Originally contacted via email by Jack Martin requesting further information about our RV for sale through RV Online. He provided information stating he had deposited $23,999 into our Paypal account and we received a confirmation email from Paypal which turned out ot be false. We were asked in the Paypal email to send $900 to Joe George in Michingan for transportation of the RV. I hate to admit that I fell for it and proceeded to send the funds through Western Union as requested. The next day we received an additional email from Paypal stating an error occured in processing and Jack Martin had deosited additional funds ito our account so we could transfer them to Joe George. This raised my suspicions and we contacted Paypal. They let us know that they would never direct funds transfers through Western Union and that we had been scammed. I filed a report with US Federal Internet Crimes and am posting this in hopes others will not be scammed by this duo.
