A gentleman with email of [email protected] bought a wedding dress from me on Craigs LIst for $450 for his daughter in Nigeria. I mailed dress to address given. I was contacted by Jim Harry and told Nigeria Customs needed an additional $100 to release dress. I mailed $124 through Western Union on 8/10/2010. Next day Jim Harry calls me, emails me and texts me multiple times demanding an additional $140 to do a final release from Nigerian Customs. I email him back and tell him I have contacted real PayPal and sent them copies of his emails along with confirmation and verifications from PayPal. The real PayPal said the ones I received were phishing attemps and there were no monies in an account on hold for me. I gave Jim Harry the telephone number to call for PayPal and he insisted he always uses the one listed above of PayPal1worldservice.com. (Something like that). He continues to plead and beg me to send additional monies as he is in the UK and that is why things are messed up. I refused to budge and as of now I have no wedding dress, multiple phone numbers from this Jim Harry, and am out my money.
I made a police report, I contacted Western Union, I talked with PayPal and was advised by police to file this complaint. I can be reached at [email protected] if you care to assist me in obtaining my money and dress.
Please respond to me and capture these crooks!!!
