Description
My husband was looking for a tractor on FB Marketplace. He found one offered by Gears Garage. My husband talked to the guy who had an Asian accent. He went to the bank and wired $9900. They were supposed to deliver it on 3.10.25. We returned from our vacation early to receive it, but nothing arrived. We called, but they would not pick up. They also did not respond to emails and texts we sent. The next day, we contacted our bank and they filed paperwork to reverse the transaction which was unsuccessful. We also filed a police report. Their website www.thegearsgarge.com is no longer valid. I found another listing on FB for the same tractor which tracks to www.thepremiumwheels.com, which was just created on 3.10.25.
