Update from a previous post -- the site aheadcargodivision.com or www.aheadcargodivision.com is a scam. They have a FAKE Verisign logo, they claim their company is registered in Philadelphia, and their website domain is registered in Chicago. This scam usually involves tickets, motorcycles, or high valued items. The site is pretty much a fake escrow service. Don't let their fancy, professional looking website fool you. They also have no phone number on their website -- another bad sign. Company claims to be Ahead Division (PVT) LTD.
Fraud email reads:
Here is how i sell the tickets so you can inspect them before i receive payment and so we can both be protected . Go to www.aheadcargodivision.com , register with them, and get back to me when you have done that. Also read their pages so you know how they work. I will start a transaction with them as soon as you agree. They will take care of the shipping and of our transaction.
I will explain you how it works in steps :
1. I give them the tickets for packing and shipping
2. You send them the money
3. They send you the tickets
4. You receive the tickets and you will have a 3-30 days inspection period to inspect them and check the name on it ( i will receive the money ONLY if you agree to keep the tickets , if not you will be fully refunded by the shipping company )
5. If all is OK and you decide to keep the tickets I will receive the payment
Thanks ,
Robin
They refuse to use any other escrow service, also a red flag!

Wow-- I don't think I would have realized that this was a scam. What are the names of well-known escrow services that are reliable? I don't even know how to pick out a legitimate one from the bunch!
