MantisAuto.com MantisAuto Consignment & Sales Scam company that will ask you to wire money for an item they are "selling" through consignment Nationwide
This company is a complete scam. Be careful because they actually have a darn good website, their grammar is on point, and they have done a little bit of work writing up some fake reviews in obscure places to help fake you into believing there have been happy customers. Believe me, there has never been a happy customer ever. Just people who lost lots of money.
My boyfriend's brother is not very computer savy, and found a listing on craigslist for a boat, and was directed to this consignment company via email with instructions to wire near to $9,000. Without thinking, he did it. I saw the pictures and the email and felt something didn't seem right.
Went to their website - and here's the deal, it's not like it is just "a red flag here and there" - there is not ONE THING that checks out! EVERYTHING doesn't check out.
I started with trying to call the business and got forever on hold. Never was able to get one person at any number to answer, not even an answering machine. Their website states that "due to high call volume they might not be reachable" and refers you to the Q&A on website.
Ok, so then I looked at their office locations listed. I called each of the headquarters LEASING AGENTS on the buildings they supposedly operate out of. NOT ONE leasing agent said their was a company of that name leasing from them.
Ok, so then I contacted the Florida Secretary of State, where they say they have a buisness license for their corporation. THEY DON'T.
So, then I looked at each of their top level people they claim work for them. These guys have impressive resumes on their website, they range from a top marketing guy for McDonalds, etc etc. Really high power executive types, right? Odd how not ONE of them has a linkedin account, and I couldn't find anything on any of them online. I researched a couple of the buisnesses that they used to work for, and they don't come up, or they have nothing written about a person of that name ever working there.
Now aside from all of that, which is so clearly proving their are a scam, I went back to the intial craiglist ad and contacted them about the boat. They want to sell it to me. My boyfriend's brother already received his order confirmation, money out of pocket, and the date and time (tomorrow at 3pm) of when the boat will arrive. And yet, they are still offering the boat for sale, and replying to inquiries, and wanted to take money.
Stay the heck away from them, and if anyone can help spread the word everywhere please DO.
