I received a strange email that said my invoice could not be delivered.  It was from Paypal with their logo and the 888 or 800 numbers in the body of the email.  I was alarmed and went to the paypal.com website and found the contact phone number.  After a couple days of crazy happenings with my paypal account, I discovered my paypal actual account had been hacked,  men from India had done it with their Android phone.  That was the only thing that told me someone had taken over my account. I do not have an Android phone so someone being logged into my account for several days was a big problem. The next thing I know $228k total of money request invoices were sent out to many people with emails I do not recognize.  I canceled all of those invoices.. as soon as I saw them in my account.

After several days on the phone with the real paypal they were able to disconnect my account from this android phone from India.  Very scary.  Not sure where they got this list of names and emails from as I did not recogize any of them.  Well of course people complained about their receiving an invoice for $3,000+ from me … that I did not send.  Paypal closed my account.. and I cannot open another one.  Therefore my shopping cart on my www.JoAnneBassett.com website no longer works. Looking at the thousands of Paypal complaints at the Better Business Bureau online I am now grateful that my shopping cart is disconnected. They did not support the business that got their Paypal.com account page hacked. It was not my website that got hacked. They blamed me and the fraudsters go free.

You can still order from my website that has all of my perfumes.  The Etsy site does not have all of them. You can send me an email to joanne@joannebassett.com, tell me what you want to order and we can arrange the payment through Venmo.  Pay for it on Venmo – @JoAnne-Bassett-5.  I will send you a Venmo invoice to pay. My website will be updated with Natural Perfumes Blog posts like this one.

Earlier this year I had started a new website with Shopify.  I ran into some problems loading my products and the setup features and decided to keep my website and shopping cart. Too much work.

My Etsy store works just fine so you can buy my natural perfumes, perfume kits and supplies there. I do not have all of the all natural perfumes on Etsy so you can email to order from my website as an option.  Also Etsy takes a 10% fee.

For years I have been wanting to sell my formulas and my JoAnne Bassett company.  Some formulas sold and there have been some offers, not a good fit so far.  I am calling it in now as this is another incident that brings me stress.

If you want to buy natural perfumes that I have created using Divine and Royal Alchemy now is the time.  I do not know how much longer I will be selling them.

Thank you all for your support.

Paradise Botanical Perfume oil was born from a memory of a trip to St. John and Saint Thomas in the US Virgin Islands. On St John we went to Trunk Bay with white sand beaches. Many new flowers were encountered on the islands. I saw a large orchid plant with vanilla beans hanging from it.

The ingredients are citrus oils, vanilla absolute, sandalwood, tropical flowers, jasmine grandifolium, and others.

This Natural Perfume oil is created by JoAnne Bassett. It contains high quality essential oils and absolutes in a base of fractionated coconut oil.

This botanical perfume is available in a 10 ml clear glass roll on bottle. It has a silver ball roll on with a gold shiny cap in an ivory organza bag.

I have only have 12 of these roll ons availble.  Go to my Etsy listing to purchase these before they run out. I am just trying out how the roll ons are received.

The definition of an all natural perfume is a botanical perfume that has only essential oils and absolutes for ingredients.  Artisan all natural perfumes may also contain handcrafted tinctures of flowers, herbs and spices.
