Hi Everyone,

Just wanted to publicly post here the SEAN CRAIG and DEBBIE CRAIG are a complete scam. Never trust people who do not reply to you on forum. Chances are they are thieves. As a warning to new members, never send money to someone who says "this is not a scam" .

After many requests for my money back after paying for films i did not receive, I wanted to ask for help here on forum. I took a chance and sent these people money to the following emails without a response, although before they get their money they are quite receptive.

Here are their email addresses:

cagerains@aol.com
and
callmeocto@aol.com

I took a chance knowing that these people would steal money and never send me films. To my dismay, it happened. These people, SEAN D. CRAIG and DEBORAH K. CRAIG from Rockford , Illinois or Cherry Valley, Illinois are thieves and scam artists, never do business with them for any reason.

They also operate under the ebay tag: letmebuyin

His telephone number is: 815-540-7596

This is the address that I've traced to them: 6257 Muirfield Lane Rockford, IL 61114

So sad to hear your story Gerard.

If you paid them through paypal you can submit a claim and get your money back. Have you tried it?

Hey Akshay (and anyone else that maybe in contact with them)...write them a note and let them know that they have been publicly outed as thieves. I spoke to a man named Chuck Valentine that worked with this scam artist, Sean Craig, and they had items on eBay together.

According to Chuck, who also runs an online business called Pool Cue World: http://www.poolcueworld.com -- Sean has scammed people out of tens of thousands of dollars. I will be the first one here to say that he also took me but, not ashamed to tell you how it happened.

When he posted these films he never replied...obviously. Later he re-listed these films again with prices and this is that list. I asked for Sigfreid and Nosferatu and he assured me that he would sen them if I sent the funds to "his wife" Debbie Craig at the email address - callmeocto@aol.com

I sent him payment and he sent me the films, I got them and saw that they were from the Benoit Community College. He mentioned he was selling these for a "friend". Later, I asked if any of the other films were still available and he told me they were. I decided to to buy those too, pretty much all of them except "One Week" -- which I already had. I made payment again to "his wife" and the same paypal address.

UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCE, NEVER SEND PAYMENT AS A GIFT

I must have been excited to get all of these films, eager to please him, and trying to hard to aviod paypal fees but, I sent it as a gift. Needless to say after many emails to reach him after many weeks of waiting, he never sent the items. Then one day, I was on eBay and noticed that someone was selling "One Week" from an eBay ID from Rockford Ill ncalled: chuck_1948 and I watched it.

It ended but did not bid on it, it had the Benoit Community College library markings that the prints of Sigfried and Nosferatu had. They were an exact match and so I followed another one of chuck_1948 items and won it with one bid. However, I thought this would be Sean Craig as a seller and was surprised it came from Chuck Valentine and and a different address.

I knew there was something very wrong here and waited until the holidays to bring it up so I wouldn't be ignored or forgotten otherwise. I left Chuck Valentine a message about Sean and I was very furious and demanded he return my call, which he did only minutes later. I asked for more information about Sean Craig and he was not married at all, his wife turns out to be.... his mother!

So it seems his mother is wrapped up in his schemes and is protecting him, obviously. Sean D. Craig is 28 years old, has cheated people he lives with out of money (in the neighborhood of $10,000) or more and according to Chuck Valentine, he is wanted by the police.

Chuck was not telling me everything but he mentioned some key things. That he is a con man, and he "no longer" works for Chuck. However, when I looked at Sean's ebay ID: letmebuyin , he uses chuck_1948 in his only two auctions he currently has online.

http://myworld.ebay.com/letmebuyin/&_trksid=p3984.m1436.l2754

Something smells very bad about their relationship but, I'll give Chuck the benefit of the doubt since, he now knows that Sean is con man and he has been notified by others as well myself who have been scammed out of money and are now attempting to "collect" or ask for refunds.

So Winbert, that is why I can not get my money back, I foolishly sent it as a GIFT through paypal to avoid fees! I've learned my lesson about monetary exchanges and can only ask for support on this Forum by either calling Sean directly and letting him know he can not run away from his past, sending him email stating the same or simply not bidding on any of his items on ebay that finance his criminal activities.

So, be very careful when making purchases out there! If you send a gift as a payment for an item expect, that you may not receive an item.

I am always wary about someone who comes on a forum ...doesn't interact and just post..."I will be accepting payments to paypal..."
That is a red flag for me. Unfortunately I almost got scammed by a seller in New Zealand who sold me some damaged Elmo Speakers. Lucky for me I contacted Paypal immediately and they placed the funds on hold. My money was returned to me and he did not get one red dime of my money. But....he put a claim in and said the US post damaged the speakers and he got to keep the reimbursement.!!
Sorry to hear that happened to you.

Gerald so sorry to hear about the scam, but I fear that most of us have been there at one point or another..I know I have been scammed a few times over the years, but also there have been times where I have experienced a friendly good deal with someone who wound up scamming a bunch of other people... Sometimes I think people are legitimate scammers, and other times there are those that start with good intentions and then fall on bad times and disappear....

I'll tell you what Gerald, If you email me offline I'll send you 2 x features for free, because I think what you are doing with the film club is great and want to help, and.....Hell it is the holidays and this should be the time when everything that happens to you is good stuff, so lets make some lemonade out of these Craig lemons........
