Total money lost $9,770
Type of a scam Investment
Crandall ‘Glen’ Myers knew I had a small amount of cash on hand. He offered to help my son and I by investing in his trucking business. I would front the money for a semi and he would run loads on it and I would get a weekly payment of $800 from his business.
He took my initial investment, then needed more money to cover the insurance for a new policy on the semi. I was also asked to loan him money for a ‘flat’ tire, for fuel in the semi more than one occasion.
Once the semi deal seemed like it wasn’t going to be profitable, Mr. Myers decided it was time to dump money into a contracting business. I loaned him money to get the business up and running and he quit answering my calls and texts.
I’ve invested and loaned Mr. Myers almost $10,000. This amount includes $1500, the money I loaned him he gave me the title to his personal Ford F-150 truck, which I still have and he has never paid me back. He has moved and sometimes his phone is shut off. But even when it is on, he won’t return my calls or my texts.
He used his scam against me by saying he was doing this to help me and my infant son. My son has multiple congenital anomalies. And was receiving SSI each month.
Because of all the money I have loaned Mr. Crandall GLEN Myers, I have had to work more to pay my bills. In the mean time, I now make too much money for my son to continue receiving his SSI benefit which wasn’t a significant amount, but still is a huge loss for us financially.
