    This company attracts with a give away, you pay taxes & shipping. They will bill you monthly on the card you provide, for the taxes & shipping. Their claim is you signed up for membership fees.Beware!!

    I am not positive, but I believe they are at it again under the name of FIRST ESSENTIALS GADGET. I don't know how they got my card info- but they first charged **** for "autorepairgadget". Then a day later they charged ****** to my card. I can't even call the number they used as theirs! It went to a rodent recovery in **********!! Stay away- CON ARTISTS !!!!!!!(Tried to not give even 1 star!)

    Luckily I looked up the sites credibility before I hit purchase. Unfortunately I didn't do that until after I put in my card info so they tried to charge me anyway which caused my bank to shut down my card and now I have to stay home for 1-3 days to receive a rush delivery for a new card because I can't wait 5-7 business days to get one in the mail or all my auto payments will be declined causing over drafts or bad credit... Which still may happen as I do 2 different types of pay in 4 apps. SO annoying & such BS. Someone do something about these scammers ASAP!!!

    This "business" is a COMPLETE SCAM. I received notification that I could receive a "free" often after I finished a survey. I chose a Dash Cam, with which I only had to pay shipping, with 30% if I paid with a MasterCard. Total being $5.80. I was provided a tracking number for the ***** It allegedly left ****************, ** on March 11th & allegedly departed ****, ** on the 13th. It hasn't had any movement sense then & today is the 16th. BUT what I did notice is that on the 14th they tried to charge my card $54.95 for something, which did not go through & tried to charge me again today for $74.12 for something else, which also didn't go through. I have screenshots of EVERYTHING. They are lying & stealing credit cards. There is no way they should be allowed to do this a much as they have been. THEY NEED TO BE SHUT DOWN!

    ABSOLUTE SCAM!!! They were advertising on the Weather Bug as a sweepstakes for the Weather Bug.. They said that I was a long time app subscriber who would be rewarded with a gift for answering a survey related to the Weather Bug app. After a few questions, they had me pay a shipping fee and said I would receive an iPad. A couple days later I had the shipping charge of $5.95 and a charge of $89.98 for the iPad! When I contacted them about it? The customer service rep laughed and hung up on me. Now you cannot get through to the number. The bank is refunding the money. Part 2 is that I also contacted Weather Bug because they were allowing Gadget Essentials to advertise on their app. They said that they had received other calls and were "looking into it." I have sent two emails to Weather Bug and never heard back from them after their initial response. I also hold them accountable because they were the only reason I answered it to begin with. I did not think I would be running in to a scam on their site.

    Supposedly won a ******* Gift card. They wanted $2 for postage to ship it.I got a tracking # that didn't work so I knew there was a problem and contacted my bank. The company charged me $5.87 for a $2 fee. And then someone used my card to make a $19.99 purchase. Thankfully my bank caught it and denied the charge. They are scammers and thieves. ???? Minus 2 stars!!!!!
