ez2cy Posted January 18, 2009 Report Share Posted January 18, 2009 Anyone know anything about this site? I doubt it's linked to the U.S. government and you need to pay a fee to bid there. http://www.fbaauctions.com/listings/catego...CFRQhnAodCif1mg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whitestripes Posted January 21, 2009 Report Share Posted January 21, 2009 Nowhere does it say that it's linked to the US Gov't, it just has an eagle with an American flag on the top. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mardo Posted January 26, 2009 Report Share Posted January 26, 2009 This has the look of a scam site. First off, anything that is seized when a property or valuables are foreclosed on is owned by the lending institution that money is owed to. These are usually banks not the government, in some cases the government but mostly lending institutions. Since the valuables are the property of the debtor they are usually sold at auctions using reputable company's. Sometimes when the government seizes property they have their own auctions, years ago I used to work for the State Police and cars that were seized in drug related incidences were sold by the state at predetermines auctions as was the property of these individuals. One time some old lady bought a car from the auction and was having problems with the fuel pump. When she brought it to a mechanic they discovered around a 100k in the fuel tank......the state seized all of that money from her. I would not put any faith in something like this.
