Tell us has your experience with this business or person been good? What's this?
We listed our truck for sale on Kijiji then we received a call from "Matt Carter" from Longwood Inc., claiming he had clients in our area interested in our vehicle asked that we call him back at 866-326-9921, "Matt" called from an unknown number. When my husband called back he was answered by "Tasha Ext 111 she also has a direct number at 866-326-0809" who said "Matt" was not in, but she would be able to tell him about the service.

She informed him that there were multiple clients in our area that were interested in purchasing our truck for $500 more then asking price, all it would cost was $249, and they said they could sell it by this weekend (today when my husband spoke to them being Friday) for $149 and they guaranteed $5500. When my husband called me to let me know what they said,  I said to my husband we have had over 300 visits to our Ad and only one response but this guy had buyers for $500 over the asking price!! I looked up the company following my gut feeling of too good to be true and sure enough, there are all sorts of scam reports on this "company" So everyone beware this is a fraudulent BS company, dont send them anything!!

"She informed him that there were multiple clients in our area that were interested in purchasing our truck for $500 more then asking price "

   I can't understand how that pitch is supposed to work.   Who gets offered more than they are asking for a vehicle?  If it's a rare collectable at auction I could understand it, but these folks are calling the average Joe who put an ad for their common used vehicle on the Internet.

   You'd have to abandon all common sense to think that someone is going to call you on the phone, offer you $500 more than your asking price (why?) and only charge you $149 for the privilege of putting you in touch with these seemingly senseless individuals who insist on paying more than is being asked.     

   With the vast number of reports that I see on this company, it's the pitch apparently works with some people.  I just can't imagine who.
