

Mystery Boxes Mystery Boxes (mystery-boxes.com) Review: Scam Alert, Do Not Fall for This Trap - 1 Star Rating

Mystery Boxes (mystery-boxes.com):
Woah, hold the phone, let me tell you about my experience with this site. I would say it's a risky business. I'm giving it a 1 Star rating because it was a real let down. I was excited when I got my discounted Mystery Box for only euros 24.97, but what I received was a bit of a disappointment. I got a mini torch, which was 10 cm long, and other small items which were zero fun without batteries. And to top it off, I could have found all of these items in a Chinese shop for only Euro 2.00. What a rip off. And if I wanted to return the goods, I would have to pay for the return shipping as well. It's definitely a scam. I feel like I should report them to the authorities for this one.

I ordered my parcel on January 15th, and it only arrived today, February 9th. So, it was way later than I expected. They are scandalous! I can’t believe they do this to people. It's such a shame. I think everyone should be careful before ordering from here. It's just not worth it.
