        Several users have reported falling victim to a scam involving an online store that claims to sell various products, such as self-watering planter boxes, chicken coops, Beatles record collections, e-bikes, and raised garden boxes. Customers have mentioned that the store advertised on social media platforms such as Facebook and Instagram, often displaying the logos of well-known brands like Home Depot and Costco, making the advertisements appear more legitimate.

        However, instead of receiving the products they ordered, customers have reported receiving unrelated items like cheap sunglasses, flower seeds, and garden gloves. When customers attempted to contact the company to rectify the issue or request a refund, they encountered difficulty, with support links leading to scam alerts or offering inadequate resolutions such as partial refunds or keeping the unwanted items.

        Some customers have taken action by reporting the scam to their credit card companies and contesting the charges. They have also warned others not to buy anything from ads on Facebook or Instagram, as scams and frauds are prevalent on these platforms.

        Planterbeds.com is scam. Don’t buy from this website. The self-watered planter box that they sell is scam and don’t fall for the low price.

        I fell for an ad for a battery operated chain saw. I ordered two and received two links of chain with handles. I wondered where to put the batteries. If it sounds too good to be true...

        They have made as if they are selling through Costco.

        I am a victim too, got the sunglasses instead of the planters. They are trying to convince me either to keep the glasses or to get at most 30% refund, refused to get me the planter or to give me a full refund and i am pretty sure i would not receive the 30% refund anyway. I have worned my credit card provider and facebook where i saw the advertisement.

        I ordered 2 planter boxes and have not received anything yet. I emailed the company and they said it is on its way. They charged my credit card. Yes they do make it sound like it is Costco,
