      As explained in this comment https://www.scamwatcher.com/scam/view/697703#comment-1160108, there appears to be a way to recover one's money. It's called Chargeback.

      We did purchase a turtle design tee shirt through Groupon - received nothing for 2 months then received THREE of the shirts and was billed $77 charged to a company "beambend UK GB" - no invoice or contact to return items (tee shirt was a month late for intended gift). Scam? Bad business? Whatever, strange for sure.

      Just today, I got two packages (the item, actually four of the same item, would not fit in one package) and I'm delighted to see that the product is good quality and arrived in fine shape. Sorry to hear of all the mishaps and misdeliveries reported here.

      I looked it up -- the address on Wolcott Ave on the south side of Chicago is actually a single-family home.

      It seems like the folks who run this are just a hub to process orders from China or other foreign source. They never touch the products, just drop-ship from the origin to the buyer.

      I did not order the sweatshirt that came from Geathers Fottys. Something needs to be done about this so-called company !!!! The shirt is pretty, but does not fit . There is a label underneath the one that had Geathers Fottys on it . The return address just says online seller from DuPont , WA 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬

      I ordered a beauty product that likely was manufactured in China. After about 2 weeks of strange tracking, the package showed up from Geathers Fottys with the same address. Not sure but it appears the item was send there first, another label was affixed over the original lable addressed to me. It arrived via USPS so this is my best guess. bIf you received something you never ordered, they may have gotten the shipping info wrong.

      I guarantee this is a dirt-bag seller from China. I purchase many items on eBay, and for a while (not any longer) I was buying items from sellers from China. Well, it took me a while to learn that 99.9% of the sellers from China, and those of the same nationality from California, are dirt-bag thieves, crooks and scam artists. I cannot tell you how many times I won an item from a seller from China or California and the item was (1) never shipped; or (2) shipped and delivered but the item was not the item that I won, but rather the item shipped was a cheap item like a AA battery, a pen, candy or even once a piece of paper that said Happy Halloween; or (3) an item was supposedly shipped but it was shipped to a non-existent address in another U.S. state. Fortunately, eBay has a purchase guarantee and upon providing them proof of the non-shipment or fraudulent shipment, they refunded my money each time I was defrauded. This time I was not not defrauded, but I received a package meant for someone else but addressed to my exact address, including a plus 4 ZIP code. The item was a cheap $1.00 store garlic press. I truly doubt that someone ordered a cheap garlic press online as it probably cost more to ship than the cost of the press. So, this is more than likely a case of a replaced item shipped to a different address and the buyer has now been scammed out of their purchase price for whatever they won or bought. Needless to say, I will NEVER buy from someone from china nor California... Read more

      I've never ordered from them but got something from them that I can't even figure out what it's used for. It's plastic and could be a pill breaker is about the closest thing I can think that it could be. It's blue and clear plastic. Someone hacked my PayPal account a few months back so maybe they got my info then. There was no packing slip so I have no dollar amount to start my search. Don't like this though

      This Geathers Fottys is a complete scam operation. I responded to a sweater advertised online as from Nordstrom, ordered 2 of them for my daughter and me. They were priced at $19.00. The sweaters arrived 2 months later, both sized small, no paperwork or instructions to return them. And no label inside the sweaters, Nordstrom or anything else. The only information was the return address label on the shipping package for this Geathers Fottys on Woolcott Ave in Chicago, Ill. The address is a residence. Total scam.

      I ordered Sketchers and after a long time I checked them and they gave a tracking number which said it was with the local currier. Several days later I tried to check again but the message from them had vanished off my phone. Can people disappear things off my phone from their end? A few days later I got the infamous Geathers package of shoes that are super cheap, about the right size but NOT Sketchers! Ordered off a You Tube add. Shoulda coulda woulda known better.

It appears to be from eBay but with the Geathers Fottys return address. I'll donate it. I've changed my password on eBay, and I'll check statements to see if I'm billed for it. Maybe a brushing scam?

Post office stamped the envelope "received without content" on the front of the envelope. So what do I do now? I don't know where it came from, what was in it or which credit card it may have been charged to.

In the envelope was a small box containing bee venom which is for psoriasis which I do not have. This came from that same place on Wolcott Ave in Chicago. If they are going to send me something that I do not have to pay for, they could at least make it something good! There are 3 labels on my package … the first one said it came from Wolcott in Chicago, the second one which was also addressed to me came an online seller from DuPont, Washington and the third one I was unable to remove the top labels completely, but I could see my name and address through the paper and towards the top were a bunch of Chinese characters!
