John Caswell is a scammer
I found a forum post advertising a particular television i was wanting to buy. I emailed the person "Bill Jones" who added me to his msn messenger to chat. He proceeded to ask for my personal information, name shipping address. He also claimed that he could sell me the television for $500 plus $60 shipping costs and would not charge tax.
I know from my research the television is too large and heavy to be sent on UPS or Fedex which he was offering. And since it has to be sent by truck the price is anywhere from 200-400 dollars.
He gave the website address http://ayudainformatica.org/wallace / which has two names on the whois data Yecely Aridai Diaz Beristain and Guillermo Mercado Lozano. The site is very badly made with no checkout option or company information.
He requested payment be made by western union and seemed to not mind chatting for a very long time with me about the product and the service but always insisting on closing the deal.
When asked for his credit union information he provided the following:
Name: John Caswell
Address: 1 E Main St
City: Rochester
Zip Code: 14609
State: NY
Country: USA
John caswell after some google-fu is also listed as a known scammer. Results for bill jones returns an account saying its a Nigerian scammer and this person has likely also going by the name Terry Moore.
