Type of a scam Online Purchase
Wanted to buy a van from website and got a text message from daughter saying her mom is *** and she would contact me via email. Michelle contacted me with story about the van having a bad memory after passing of husband and that she and and daughter where moving to Springfield, Mo to live with her parents and that I would be contacted by a company by the name of DVV shipping and they would bring the van to me in Houston and that if I didn’t like it within 5 days, I would get my money back but I had to put the money in some escrow account with DVV shipping. I got an attorney involved for investigation purposes coz that website was trying to convince me that it was best I only send them the money on ways I couldn’t “follow the money”. Well the attorney got back to me and informed me this was a “scam”. He also sent me a story from this site that is similar to mine.
