Anyone can register with SSM. I can register with SSM using ABC Company, saying I'm a eRetailer, but infact I could be doing Sundry kedai runcit. SSM don't investigate. I can register ABC and open a bank account, and later after the SSM registration has expired, I can still continue to use the bank account. SSM is just a place to register "stuff".

I once won a case when the seller's ad was misleading, etc. Misleading can be in many forms, such as pictures does not match the description or item, small fonts, certain clauses not visible, or those description that are visible but then they are not related to the ad, etc... many ways to mislead a person. Be careful.

lexus150, i saw your PM first before I read this post, so I didn't know what was it about.
OK, I'm sure some of you heard of small claims court. I believe someone's parents are lawyers so please advice if my sharing is not entirely right. Go to small claims court, take a form, pay RM10, fill in and submit. Prepare all your details and claims. Highlight those that matters, in your case go according to time sequence. This is why school presentation is important, because you really need to organize everything according to your benefit and present to the court. With small claims court, you would have to do everything yourself, unless you want to engage a lawyer. Prepare your case, present the subpoena yourself, even prepare the subpoena yourself, and all other documents all by yourself. But it is a great learning experience. I am just sadden by the fact that many lawyers have eyes only for money. No money means no talk. Not even a bit of advice. They feel so strong about these things, even very rich ones with high status. When they need IT advice, they come and hope to get things for free!! (Just my rumbling about lawyers) Anyway, back to topic. Even if you win at small claims court, there is still enforcement part. If you can find the person, then he has to pay or otherwise you can get the law to go after him. If he is not to be found, then the situation becomes difficult. Usually, conman would have prepared the "back down" or "escape" route. So you need to understand their entire plan, then only take your move and have all of them captured. I had a malay who is a pro con artist. Everything he and his wife does are truly like Gloden Globe award winners. Now, they are not to be found, and I have no choice of doing anything. So don't "hit grass scare snake". |

Actually, in my understanding of law, if anyone of you write things here without the intention to bad mouth any company, then it is difficult to sue you in court, especially if the company is a seller. As a seller, these are opportunities to arise as a responsible company, and to make clear of what is not. If the seller wish to sue the writer as of what is written so far, from what I see, then by all means go ahead. I have 100% confident that the court will find the company who is the one having ill intention.

Did they ever call you? What's the number that appear on your mobile phone?
Else, what's the number(s) that you can reach them? This post has been edited by n8210: Jun 30 2011, 07:14 PM |

QUOTE(nasrulbond @ Jun 16 2011, 09:32 AM) i buy it from the local website (apparently they closed the website already), claiming they're legit Apple seller, can only do payment via bank in transfer, and yeap the price is just too good to be true! and when i already do the payment, which is rm1300 at that time, they said i have to pay for another rm700 because of the custom and international shipping ( they claimed that they got their iphones from US and got so many trouble when trying to bring back to malaysia.) then i start to feel something going wrong here, and when i ask them for a full refund, they dont want to pay and instead, i'm the one who have to pay cause my order is the one who caused the trouble with the customs. after that, the same story goes like you guys, wanna report police then they want to file lawsuit for me la, and so on. a friendly reminder, NEVER TRUST THEM when they said they need your IC Number, address like that. they just want to use all the information against you back. and hell yeah, i EVEN GOT THEIR PASSPORT, PICTURES as a proofs, but in the end, i can't do anything because the police said it was too late and it's hard to find them anyways. so i just let it slip away like that and learned my 'harsh' lessons about buying online. Mind sharing the police report reference number so that the victims can refer your case to this case and perhaps they are the same guys!! Whether there is a refund coming on 8 Aug or not, I think it is already beyond just the refund.after reading the whole post just now, i think you guys punya situation with mine is just the same, and waddafak, the seller also provide me the wrong address you know! and i'm getting pissed because you guys seems kena juga, seriously it's bullsh*t ! for those who got chances to meet up with them or know their places, better go and ask. don't just keep waiting, and probably it's the best if you let the police know about this too. the only advantage you guys got over me is you're still keep in touch with them, they still layan2 you guys, but mine just disappear like that. act fast guys! and yeah, geopchai, i think you make a right decision to open this thread, dont worry lah about the lawsuit, they just play games on you. but surely if i was cheated by this company, surely i'll make them eat my knuckle fist when i meet them. lol  |

There are so many of you guys, and the delays are incredible!! I wonder if any newspaper would like to report this since cyber scam is among the top stories these days.
