Eltman eltman and cooper - do not trust these people! They are thieves!!!
I wish i had known of this site before i endured my bad experience with these con artists. This is my story.
Yesterday i went to my bank to deposit some money i was told my bank account was frozen and no transactions are allowed. I asked the bank why and they couldnt give any answers.
They gave me the number of eltman eltman and cooper. I called this number and spoke to a woman by the name of GWENDOLINE RICHARDSON (who pretended she was here to help!). She told me they were lawyers acting on behalf of Citibank and that they are chasing payment of a credit card in 1992 of over $12000!
I was in shock. I have never dealt with citibank in my life!!! Never never never. At first i thought i was a victim of identity thefy or something.
I asked her for all the information they have on me and that i wanted to see a copy of the court papers that allowed them to freeze my account.
She could not provide it or any other info. They told me the only way they will unfreeze my account is if i fax them copies of my bank statements and deposit $500 into a western union "quick collect" account # EEC1065472 (meaning the money gets to them in 5 mins!)
I panicked because i needed my account. Further more i had checks pending. So i paid it. Although it all sounded fishy i just thought to pay it then work it all out after. I called up this woman to let her know i had paid the money.
She told me that she would go ahead and unfreeze my account (this has yet to happen) my wife tried to locate their website and the first search came up was RIP OFF REPORT!
Alarm bells started ringing!!! They've already taken out of my bank a further $120 for what has come up as "legal fees". My bank said that it's a "ghost" transaction because they cant see who the money went to and that it seemed like a collection from my bank itself! Can i get my money back?
Please if anyone had a similar experience i would love to hear what steps i can take to sue these people for messing with my life!
Also, if these people have been doing this sort of thing for years. What steps have been taken to stop them? Thank you in advance
Ripped off!
