I was looking for a pontoon boat on craigslist. There were no pictures. I sent a reply back to cragslist. I got an email back from a person named Kelly Meyer who said that they were selling this pontoon boat I was interested in through Mantis Auto Consignment and Sales. The person also sent me a link to their website along with a link showing positive (fictitious) reviews of the comapny. I was stupid and was on vacation and didn't research this company like I do everything else.
To make a long story short, I wired this company $20,000 for this pontoon boat on Wedensday, June 7, 2017. I get a message on the day it's supposed to get delivered that it got delayed due to another stop they had to make, then the next day I got another message saying the vehicle transporting my boat got in an accident. They sent me an email offering the option of getting the boat the next day or having my money returned. I told them to wire me my funds back. They sent me back a generic email saying you'll receive it back in 1 to 3 business day. They just keep trying to drag you along so they can rip off as many people as they can. I've gone since June 7, 2017 with no boat and no money. There have been several other scams identical to this one. Look up AutoZirkus, AutoMonde, Vinton and DiMarco Auto Consignment and Sales. These scams are the exact same. They will add big company names to the alleged sellers email signature to try to validate themselves. They even sent me a fake drivers license and passport for the fake person that was the seller in my case.
I called the enginnering place this person alleged to work for Hatch Chester. It is a real company but this person doesn't work there. The receptionist there said they were getting many calls for this person and we should beware because it was a scam. They have their legal department investigating. Trust me this is 100% a scam. I called to check their name at the better business bureau. They said they have no record of them doing business in the state of Florida. It was the most stupid thing I've ever done. Please don't make the same mistake as me. I've filed a fraud report with my bank and asked them to freeze the account, I've contacted the FBI, Attoney General's Office, as well as my Congressman. If they send me back my $20,000 I will happily revist this message and say they made it right.
