Hate to be the bearer of bad news especially for myself.
I was in discussions for a timepiece with Anton' at Gloria Fine Watches in Indonesia. I did all my reference checks and he was totally trustworthy etc
After the second email the genuine sellers email anton_gloria@yahoo.com was hacked and on the side of this email was a "tick" and a very similar email anton_glorie@yahoo.com that managed to divert all the email traffic to and from Anton and myself to the scammer. The scam email was hidden and if you have eye trouble like myself it is an easy trap to fall into.
All the important banking details and contact info from the genuine Anton were kept from me and replaced with the bogus accounts. The M£ucker kept me entertained with fake pictures and really impressive watch knowledge.
I sent funds $11550 to Bank of America in Phoenix to "James Williamson" account
Routing 122101706
Acct 457030805637
Swift BOFAUS3N
Address 4605 East Chandler Blvd
Phoenix AZ 85048
USA
I have reported this fraud to my bank but they have told me already that the funds have been cleaned out. Banks do not offer debit card customers any protection whatsoever even with the name of the scammer on the account. Everyone knows you need to declare social security card, passport, photo ID etc to open bank account!!! Does this apply in the US? Im sure? Where are our RIGHTS to prosecute these bas£ards????????? Do we have to rely on the authorities completely???
I have reported the scam to the FBI, Police over here in UK (actionfraud),Financial Ombudsman. Financial Commission and Yahoo moderator as well gmail. IP address in sunnyvale CA
I lost £9000 and im mad and i will make this my project in life to track the worthless piece of 'sh&t' down.
Just wanted to warn anyone out there to double check the emails and do not fall into the trap i fell into
Thanks for listening anyway and take care out there.

dumb seller.
know already the seller is in indonesia, why so stupid to go bank into US account.

I feel sorry for the buyer. I've bought online before, but always use Paypal only if dealing directly with owner. Of course, there are the few big name trusted dealers which I have not yet had experience dealing with, but would consider bank transfer.

Trying to understand this better; the buyer dealt with a guy from Indonesia, but did not feel suspicious when the fund transfer was to a bank in USA?

wah nice ride. if its yours haha

Wasn't it for your father

So. I choose this 1 lol

TGIF

Any sifu here know where can I get my GS serviced in Penang? or must send to KL / Japan?

Nice ride dude....A45 AMG  i believe

Went to Tudor at MBS.. Pelagos is clinical. Felt colder than in the pictures. Definitely a serious tool watch, not something I'd want.

Now comes the BB. Ho ho. It was not love at first sight, the charm I felt in pictures didn't carry over.

And on the unexpected front I went into Omega, and the PO, 45.5mm XL joke. Oh yeah, that looks more handsome than in the pictures. I liked it. But it was too thick, kinda floating on my wrist.

Orange is nice but I don't see it lasting the rest of time. Black, thinner case with the 2500. Maybe I should hunt for that.

ya PO 45.5mm is acquired taste... i had both 45 and 42...
bezel wise the 45.5mm measures 44mm...while the 42 is 40.5mm.
u didn't go check out the 43.5mm? or 'ladies' 39mm?

Didn't really want something normal. My DJ 36mm, Tag 41mm, I thought the orange PO XL would be a "different" piece. Alas, I can't see the orange working out anywhere except casual settings.

I did try the SMPc... looks yawn. Wavy dial is nicer.
