Mixitforme.com under FBI investigation?

Seems so based on these two reports provided below
http://www.rhodeisland.bbb.org/commo...html?bid=17135

http://www.turnto10.com/news/8237636/detail.html


Summary from links

BBB.org
Government Actions

According to an NBC 10 News report that appeared on WJAR TV-10 (www.turnto10.com) on 03/24/2006 Mixitforme.Com is being investigated by the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) as a result of complaints from the company’s customers who are claiming that they have paid for millions of dollars of merchandise and did not receive products.
We are attempting to confirm this information, however, at this time, the FBI has no comment.

It's over for them....

According to Chan 10 news noon report (WJAR in Prov, RI) their offices (Mixitforme) were raided this morning. The complete story will be broadcast on the six o'clock report.

You can go to WJAR's site for the complete story after the report at six.

About time a company like this gets its fair share

Great report. Actually, it was the lead story at 6pm. Glad to see they will be probably be prosecuted and I hope all that were scammed get their money back.

I'm currently pursuing a suit against JT Exports and Cary Peterson (also known as RADMAI). They scammed a whole bunch of people who thought they ordered authentic Ipods but received fakes. Cary says it was not his fault as he was the middleman. I think a court would find differently with all the evidence against him.

So, in summary, stay away from Mixitforme and JT Exports.

Well, their offices are officially gone. The Biggles toy store is gone and the building is for rent.

I went by their old location the other day and it's completely gone. :/

MixitForME and Coyotego.com are supposedly the same company

Another company that just went belly up is CoyoteGo.com and is supposedly ran by the same people. A guy named David Slade involved in MixitForMe is possibly Salde Austin of Coyotego.com. See this news report from New Mexico.

I had started this particular thread back in March and followed the Coyotego.com thread as well. I was surprised to see it was David Andrews aka Slade aka????again. Wow.

Does anyone know why prosecution was not pursued in RI? There was very little time between the collapse of one dual business, and the start of another, way out in AZ.

They weren't charged of anything at the time of the raid so they weren't held. They disappeared shortly thereafter. Warrants are probably out on them.
