Fadli85 0 Posted June 19, 2010 Careful guys, my experience, if there's no HP number, and the location too far from you, just walk away.If the e-mail took sometime to reply, be cautious..If you called the number but kept get into voice mail, just walk away..One last thing, check the ad photo, do a Google image search and if you find the same image on Google, than walk away because it might be a fraud. I missed this part because I thought it was the real deal, turns out I searched google and the same photo came up, my heart just sank.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mushr00m 0 Posted June 19, 2010 you must have been looking for some exclusive stuff la bro.. but nevertheless, buying from the net (not just mudah, or ebay), we just have to be careful...anyway, what are you buying la bro??? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
undercoverbrother 0 Posted June 19, 2010 Basically if his first email to you sounded something like this (either in melayu or english).. then all i can say is nothing could be done, very sorry to hear your bad news.Quote :Saya ingin mulakan dengan sedikit info tentang barangan ini. Sebenarnya barangan ini ialah barang underwater (Ditahan Kastam). Sebab itulah barang ini murah. Saya mempunyai beberapa unit untuk dijual secepat mungkin, jadi, anda tidak perlu Bid. Anda boleh beli terus daripada saya. Oleh sebab stok saya terhad, jadi, siapa cepat dia dapat. Siapa membuat pembayaran dahulu, dia dapat.This scam has been running for very long time on ebay (maybe in mudah as well) and the sad thing is although countless of victims already lodged report to this date the operator's still running free, and still repeating the same scam over and over again. You can find out more about this in lowyat threads already got many victims posted about it, you'll find out they all got scammed the same exact way for example this one of them..http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/907845 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Fadli85 0 Posted June 20, 2010 bro mushr00m, not a toy, everybody, it's not collectible,it's a car accessoryundercoverbrother, no he didn't sound like that, and yes, there are already many cases written in Low Yat.net, and can be taken as precaution, some loss more than thousands of ringgit, buying electronic stuff....poor fellow.He sounded more like, "kalau boleh bank-in malam ni, esok saya pos(thursday) sebab Jumaat ofis tutup (Terengganu)"Well what to do, no point crying over spilled tomyam..oh, can someone post this up at LYN, hope this will warn others from this guy.

wildspirit 0 Posted June 20, 2010 Paypal kind like secure source. You bank in directly to seller you have no proper documents to be associate with and third party observation. But you do have account no where you can check with the bank and logged police report. Good luck. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

aphong2681 0 Posted June 21, 2010 Sorry to hear this bro. Did the fella giv you the tracking no.? But normally the Pos Malaysia tracking no. is not updated in real-time. Even if CIMB might be able to freeze the a/c. it might have been too late as d fella could have withdrawn d cash. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
