Hi. I'm in TX. The company onestopmotors (onestopmotors.com) in question is in Nevada. The company scans Craigslist ads for vehicles for sale and if you put a phone number in. Then they call you, even though the ad says no commercial contact allowed. They have a good sales pitch that they can place an "ad campaign" that gets national and canadian notice at a better price then you are selling it for for a fee of $499. Since I needed to sell a boat quickly since I lost my job, I though this might be a good help. But I got a lower price of $399. I paid with credit card. You then supply pictures and a description. They also claim that they will place an Ebay ad. Ultimately, and after they got the money, they put up a bunch of crummy websites for ads, and most were non-functional or the search function didn't work. And they never placed an Ebay ad. I complained and they made a bunch of promises that amounted to nothing. In 4 months I never got a single call. I then searched for the company name and "scam" and found 100s of similar complaints. An obvious scam. I tried to dispute it and my credit card company turned me down twice after they told me on the phone that they could resolve the situation. They came up with the lamest excuses and were unmoved by the situation. And they said that they approached the company twice for arbitration and the company refused. So now I'm faced with either paying the card or small claims court.
I'm trying to figure out if I should simply sue the company in question or should I also ad the Chase credit card company to the suit? Any and all suggestions are welcome. Thanks. Jeff
