Put down a deposit fill payment in advance (total of $1200) on a vacation rental in NYC — 351 east 51st street (2 bedroom pent house as shown in craiglist ad — link here: http://newyork. Craigslist.org/mnh/vac/3281979193.html. Sent money via wire transer to Lynne Mayfield bank account at charton one. Never recd an agreement in return but he asked for $400 loan to refurbish apt. After a lot of angst, i agreed. Then after doing so, asked for another $350 loan. This is when things started to smell fishy. He also asked money to be sent via moneygram to richard modanado which i refused and rather sent thru wire transfer for paper trail. I have sent multiple emails to Dale regarding this and he has stopped replying. Somehow i found Lynne's phone number (dale had put it in one of the emails) and i spoke to her — she was shocked to know too. While she spoke to dale (she knows her), she is not aware of this and is herself shocked to find out. Very surprised, confused and shocked at all this. Already filed complaint with craiglist, now with FBI internet fraud cell and then I know which town Dale smith lives in so will be calling police there.
I noticed another complaint against dale smith for $350 3 days ago — so seems like im his second victoim
