tkwfriend is a paypal seller. Most paypal sellers are prone to 3rd party scam tactics. That's why everyone must practise a double checking and confirmation b4 proceeding to bank in money to sellers.

In this case, the scammer is trying to make buyer bank in to tkwfriend's account. The scammer will then contact tkwfriend and claimed he banked in so and so amount for his paypal. We have tonnes of such case in lowyat.net.

If possible just COD or deal with trusted sellers. Be safe than sorry.

Besides instinct this is what everyone should do before they proceed to bank in. Always double check. I dont think you have a case here as anyone could simply create another email account and claim himself to be who and who. I could even register tkwfriend@gmail.com and claim myself to be him.


If you go thru tkwfriend user page, he only puts tkwfriend@hotmail.com as his msn contact and no other email so how could you assume tkwfriends@yahoo.com belongs to him?

No, i'm not defending him but if you go thru the dispute center you will find alot of similar case.
