Television World, Sam Deal-Bradley Hylton-Paul Davis Or A Variation Thereof Phone Is Out Of PA. Says He Was From OKLAHOMA

This all started with an inquiry to an ad in the Tulsa World newspaper. The ad read like new Panasonic 37" plasma TV $300. My brother called and gets a recording from "television world" he is with a customer and will return the call.

He returns the call and says he is a wholesaler and or works for some wholesalers and has several of these TV's at this low price of $300 a piece. He says some of these are corporate gifts and they can do with them whatever they want, and the rest they will sell to Circuit City the next day. All in all, ourselves and several others put in enough money to buy 30 of these TV's.

Order had to be placed that day because they were clearing their warehouse for new orders. (I know sounds ridiculous now)

Well, we couldn't leave well enough alone, so we asked if he had any laptops to go along with the TV's. He does some checking and sure enough he has 30 of them. We say we will take 10. We have to hurry of course because this guy he is dealing with doesn't like to wait around, he is taking all of them to sell that evening, so we have to get our money together.

I had noticed his cell phone was out of PA, and asked him about it. His reply was that it was a company cell that they had given to him. The other number connected to the ad in the newspaper is an Oklahoma number and he says he just works out of his house becuse he is just getting started, and that the factory ships directly to us.

He gave an actual physical address that I looked it up and saw it was actually an address.By the time I found out who actually lived there I was too late.
T
o transfer all of the money we had collected, he directed us to open an All Access Visa account. Basically a secured credit card. Load the funds to these cards and then call him he will give us his account information and we can make the transfer the money. So... We did.

And that is the last time we heard from him. He was to give us a tracking number as soon as he got one that evening. No call, next morning, no call. We tried all evening and morning to contact him, no answer.

We finally about 9:00 the next morning called NETSPEND (all access visa) to try to put a stop to any withdrawls he was making or about to make. They basically told me it was my own problem because I had authorized the transaction.

My brother was smart and reported his card stolen so they put a freeze on his accounts at that point.
Our attorney had faxed them a letter at this point stating that the accounts needed to be looked in to.

After all day on the phone and trying everything I could think of, I got in touch with someone at Netspend who gave a flying rats butt and he contacted the Fraud department and put a hold on the guys account until further investigation.

I now have to send in a detailed report to Netspend asking that they have their people look into the file.
By the way, around noon the following day, the guy whom we hadn't heard a word from since the day before when he accepted our $12,000, suddenly calls my brother with Netspend on a three way call. Asking if he had explained to Netspend the deal they had. My brother then says he has no idea who he is, and has never heard of him. The netspend rep. Hangs up.

So it's the guy who has been calling himself Sam Deal, (but the account is named Bradley Hylton, says it's his business partner) so my brother asked him, so you're Bradley Hylton. Guy says well Sam is his middle name. My brother then proceeds to tell him he has contacted the FBI and he hangs up, never to heard from again. He did actually contact the FBI, he has a brother in law, and they are looking in to it.

If anyone else has had a similar scam please let us know. Turns out his phone are untraceable probably pay as you go phones, and his email, to which I did at least have him send me some type of receipt, is of course fake and bounces all over the US if you trace it.
