Michael Poehlman Joel Fischer (recieved our Money) Stole $2,650.00 we had saved to buy an RV home to travel with our mentally challenged son. philadelphia, Pennsylvania
We found the 1985 Tiffin Allegro on Craigslist. Contacted Michael Poehlman owner, and emailed him.
He returned my emails and then 2 emails from autotrader showing forms to my web site. Forms looked authentic and safe.
We followed the directions and sent $2,650.00 by MoneyGram to Joel Fischer 8522 Lyons Pl. Philadelphia,PA (supposedly a autotrader agent).
Emailed Michael Poehlman asked when the RV would arrive in Ohio, No reply.
Emailed autotrader support, no reply, called the phone numbers, disconnected.
Scamed and the bad part is we saved that money to buy an rv to be able to travel with our mentally challenged son. I hope they catch you and I pray some how we can get our money back.

I am VERY sorry this happened to you. Scammers make me VERY angry. Don't worry, you will save the money needed again and get the RV for your son.
That being said...
PLEASE NEVER send money to someone over the internet, REGARDLESS of how legit it sounds. ESPECIALLY when they are requesting payment via Money Gram or Western Union. These are 99% of the times scams. NEVER buy a vehicle blindly... even if you DO actually receive the vehicle.. it is rarely in the condition that was promised.
Don't trust anyone... it's sad this world has come to that, but it has. People take advantage of trusting people such as yourself.
I wish you the best of luck... unfortunately, I doubt you will ever see that money again :(
