I've only bought something online once, and it was only a cheapo T-shirt so I banked in the full amount first before the seller posted the item.

So it seems that there is actually a practice of sending the item to the buyer before he/she banks in the amount?

Why not have the buyer send you details (with proof in black and white) such as home address, work address, work details, IC number etc, all of which must be counter-signed or at least approved by another party, preferably an employer or gov'n officer.

It should help a little to promote more trust btw ppl.

Hi, guys. Is there anythg polis could do if we'v got their maybank account number (and of cos, IC number too)....Cos I'v also met such ppl online....How come there r such uncivilised person in Malaysia. Thats why E commerce could not grow positively here.....
