thanks guys for everyone who offered to help, i appreciate it! i really do..i called my famiily over last night and had the stuff moved inside. so its been delt with i guess.

I contacted Wendy whos the Lead Investigator for this case. From what she told me, the police is trying to find as many casses as they can to charge the owner and they'll be calling me sometime soon and im going to make sure i follow up with wendy who works for ministry of consumer services.

i don't even care about the money at this poiint, its just how they dumped everything in the driveway, Last night, my dad was saying he has a feeling they were going to run away and to park my car front of the truck, when i came back with the keys, they had already left.

its a lession learned, READ THE FINE PRINTS. and never trust what anyone says over the phone or face to face cuz end of the day its the fine prints.

Sorry to hear about this. You hire movers to make the day a little less stressful and then you get screwed like this. Thanks for pointing this out. Very sad that we have scammers like this in our community.

Good luck with the case and I hope it works out in your favour!

Sorry to read that Manbir. It's terrible to learn the hard way.

Good luck helping the case to lock these scammers up.

YES!!!
MADE MY DAY!!! woohooo!!!! thanks for the LINK,

two weeks ago, Det. Kevin Hooper called me to question what happened, took about 2 hours for the statement and to be honest i wasnt sure if i was going to make a difference but It feels good finally! I gave them all the numbers i had, cell phone numbers of truck driver etc. Really glad, i know i wont get my money back but to be honest i dont really care about the money, i just like to see them in jail and make sure next time people wont pull scams like these.

I'm just happy something was actually done, thought it was would just one of those one of stories, but they created a whole case, hopefully it sticks.
