Dolphin International Shipping
Failure to provide services after payment. Rip-off!

I "contracted" Dolphin International Shipping to move goods from Ohio to London. My goods were collected on 12 October. Shortly thereafter I made the crucial mistake of sending them a wire transfer for $4400 (which was more than double the estimate they quoted me). Since then... POOF! They have disappeared.
I have heard not a peep. All phone lines are inoperative. E-mails have gone ignored. I have spoken with the local sub-contractor who collected my goods in Ohio and have been informed that my shipment is still sitting there (accruing storage charges!). The sub-contractors, who are owed money by Dolphin, have also been trying to contact them to no avail.
This cargo includes items of precious value which I inherited from my mother, who passed away several weeks ago. I am utterly devastated by this apparent scam and am only relieved to discover that my irreplaceable goods are safe.
I am currently pursuing this matter with the Better Business Bureau of Southeast Florida, the Florida Attorney General's Office, Fleet Bank (to whom I wired the funds), and private legal counsel. I encourage others to do the same.
