Last month I received a EMAIL from a buyer interested to buy my phone from mudah. I did not respond cause I've read many cases about scam, and what made me suspicious was it was email. Why contact me through email when I place my number in the ads clearly?
I have done a few sales in mudah and let me tell u, all of them either call me directly or SMS or some whatsapp.
Because everyone know it is faster than sending email and hoping for it to reply. So email already something suspicious.

I posted an ad from Mudah and also got somebody interested in buying my iPhone and claimed to be from US.

The buyer claimed that the payment has been done, and I got an email like this :

Dear **************,
                 This email confirms that you have been paid the total sum of    rm 1070  including shipping charges by your buyer Mr West Credit Europe Bank Plc and be informed that the amount has been deducted from your buyer's current account to be credited into your account .Thanks!

and at the bottom of the e-mail ,

***IMPORTANT NOTICE*** This  payment is for the purchased item [Phone] your buyer indicate that the shipment must be made through POSLAJU, and know that we have completed the procedure of the transfer of the full payment into your account. The transfer has been processed and approved and the funds has been debited to the buyer's account, but it shall not be credited to your account until you SHIP the product and send the shipping tracking number to us at this Customer Care: (credit.europe@v.gg) so that we can be sure that the transaction will be safe, This is a security measure from our Bank to protect both the buyer and seller from fraud and not to allow account been compromised, the system is being used in compliance with the Consumer Protection Program (CPP) If you have questions, do not hesitate to contact us for assistance (credit.europe@v.gg). Thanks for your patronage.

WHY IS IT HOTMAIL???

And the buyer is threatening me that FBI is involved in this and has been informed about this. Is that even legal?? They have to make a clear payment right? Right? I'm quite afraid right now, this is my first time selling items on Mudah.my

don't worry. as a matter a fact u can ask them go and die. all this are tactic, as long as the money is not with u, u have every right not to send the item.
by the way, its obvious FBI won't deal with this small matter lol. this is only rm1k, FBI got other bigger case to worry about

Oh Gosh Luckily I came across this forum, I was about to ship out the item today but my instinct told me it might be scam, so I go Google scam in mudah.my and really the emails details all exactly the same. I some more received an email and claim that they are interpol and if I don't ship the item within 24 hours I will be arrested! Damn~

So thankful that din lost my thousand bucks. But I have given my bank details to them, will it have any problem?

no problem. they cannot do anything with just ur acc details. even if they plan to draw out money they need some sort of authorization, eg: signature, password, etc..

Everything should be fine if u follow the rule of thumb,
1. Always do COD only
2. For postage, never ever post it unless the money is in ur bank account, NO MATTER WHAT, no money no talk
