Read this and get your money back
Unfortunately, this scam Chinese company is hiding behind the reputation of a reputable UK company called Kims Wigs. Don't confuse Kim Wigs (the Chinese scammers) with Kims Wigs (the UK based company). Unfortunately my wife fell for the scam and ordered a wig. When it eventually arrived, it was completely ridiculous. It was like a badly made glove puppet. She got nowhere with her complaint, they just wasted her time. As I'd paid with my Amex card via my PayPal account that she used, I decided to get Amex on the case. They very quickly forced a chargeback on Kim Wigs and I got my money back. As soon as I opened the case, the Chinese scammers were asking my wife to close it and they only wanted £20 - they'd refund the balance (yeah, right). Obviously we ignored them. Now we're got our money back, they're asking us to post the wig back to them or pay them £30. We're ignoring that too. The moral of the story is always use a credit card to buy things online. I work in anti-financial crime so I'm aware of the benefits of doing this but not everyone is. If any of you out there have been scammed by them and you paid with a credit or charge card, get in touch with the issuing bank (the provider of your credit card). Ask them for a chargeback. You'll have to provide some information but it's not overly onerous. It would be great if this company was suddenly deluged with chargebacks.
