This kid took an email that was accidentally sent to him due to his address in my email address book being placed accidentally by me in the recipient box. In my email I had my credit information as I was ordering from a TOTALLY different company.

He stated in a reply he thought I meant to email someone else, but would send out an "order". IMMEDIATELY after I got a return email that he was going to send me some type of order I sent him TWO emails canceling the "order" from the same email I used to accidentally send him the email.

Well about 10 days later I get an email stating...
"Hi and thanks for your patience! Below is your USPS Tracking number. We are experiencing slower ship times due to an overload of orders, however things are slowly getting back to normal and are now more manageable than the last few weeks. We have all sizes fully stocked except Jumbos and Larges so feel free to order but we are asking all of our customers to have some patience and pre planning. The charge will appear as Jacksons Sports Bar and Restaurant on your statement, however, please DO NOT call the Sports Bar to contact us they are an affiliated family business where we process our transactions only. Thank you and have a great day!!"

Of course I was surprised and somewhat shocked. I sent him THREE cancellations of this supposed "order" I had already canceled. He finally responded with a short "Order canceled" email. I thought that was it, but then we checked our Debit Card. He had charged us a couple of days after I had emailed him the first time to cancel $89.00. This caused us an overdraft fee of $40.
I immediately emailed him again and told him to refund the charge. I got no response. I emailed him two more times. No response. I finally told him I was going to start a dispute for the money he STOLE from us. No response.

We started a dispute with our bank and had to get a new Debit Card plus pay the $40 overdraft fee this THIEF charged to us. So far the bank has redeposited the money he stole, but HE has not. This man is a thief. I received no product. He never shipped it in the first place. He gave a tracking number which I have been watching for the last few weeks and it is in stasis as it never shipped. I told him if I did get a "order" from him it would be sent back at even more expense to us.

At this point the bank is still investigating for fraud this lying THIEF. It should come out in our favor, but it isn't guaranteed. He could just end up with our $89.00 plus all the trouble and financial loss we've already incurred from this SCAMMING THIEF.

My advice for EVERYONE that has any interest in whatever he sells to STAY THE H*LL AWAY from this man and his website. He is nothing, but a common criminal. I can't see why he isn't jailed by now. Justice should be done to this thieving b*****d.
Take my word for it. I'm not one to lie and on my word and soul nothing I have said is untrue. The man is trying to steal money for nothing from us over a mistaken email that had nothing to do with his "business" without even being sent anything. He's refusing to refund our money. He's refusing contact. He wants to keep our money for NOTHING. Only the lowest of the low would do this and think they could get away with it.
I repeat...do NOT do ANY type of business with this man or his "company" Dried Poppies Direct. I sincerely hope this b**tard thief gets what he deserves in life.

Question for you...

AUTHOR: Striderq - (U.S.A.)

POSTED: Monday, December 13, 2010

Have you contacted the bank about the refund and allowed them to recover their money from your account? You stated the bank put the $89 back in due to the dispute. This money came from the bank's pocket. If Dried Poppies had refunded the $89 on your card, the bank then would have debited their $89 so that you would not have received the money back twice. Since the refund was through a Money Order the bank has no way of knowing you got the refund from the company. But certainly someone as honest as you ("Take my word for it. I'm not one to lie and on my word and soul nothing I have said is untrue.") would contact the bank to remove their $89 so you don't get paid twice and steal from the bank.

60+day refund..

AUTHOR: Markus - (USA)

POSTED: Sunday, December 12, 2010
I finally got a refund after contacting local law enforcement in Washington State. After a detective called him he responded back to me finally and offered a M.O. Refund, but not really a valid excuse for why it took so long.

So, I thanked the Detective and I have a refund that is $5 short, but I don't care I'm tired of stressing over this. It took 7 days for the refund to arrive once sent and was paid half cash half in a USPS Money Order that was not filled out. I had to fill it out myself. Oh well.

It's NOT been a fun experience.
