Source: bbb | Scam Type: Phishing | Amount Lost: $134.89 | Date: April 10, 2026
Mudsterz.com had an ad on Instagram. I purchased 2 toys for $134.89 on 3/17/26 and contacted them through their email and Contact Us form on their website several times to see where my order was, with no response. I also emailed and used the Contact Us form to say I wanted to cancel my order and wanted a refund, with no response. Today, 4/10/26, I went on to send another request and the website no longer works.
