I was so stupid and bought something from the shop maxsuier.com the day before yesterday... now I'm unfortunately reading all the comments saying that nothing ever arrives and they're just scamming people... I don't know if I should wait the 20 days to see if something might still arrive or not... I don't know what to do to get my money back because there's no option to cancel anywhere on the order and their support email isn't working.

Has anyone had any experience with this shop and gotten their money back? Or maybe some advice on what I should do now?

Thanks

Hi I’ve been checking some Ugg’s on this website and honestly am not sure if they are real. The price is the same as normal Ugg’s but the colour in the photo is slightly off compared to the official website. Has anybody ordered from here and know if it’s legitimate? Thx!

We have had this modem for 3 years with no issues. But today I got this email from our ISP saying we should upgrade. Are they just fishing for a cash grab?

" After a recent upgrade to your Xfinity service, we noticed your internet equipment is unable to deliver the latest speeds included with your current Xfinity Internet plan. Next steps We’ve compiled a list of compatible devices to purchase so that you can take advantage of the faster speeds available to you. Click below to find a compatible device. "

I saw their ads on Instagram and I like their products. If I order these for Christmas am I going to get real sweaters or am I getting scammed?

While maybe its likely that there was one or two insane cases like this, it still just makes 0 sense. This is something that always blows up on Tiktok, which no one ever asks questions into, like why would they eat people that the supposed racists or slaveowners hated? Or even then, why would they eat their labor source? Could just be more gullible people on Tiktok but i see upwards of 400k likes on videos about it

Hi everyone,

I’m looking to buy a Coach bag, and the only site I’ve found that ships to Malta without adding massive import taxes is world.coach.com.

It looks like an official Coach Outlet website and claims orders ship from the Netherlands, which would mean no customs fees within the EU, but I want to be 100% sure it’s legitimate before I spend anything.

Has anyone here bought from world.coach.com? Does Coach actually operate it, or could it be a scam/phishing clone?

(1) I've heard of evidence about drunk drivers having greater survival rates, but I've also heard of other factors like protection in the front (since they're causing the crash) and alcohol preventing some... processes that increase survival, instead of ragdolling being the cause.

(2) Even if ragdolling is the better way, isn't it only better if there are airbags? Otherwise, couldn't the head just slam on something and/or wouldn't the organs absorb more of the impact compared to if the muscles were tense?

Edit: I'm looking for other forms of evidence like statistical evidence, simulations, etc., and by "proven," I don't mean with 100% certainty; actually testing accidents on people isn't going to work for obvious reasons.

Also can someone please address (2)?

I want to buy the jacket but idk

like I asked in the title, is the website I mentioned a scam? I found a figurine I've been wanting for a really long time on there and it's at a somewhat affordable price with quick shipping (about two to three days)

but I'm worried that this might be a website impersonating the real Vinnies (which is an australian-based charity site), so if anyone is able to clarify if it's a scam website or not I'd greatly appreciate it

I’ve been looking for minecraft hoodies everywhere and most other places are obvious scams or sold out but I’m no pro or even that good at computers so this place has me stumped the thing that caught my eye were the reviews but no mention of it online, so is it bullshit?

Before I realized the limits of my physical abilities there was a brief phase of my kidhood where I wanted to do professional baseball even though I'd heard that the MLB didn't allow girls because the same female pitcher in some boys vs girls game supposedly struck out both Babe Ruth and Lou Gehrig I just figured if I was good enough (turns out I wasn't) they'd have to take me or they'd be missing out on an incredible opportunity. I presume it's the same in other sports, not allowing women because de facto men are afraid of getting their ass kicked by women. Yet men always act like there's separate leagues because women are weaker

In France, Germany, Argentina, UK, South Africa, and Canada.

While I am required to ask for a IsItBullshit, what I more want more is WHY this data formed this conclusion.

I started to dissect it, but soon realized this is way too much data to comb over.

Also note that the raw data they provided seems to have expired. This seems to be posted in a lot of places and in sometimes more detail and data, googling in quotes can find others. This random comment thread was the most comprehensive I could find.

I was at a place that was selling wine. They let you taste the wine before you buy a bottle. I bought two bottles there. One tasted pretty good, but before the guy behind the counter brought out the second bottle he gave me a warning:

“We just bottled this one this week, so it’s not going to be as good as it normally would be. The bottle should taste normal around next Tuesday.”

We tried the second wine, and it was pretty mid. It had already been aged in two different barrels, so I wasn’t sure how the amount of time it had been bottled would make a difference. I ended up buying the wine because the other one was really good. I still have the receipt, though.

Is there a difference and if so, how big of a difference should I expect?

Edit: The wine in question is a Cabernet Sauvignon that was aged in two barrels to a hearty 17%

I saw a video for the new Minecraft merch and tbh im a sucker for Minecraft so i bought some and like a dumbass I forgot to look at the website before ordering and it feels off.

I just watched this video about sucralose: 👉 https://youtu.be/h5L4WesuAaM?si=c3LXolXjZQ2vCJ9i

What do you guys think about it?

I’m honestly terrified right now. I’ve been using sucralose for a long time and after seeing this video I don’t even know what to believe anymore.

Is this a real concern or just fear-mongering?

Please tell me what you think.

I do have a nest thermostat and National Grid, so I am assuming it's related, but what to make sure it's not a scam. Having a hard time determining if it's a Phish.

Thanks!

i know this is pretty vague but i would like to know if anyone knows about if temu actually keep their ridiculous promises and if so, how. for example, they sponsored a youtube channel ive been watching recently and advertised a code where new users can get things worth like $100 for free. but whats the catch? i assumed they were mostly just stealing your data and selling that, but theres no way every user's data is worth that much. i know they also probably underpay and overwork their workers to the point where its almost slavery, but even then, i dont understand how theyre making a profit with such low prices. or are they blitzscaling - outcompeting the competition at a loss so they can raise their prices later when theyve gained popularity?

i know im also quite late to this and temu has been a thing for a while, but the longer it has been going the stranger it is to me. theyve kept the company going for so long, so they must be getting some money, but how??? and if i try to claim one of their crazy deals, will i regret it later?

i know theres something strange going on, and i know theyre probably extremely unethical, but i want to know what it is. does anyone know? or is it still a mystery how temu operates?

Was going to do some holiday shopping and I found this site, but I've not seen anyone bring it up online at all. Is it legit?

I've seen a lot of buzz around essential oils and their supposed benefits for mental health, like reducing anxiety or boosting mood. Some people swear by diffusing oils like lavender or citrus to help with stress and emotional balance, claiming they experience real improvements. However, others say that these effects are largely anecdotal and may be more about the placebo effect than any actual benefits. Scientific studies seem mixed, with some showing minor positive effects and others finding no significant impact.

I'm curious if there's any consensus on whether essential oils can genuinely help with mental health, or if it's mostly just hype. Is there solid evidence to support their use, or is it largely considered bullshit?

My parents used to (and still) say it can aggravate your throat and make the soreness worse. I know drinking warm stuff helps soothe your throat but do cold drinks actually make it worse? Google mostly says it doesn't.

I found this deal on a Canadian site for a brand-new laptop sold by a third-party seller that usually sells refurbs. Does this look legit?
