This site offered a 2000 Toyota Camry CE for $2800 on a listing on a local auto website. Too good to be true. I'd never heard of any of these escrow sites before and tried to look up information on it but found nothing. When I offered him $2200 for it and he didn't even have a problem but started a transaction I looked a little further.

Thank goodness I found this website. The website he's using is an exact image of one of the sites on here, but with a different name of course.

Here's the info I have:

site is off...problem done

[JacobVorpahl]

Unfortunately, he just threw the site up when I talked to him, so he could do it to another person. I reported this to the IC3, is there anything else I can do?

[georg]

a effectiv way for fighting the gangsters is this:
posting:

Fake-Site-url (here and on aa419.com)
e-mail adress of scammer
banc-account from scammer
(most in a another country; f.e. us-victim must paying to spain, german victim must paying to italy,spain victim must paying to austria...

NOT posting: tracking-Number (via pm to a mod or escrow minus fraud ät directbox dot com only)
Not from interest is posting from Datas for WU-Transfer

only so perhaps a international group can help for killing the Fake-site and blocking the gangsters banc-account.
information to the local police and IC3 also, but...(no comment )
