I, too, was burned by these scammers. I was leery at first, but the answering system, the number of people I spoke to, and their website all made it seem legit. I dealt with a "Howard Coleman" and a "William Harper" who assured us repeatedly that there was just some problem with the wire transfer. After a couple of weeks, though, we did some more checking. Google Maps helped us locate other businesses in the building that NFG was supposed to be in. Guess what? No one there, including the building manager and the actual tenant of the 11th floor, had ever heard of them. When repeated calls to "William Harper" showed him that we were aware of their actual status (scammers!), they started just hanging up the phone when we call.
