Looking forward to hearing from you! Best Regards,
I suppose when they sent me this they didn't realize I was the person they had just scammed, and they were trying to lure a new victim in to scam. Hmmmmmmmmmm???????????
Now the company that I sent it thru was Easy phones 2 go ltd. All 3 of these companies are trustpass members thru alibaba, either someone is going thru and hacking into legit companies and stealing their trustpass logo claiming to be them and scamming tons of people by taking they're money and not sending anything!!! The sad thing is I've read tons of people who have lost more like $10,000 to scams on alibaba involving cell phones, someone needs to put an end to this, this is ridiculous!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Instead of replying on this blog you can e-mail me if you want to help at juliamercer@yahoo.com
I have now contacted: Western Union and reported it as fraud British Police and reported fraud Attorney general of England and Wales Internet Crime Complaint Center Alibaba's community, forums, and suspicious companys and fraud FBI Better Business Bureau My states Attorney general for my state Yvonne who own the actual store
whew............that took forever, hope it helps!! Yeah, western union says it's not their fault but if the only way a person can pick it up is through their shpuldn't it be JUST the exact name I sent it too. I also contacted several international attorney's that deal with fraud, or civil litagation and asked what I can do in regards to western union refunding me the money since they released it under a different name and if I could sue Carolina Lim along with including any other people yvonne found that got scammed by the same person possibly and of course Yvonne herself for them stealing her business identity. Hopefully, people will learn from my dumb and nieve mistake and be very careful when prchasing electronics overseas!!! Thanks again guys!!!
Okay, come to find out this person picked up the money under a somewhat different name then the name I sent it under. I sent in to Carolyn Lim, they picked it up under Carolina Lim. I called western union and reported it to them as fraud, and on the name thing, they said the name could be a couple letters off. I don't why or how it can legally be a couple letters off, that's not who I sent the money to. So if someone sends money to me as Julia Mercer a male by the name of Julian Mercer could pick it up? Hmmmmmm, to me that's just helping people to commit fraud, I think even though it sounds similiar Western Union should not be allowed by law to release money to anyone unless their matches exactly, don't you think? Should I hire an attorney, or is it useless at this point? Any ideas????
I think your right, my husband showed me that and it was ridulous to read!!! My western union transfer was days ago, I think it's way to late. I'm sure they ran right out and got that right away!!!!!!!!! arghhhhhhh! Unless, you think it's possible I'll try it! I feel like such an idiot, I wish they were open right now!
Wish I knew where the hell these powersellers got all their cell phones and stuff they sell. I guess I have a-lot of work to do to try and find out. I think your right Robin I have never actually ordered anything from tradekey. I had been using alibaba. I had a nice lady who had been scammed who told me to stay away from there. The 10 laptops I was supposed to order but I didn't have the money for that so I ordered one and one laptop and I was supposed to be ordering 3 from someone else, because it was cheaper. Oh my husband says yes I'm a histrionic, and he's laughing I haven't read that link yet.......I assume it's probably not something I'll like ??????? Since he's laughing and all!!!!
We found this but I don't think it's real, is it? It says Carolyn Lim is wanted by the FBI? What do you think I think it's fake. I would like to find out she IS wanted by the FBI so I can report my case to them too, how do I find that info, anyone know??
I appreciate your help with everything. I certainly am a real person just to prove it you can look me up on myspace under my e-mail address juliamercer@yahoo.com Our display name is Julia, Damon, and Valencia, Valencia would be our daughter. It is a publically viewable website not private. (although I do have a private profile) My public profile is used so I can send my son comments while he is with his father in kansas city. My private profile is private because it has material on it I don't want my child to see. (Inappropriate pictures in my comments) Here's the link, see for yourself.............. http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.viewprofile&friendid=167562872
Unless your someone in my family or a mother that has a website, or my best-friend I don't add anyone!!! My other profile on myspace is my very silly one (very adult oriented) Thanks guys for your help, seriously!!!!!! I hope all is forgiven, you're right I certainely didn't want to admit or believe I was scammed or duped in anyways. Believe me I'm very upset about the whole situation. I paid western union.........yeah, I know, STUPID!!!!! It was a verifiable company what can I say. I'll know better next time!!! Thanks for your insight robin. I assume it's Robin?
also just in case that doesn't work here's the e-mail address from the scammer. We have already paid to find his information thru this service..........
"I've found myself using my PC for a lot of conversations lately, and I'm also considering recording a podcast to share with anyone who will listen. There are tons of USB headset / microphones out there, and I'm hoping someone has some solid recommendations based on experience. I'll consider both headsets and standalone mics, by the way, but I'd like to keep the bill under $100 if possible. Help!"
