Once we hear from the Moose lodge we will have a better idea of what really went down.

40calPUNISHER · 07-06-2009

Just talked to Ron at the Moose and he said that there was never a raffle and he knows absolutley nothing about it. I gave him the short story of what is going on and his reply was "it sounds like you guys got scammed." I told him thanks and that someone may call him back to get more info if needed. He has my # if he finds anything out.

Thank you 40cal both for the phone call and for the abuse you took over at MGO. VUPD is on this and has some other angles of approach. We will report back as we know more.

Poster are asked to please continue to report if you sent money or have any other facts. Please keep the thread free of other opinion or color as this may turn into evidence if you catch my drift.

Facts:

*Never sent tickets.
*Gave unlisted address to have payments sent to. Possibly a prior address that he has fowarded to him (just a hunch).
*Real address is in Culver when you look him up in whitepages.
*He provided an email address of pinkie@culcom.net. Culcom just happens to be short for Culvercom, meaning the address in Culver is probably correct for him.
*Knox Moose Lodge knows nothing about this
*Donated a rifle but could not shell out for postage to get us our tickets.
*No one from MGO knows anything about this either.

Ok, that's what I was afraid of.

femurphy77 · 07-06-2009

O.k., based on the lack of knowledge on the part of the Moose Lodge, I filed a claim with paypal on the transfer of funds for the one "ticket" that I purchased. Having dealt with similar issues with evil-bay/paypal before I'm not holding my breath but in their "Reason for filing claim" one of the options is Fraud. The paypal account that was advertised, pinkie@culcom.net, appears to belong to "Jillian Sherer". They had a check off box asking if I will be willing to provide more info if asked. Obviously when that time comes I will provide a link to this thread. I would suggest that anyone else who used paypal to transfer funds should also file a complaint with them.

Well that was quick, paypal sent an e-mail to Jillian Sherer but they also closed the case as it didn't meet filing criteria. The activity took place more than 45 days ago so paypal won't pursue.

And Jillian Sherer's address is the same one listed for longrange.

Please, anyone who actually sent him money please send me a PM.
