Noblethready is a scam. This page exists to warn you.
Whether you searched for Noblethready or "Noble Thready," you are in the right place. If you received a package with a card or slip listing [email protected], you ordered from a fraudulent website, and there are simple steps to get your money back.
One thing to know up front: this scam has no connection to Noble Threads, the legitimate US menswear brand whose name the fraudsters imitated. Here is how to tell them apart.
[email protected], your order came from this scam network, even if the store you bought from is not listed below yet.
Known scam storefronts using this card:
What happened
A network of short-lived scam storefronts advertises heavily discounted clothing and shoes (often 50 to 74 percent off) on social media. When you order, they ship a cheap item that does not match the listing, along with a printed card telling you to contact [email protected] for "support."
The original noblethready.com store was shut down for fraud. The scammers keep printing its email address on their packing cards while rotating to new storefront names, such as Harroom.com. Emails to that address never reached a real support team.
The name appears as one word, "Noblethready," on the cards and the original site, though many shoppers search for it as "Noble Thready." Both refer to the same scam.
What to do right now
- Dispute the charge with your card issuer or bank. Call the number on the back of your card and say the merchandise was "not as described" or "not received." This is called a chargeback, it costs you nothing, and it is the single most effective action. It also directly penalizes the scammer's payment account.
- Do not pay to ship anything back. A common trick is offering a "refund" only if you mail the item to an overseas address at your own cost, which often exceeds the refund. Your card dispute does not require returning the item.
- Report the store. File at ReportFraud.ftc.gov (FTC) and ic3.gov (FBI Internet Crime Complaint Center). Then flag the site as deceptive with Google Safe Browsing, which is what makes browsers show a red warning screen to the next shopper. Two minutes each, and volume matters.
- Protect your information. Do not send photos of receipts, your card number, or ID documents to any email address printed on the card. If you already created an account on the scam site, change that password anywhere else you use it.
