Victim Location 22150
Total money lost $45,000
Type of a scam Travel/Vacations
27 people including my father in law purchased a travel package with Mohammed Meraj (owner) to Saudi leaving today at 5pm with Saudi Air. He charged from $2500-$3000 from each person.
When everyone arrived at the airport, we found out it was a scam and that the individual didn’t purchase anything. He sent everyone fake reservations under Saudi Air with everyone’s name on it, gave everyone visa (will have to confirm in the morning if it’s legit).
Everyone went to his office and he was no where to be found. Than serveral folks knew where he lived and went to Lorton to find out from his wife and kids that he left to Pakistan today at 11pm from IAD. They all filed a police report right away.
He stole over $45,000 in cash.
