American Recovery Bureau Bradley, Stein, & Locke Had us wire $2738 for "prompt collections due to inside banking information" Los Angeles, California
Jon Johnston called offerings excellent collections services... that differ from other collections agencies for they have "inside banking info" on my customer (owner had a personal account balance of $90k or so... and we'd have access to it). Asked us to wire $2738 to get started...
- we were skeptical (but not enough)... but did eventually agree to get started, and sent $$$.
SEVERAL calls/emails/contacts - went unanswered... though I did talk with Darlene Page, and then "Darlene"... who were both obviously "in" on the scam.
Never did anything - and eventually must have noticed our calling #... for never heard from them again.
I hear there's a large class action suit against them- and hope so!!!

"we were skeptical"
Yet you still sent them over $2700.
Collection services only get paid after they successfully collect the funds.
