Complaint Review: Jurgen Von Stein

 Jurgen Von Stein presented himself as an Investment Broker based in London in response to a funding request for an international business venture in the Bahamas.  After stringing us along for several weeks, and even setting up a phony bank account with a "Compass Investment Bank", also a phony bank, an urgent last minute request was made for "corporate tax payment" in the amount of $28,000 on a $2 million loan. 

This was required, according to Von Stein, to get us a "tax code" number that would allow for the $2 million in the account to be "accessed". All of this, of course, was just a huge lie and a ploy to get money from us that we would never see again. This guy, and his cohorts at "Compass Investment Bank" are nothing but international scammers looking for easy targets in other countries, especially the US. 

Stay far, far away from anybody or anything that looks or smells like Von Stein and the phony bank in London.  The only thing true about him, I think, is his German accent, as he claims to be a German national.  Other than that, he's nothing but a cheap crook. 

Note: Maybe this is his idea of a joke, but the street address on his ID is actually the local POLICE STATION in the Tooting section of London.  How appropriate!  Maybe he's spent time there.
