Scam Tracker report:
"I was looking on a reputable company's (Braun) website for a pulse oximeter. When I entered pulse oximeter into search on the Braun website I was directed to this link, brauntherm.com. The website looked legitimate and had an https address and a lock icon. Believing that it was a Braun product, I ordered a pulse oximeter using Pay Pal. The money was immediately taken out of my Pay Pal account where I have an Amex card registered. When a week went by without a shipping date, I sent an email. I did not receive a reply, so I called the number listed on the website. A recording said that a support agent was not available and I should leave a voicemail for someone to contact me. Nobody contacted me. I began to believe that it was a bogus website, and I entered a complaint at Pay Pal's resolution center. I also called Amex, who said they would refund my purchase, which they did. The worst part of this experience was that I called my sister and 3 friends to urge them to buy the pulse oximeter because of COVID 19. I felt terrible that I had led them into this scam. Each of them had to cancel their credit cards and get new ones. One of them found that this company is registered in China. I called the number on the real Braun website and a customer support agent told me that brauntherm.com is not a company related to Braun. She said she had received several calls during the past two weeks from customers like me who believed that brauntherm.com was a Braun company."
Scam tracker report:
"Being asthmatic and immune compromised, I worried that with allergies and the Covid-scare, I needed to keep track of my blood oxygen since I have been struggling for months. I searched fr a pulse oximeter. I found BraunTherm which had a week turnaround and appeared to charging a bit more which I figured was the state of demand at this point. I paid through Paypal and anticipated receiving it. After a week of no delivery/update, I became worried that my money had gone to someone with malintent. Taking advantage of people who need health supplies during this scary time is disgusting. People who do this belong in jail. I wish there was recourse."
