Scam Description
Purchased a transmission for my car online… website says 8-10 business days(Monday-Friday) to receive merchandise(transmission). I called at 11 business days and was told that the shipment was delayed 4 days… I waited and called at 5 days to find out what was going on and was told the truck broke down. Guaranteed to arrive the following Monday, nothing. I called Wednesday of that week to ask for my money back and was told that John would call me back in 1 hour, that went on for 1 week… then I was told that John was fired because he was taking money from the company. I talked to Robert… and Mike(the manager) and explained my issue. He wasn’t interested in making things right. He just told me not to buy anything online and hung up.
