Tell us has your experience with this business or person been good? What's this?
doris johnson wanted to buy a vehicle. they're hard to come by where she's at. Nigeria! this person has a really good scam going. she tells you she wants the vehicle-will send you the monies & sending you the the extra she will need for shipping.

her buddy Mike Stevens who is in Benin Africa is to be the recipent of the extra monies-he's the shiper. She sends the check for $5000 and the car was $2000-catching on yet!? wish I had.

so i take the cashier's check to my bank-they hold it for 4 days-give me the $3000 so I can send the money back to them. 3 days after that my bank debits my account for $5000 & basicly told me I was screwed! so I'm out $8000-it gets better.

between all this happening doris decides she doesn't want the car after all and could i send her the $2000 she paid back to her-but please keep $500 for my troubles.fool me once not twice! these people even called my home. MY HOME!!

I filed all the proper reports, have e-mailed both their governments-told them I want to prosecute for mail fraud,counterfeiting,international fraud and anything else I could. Be very scared out there. They're every where.

Kathy! Why in the world would you ever send your own money out of the country before those funds cleared?

Kathy, I'm sorry to hear you got burnt, but a certified or cashiers check from another country is unenforceable here. Why in the world would you ever send your own money out of the country before those funds cleared???? If you provide all documentation to the corporate level of your bank, they may make restitution to you, as they should not have released the funds until cleared, and may be insured due to that fact under FDIC. Thats like you cashing someone's personal chech without first waiting for it to clear. I have to ask you what you were thinking. Good luck~ Steve
