I reserved a home in the Florida Key with the internet company called Vacation Homes Lodging. Upon requesting information about the home for rent I received an email asking for my contact information if interested in renting the home. When the information was provided a man named Joseph Linderman (he had a thick accent) called my cell to ask if I was interested in renting the property. He recommend I do a wire transfer to his wife's account in order to reserve the room because the dates were only a few days away. When the transaction was completed he emailed me a receipt and told me to call when I arrive at the vacation rental.
When I arrived at the home he did not answer his phone and the women at the house said that her house has been used for multiple scams and I need to notify the police. I went back to the website the next day and he changed the address but it is still in the Florida keys. A police report was filed and I'm out $410. It was the worst Birthday ever. I hope this guy gets caught.
