Stealing money advice - socal tropical fish

This is a warning. This store is stealing money from their customers. They fooled me on Us$2,000.00.

I saw more people being stolen - Do not buy there.

You saw people being stolen? That's terrible!

Can you elaborate on the stealing? I mean saying they stole $2,000 from you is a hefty charge to give someone without an explanation.

And if people are being stolen, then call the FBI.

Honestly the google reviews are pretty bad.

Is this store in Rio De Janeiro, Brazil? Or is it in the US?

It's a store in Socal. OP made a pretty big thread on socal forum. basically he ordered "$5000" worth of stuff. He told the vendor to open all packages in order to fit into 4 or 5 boxes and mailed to Brazil. After 2-3 months of receiving the package, he finally opens it and claims that over $2000 worth of stuff are missing. no proof was ever submitted by OP.

Read through that thread and don't know what to believe, but there was no mention in there about other people being ripped off. So what's the story about these others being scammed, although I find it hard that you got scammed at all.

I googled the store by "socal tropical fish" and there are seven not very good google reviews over the past three years. It seems the problems are mostly recent.
