Person identified themselves as Tony Robinson and requested a quote for new countertop services. Once they received the quote from us which was for $6,049.60. They then said they would send a full check and that 50% was for the delivery/moving company. He asked for a favor, of which we should wire 50% to the moving company. Once we responded letting them know that we don't pay any third party, he stopped responding.

I received a letter in the mail which looks like a check for $199.00, above the amount it shows allocated waiver. Where my name is, it says to the order of and not pay to the order of. Just read on the ScamPulse.com site that someone else has received the same type of check.

Sent me a fake check to deposit as a prepayment for the mural they were going to do for one of my Instagram posts and had me send $250 to their "art provider" for art supplies for the mural. Realized it was a scam before I sent more money and received death threats to me and my family after I didn't send the rest of the money.

I listed my classic car on Autotrader.com and was immediately contacted by a "man" named Ben Kimmich, using email address [email protected] I responded to his email inquiring about the car for sale, things were fine first few emails, then he immediately wants to buy it site unseen for purchase price of $26,000. I asked if he wanted to see it, he acted like he was going to come by Saturday, but claims he lives in Dresher Pennsylvania...the address he gave me for the Bill of sale was not a valid address, (129 Sycamore St, Dresher, PA 19025) so that sent up even more red flags...starts priming me that the car would need to be shipped to him due to distance from Idaho to Pennsylvania. When I asked him about the incorrect address he said that was an error by him, gave me a different one, 120 Sycamore St...the whole thing was starting to get more fishy. I asked him if the number he used is the correct number to reach him at (774) 363-5221...he never responded to my specific identifying information (more red flags)
So then I start Googling his address, his name, his cell number provided and I came across another person with a car for sale on Autotrader.com! Who was sent a counterfeit cashiers check! And was almost scammed for $3000 shipping fee to Oregon! Be VERY AWARE, IF SOMETHING SEEMS SKETCHY, IT PROBABLY IS, NO one is going to send you that much money and not have the car in hand! I have notified Autotrader of his shenanigans.. and they are reporting this to their fraud department

in the other fraud transaction he used email address [email protected] see the report dated July 2, 2024...

Thanks for posting your experience. I'm currently dealing with the same phone number and email address that you list. I'm selling a motorcycle. He won't be scamming me, because of what I learned reading your post. Thank you!

My car was advertised on Classics.CarTrader.com I corresponded to texts from Ben Kimmich Orion 1-774-363-5221 to buy the car; a Certified Check (Bank of Arizona) was sent to me for the asking price ($24,500) plus $3000 for shipping. The check was deposited, and full funds were in my account (after 3 days). (On 7/1/24 2:24 PM) - Instructed to send via bank wire transfer $3000 (for shipping the car to CA) to Payee: Safeway Mover 9450 SW Gemini Dr Beaverton, OR 97008. Acct # 406302955530788653 (Receiving Finance Inst: Wells Fargo ABA 121000248 Swift Code WFBIUS6S). The wire transfer was delayed until following day. In the afternoon our bank SSFCU contacted us to say the deposited check was conterfeit; the funds were removed from my acct. Luckily, SSFCU was able to stop the wire transfer, so no money was lost.

I constantly receive mail from this sender related since obtaining my mortgage at my local bank. They send fake checks and use a lot of threatening language that makes the mailer look like a non-payment with "Final Notice," etc. It wastes a lot of time trying to decipher if it is something legitimate or a scam.

The check arrived via postal mail. There was no corresponding personal information regarding reason for check and/or services rendered. So, I opted on the cautious side and shredded the check and report it.

These scammers made a fake check and put my checking account number on the bottom of my check. Over 100$ was illegally withdrawn from my banking account. My bank didn't catch these and I had to tell my bank to close my bank account. The scammers use this fake company and many more. Saversclubllc.com IDGuardllc.com

I researched using 32 N Gould St wy and these scammers have been scamming people for many years and no one has put a stop to these scammers yet. I don't understand why this haven't been stopped by now. They have so many fake websites. It's unbelievable, how much money they are withdrawing illegally from all these hard working citizens. My bank may refund my money but I'm not 100% sure on this. I would love to catch these evil scammers.

Random lady who said she’s a painter texted me on Instagram saying she would like to paint a portrait of me for a showing and would pay and I accepted. She then emailed me a check saying to mobile deposit it and show for proof. Then later she said to wake up at 3 am to send her 2000 and also asked if my relatives had any bank. I blocked her but although she has my number she’s been threatening me that she will get into my account and make my account go into negatives and threatened to sue me for stealing her money.
