Florida One, Inc
Complaint 129338 Details

Florida One claims to be a work-at-home business as a personal assistant. I checked out the company's website (www.itdac.com), called the office #(305) 517-7300; I thought it seemed legit. So I did an application, and I was callled about a week later. The company also sent me a confirmation of employment and my manager's name: Daniel Long. I had to do a few tasks during a trial period. After my first task, I was congratulated, told the client was very pleased, and sent my second task. The second task was harder, I had to contact an artist in Russia for a client, money was no option, and see if the artist would duplicate one of his pieces the client had purchased that was damaged in transport. I contacted the artist: Slobodeniuk Vladimir; email: [email protected]; website: http://slobodenvm.ru/; address: Russia, 413111, Saratovskaja Oblast, city Eigels, Krasnodarskaya Street, 14. I have several emails between Daniel Long and myself, and from the artist and myself. I completed the task, told the client was extremely happy. I got my third assignment, finished it and was told my trial period was over and I would be getting compensated for finishing. They asked how I would want to get paid, I set up an extra account at my bank for direct deposit. I never saw my trial period pay. I was then told the 2nd artist was so happy, he was willing to pay a bonus if I completed an extra task, and I would get paid an extra $100.00 if I completed it within 2 hours. The client would wire-transfer the money for the artist to my account, and I would have to pay the artist by moneygram for his services. I fell for it all. I went to my bank the morning the money was in my account, 06/20/2012, and I took out $9628.00 after asking the bank teller if everything looked ok and if the money had cleard. She said yes, so I thought everything was legit. So I took the money and sent it moneygram to two different people I was told was the artist assistants. Moneygram #1, $5000.00, to: Konstantin Chemeris, ref#41793423. Moneygram #2, $242.01, to: Konstantin Chemeris, ref #39796789. Moneygram #3, $3800.00, to: Diana Cherednichenko, ref# 25052521. I have made a report with Moneygram, ref #39796789; spoke with Mamadou, operator #422, he said he can give all information, even exactly where this money was picked up at. I have made a report with my bank, but they are keeping all the money I have in my account for bills and food. I can't pay my rent, or my other bills, and I am going to loose my house and my job. I made a report to the police economic crime department, ref #2012-028036. I have also reported this to the FBI, complaint ID: I1206222039176891. I don't know what else I can do. I've been victimized, and I'm being punished for making a mistake. I'm going to loose everything, and my bank doesn't care, and I just want to fix this problem.
