  PHILADELPHIA
  – United States Attorney Jennifer Arbittier Williams announced that
  Matthew Pardi, 37, of Fort Lauderdale, FL, and Ashley Lynn Hars, of
  Plantation, FL, and Pardi’s wholly owned corporation, Proud American
  Vanlines, LLC, formerly known as Moving Accounting Department, LLC, were
  charged by Indictment with wire fraud, interstate transportation of
  property obtained by fraud, and aggravated identity theft in connection
  with a scheme in which they held customers’ belongings for ransom.
  

  
  

  
  

  
  

  The Indictment alleges that over the course of more than three years,
  Pardi and Hars created a series of online profiles for moving
  companies, stealing the identities of legitimate companies to support
  their fake identities. The defendants falsely claimed that the companies
  were “family owned,” that they had been in business for over a decade
  and boasted more than a thousand satisfied customers. The defendants
  created false 5-Star reviews on their own websites and on legitimate
  review websites such as the Better Business Bureau and Yelp!, in order
  to trick customers into booking their moving services and providing
  deposits. According to the Indictment, once the customer was ensnared,
  the defendants routinely increased the estimate of their fees, both
  before the move was begun and after the goods were loaded onto the
  moving truck, in clear violation of federal regulations. If a customer
  refused to agree to pay the increased price, the defendants refused to
  deliver the customer’s household goods. As a result of the scheme, the
  defendants fraudulently obtained more than $12 million.

  
  

  As part of this scheme, the defendants and their associates created
  and did business under the following Pardi Company names and websites:
  American Eagle Moving (americaneaglemoving.net); Alliance Movers
  (alliancemoversinc.com); Titan Moving and Storage
  (titanmovingandstorage.com); First Call Relocations
  (firstcallrelocations.com); Trans World Van Lines, Inc.
  (transworldvanlinesinc.com, transworldvanlines.net); Safeway Moving
  System (safewaymovingsystem.com); Gateway Moving and Storage
  (gatewaymovingand-storage.com); and Prestige Worldwide Moving
  (prestigeworldwidemoving.com), among others.  They left in their wake
  victims from all over the country, including many from Philadelphia and
  surrounding suburbs.

  
  

  If you were victimized
  by any of the Pardi Companies listed in the indictment, we want to hear
  from you at [email protected].”

  
  

  An indictment is an accusation. A defendant is presumed innocent unless and until proven guilty.
