Consumer Report

I had listed a piano on Craigslist and was soon contacted via text by this man who wanted to send me a cashier's check for the amount of the piano and shipping. I received the check via FedEx with the return name of Embroidery Etc whose FedEx account he had hacked into and used to charge shipping for the checks he sent me. The full amount of the check was $1,950 and "Dave" requested via text that I cash the check and take the amount of money minus the cost for the piano and MoneyGram it to a different location. The person I sent the MoneyGram to was by the name of Amber Lee Marsillo in El Monte, CA who at the time I assumed as associated with the "moving company" who would pick up the piano. I now know that this was the scammer's accomplice who likely goes by a different name. I withdrew the money from my bank account a couple of days after receiving the check, believing it had cleared, and completed the wire transfer with no problems. The next day I found out that that the check had bounced and overdrew my bank account by about $1,900. I was completely devastated and couldn't believe at first that I had been scammed like this. I had never been scammed before and never heard of this particular type of scam so I was pretty niave. I immediately tried to contact Dave multiple times but no response. The very next day I recieved another FedEx package with another cashier's check that was identical to the first one. I never cashed or deposited this check and I currently have it in my possession.

Luckily, my bank did not charge me overdraft fees however I was responsible for paying up the overdraft. It was very hard to deal with because I was already struggling financially and was entering my last semester of college. Currently, I am no longer in debt with the bank and have graduated from college, however I still struggle financially while I seek employment. I am determined to find and report whatever information I can to help get this guy caught and off the streets. He is a very wicked and dangerous person whose only goal in life is stealing and greed.

Anyone reading this who has ever been scammed or even contacted by this guy needs to report him though any means possible so that other people can be aware and not fall victim to him.
