Thank you for having the courage to share your story 1938Sears.

My dad believes he got scammed by William Stevenson of West Newton, PA a few days ago. Stevenson responded to my dad's ad in Wheels of Time magazine for a significant part needed for his antique truck. Same deal--just pay $250 shipping via Western Union so he can pay his trucker buddy and it'll be there in 7 days. If it's satisfactory, send the balance. Satisfaction guaranteed.

When my dad told me this too--good-to-be-true story that included Western Union, I immediately suspected a scam, found 1938Sears' post here and contacted my dad with the bad news. He reported it to his local (California) police department. Further discussions with victims and others have convinced me that Stevenson is doing this many, many people, probably on a daily basis.

The information he gives is his real name, William Stevenson. The cell phone number that he's currently using is (724) 797-8536. The number he gives for "Richard", his "trucker buddy" who "doesn't answer the phone when he's driving" is (724) 810-1199. Apparently, Stevenson answers ads that are some distance away so when the person realizes they've been scammed out of $250, it's not worth it to come to West Newton to dot his eye for him.

Other victims are encouraged to contact Officer Zemba at West Newton, Pennsylvania PD. Please FAX your information to him at: (724) 833-0019. Also, contact the publication where you placed your ad and tell them you were--or almost were--scammed so they can alert other readers not to wire money to anybody unless they have the item in hand. Since even money orders can be counterfeit, PayPal would be a more secure transaction.

I hope there are additional penalties waiting for him for commiting a crime against the elderly, in addition to wire fraud across state lines.

My dad gave me permission to offer his contact information to anyone who would like to discuss this with him. Please remember that he's on Pacific Time, three hours earlier than Eastern Time.

Today's Featured Article - Memories of an IH Super A When I was ? up to 10, I worked on my Papaw's farm in Greeneville, TN every summer. As I grew older (7), it was the thrill of my day to ride or drive on the tractor. My Papaw had a 1954 IH Super A that he bought to replace a Cub. My Papaw raised "baccer" (tobacco) and corn with the Super A, but the fondest memory was of the sawmill. He owned a small sawmill for sawing "baccer" sticks. The Super A was the powerplant. When I was old enough (7 or 8), I would get up early and be dressed to ... [Read Article]
