A customer ordered a set of Avon nail polishes. When the package came, one of the bottles was completely empty and another had a thick, gloopy texture instead of the smooth polish it was supposed to be. The customer was frustrated as they had planned to use the polishes for a special event.
One customer shared that they had a very difficult time getting in touch with their loan officer at United Wholesale Mortgage. Whenever they called, they were either put on hold for a very long time or transferred to different departments without getting any real help. The lack of proper customer service made the whole mortgage process a nightmare for them. Moreover, the company seemed to change the requirements for the mortgage in the middle of the process, which was extremely frustrating for the borrower who had already met the initial requirements.
Sure. I heard about an Avon rep who faked the product reviews. She wrote her own positive reviews to deceive customers. When people found out, it was a huge scandal and many customers lost trust in Avon.
Sure. There's a story where a bachelor attends a party at an old mansion. After a while, he gets lost in the maze - like hallways. As he wanders, he enters a room filled with antique portraits. The eyes of the portraits seem to follow him. Then, he hears a soft whisper that says his name. He tries to run but the hallways seem to keep changing, trapping him in a never - ending cycle of fear.
In some horror stories, people's mental states are completely altered. There was a woman who took ibogaine and afterwards, she couldn't recognize her own family members. She had a complete dissociation from her previous life. She was in a state of confusion and fear all the time. She lost her job and her social life because she couldn't function normally. It took months of therapy just to get her to a point where she could start to regain some of her former self.
There may have been a situation where a cosplayer lost an important part of their costume, like a prop sword or a headdress. They might have searched everywhere in the convention center but couldn't find it. This would be really frustrating especially if they had spent a lot of time and money on creating the cosplay. Another aspect could be that the food options were really limited and not very good. People might have expected a wider variety of decent - tasting food, but instead had to settle for overpriced and not - so - great snacks.
Sure. There was a case in a mining town where asbestos was mined. The miners were constantly surrounded by asbestos dust. They didn't have proper masks or ventilation systems. Eventually, a large number of them got sick with asbestos - related diseases. Many died young, leaving behind families in distress.
Sure. A user once entered all their data accurately into Turbotax, but when they submitted, it showed an error saying there was a problem with the IRS e - file system. After days of trying and contacting Turbotax support with no real help, they had to file a paper return which was a huge hassle. Another user found that Turbotax auto - filled some information incorrectly. It filled in the wrong state tax rate for their address, and they didn't notice until they got a notice from the state tax department.
Sure. There was a story where a customer bought a car from Carvana and upon delivery, the car had a huge dent on the side that was not mentioned in the listing at all.
A specific example is when some qanon - associated people targeted certain public figures with baseless accusations. They would spread rumors on social media that these figures were part of some evil cabal, which not only affected the personal lives of those public figures but also created a negative and divisive environment in the public sphere. These false accusations can snowball and cause a great deal of harm, both to the individuals involved and to the overall social fabric.
Sure. There was a case where a woman got Cellfina. Immediately after the procedure, she noticed an uneven texture on her skin. It was as if the treatment had been done haphazardly in some areas, creating lumps and bumps where there were none before. This made her very self - conscious and she regretted having the procedure.
