Hello,
I have just been ripped off by a company who's name is CHICGIFTS. I recently needed to purchase 13 Xbox 360 from these people because I sold 13 Xbox's on ebay and my regular supplier ran out of stock at the last moment.
So I got in contact with CHICGIFTS.org and emailed to ask if they had any Xbox's left in stock. They said they did and I requested to talk to someone over the phone. They then gave me a number 412-383-6457. I then spoke to a guy named Tim. He sounded very genuine and helped me in anyway possible. He even forward a letter stating that his company would be my new supplier to my MERCHANT ACCOUNT FRAUD AND RISK TEAM!!!
To make a long story short, I wanted to pay via paypal or stormpay but they said they were having problems with them. Because I was so desperate to get these Xbox's shipped to these customers that bought them from me, I wire transfered 4,680 to a bank account in philadelphia with the FEDERAL CREDIT UNION. Thats what probably also eased my suspicions. Plus the bank they had me wire it to was in my hometown.
I spoke to him one more time after I sent the money and after that I havent heard a word. I have sent countless emails and have not heard a response. It is now 2 weeks later and I know I have been scammed because I am getting countless chargebacks from customers credit card companies!!!
If someone knows what I could do or has any suggestions, please let me know. I would appreciate it. I am a college student who was trying to make a nice living doing online auctions and now I'm in a terrible situation. If anyone can help me get my money back, IN ANY WAY POSSIBLE, please reply.
Thank you
