Website Development LLC Is a Scam Operation—-Fake Names, Fake Address, No Refund—Avoid This CompanyDeceptive, Non-U.S. Callers Using Fake Identities to Take Money Scam Alert: Hidden Fees and no video
I am writing this review to warn others about my experience with Website Development LLC. In my opinion, this company operates in a deceptive and misleading manner. From the beginning, the individuals who contacted me used multiple different names. The same person called himself “Eric Young,” then later “Thomas Dave,” and later “Kevin Johnson,” all with the exact same voice and tone. This alone raised serious concerns. They also refused to show their faces on any virtual meeting or webcam. Every meeting was audio-only, which is unusual for a legitimate U.S.-based company. Although they claim to operate from 8875 Hidden River Parkway, Suite 300, Tampa, Florida, their behavior makes it clear they are not located in the United States. Another major issue was the way they pressured me to pay extraordinary additional fees only two weeks after I signed the contract. None of these extra charges were explained upfront. I had already paid the original price of $2,000 for the website, and then they suddenly demanded much more money. This kind of last-minute pressure for unexpected additional payments is a classic red flag. When I requested a refund, they repeatedly promised it but never delivered. More than three months later, nothing has been returned. Instead, they kept asking for my personal bank account details for a wire transfer—information no customer should have to give to receive a refund. When I requested a refund by check, which any legitimate U.S. company can provide, they claimed their company “does not have checks.” After that, they stopped responding to calls and emails entirely. There has been no refund, no accountability, and no transparency. Based on my experience, this appears to be a scam operation using fake identities, fake U.S. addresses, audio-only calls, and unexpected payment demands to take money from customers. I am sharing this review to protect others. I strongly believe government agencies should investigate companies that hide their identity, pressure customers for additional payments, and fail to return funds.
