  1. Placed an order in the amount of $718.00 on JetCameras.com
  2. Canon EOS M50 with EF-M15-45mm Lens
    Canon EF-M 55-200mm Lens
  3. Had a conversation with Alan from JetCameras.com regarding my order
  4. Call Log with Alan from JetCameras.com
    • He started the conversation by verifying my order
    • Then he tried selling me a "5-hour battery with charger and lens filters" for a total of $889 (an additional $170 for items I neither ordered nor wanted)
    • After I declined his upsell, he rambled on and slipped in that the camera did not come with a battery or battery charger. His website clearly states the camera kit is NEW:
      • Me: "I thought the camera came with a battery"
      • Alan: "Not at this price point"
    • Alan tried one more time with his upsell. I declined him again:
      • Me: "Just send me what I ordered"
      • Alan: "Ok. We have a 10 day return policy and will charge a 15% restocking fee if returned"

  • Received package from JetCameras.com
    • Never received an email with tracking information like I was told
    • Package did not come with Signature Confirmation like I was told
      • UPS left package without requesting my signature
  • Open package and two boxes inside. So far, so good
  • Contents of package from JetCameras.com
  • Canon EOS M50 box is opened with no factory seal. Clearly not new as item description states on JetCameras.com website. Closer inspection of Canon box reveals it isn't even the correct box for the item I purchased
  • Wrong Canon EOS M50 box
  • I ordered Canon part #2680C011 and the box is for Canon part #2680C032. Could not find any information about this part # from Canon.com

  • Inside this box for the wrong Canon part #, I found the following items
    • Canon EOS M50 camera body
    • Battery and battery charger (which Alan stated "Did not come at this price point")
    • Plug for the battery charger
    • User manual
    • Camera strap

Summary of Fraud

SKUs from order confirmation email and package invoice don't match
The summary of fraud committed by Alan from JetCameras.com is as follows:
  1. Upsold unwanted items during order verification phone call
  2. Did not provide an email with a tracking number for the order shipment
  3. Did not send package with Signature Confirmation as indicated
  4. Sent an open box (and wrong box) with missing items instead of the product ordered in new condition as indicated from the JetCameras.com website
  5. Failed to send the second ordered product at all
  6. Is expecting a return of all items at my expense and thinks he will be able to charge me a 15% restocking fee for his clusterfuck
