I never buy any thing from internet before but i get 2 calls a day from the same person claiming she's from a certain credit company giving out 'back up cards' go card my credit card no more balance. She seem to have all my credit card details but not the 3 no. At the back of my card. After 2 calls i got suspicious and call my local bank to verify if there is such promotion going on. Bank said takda. So the next time she call harassing me for the no. I recorded the conversation and go report police.

I receive few emails before. All from ebay. They claim to be interested with your product and ask to post to Nigeria and said will pay using Western union. but I never reply their mail as I heard some senior seller in ebay said that those are con email. Seems like they have make the whole ecommerce thing became insecure. Really bad ppl.

wah... online shopping should be hassle free, relax ur day by buying ur goods peacefully in ur home...end up bluffing ppl...
i prefer dealing with the shop directly and get my products directly..no waiting waitng unless we are close...

just trying to avoid being conned huhu...
internet purchasing really needs a lot of researches, from the products to the sellers. otherwise, hard-earned money will evaporize just like that!

Yeah that's y internet business is very difficult to do now. But I do believe there has been many internet transaction which has completed smoothly.

internet are the easiest way to get con.

agreed..

hi there, want to sell ur N82?

I see lots of scamming online..sad case on people that get scammed. Those who scam,

I nearly got scammed thru the internet online, it is always better to meet up and do the trade face to face, thats what i have learned.

sell?..no dude..i love my n82 so much.. ....aint gona sell...mayb u can try find at garage sales...as i can recall there is 1 fella selling n82 black edition...

ha, can give me the link direct?

prefer cod bro. make sure the seller frm near ur area. easy to test the item kaw kaw. if not satisfy, u can reject. sending the item by post/Currier is dangerous.. the item might be lost/broken.. n even faulty..

I oso believe cod to be a good method especially if the item is expensive.

couldnt agree more.. cod is the best method.

COD is the best method !!!

But there is oso some buyer who ffk during cod.

yea...when they know the price of the item is cheaper, they go find another seller and get it from them..stress to the seller

If they really dowan liao should at least tell the seller. So that the seller no need go to the promised place and wait ma.

internet is good to promote your stuff. but all transaction should be deal through COD. and den no harm lor. the most oso petrol for seller go there, and buyer ffk din turn up.
