Desperate to find a face mask to use to protect myself from the COVID-19 virus, I found an ad for an anti-viral face mask on the internet. The ad said that for a limited time, the mask was free, and that all one had to do to get it was to pay the shipping and handling fee.

I ordered the mask on March 13, 2020. On or about March the 29th, I got an email from apesurvival saying that my order had shipped. That same day when I used the tracking number they had provided, information at the UPS tracking site said that UPS had not yet recieved the package for shipment, so when they told me that my package had shipped, they were lying. I didn't recieve my order until April 3rd, 2020. It came in a small clear pastic bage inside of a white plastic envelope,

On examining this face mask, I noticed the following;

1.) It looked rather cheap and didn't even have the metal strip over the nose to adjust the fit securely, and therefore was useless, even if the material it was made of would block the virus which I have no idea if it would

2.) It couldn't have weighed more that an ounce or two and could have been shipp to anywhere in the country for under a dollar; shippingand and handling was $9.95.

3.) From the looks of it, it couldn't have cost more that $1.50 to make.

So what apesurvival had done was to advertise an anti-virus face mask for free, charge a ridiculous amount for "shipping and handling", and send me a fack mask that was completely useless.

They took advantage...

AUTHOR: John - (United States)

POSTED: Sunday, April 05, 2020

 of the fact that you were "desperate" for a mask for some reason (masks are used by people already infected, they don't protect people from infection.) It's no shock that scammers like this pop up on every occasion in which people are already anxious. In this case, they offered a mask and sent you one. Yes, it was overpriced. No, you didn't need it. You were jumpy and paranoid and got taken advantage of.

There are people like you in every emergency, and all I can suggest is that you respond to pandemics, weather alerts, terrorist attacks, stock market downturns, etc. by tearing up your credit cards, because you don't handle life crises very well.
