Please people, just go make police report. No sense of giving him a chance. Even if he refund some victims, its probably for show to make you think twice about taking action.

If he did get 20k, maybe still got time to stop him from deposit all the money by having his account frozen? Don't know if he dare to show up at bank counter to withdraw that amount.
Per day you can only withdraw certain amount, no? |

QUOTE(cracksys @ Sep 24 2012, 08:05 PM) do you think maybank will take a word from nobody like us to freeze someone account? I expect them to make police report and give it a try with the bank, if possible with a group of victims.even with police report, they won't simply freeze an account. unless there is a court order Better than sitting doing nothing while whining all day. |

QUOTE(Hunakadoo @ Sep 24 2012, 08:26 PM) Bank won't simply frozen user account . Of course la that's why try to push victim to file police report. AFAIK, when it comes to withdraw for banks, there is a limit to how much you can withdraw a day, so while still got money left, might as well victims make the effort to go file police report in the hopes of bank to help them out in freezing the account of the conman.He no need to withraw that amount at his bank . every ATM will do . properly now the account is insufficient funds already . Surely he took all the money on hand now . |

QUOTE(debbierowe @ Sep 24 2012, 11:53 PM) i somehow felt... some forumers already knew it but kept quiet to c if really got ppl got scammed at last ... Some forumer knew something was not right but what to do? I even commented that people should be very careful about pre-ordering iPhone 5 before this but if no one bother to take precaution and go ahead throw their money away to some unknown seller that barely sells anything. Can't suspect every seller later get warned by mods for accusing genuine seller as conman. At the very least seller should avoid paying deposit, ALWAYS COD (yet foolish buyers still bank in first). |

QUOTE(firslash88 @ Sep 25 2012, 10:53 AM) this is because the seller gives a chance for buyer to make a full payment once they receive their goods.  QUOTE Deposit of RM200 is required per order details. NO DEPOSIT IS REQUIRED FOR REPUTED MEMBERS AS THERE MIGHT NOT BE CHANCES OF FFK It makes victims feel confidence to trust conman so much that they neglect to think the possibility of getting scammed. But last minute conman will make 101 excuse on why seller should make deposit (or full payment). They should have just stick to not giving deposit. Even if they did, losing RM200 is better than RM10k. |

QUOTE(netken @ Sep 25 2012, 11:32 AM) plenty to go around bros - another one : https://forum.lowyat.net/topic/2521552 You trust the 2 referrals ? Look at the referrals' history, one of them barely had any sales or posting.let's do this case study guys .... He has some good reference at signature? Possible Giveaway : 1. iPhone5 16GB at RM2,500.00 firm. 2. Want Deposit first as reservation. 3. Item coming on 7th Oct - COD 8th onwards. 4. Balance can pay when collect. So is this genuine or not ? can anyone tell or can someone take the risk ? Like previous poster said - we cant go on blackmarking every single sale but we can practise safe procedures. its up to the buyer to be smart - once burn twice shy - thrice then can go die.  After this fiasco, you might as well don't do it. |

Watch out for new potential con case for iPad Mini.
I think high profile like this should be spammed with warnings especially unknown seller. |
