Scam
Hello all, Wanted to share about a scam that seems to be run by Paradigm Peptides LLC.
You place an order and they require payment by bitcoin, fine.
They double the order, again fine.
But then you get an email saying that the shipment is through Pulse Transit and is ‘AWAITING FINANCIAL RELEASE’ (their emphasis) and they won’t ship until you pay their ‘legal prerequisite for transit’, even though their website says they ship within 24 hours of bitcoin payment for the order via USPS.
The fee they want for the ‘financial release’ is $100, payable by bitcoin only. They refuse any other form of payment. Supposedly this is refunded when the buyer receives the order.
If you want to cancel the order, they will only give Paradigm Peptides LLC credit.
I asked them to confirm they use Pulse, that it wasn’t a scam and they said that the ‘the policy surrounding industry force these fees, and we can do nothing about it’
Yet of the thousands of dollars on peptides I’ve spent, no other vendor has done this. Interesting.
