Total money lost $1,915.75
Type of a scam Fake Check/Money Order
Aries Graphics Studio was introduced as an automotive wrap installer in part of a paid advertising job. The wrap company sent me a JP Morgan Chase check to cover one week’s pay and the installer’s fee for the wrap. They sent me $1915.75. $1300 was for the installer and the installer contacted me by email telling me how to transfer the money. They wanted it the same day by walmart2walmart transfer or moneygram so that they could order the materials for a Monday or Tuesday installation. The recipient of the funds was listed as JoAnn Crist of Hampton, VA. Jimmy Alexis Cadenas of Corper Wrap (the advertising company) text me to confirm the amount to be transferred and to confirm that the installation had been scheduled. I haven’t heard from anyone since. Now I see that my bank has returned the check and my account is short that amount. Good times.
