Forumer you are complaining against: LIM CHIN WEI

Item being sold/bought: LV Neverfull MM & Tivoli GM

Original thread link: Mudah.my

Date of transaction: 1st August 2010

Details of the seller :

NAME : LIM CHIN WEI
HP : 016-5082355
IC: 810131-14-5180
MBB ACCT : 1583-1404-5709
BRAND OF BANK : GREEN TOWN, PERAK
EMAIL : nichole_0131@yahoo.com

Details of the complaint : I browse through mudah.my on 31st July and found seller name Nichole_ann that sells LV bags. I am interested with her LV Tivoli GM and Neverfull MM and decided to send her an email asking for more pictures and details.
She replied my emails by providing more pictures and details of the bags and asked for my contact no for easy communication. She said will reserve the bags for me till Monday.

On Sunday afternoon, she called my hp and talk more about the bags and I confronted her why she wanna sells the bag. She sound so friendly and geniune. She said the bags does not suit her, this n that and wanna buy a new LV bags. She really sound so genuine, of coz.

After negotiation to 4.2k for the bags, she said she is now at Penang but originally from KL. She said will postage to me once I made the payment to her. I told her many times that I do not feel good to postage but don’t know why Iam like spelled and stupid enough to transfer the money to her on 1st August nite. She guaranteed me that she is genuine and authentic seller. After some details of the banking and postage, I wait patiently for the tracking no on Monday. She said, if I found anything wrong with the bags, even lost during delivery, she will full refund to me.

On the afternoon, I finally text her for the tracking no and she claimed her friends have not give her the LV Box. Then I told her she must post the bags to me 1st and do a 2nd postage for the Box. Finally she replied me that she will do the postage immediately in the Tuesday morning and choose the 1day delivery. That’s keep my mouth shut for a day.

The nxt day morning, I tried to call her hp and text her and her reply getting slow. I already feel fishy about it but I know its too late dy.

She text me in the 11am ++ that she is going to nationwide to post the bags to me and I got no choice to wait patiently for the tracking no. Around 2pm + I text again and got no reply anymore. I called the no and the no been OFF till now.

I know been conned and I know iam being naïve and stupid to transfer the money, so I was just try to share with forumers here, afraid she might be doing her business here.

Pls do not rub salt on my wound and Iam seeking help from here, any other ways that I could trace or should I do ?

Ive already made a police report on Tuesday nite. Ive tried to find wether I could this person / more info but to no avail. Definitely, she is using new prepaid phone no and could be the email is newly opened too.

Many thanks for reading.

You sure the IC is correct? (The IC is confirmed fake)

http://www.jpn.gov.my/semakic

It's not even in the voting system, I guess this is the first time he/she scam too. Not much details about him/her.

Added on August 5, 2010, 12:09 pmConfirmed the IC is fake. Told by the officer from bank, this acccounts belongs to a man..

No one would give the real IC, even for those who are honest about their sales(at least prevent fraud), at least, now you can check IC and name matching or not by using the link I gave earlier. That will help you to prevent more con case in the future.

IC belong to a man? its 80 at the back..

bro apis, 80 at the back is confirm a man?

what i knew is every IC ended with odd number mean for male. else, female.

The IC is fake.
The seller talk to me is a GIRL.
The banking accounts is a GUY.
The IC No. is FAKE!

but my ic different a lil bit

normally smart well organized conman will use fake to confuse just incase u are about to refer back and get them, so its common they use fake.

Make a police report as soon as you can.
Give as much information as possible i.e. hp number, bank account transferred to, etc.

Most importantly...
Ignore statements like "Why you go believe?" or other similiar taunts.
You are not the problem... the CON is the problem.

Follow up with the police and make sure they work on it. It may take weeks... or months.
Do not give up and keep trying. You may not get your money back but this person will be caught eventually.

You still cannot go thru his number? i purposely sms him and he did reply. Very responsive. If happen that i didnt reply, i will received 4 smses in less then 3 minutes.

I said to her i want to buy her bag. Neverfull MM. she said yes, still available. When i ask to cod and asking where is her location. he reply by asking me where i am (as expected from a conman). I said i m in kl. she reply "you r too late.. if u contact me last week sure can cod in kl. now i m in JB n Sg to take stock"

I ask if i can ask my relative to cod with her at JB. she ask to cod at SG. then, she asking if my relative can come over meet her at SG, or else she will post. nicely offering me to pay half and later after receive the bag only pay the balance. Nice.

I said ok, ask her bank details, name and ic number. This is what she give me :

Full Name : Nichole Lim Chin Wei
Maybank Acc No : 158 314 045 709
IC : 830131-14-6170

Hope this will help.

wow
u seem like bukit aman
good job dude

I just check the ic no from the link a3solut3 provide above.. seems like its fake too.. but name she gave me is NICHOLE LIM CHIN WEI.

Definitely conman.

This morning, i start to argue with seller on her IC validation.. she keep telling me that the IC number is correct and belong to her. And she said she dont know how come the JPN link cannot identify her IC.

I said its ok la.. maybe some technical problem with it, ask her if she got other acc number and she give me the other account claimed to be his cousin maybank account.

Here it is :

Name : YIP CHIN MUN
IC NO : 850501-08-6190
ACC MBB : 158 32300 3920





Seems like NAME AND ACC NUMBER MATCH!!

good starrt.. probably TS should start investigating from this information.
apis.. YOURE THE MAN!

Many thanks

I will take this info to the police, not sure the police can help much or not but at least I do whatever I can do.

I contacted the bank and found out that another 2 victims after my case, they bank in 1k++ and money been taken out by the seller immediately.

I was surprised how come he still give u the mbb accounts she gave me earlier,according to the bank, this account been freezed.

Pls find this is her email to me 16hrs ago :

sorry on this, that day too rush for the singapore trip n forgot this all. can i send u the thing when i back? sorry


Her email again 15hrs ago :

hope u can let me explain it first...sorry sorry sorry really sorry about tis all...


Another email from her 6hrs ago :

Really sori about this all.. If u really wan a refund n don wan d bags, can u give me some time to refund to u, if can I will refund to u on Thursday sharp...coz got another buyer looking for the bag...then I can refund for u all..I can't refund to u on the spot because don't know y my account been blocked and can't take out money to refund to u..
Pls excuse for me, sure I will settled my things and refund to u on Thursday, really really really sorry for my faulty...

Make the police report first, don't wait, you can pull out the report later after that. It's just a pre-caution. Glad Apis helped here.

By the way, he/she really have intention to cheat here, Apis just proved it, which is why I asked you to make police report first, if you keep listen to him/her, then it will take you maybe a year or two to get refund.

Good luck to ts and that's some nice work done by apis.

I've already make police report on tuesday nite itself.

send him/her the police report thru email, it's ur time to threaten him!

No wonder she stop replying my sms.. she sudah notice.. hehe.. gudluck mate.

VERY GOOD JOB DONE BY APIS...
ME PERSONALLY BEING CONNED FROM MUDAH SELLER TOO....

Seems like TS never want to update the case..

She also stop sending me emails and check through with police, they said they need to seek bank negara this n that to get the info of the accounts. They mentioned this will take weeks and mostly this case very difficult to solve, most of the case they uses others ppl account and the bearer of the acccount did not know at all about the transaction. I also sien to hear that.

I lodged this report to mudah and seems they cant help much. What can I really can do ?
I suspect the seller got sell at LYN an i did PM the interested buyer to see the thread at dispute corner..

She gave me the above valid acc with name and ic number. use it to threatening her.. and dont forget to give the info to the IO. Good luck YannYann

d seller contacted me as well via email
gave me a RHB account number...
though my husband said to go ahead with d deal, i was too afraid to part with d $$...
so i google-d her email, facebook search d person... n i saw this @@

thanks guys for putting the post up =)

Mind to give that email address too?

may i have that RHB acc number.. seems like this scammer already using other acc instead of their mbb.

Just FYI, any I.C. ends with 0, 2, 4, 6, 8 are to indicate female.
0 is considered as even number.

Same email add:nichole_0131@yahoo.com

She even called and told me off for cancelling the order.
However, I won't release her personal details as she told me she will report me!@@

Lesson learnt: cheap stuff comes with a price!

We r here to solve things.. and to prevent someone being conned in future. It is because of we sharing each other that save u from being conned. U should do the same to save others. PM me if u insist.

she managed to search me out and know what is my occupation. Which is totally surprising. Taught her a lesson though. I told her to report me if she dares and I will do the same

She also know about this forum. So I doubt she will be so daring to con anyone for now.
And to add to this, she actually contacted me months after august 2010.

And btw, the beneficiary name for the account provided is still the same .

Beware ! This Yip Chin Mun has now changed her account no. She is in Facebook selling as Ashley Lim. Account with Alliance bank: Ashley Trademarked . After bank in, totally disappear and deleted fb account. Went to ssm checked owner of the company of Ashley trademarked appears to be Yip Chin Mun ic no 850501086190 address block c-3-7, persiaran lagun sunway, alpine village apartment, 31150 sunway city ipoh , perak.
