  • We are four persons now having the same problem and got ripped. I am from Montreal and I reported my loss to this site, to the Better Business Bureau of Oregon and the department of Justice of Oregon. I hope they will create a forum group in order that we may gather and exchange information.

  • This is the Internet www.doj.state.or.us. I see that you have been verified. That is good. I was verified also. Maybe our cases will be handled here. But I suggest that you still make a complaint. More we see the name in Internet, more people will be diligent. I am the first one to make a complaint. When I checked before I sent my cheques nothing appeared on this company. Now we see a lot of complaints.

  • I made a complaint at the Department of Justice but I cannot see that they took it. I suggest that you make your complaint at the Better Business Bureau as they already sent a letter and they gave them a deadline to respond.

  • Hi Mal - Just to know if the guy from this company was able to reach you. Was he asking for another money being the escrow tax? Did you already paid that amount? If so, I wonder what he wants from you now?

  • Hi Mal - Do you have the name of the company. Maybe you can check it on Better Business Bureau in LA to see if it is registered or send it to me and I will check if I can find it on the Internet and with the BBB. It is too bad because I work in a law firm in Québec but I cannot do anything to solve my problem as I do not know how it works in the US. They already got money from you and they are trying again. I have to call the Scotiabank as I sent them an email and they said that it was serious as they used their name to get money from me. I have to call them back to see if they can locate someone with the account number and the person to whom the funds were transferred. I think that it is time now to do something because they think that we forgot about them. Keep me posted.
