Please do your research before purchasing jewelry online. We are aware of several companies operating under a variety of names advertising on Facebook, selling cheap products online, and utilizing our tracking maps (which can be found for free at www.trackturtles.com) as a perk to buyers. If you have purchased jewelry and were offered a tracked turtle from Ocean Project (https://oceanproject.co/), Turtle’s Journey (http://www.turtlesjourney.co), Wildlife Team (wildlife-team.com), Wildlife Mission (wildlifemission.org), or Wildlife Charm (thewildlifecharm.com), then they are using our tracking our data illegally and without our permission. Please do not be duped or support the scammers.
If you have been scammed, please do NOT email or call our team if you haven’t received your order or if you have questions about “your” turtle. Unfortunately, there is nothing we can do. The greatest inconvenience to our team (aside from having our copyrighted information stolen) is the valuable volunteer time that is being wasted responding to people’s complaints rather than working to research endangered leatherback sea turtles. Instead, we encourage you to report the activity of these companies to the Better Business Bureau, Shopify, and Facebook.
How to report scam companies:
- File a complaint with the Better Business Bureau: https://www.bbb.org/consumer-complaints/file-a-complaint/get-started
- Report online shops to Shopify: https://help.shopify.com/en/questions#/contact/email
- Report pages to Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/help/355811251195044
Florida Leatherbacks Inc. is a small fully volunteer non-profit organization that conducts research on endangered sea turtles. We operate on a very limited budget and it costs a lot of money to track these sea turtles. We are extemely upset by these companies taking advantage of us for their profits.
