Consumer Report

I am the victim of a scam where I received two checks for $2800 each. I was told to "mystery shop" at Sears & Western Union, then send $2600 twice by Western Union to one of their "satellite" locations in the Phillipines. I am still receiving e-mails from this person as of today, asking me to do the same process again.

My bank didn't check to see that the checks were counterfeit. It's my understanding that any "Cashiers" checks over $1,000 need to be verified by the bank they are drawn on.in this case it was Regents Bank. However, my bank cashed them both out right with no questions asked. Now my bank closed my account & seized my only source of income, my SSDI check. This caused me not to be able to pay my mortgage or any other bills for the month of June. I tried to get my bank to talk to me about the events surrounding this scam, but they refused & turned me over to collections in the amount of $5,500. I was treated like the perpetrator instead of the victim. I don't feel that I'm responsible for this money, as I didn't profit from this except for $400 which I was told I earned for the "Mystery Shops'.

What is really frustrating is I have contacted the local police, the Colorado Attorney General, Western Union, The Federal Trade Commission, as well as the NY Attorney General to try & stop these people from scamming any others. All agencies said that there was nothing they could do, so these crooks are still out there commiting fraud & duping other poor people out of money they don't have.

Also, when you research Remedial Surveys, it shows 74 locations internationally. The checks are being sent from White Plains, NY by a person named Carolyn Johnson, but all communications are by e-mail & phone calls from Andre Casa, phone #315-665-1100. I just want these people stopped & caught for their actions.

I wish I could recoup some of my money, but everyone tells me "sorry, it's your loss." I will possibly lose my home, as my Mortgage Company won't work with me either. I know that others are experiencing the same problem, so someone needs to stop these people!
