Thanks for the reply Avoiceguy2000!

From the very first moments, I knew that these guys sound more fake than real. However, $75,000 is alot of money, and I didn't want to loose it just by disbelieve. That's the reason why I started to investigate and ask other people.

The first thing that made me hesitate was that they told me that I have to send a cashiers check to a person, and not to the US customs. That's really stupid. US custom is not a private property of a person.

Then, when I contacted with the company, the guy told me that "Yes it is all true....I have your check infront of me bla bla bla...", but the custom told me that they have my check. A contradiction

Once I delayed sending them the money, the US customs told me that if I don't send the money within 3-4 day, they will send back the check to the company and the company will issue it to another person. This is stupid (Sorry for the language!). How the custom know if the company do such a thing???
Besides, if it was true, the check would have been my property so how can the company send it to somebody else leggally?

These guys don't know how much stupid they are!!!

I already contacted a fraud agency before getting your response. I gave them their phone numbers and the name of the person. I am still looking for some more agencies where they can investigate the case more throughly and find these stupids. I am pretty sure they will try to rip off 100s of other poeple.

I am glad to hear that you were not swindled by these people.

They are very hard to catch. They move constantly and use a fast-changing array of phony addresses and telephone numbers. Nonetheless, the U.S. Attorney' office in Maine recently succeeded in obtaining convictions against one such group earlier this year.
