:roll: :!:
Let me preface with my overall I feel stupid moment, blanketed by anxiety I am hoping for some relief here.

I was contacted by someone on Facebook who had mutual friends and I just got back from a music festival where there were several people I met and thought this person was one of them.

We chatted for a few weeks and overall seemed like a nice person. Anyways they said they live in Cali and make all sorts of psychedelic products. anyways it just so happened that over the weekend I spoke with a few people about making online purchases and they seemed like it was pretty easy.

Being the skeptic I tried to only purchase a very small amount, somthing like $100 worth. Also cause I'm broke as a joke.

Anyways proceeded to do the moneygram payment transfer thing with the promise of overnight delivery.

So I got a few called from some shipping service claiming I had to confirm my address via email, which I stupidly did.

anyways a few days go by and I don't see anything deliver, I get another email from them claiming I need to pay $650 in refundable insurance. Here's the emails I received so far.

How do I know if this is a scam or not? How do I know I'm not going to get in real trouble by the police?

I already have problems sleeping for the past week. Any help either legally or otherwise is greatly appreciated. I am hoping this saves someone else some money and headache. Lost some money but I guess compared to the other posts I've seen it's not too bad. I am just kicking myself for attempting to do some online transactions for some illegal drugs. All in all, I won't be doing any of that shit anymore, it's not worth the worry.

had the same thing just happen to me. Bought medical cannabis as I have terminal cancer from this website:

https://weedstrainsuk.com

this is who I was asked to pay (I assume the same guy, who answers the phone number on the website)

Account Names. Lambert Ndi
Account number..40804321
Sort Code…040075

and then I got Word Press updates with supposed updates on the parcel (their website is made on Word Press too!)

and then am now supposed to pay 400 Pounds, being told I HAVE to use their refundable insurance scheme ...

How does one take this website down and report this? I have not paid the insurance, though lost 200 Pounds on the purchase. Asked for the parcel to be returned and refunded but reckon there IS no parcel ...

Supposedly from Royal Hub
Sort Code...04-29-09

Account number...03889025

You are bound to use our Refundable Insurance Scheme to secure your package permitting the courier to carry forward with the discreet delivery.
 After the insurance fee is paid,
We will provide a fully refundable receipt, which will entitle you to a 99% refund of the money paid for insurance upon delivery after 1% of the amount has been deducted as an insurance certificate fee.
This is the details below where you can do your transfer.

Welcome to Royal Hub Transport & Logistics
Dear Client
Please attend to this email with regards to a Psychoactive Medical package scheduled to be delivered to your address with AWB #: UKM0012008
After sorting for dispatch, the custom board at Prohibited & controlled items is demanding an insurance document based on the rules and regulations on all psychotic substances for lack of prescription for import.
 
Schedule II & V shipping requires (MEDICAL PRESCRIPTION), inspection, and approval for discreet delivery.
An Insurance policy is therefore required for the transportation of cannabinoids based on the Controlled Substance Act (CSA).
Analgesic and psychoactive-based products are used as a substitute for uncontrolled substances.
 
* You are bound to use our Refundable Insurance Scheme to secure your package permitting the courier to carry forward with the discreet delivery.
 
* After the insurance fee is paid,
We will provide a fully refundable receipt, which will entitle you to a 99% refund of the money paid for insurance upon delivery after 1% of the amount has been deducted as an insurance certificate fee.
 
*If anything should happen to the package during delivery after this insurance fee has been paid for, the Shipping company shall be fully reliable for all expenses and extra compensation.
* This means you will have to pay cargo insurance for your package as evaluated below.
 
Insurance Deposit Amount = 400 £(99% Refundable)
Insurance Document Bill - 1% = 4 
Insurance Refund Upon Delivery 99% = 396 £
 
So you have to deposit with our company the sum of 400 £ for us to get your insurance certification and a refund of 396 £ will be given back to you alongside your package upon delivery by our delivery agent.
This Refundable Cargo Insurance is valid for 12 months, as such, you can ship other items using this same coverage for a period of 12 months.
 
As soon as you go through this, Kindly email us for instructions as this should is to be handled immediately in order to catch up with the schedule & evade confiscation of your package for lack of compliant certification.
Thanks for using our powerful service.
