Item being sold: iPhone 4 16GB for RM2400

Original thread link: WTS digi/maxis iphone 4

Date of transaction: 10 NOVEMBER 2010 (About 3-4PM, Maybank Karamunsing, Kota Kinabalu)

Details of the complaint : First and foremost I didn't think twice about being scammed by this individual. He's also a Sabahan, seems decent on the phone and even met him at my restaurant to show that he's sincere in dealing. Think I'll just do a schedule on what happened to me.

09/11/2010
- Posted a WTB thread to buy iPhone 4 (WTB iPhone 4 16GB)
- r3v3ng3 made first contact and offered to sell Digi iPhone 4 (COD in KK) Said that he didn't keep stock as only helping a friend and it'll only take three working days for the phone to arrive

10/11/2010
- Met him at my restaurant and didn't see anything amiss (looks like a decent guy). Ask me to call him KK.
- Went to Maybank Karamunsing Branch with him and deposited RM2400 in his account, WONG KEH KAE (Maybank- 114320053127)
- He assured me that his friend has ready stock and I'll get the phone on Friday (12/11/2010).

12/11/2010
- Went to Pos Laju with him to collect the parcel (according to him contains 3 iPhones and 1 iPad). Parcel is nowhere to be found and the tracking ID given by the friend came with an error (10 digits instead of 9)
- Asked him to tell his friend to scan and email the Pos Laju slip, didn't get any.
- Promised to meet the next day

13/11/2010
- Wasn't able to meet him in the morning as he mention he's meeting a client (he said that he works as an insurance agent and works at Menara MAA, Kota Kinabalu). I'm having a catering in the afternoon also so didn't really bother about it.
- Was supposed to meet him at Pos Laju about 4pm but he said that his brother is using the car so I went there myself to pickup the parcel. New ID was given but still can't locate the parcel. Asked my Pos Laju friend to look in the storeroom manually (WONG KAH KAE, PO BOX 14076, 88847 Kota Kinabalu)
- Still unable to find the parcel. Called him and requested the scanned Pos Laju slip. Told me he can't reach his friend. Said he'll settle everything on Monday (16/11/2010)

15/11/2010
- He contacted me and said that Pos Laju screwed up the delivery and he's changing to Citylink Courier straight to his office. His friend will ship the item Wednesday (17/11/2010) and it should arrived Thursday (18/11/2010) by 4pm. He also said that he'll be flying to KL that Thursday (18/11/2010) and asked if his friend, Roger (0128205071) can send the iPhone to me on his behalf. I said ok.

18/11/2010
- After 2pm I started contacting KK and he said the parcel already arrives in KK but Citylink haven't sent it to his office at Menara MAA. He said that Roger will pickup the parcel and sent it to me himself. I told KK that I'll wait at Tenom Cafe located in Menara MAA for Roger. Waited until 5pm but Roger didn't show but SMSed me saying that he's still in a meeting and will contact me that night for a meetup.
- Roger never showed up, picked up his phone or replied my SMS regarding his location
- I still communicated with KK through SMS from 7pm to almost midnight (KK said that he's in KL already at that time) Told me he couldn't communicate with Roger either.

19/11/2010
- I went to Miri in the morning and still couldn't contacted Roger. KK said that he'll figure out something. Also he mentioned that he'll be back to Kota Kinabalu on Saturday evening
- Got an SMS from Roger saying that he got a late night shift doing auditing and couldn't get away from work. Ask me if I'm available to meet for him to give the iPhone.
- Told him I'm in Miri and ask him to just give KK the iPhone when he arrives from KL Saturday (20/11/2010).
- Also, I SMSed KK and told him to hold the iPhone so I can pickup it from him Monday afternoon when I'm back from Miri.

22/11/2010
- About 8.30am, KK SMSed me saying that he's in Sandakan because his grandfather suffered a stroke. Won't be able to pass me the iPhone. He offered a full refund as so many trouble came up along the way. I accepted the refund suggestion and gave him my Maybank account.
- He said it'll take some time to refund the my money as he needs to care for the grandfather at the hospital and he didn't bring his computer.

23/11/2010
- Said no Maybank nearby the hospital so ask for my RHB account, so I gave it to him
- That night KK contacted me saying that the RHB branch he went don't have cash deposit machine so will return the next day

24/11/2010
- Around 2.40pm KK contacted me saying that cash has already been transferred via his uncle CIMB Clicks to my RHB account, should take two working days to clear
- Called my bank to confirm this and they concur
- I ask for the electronic transcript of the transaction from KK and he promised to email me, never emailed me

25/11/2010
- Still haven't emailed me the transaction proof and kept stalling

26/11/2010
- Cash still not in
- Unable to reach him until today
- No more calls or SMSes from him also

29/11/2010
- Cash still not in and decided to make a formal police report and also find out his details from Maybank
- Hope I get this guy for scamming me

Sorry for the long rant everyone...
It's really frustrating when this happen as the iPhone 4 is meant to be a gift for my Wife. I really hope any LYN members here can help me track down this guy and any help will be greatly appreciated...
After I get his details from Maybank, the Police or my media friends (Mykad, full address, Picture) I'll publish it here also.

Just in case you're reading this Wong Keh Kae, hope you do the right thing and surrender yourself. This thread will be up until you're CAUGHT by the Police...

Thanks everyone for your support. Already made official police report today and we're looking positive in nabbing this scum WONG KEH KAE.
Here's the copy of my LYN PM conversation with him after I posted my WTB iPhone 4 thread:

r3v3ng3: ok. how n where do u wan to deal 2nite? Nov 9 2010, 09:02 AM

Then, I met him the next day at my restaurant and we contacted through SMSes and calls from his multiple numbers (0109489945/ 0109518765/ 0128205071/ 0109319945). After he no longer pickup my calls or reply my SMSes, I realized that it is indeed a scam. I PMed him again yesterday (28/11/2010) before proceeding with this thread.

ae8za: WONG KEH KAE,
MY RM2400 IS NOT IN MY ACCOUNT YET AND I CAN'T CONTACT ALL YOUR NUMBER. I HAVE NO CHOICE BUT TO ASSUME THAT YOU ARE SCAMMING ME.
IF I DON'T GET ANY REPLY FROM YOU TONIGHT, OFFICIAL POLICE REPORT WILL BE MADE AGAINST YOU TOMORROW MORNING. I'LL ALSO FIND YOUR ADDRESS FROM MAYBANK AND WILL ASK THEM TO FREEZE YOUR ACCOUNT. DON'T THINK I CAN'T FIND YOUR HOUSE AS WELL.
THIS IS YOUR LAST CHANCE TO SETTLE THIS BEFORE I ANNOUNCE IN THIS FORUM THAT YOU'RE A CON MAN.
BE A GENTLEMAN AND OWN YOUR ACTION... Yesterday, 07:05 PM

No response from this warning, so I proceeded with this thread. And magically after I posted the thread,

r3v3ng3: I'm not in malaysia now. will return you when i get back this week Today, 06:36 AM

r3v3ng3: plz la. if i wan scam u will i keep insist tat u bank the money into my acc n keep d slip? y not juz agree to take the cash frm u when u say u giv me cash? i wont be so stupid lo Today, 09:35 AM

ae8za: Don't bother explaining. You said money already in by your uncle and then suddenly money not in? Yes you're stupid for thinking I'm going to fall for that.
Even a simple online transaction proof you can't provide, you think I'll trust you refunding my money?
I'll proceed with the police report to protect myself. I'll retract it and the LYN statement after you refunded my RM2400. Today, 10:00 AM

r3v3ng3: then u shd also need show me a statement that u havent recieve the money. if nt how i know if u r lying or nt? Today, 10:06 AM

ae8za: Don't bother explaining.
Since you're still denying and don't want to settle this in good terms, I'll make sure that I get your IC and house address from the bank and provide it to the police.
You can explain it to them then... Today, 10:12 AM

r3v3ng3: then i also better make a report that u trying to scam me 2400 Today, 10:16 AM

r3v3ng3: if u also dun bother showing me the proof also how in the world i know u r nt trying to scam me? Today, 10:18 AM

ae8za: Do the report, I dare you. Or better, we go together to Karamunsing station and lay the case. Then we can see whose lying. As long as you don't provide me proof of your so called uncle depositing the CIMB clicks money to my RHB account, I know you're the scammer because until today no fund is inside my RHB account.
You're really pathetic... I'll make sure your family members know what you did to me. I'm going straight there during lunch time to make report, join me if you dare and you want to proof your innocence... Today, 10:26 AM

r3v3ng3: i will surely make d report when im back Today, 10:35 AM

ae8za: LOL!
Don't lie because that's what you are. See if you have the balls to confront me at the Dispute Corner first. I'll publish our chat from here and see how you response. Then see if you still dare to challenge me with the authorities or not? Today, 11:57 AM

r3v3ng3: sure. Today, 12:03 PM

r3v3ng3: just for ur info, the addrss on my ic is old addrss... im staying in inanam area now. Today, 12:57 PM

r3v3ng3: What for you tell me that? Refund my money and I retract my police report and LYN statement. Today, 12:58 PM

r3v3ng3: told u im not in sabah u dunwan belive wat can i do. Today, 12:59 PM

ae8za: Not my problem. All I know that as long as you hold my money I will keep making noise about you here in LYN.
You give back full refund and then I settle down... Today, 01:04 PM

r3v3ng3: then u juz cont bising while wait me come back lo Today, 01:12 PM

So, good and honest people of LYN, what do you think of this person?

Update:

Manage to get his MyKad number today from Maybank, will try to get his address and also his MyKad copy or picture from my friend working with JPN.

WONG KEH KAE: 840403-12-5089

So sorry everyone for late reply. Been busy with my restaurant and been outstation...
Also, the authority ask me to keep things quiet on their investigation, the sergeant updates me every day. About the photo and MyKad copy, will post it on Monday or Tuesday once I get my hands on it...
No worries, I shall not lose hope on this case until this scammer WONG KEH KAE is caught by the police, which should be soon...
Those with useful information may chip in anytime in this thread. Cheers everyone...

Thanks for the gesture Bro, really appreciate it.
If you have any recent pics of him or during school/ college/ uni days will also help. Which school you went Bro, maybe I can go there and check admin record?
So far, the info that I have are asked to be kept private for the time being by the police. Will release on Wednesday after the Sergeant give me a green light.

I've dealed with others this way for up to RM50K before, never had any problems. Just that this time I dealed with a conman without realizing it.
Just want others to know and take precautionary methods before dealing with another individual. No worries to all, this lowlife will be hunted until he's captured, I have time to spare and not in a rush or hurry anyways...

This post has been edited by ae8za: Dec 11 2010, 02:06 PM

Still in the hands of the Sergeant and his Detectives... Not in a hurry so I'll let them do their jobs.
Will update here for anything...
P.s- Would be great if anybody can help me get this scumbag's IP address so I can track down him through Streamyx or brooadband account...

Thanks for the concern Chris.
What to do not my luck dealing with you again... Appreciate the help also...

Thanks for the info Bro.
Already updated with the Sergeant. He'll contact Bukit Aman to checkout the address...
Cheers.

Appreciate that Bro. My Sergeant here in KK stil waiting for Bukit Aman to call back. If you see him do let me know here or PM me so the Police will work faster...
Hope can find him so that he'll enjoy his New Year in lockup...

Thanks Bro! But the Sergeant here in KK updates me every 2 weeks. Cheers...
P.s: Should there be any enquiries, I'll PM you...

I did with a few insurance agent friends. So far no luck and the building is quite huge with many small partitions...

Yup! that's the guy. To bad he doesn't live at the address anymore...

It's not about the money but making sure that no one else will get conned by this monkey. After this happened I got my Wife another iPhone 4 and a 4S for me too.
Now, my Wife's and my iPhone 5 are on the way too...

The case is still open. If the police can find him, why not? Let this a$$hole feel how it is living in a jail cell...

Sometimes I also wonder where all the income tax I paid to pay the police salary goes. At least the case is still open...

I kept this thread open so that others will know this person. Try Google his name and this thread will pop up. His name, face and crime will be known in the internet for as long as this thread exist. Satisfying enough for me...
