SUMMARY: Counterfeit Loo Dolls, a popular and trendy item, are increasingly targeted by scammers, according to the Better Business Bureau (BBB). Many consumers have reported receiving fake dolls or never receiving their orders when purchasing from fraudulent websites. To avoid scams, the BBB advises researching sellers thoroughly by reading reviews and checking ratings on bbb.org. Use secure payment methods like credit cards instead of apps like Cash App or Venmo. Shoppers should avoid clicking on the first search result and be cautious of deals that seem too good to be true. Victims can report scams at bbb.org/scamtracker to protect others.

The Better Business Bureau is sounding the alarm after a number of Labubu Doll buyers reportedly bought counterfeit toys. Here’s how to spot and report a Labubu scam to the BBB.

SUMMARY: Patrick Joseph White, 30, from Kennesaw, is identified as the shooter in a deadly incident near the CDC campus in DeKalb County, close to Emory University. The shooting occurred just before 5 p.m. Friday, damaging at least four CDC buildings with multiple bullet holes. White was found dead on the second floor of a nearby CVS, struck by gunfire; it is unclear if it was self-inflicted or by police. Neighbors said White lived with his parents and believed the COVID-19 vaccine caused illness. Officer David Rose, a new Dekalb County police recruit, was killed responding to the scene. The motive remains unknown.

The Georgia Bureau of Investigation has identified Patrick Joseph White as the active shooter in an incident near Emory University and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention that left a DeKalb police officer dead. The GBI has not confirmed a motive for the shooting. However, one of White’s neighbors said that he was upset over the COVID-19 vaccine. Another neighbor said they would not have suspected White of doing something like this.
