I, much like Rana who filed a report from Pennsylvania, went through the EXACT same situation. Word for word. All the way down the the transaction number. I only wish I would have found this site in time. I made the initial 30% down. As mentioned, they then asked for an additional 30% prior to receiving the vehicle. The went as far as linking the e-mails to moneybookers.com. I don't think that moneybookers is the company who is doing the scamming. I think we are dealing with a group of individuals who mimiced moneybookers as much as possible so all consuemer reports on "moneybookers.com" came back positive. They were able to create a live chat online feature encrypted in the e-mail. Once I gave them my inital deposit, the link was changed to "offline" and I have yet to see it active again. I have lost ALL contact with Mr Shuck who I was originally speaking to (the so called owner of the car). I did ALL my homework. The VIN number clears, moneybookers is a legit company etc. They are even replicating features from moneybookers website. Logos, security features etc. PLEASE do not fall for this scam! The dead give away are 2 things. Your e-mails from the alleged company will be [email protected] rather than @moneybookers.com as advertised on the website. Also, after further research, moneybookers REQUIRES a registration process prior to a transaction which I was never asked to do. They would have never asked us to send money via MoneyGram as requested by the scam artists. I am so sorry if you have already invested money into a scam as such but please put your word out there as I am to prevent anyone else from wasting their savings!
