WAGS SCAMMED: INSIDE THE DESIGNER HUSTLE TARGETING ATHLETE GIRLFRIENDS
In a shocking exposé, dozens of women connected to professional athletes have come forward, revealing they fell victim to a nationwide scam involving custom game day outfits. The alleged perpetrator, Kayla, owner of Wags Unlimited, is accused of defrauding these women, many of whom are girlfriend or fiancées of players from major sports leagues, out of thousands of dollars.
Victims across the country—from Montana to Florida—report similar experiences: they paid hefty sums for custom apparel, only to receive poorly made items or nothing at all. “You’ve robbed us,” one victim lamented, echoing the sentiments of countless others who are now banding together to seek justice.
The ordeal began when Diana Cannon, engaged to Michigan basketball player Namari Bernett, paid a $200 deposit for a custom bomber jacket and other items, only to be ghosted by Kayla after sending her money. “I thought it was just a few of us,” she said, expressing disbelief at the flood of similar stories she discovered on TikTok after sharing her own experience.
Many women reported payments ranging from $300 to over $2,000, with some claiming they were pressured to send money upfront. “I believe the owner is taking our money for her own expenses,” Cannon stated. After posting her story on social media, she was bombarded with messages from other victims, revealing a pattern of deceit that stretches across the nation.
Camora Gillard, whose boyfriend plays for the Pittsburgh Steelers, also fell prey to Kayla’s promises of custom gear. After paying for a cropped jersey and jacket, she received a jacket with letters misaligned and a cropped jersey that never arrived. “I was left with nothing,” she said, adding that her attempts to get a refund were met with excuses and delays.
Kayla’s tactics included sending fake refund notifications and using multiple phone numbers to dodge complaints. One victim, who paid for a Jacksonville Jaguars-themed outfit, received a video purportedly showing her refund, only to later find it had failed due to insufficient funds in Kayla’s account.
As the scandal unfolds, victims are now taking action, filing police reports and sharing their stories online to warn others. The situation has escalated to the point where authorities are being alerted, and women are encouraged to report any fraudulent activity to the Internet Crime Complaint Center.
In a brief phone interview, Kayla acknowledged that she had fallen behind on orders but insisted that many claims were exaggerated. “Those girls are lying,” she stated, claiming that refunds were processed for satisfied customers. However, her refusal to engage further has only fueled suspicions.
As the story continues to develop, the urgency for justice grows. Victims are rallying together, determined to reclaim their hard-earned money and expose the truth behind this elaborate scam. For now, the WAGS community remains on high alert, reminding everyone to tread carefully when making purchases online.
