Cellforcash is a company that is run out of Ocala, FL by a guy called Mike Mosieur. They claim that they will buy your used cell phones, test and verify them, and then send you a check for an agreed upon amount WITHIN 45 days. This is in their User Agreement as stated on their website (under FAQs). My story: According to their own website, based on my phone's condition (pristine), they would pay me $240 for my phone once its condition was verified. Sent them my late model 32GB 3GS IPhone. Placed My Order on: 07/12/2010
They sent me a postage paid box: 07/13/2010
They received my phone on: 07/29/2010
They Verified my phone on: 08/05/2010 Guess what? Its over 100 days and no check. If you email these guys before the 45 days they have in their User Agreement, they will quote you that. One of the last emails I received from them basically said "Your request is being sent to the accounting department". That was over 3 weeks ago. Also asked them to return my phone (I have its serial #) and still nothing. I should have seen this coming a mile away. Reasons why, in my opinion (and now based on my experience), why this is a scam: 1)No phone number ANYWHERE on their website (www.cellforcash.com).
2)The guy who supposedly runs this joint, Mike Mosieur, uses a Yahoo! email address ([email protected]). Have you ever heard of a reputable company using Yahoo! for their company email?
3)All mail is sent to a PO Box. No physical address anywhere on their website. I am also contacting the Today Show (where they featured this company), the New York Times, my own local paper, the media in Ocala, FL, the local Sheriff's department and consumer advocate Clark Howard. I am also setting up a separate Facebook page devoted to this guy and his company and the state of my transaction.

In my books, when you take something from someone and promise to pay them an agreed amount within a certain time, you do it. Otherwise, its called THEFT. That's what Mike Mosieur and cellforcash are doing to me. My advice: Cell your phone to a friend or sell it on EBAY. You'll be FAR FAR better off.
