I found a boat on craigslist for sale. I spoke with the owner via emails, [email protected], through more than 20 emails. He informed me that the sale would go through the company Pro Auto Depot for the financial transaction. I looked at the company website, proautodepot.com, and everything seemed legit. I spoke with a rep at pro auto depot, who called me back after I left a voice mail. He instructed me on how to complete the transaction. I registered on the website and started the process. I did a title search on the boat and trailer and nothing came out out of sorts. I received payment information by email from Pro Auto Depot payment center. I instructed my bank to complete the wire transfer to the Chase bank account. I could log into the website to check the transaction. The boat was in Buffalo,NY at a storage facility. I did not travel to see the boat in person. All pictures were online. According to the Pro Auto Depot website and the person, Christopher, I spoke with, I had a 7 day money back guarantee, after I took possession of the boat. I received through emails, a bill of sale and conformation. I was able to and are still able to log into the Pro Auto Depot website to see my transaction status. The boat was supposed to be delivered on 5/27/20 by 5pm, but I received an update on the Pro Auto Depot on the transaction page that the truck was involved in a minor accident with a car hitting the tire of the truck. I was informed that the truck needed to be fixed and that my boat would arrive on 5/28/20 by 5pm. ON 5/28/20 around 3:15 pm I was informed, via the website transaction status that, Pro Auto Depot wants to inform me that due to the unexpected accident from 5/27/2020-8:45 am, the delivery of the item cannot take place. According to the accident report received from their insurance company, the item suffered damages and they are not allowed to deliver the item in such conditions. Consequently, their insurance company has automatically started the refund process for my transaction." It also states that the refund process will be initiated to the same bank account where my money came from, and would take from 1 to 3 business days. On June 1st, updated on the transaction status, it states the refund of the funds has been initiated on June, 1 2020, 9am, and that I should receive it in my account by June 3, 2020 3pm. ON June 3rd, the transaction status was changed to read that the money would be received into my account by June 4th, 2020 5pm. On June 4th, the Transaction status, was changed to it should reach my account within the next 5 business days. I have been in touch with my credit union all along the way. They kept saying that I don't need to start a fraud investigation yet as they are still in correspondence with me. A member from the fraud department contacted me today, June 4th, after I did not receive the money. I gave her all the information. She contacted the Chase Bank did a return request for the funds, but was informed by the Chase bank that they are no funds in the account. The TFCU fraud department rep then informed me that I need to file a police report, contact victims of internet crime to file a complaint, and possibly contact the FBI. The boat is currently still listed on Craigslist and I am still able to log into the Pro Auto Depot website to check transaction status. I have left numerious phone messages, live support requests, and call back requests on the website; but no one returned my requests. I was able to get a person through live chat on the website, but he would give me no information other than to wait for the funds. He kept saying that it's the banks not them. He would not contact me via phone, nor give me any information regarding the insurance carrier for the transport and accident. He said that the report was not finalized yet.

I was apparently scammed almost identical to this one, only I was buying a mini-excavator. The seller used name of Jeffrey Wright @ hatch group.org and the bank was also Chase Bank in New York City.

This is the most legitimate "Looking" business I have seen, I answered a craiglist ad for a boat ,seemed like a good deal not too good but enticing, Afterreading review on this page I did more research and came to the conclusion it indeed is a scam. They were pressuring me to complete transaction or would charge me for loading and unloading the boat on a flatbed for shipping. Well a boat on a trailer does not need to be loaded on a flatbed. I said I wanted to come to wharehouse to inspect and they said it was unavailable to see because it was prepped for shipping. The phantom seller name was Nathan Greene Almost got me for 20k stay away this is a scam not real like it seems.

I responded to a Craigslist add. It seemed too good to be true. A John Deere tractor that was asking about half of what comparable models were selling for. I didn’t get a response for weeks then all the sudden a had an email claiming the guy had been out of town. He said he had it on consignment at Pro Auto Depot. Everything seemed like it could be legit. His email seemed too canned and impersonal and the website payment method of wire transfer didn’t seem right. This is a very convincing scam. I hope you can do something. Someone is going to lose a lot of money.
