hmm.. im a 17 year old without a bank account.. other than COD or borrowing other people's account, is there a way to transfer the money to the seller?? cos i dun reli understand all the terms u guys r saying here

use cash deposit from bank

thank you.. but how does cash deposit work?

i think that for some bank the minimum deposit is rm5, some are rm10. you just need to slot the money into the machine with the seller accounts number.
you can also take it to the counter of the bank is the amount like have cents or whatever.
the banker will assist you if you dunno how to do it.

oh.. so means i still have to find the bank.. =( oh well.. thx anyway ^^

I'm feeling anxious and stupid on my latest transaction. I'm selling PayPal fund and a guy contacted me to buy USD240. He transferred money to my Maybank account from CIMB at 1AM 3/7/08. I sent the fund to him once he showed me the screenshot of payment. My question: How long does it usually takes for the money to reach my account? Thank you.


P.S. I should have insisted on waiting for the money to get into my account first.

it should be under GIRO, right? yeah, its actually risky when you do that cos the screenshot could have been photoshop-ed

Any1 noes what's the minimum amount for Public Bank cash deposit machine?

Sorry being a noob.......how do seller detect it is you who bank it in the money??? Bank in method......tq!!

there is a buyer told me that he has transferred money from his Cimb bank to my Maybank account,
the receipt that he sent me was with the wrong beneficial name,
but he say its ok, as long as the account number is correct.
Is that true???
however, i still not received the amount of money. he said was sent on saturday night.

Most probably I've been scammed because I've yet to receive my money till now.


I think you've been scammed too...

my place cdm accepts rm5 notes.

hmm.... should have seen the money in your bank account 1st before transfering your paypal accounts.

From my experience, CIMB to any other bank is around 1 day plus, less than 48 hours. It's usually around 25-28 hours (during weekdays)

As I said, I gave in to his pleadings. In fact, during the entire transaction, he was very convincing. So, from now on for me: It's money first, talk later.

When doing online transaction, it is better to state that deal proceed only when payment CLEARED in your account. Do you know that the buyer can anytime just call the bank to hold back the transfer?

There are a lot of scammers for this Paypal selling deals...

cimb to other bank, took me less 3 working days, i think other bank same too

Does this mean i can just put any Beneficiary Name in it as long as the account number is correct, the money would go thru?

what are the ways to verify a transaction? wanna know if a buyer has paid me, the time and other details to verify

atm?
online?
update bank book?

i use internet banking to check balance

for maybank2u, internet banking you can only know the amount, & type of transaction . you wont know who paid you so it is save to inform the buyer to inform you once paid with exact amount.
if you want to know the time, call up to your bank and ask them the transaction, if not mistaken, pnly the main branch of your account open can check..
