I spent $150 on a 'government-proof' Faraday cage bag that doesn't work

Bought it online last month after reading a bunch of posts about phone tracking. The seller swore it blocked all signals. I tested it by putting my phone inside and calling it from my landline. Rang on the first try, every time. That's $150 gone for a fancy fabric pouch. The whole thing feels like a scam aimed at people who are already worried. Has anyone actually found a signal blocking bag that does what it says?

That's a serious bummer and exactly why I'm skeptical of those products. Did the seller have any real test results or certifications to back up their claims, or was it all just marketing talk? A lot of these companies prey on fear without any real science. What are you planning to do with the bag now, try to get a refund or just cut your losses?

I bought a "lead-free" lunchbox last year that tested positive with a home kit. Total scam, they just sent a generic safety sheet from China.
