I recently saw an internet ad to see for Free what my personal information looked like online, so I was directed to instant checkmate and I stupidly answered all their personal questions and then when they told me it was going to cost $22.96 to see my report, I quickly logged off without paying.  Then even though Instant checkmate guarantees that all the information they have is completely SAFE and SECURE,  they then sold all my personal information to some international scam artists in the Dominican Republic.

 

Today, one week to the day I logged off instantcheckmate.com without paying, I receive a phone call from someone pretending to be my grandson who had taken an overnight trip to the Dominican Republic and was in trouble because he had drinking and was over the limit and he had created an automobile accident and he needed $1,100 to pay for the damages he caused or he would be arrested and put in jail for 6 to 12 months.  He said he was at the American Embassy and he handed the phone to someone illegally impersonating a Marine Sargent. He said his name was Sgt. Richard Benson and his phone number was 1-829-454-9916 ext. 241 and he was on duty for the American Embassy in Santo Domingo,  and He would get my grandson out of the country with no charges if i would MoneyGram $1,100 to an attorney named Jeyson Contreras - Reyes with instructions of No Home Delivery - so they could pick it up - and no accurate description about the Legal Problems, and just call the $1,100 a Vacation Expense.  THIS IS FRAUD! because they Guarantee that all their Personal Information is  Safe and Secure and no one else can get your information which is a complete an utter fraudulent statement.  

 

After I got all the details written down, the personal impersonating the Marine Sargent working in the US Embassy asked me how long it would take before I could send the money and I said two hours. (I believe it is a Federal Offense to impersonate a member of the United States Armed Forces.)   After I hung up I called my grandson at his dorm room at the University of Texas Tech and he answered and said hello Grand Paul, and I told him of the scam and that I was grateful to see that he wasn't in the Dominican Republic.  Then I asked myself where could they have gotten that information? Then, I remembered the instant checkmate questions. Therefore, since I really don't use Facebook that the information had to come from instant checkmate.  One more thing I think they also picked me because I am 80 years old, and I guess that means they assume the older relatives are an easy scam. 

 

I request that we get the FTC to instigate a Lawsuit against instant checkmate for selling personal information to criminals and I will be willing to testify against them.  In fact I would love to know if any other people that have used Instant Checkmate have been victims of this scam so we could create a Class Action Lawsuit against Instant Checkmate and their illegal operations and get them off the internet.
