My husband was working with Jeremy via usedjdm.com to import 2 cars into the US in October. At the time, there were not any fraud warnings online about this website and my husband did not find out Jeremy's full name until it was too late. My husband was under the impression that he was dealing with a business and was speaking with several different contact people so he researched the business and not the individual. Long story short, on 10/27 we wired $15,000.00 to 7324341 Canada Ltd. For the purchase of a Nissan Skyline and a Mazda RX-7, the funds were then to be forwarded on to the car dealer in Japan, Autosquare Co. Ltd. Kumata 7-12-13 Higashi Sumiyoshi, Osaka Japan 546-0002. Jeremy forwarded us a wire transfer confirmation coming from the business a/c going to the Bank of Tokyo. After Autosquare received the funds they were to request deregistration papers from the DOL in Japan and then process the cars for shipment. Jeremy responded to all calls and emails very quickly, after the money was sent Jeremy blamed delays on the company in Japan and at one point even said that they had sold the car that we supposedly purchased, so we had to choose a different car. The new car required a difference of payments so we wired an additional $1365.00 to 7324341 Canada Ltd. On 12/3. After the second transfer we received scanned copies of the deregistration papers, Bill of Lading, port shipment details and tracking numbers. The Skyline supposedly got to FL and then was held up in customs, we have not heard anything more on that.
Jeremy said the Mazda RX-7 had been shipped incorrectly to his previous address in Vancouver. After countless more calls and emails, which became harder and harder to receive a response, Jeremy had the car put on a transport vehicle and delivered to his home in Peterborough. He actually sent my husband a video of the car being delivered to his home, Jeremy was in the video, and he filmed the VIN #s and other identifying features of the car, Jeremy was then supposed to drive the car to New York, have it licensed in the US and then transported to our home. We haven't heard a word from Jeremy since January.
I realize how naive this story probably sounds, but it doesn't change the fact that my husband and I have lost almost $17,000 and Jeremy apparently thinks it is ok to steal people's hard earned money. Losing this money has impacted our life greatly and for anyone reading this who thinks that we deserve what we got because we listened to and believed Jeremy, that is truly an ignorant way of thinking and please do not post your comments here.
We have filed a claim with the BBB in Ontario and they have tried to contact all company alias and names we have given. Any additional help, thoughts, or advise is appreciated. * Jeremy if you are reading this - it is time to make this right and return the funds as you said you would! *
