Description

In the busy tourist area of Seattle on 1st Ave near Pike Place Public Market, I was approached by two African American men. One was probably in his early to mid thirties and tall. The other looked younger about 20 and was shorter. They were both nicely dressed and looked well groomed. They had a stack of CD's and claimed that the older taller man was part of an organization that teaches students to become musicians and how to break into the business. The younger shorter one claimed he was a student. They shoved two cd's in my hand and asked if I would be willing to donate $5 per cd. I don't mind donating for causes that help youth but I didn't have cash. They had portable credit card readers and asked me to make a donation with my card. I gave each of them a $5 donation for the two cd's. However, when I checked my statement, the older one had charged $700 to my card and the younger one had charged $2,205. The business names on the transactions were THREECARSOLUTIONS LLC, SEATTLE WA and UNLCE BUDDY'S LOGISITICS & SOLUTIONS LLC NEWCASTLE WA, respectively. I was able to find info on Washington's Secretary of State for Uncle Buddy's but nothing came up for Three Car Solution LLC.
