InterParcel
Complaint 156165 Details

I didn't think that it was a scam as the site looked legit. Except the new name they are using is [email protected]; and the link they are using as interparcel is: http://www.bccan-interparcel.com/en_language.internet.transactions/third.party.html . I also sent it to Bolton, UK first to "Carla Aston" and then they had me switch it to a "Eddie Tepper". There has to be a way that UK police and western union can link together to catch these perps. This is ridiculous. Craigslist should be doing something to stop all these scams. I have also filed complaints with FTC, and Econsumer.gov .

Wish I found this site sooner, and didn't western union it to them when Western union told me that the machine wasn't taking my us currency. Hopefully UK authorities and western union can do something about.
