Online Purchase

What they have advertised is NOT what you receive. It is absolute junk… cheap plastic garland that fell apart as I was taking it out of the box. I emailed them and told them I wanted a refund and they never responded. False advertisement. How can this be legal? All their reviews online are fake (I learned later after researching them). They should be shut down. They send you product that is nothing like what is advertised on their website.

Government Grant

Youtube accepts money from loan companies allowing them to put fake ads on Youtube.com. The ads claim there is is a government subsidiary program but when you click on the link it takes you to centrereliefstation.com. I want to draw attention to this because it has been happening for years since the US sent Covid relief checks. Youtube keeps allowing them to operate/scam people on their site as long as they get a cut of the ad revenue.
