FBI contact info
 
Hi, long story short, I consigned my 1978 Z28 to a dealer in Michigan. I was called by the business owner on Aug 22 to see "if you lower your price $2,000.00 NOW, I have a cash deal and money will be wire today?" So I did, sent my banking info, hand got a text saying SENT.

Now there has been some issues they say about the wire transfer, so offer to overnight a cashiers cheque. That was 4 days ago. Tracking says the "package" is now in BEDFORD IL. It should have went from Michigan right to Ontario????

I have all documentation of correspondence, and tried

tips.fbi.gov

and

detroit.fbi.gov

And email say BOTH are bad and will not send. ANYONE HAVE A DIRECT EMAIL THAT IS NOT .GOV for FBI in Detroit?

Thank you,
John

Whereabouts in Michigan?

The "package" refers to the cashier's check?

I sold a car on the internet years ago and got a cashier's check that was counterfeit. I contacted the FBI and they were not interested.

Well that sucks. I was told by the RCMP, that the FBI have really started to crack down on the internet crime and with this being international with a Canadian registard car being sold in the USA, that is international.

Don't count on them caring, unless, you have evidence it is a ring with extensive activity. Occasional screwing of citizens isn't a big deal to them.
Same with the USPS inspectors of fraud and other mail crime. Just them mailing false documents is a crime, but again, if it isn't big enough to be worth their time, they don't do anything.

This is the contact info for Michigan as copied from the FBI website.

Maybe I missed it, but where is the car?

What dealer? I’ve seen this before, and it’s not a happy ending. I’m hoping you’re the 1st.

The car was brought to the dealer in Michigan from Canada.

RCMP said that actually it's not in their area. Actually about 15 yrs ago, most police departments in Canada have a officer that is in contact with Interpol for these over the boarder things. Due the the car NOT being imported into the USA from Canada can lead to this being an international case, charges can be brought in Canada or USA, as per RCMP.

Name will be revealed on Tuesday after discussion with law enforcement.
