Individual Not Company Complaint

Selling On Internet With Honesty Resulted In Loss Of Money

- rochester ny
I placed items for sale on a reputable web site. I received email from an interested party. After many emails back and forth I sold 2000.00 worth of merchandise. The individual sent me a so called certified check (from an bank account that does not exist) I deposited my portion of the check for my merchandise. I was to send the merchandise via ups per his expense. Sending the remaining back to him via western union. I waited to send packages and money one day but that wasn't long enough. It took my bank a week to tell me that the check was a fake. The account does not exist in the bank that was listed on the check. The check was for 4500.00.

I then received a phone call from a golf course in Anaheim Ca where my packages were sent to, Unknown to me that it was a golf course. The gentleman told me that there was no such person employed by the golf course. I am paying to have the packages sent back to me via UPS costing me an additional 260.00. I will have my product back but I know that the money is gone. This person needs to pay for this crime of fraud not only to me but the bank he is forging checks from. I received another check for additional merchandise which he says he wants. The check is for 2500.00. I have the check and do not plan to be stupid enough to do anything with it. I am writing the attorney Generals Office in NYS.

I don't believe anything can be done. I guess I learned a very valuable lesson Not all people are honest....
