yeaP..do beWare of this situation...the is sum FreaK used my thRead to CON ppl's money as weLL... LAME!!

your title is misleading
> BeWare of 'Renee' the fake..XD, wna curi ppl's business

it's as if you're saying Renee : The Fake, wanna curi people business, meaning you're accusing Renee of being a fake and attempting to steal business.

i mean really, that what the messages says before reading the detail. in order to avoid misunderstanding, i'll try to give it a better title.

I think the best way is to keep yr phone number private

Yes, Please beware out there,

i'll using my 019-9065814 and 014-6669442 to contact my buyers only.

others than this 2 numbers, please ignore it.

if not mistaken, renee still studying, and she never stated got a parner,
is it true???
to those who want to cheat/ curi sales, pls leave lyn!!!!!

does it even matter? we don't even have to put our nose into her business setup - just follow what she stated in the above.

i got con by him today rm450,just like mention above the tactics is the same,already lodge in a police report with the phone no and maybank account no,will use my friend connection in the police force to find his address and hunt him like a dog.this low life human must be teach a lesson in humanity.

then how u can recover back your money?

you people are making some huge mistakes.

first thing
1. don't post your number or anything online, if seller was to contact you - make sure you PM seller the number or you call seller instead.
2. never bank in $$$ unless you KNOW it's a trusted seller
3. if seller was a girl, don't 'layan' caller that is a guy. don't even bother any explanation, if seller was sick he /she can still call you. it's not a matter of life and death.

just a few pointers on safe-guarding yourself.

I think the con case is getting bad to worst in LYN, another forumer have just got con RM200...

any chance to pinned the topic at handphone garage sales ?
or maybe create a new topic regarding this matter and pinned on garage sales.

i also got con by a number 016-5762106. just banked in RM200 to his bank account 162106376758(Adif Bin Ismail) to buy a Nokia 6110 with RM1365. but He also called himself as Renee. said that 'she' is not in Kl so cannot COD for me so 'she' do GDEX to deliver to me. 'she' also provide 'her' ic number to make me more confident 851207-14-5182.

should i hand this to a police report?

Yes, you should notice the conmen is Malay guy and his name got a "bin" there. so must be a guy and not a girl....

Anyway, the chances the account u bank-in to is not a conmen also, he might a victim also, the real conmen is asking u to bank-in to this account number and after that he will call the bank account holder and said that he have banked-in and can proceed with the COD.

Like what goldfries mentioned on the above post, there a few points which need to take care...

I have few customer face the same problem also. From that number self claim that they are me. Today a few customers called me to ask me about appointments arranged and why i did not turn up. However they told me that they bank in to the same Khairul and the same 014 number. This few days i am having finals so i din really reply pm's in my thread. However just to warn others that all the numbers he got are from my thread. It seems he always use the technique with 128mb. Please beware and reconfirm with either me when dealing.

if he were to con you, you actually believe he'll give you his real IC? I highly doubt that.

Evading Imposters. I'm leading the thread open for contributions of various possible con-methods.

Yeah, despite all the warning, people still want to bank in money blindly. Haih...so pathetic sad.
