Jeremy Bins
Complaint 83 Details

In the beginning (March 2011) I was searching for a job in the transportation category. Having worked for Enterprise Rent-A-Car, driving was my most favorable position.

Knowing that Craigslist had a few resources, I started my job search there. I saw an advertisement for a chauffuer driver for vacationing individuals. Excitedly, I responded to the ad.

Around April 4, 2011, I found a reply from "Jeremy Bins, [email protected]". This person gladly accepted me as the driver and asked me to send some information to conduct background checks etc. In a few days another detailed response sat unread in my inbox. Upon opening, I read that my client would be vacationing in my area and that he would notify me when to pick her up. He informed me that I would be responsible in setting up the account to rent the car from some company. (No actual company existed). He told me that in a few days I would be recieving a check from our customer, that I need to deposit in my ATM and the next day advance the cash Western Union to an Anquennete Brown in Michigan.

All the while, maintaining the illusion of a professional, this Jeremy Bins had other plans. The check ended up not clearing in my bank account so I now owe my bank nearly 3,000 US dollars. At the age of 19, this is serious money we're talking here.

The check didn't clear and I told Jeremy this in several emails. He replied with another USPS tracking number. He continued sending me checks!!

So I have few options, two of which are; bankruptcy or repaying the money to the bank.

I have contacted many agencies including the Secret Service, my state senators, local law enforcement and Attorney General. ALL OF WHICH OFFERED NO HELP. The most ironic thing is this individual could be sitting on top of millions of unsuspecting victims money. He is continually robbing people and getting away with it!! I searched his IP address and discovered he was actually in CA while all checks were coming from MI.

I don't expect anybody to let me cry on their shoulder. This is me reaching out once again, leaving a trail, so that one day I might find justice.

INTERNET IS A HUGE PRIVELEGE AND WITH PRIVELEGES COME RESPONSIBILITY.

I am very content to have found Scam Book. If any person who reads this was the victim of the same type of scam, feel free to contact me. We need to unite victims!
