Description
I was forwarded an email regarding a piano being given away and the buyer would just pay for the moving. I emailed the person giving the piano away and “she” sent me to a moving company who had the piano. Brisk moving company responded that the delivery fee would be $563 according to my address. They required delivery payment before they would set up the delivery. So I foolishly wired money to him from my bank. Then this morning he emailed and said “we’ve hit a snag, the company is requiring a one time refundable insurance fee of $1300. I said no I was not paying anymore money upfront. He told me “he did his part” and didn’t agree to refund my money. I called my bank and they were opening up an investigation into fraud and he has cut off any further correspondence, and so have I.
