Submitted this review about Matrix Movers
Review made Live: 3/18/2015 5:05:00 PM
I was reading a recent Yelp review for YBT Vanlines, Brooklyn NY in which the reviewer said “Like all scammers they also go by a second name, Matrix Movers”. This is true, in fact moving company scammers will often have many more than two! YBT Vanlines and Matrix Movers are indeed related, they have the same U.S. DOT # 1847032 and MC # 668982. The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) website says that YBT Vanlines are doing business as Matrix Movers and that U.S. DOT# 1847032 has “no current for-hire operating authority with FMCSA”. The FMCSA give the telephone number as (917) 633-4767 which happens to be the same number as newyorklocalmovers.com and it doesn’t take long to find other related companies such as movingtruck.com, mover-new-york.com and semidrivingjobs.com. The Better Business Bureau website says that “There is an ALERT on YBT Vanlines” and lists a non-existent website ybtvanlines.com and an undeliverable physical address for the company. Keeping all this in mind would you expect to see 484 consecutive 5 star reviews over 103 days on MoverReviews.com for Matrix Movers? If you were aware of the prevalence of fake reviews then it would probably not surprise you. We know that fake reviews are endemic in the moving industry and we have talked about them before (Moving Company Fake Reviews) but this is one of the most idiotic attempts to fool consumers that I have seen.
