My girlfriend has a business and fell for this scam in Craigslist. I did not get the chance to stop her before she sent her money. She was approved by these guys for $300K, and was told she would see funding around 6 months time. It's been longer than that, and when she called and talked to Lee Meyer, all he would do is lie to her to buy time it seems.
She sent them a check for $2499. They told her she would be billed for another $2499 after she received funding. I asked why she sent a check instead of using her credit card. They didn't accept credit cards which should have raised concern. So far all she has gotten is some dinky business plan. It looks cheap and we could have done this on our computer as was done in this scam.
We drove up last Wednesday to spend Easter in Las Vegas. We stopped by the address listed on the site. It was a medium office park near Las Vegas Blvd. As we found the right building, we pulled up and went inside. A man greeted us. We told him who we were looking for and our situation. He expalined to us they had moved out. My girlfriend was upset as she should have been. I wanted to get a chance to speak with this guys.
As we were leaving another guy came outside and told us that one of the guys had told him they were going to work for Main Street Chamber and they also claim membership to them on their website. We are seeking legal action to go after these criminals. Next, we will contact Main Street Chamber.
