Hey guys, well I just would like to post a highlight here regarding on my deal with the above seller with the nick, KY_Lee who's name supposed to be Judith / Amanda Lee Kar Yan (17 yrs old girl) from KL but moved to KK, Sabah. She posted 2 sales topic here in LYN forum, one if for her Nokia N70 & another imobile 520 & here are the links to the topics: (Nokia N70) http://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?showtopic=821268&hl= & (imobile 520) http://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?showtopic=821273&hl=

The issue now that I've currently facing is she was FFK-ed by a buyer for her imobile 520 phone that I'm interested with. I asked her whether can close deal with me & she said it's been reserved for the previous buyer so I dropped the deal. After 2 days she SMS me saying that the buyer FFK her for the deal & asked me whether I'm still interested with it or not for the same price of RM200 including postage with Poslaju. I thought for a while & I was desperate looking for a temporary phone as got my 2nd phone stolen when I went for a meeting in downtown KL 2 weeks ago.

So initially I've confirmed the purchase with KY_Lee & she said that I should bank in 50% of the selling price (RM100) from the RM200 selling price into her account before she could proceed with the deal. Well, I promised that I'll bank in to her account & she provided me with her brother's Maybank account no. under the name of Lee Kok Yew (1012 0819 3308) which I eventually banked in RM100 into it on 30th Oct 2008. Her contact number is 017-6200 114

I provided her with my name as well as mailing address in order for her to send the phone parcel using Poslaju. She promised & even confirmed that she'll be posting the parcel on Friday (31st Oct) afternoon around 3pm but failed to do so due to her brother's schedule & confirmed again to send on Sat (1st Nov) morning that shall be arriving at my place on Mon (3rd Nov). I've a feeling that she'll be delaying the postage this time & bingo, she asked her friend by name of Ell (who's also a member here in LYN by the nick - eLL_lAzyPiG) by sms me using the number, 016-971 8991 saying that she involved in a car crash & this Judith / Amanda will refund me on Monday morning provided that I sms her my bank acc no.

Sigh..... frankly, it's such a hassle & this little girl wasted my time just to wait for her updates on the status. She doesn't bother to sms me even a single word to update me & I've called her number twice but no answer. I understand maybe she's away in school or what-so-ever reasons but this is not the way it should be. FYI, I've chat with her thru phone conversation before banking in to her & definitely, she's a young girl voice. She's a nice to chat with person but business deal is deal...... deliver what u promised at the 1st place & if can't the refund buyer. Simple deal right?

Last nite (4th Nov) this KY_Lee (Judith/Amanda) sms me that her brother finally sent the phone using Poslaju & tracking number provided as well. I was busy the whole day yesterday due to meetings so didn't have the time to check the status. I checked the tracking number this morning & there's nothing at all. I hope that she's not another con artist & the reason I posted this is to highlight as well as serve as information to other potential buyers for the items she posted in the future. I'm still awaiting her update & reply later in the afternoon after she's off from school. She's currently sitting for her SPM as she told me thru her sms messages. I kept & stored all her SMS in my phone as well as those that I've replied her. I'll take some snapshots on the SMS later if she doesn't get back to me on the status by today.

P/S: I'm not worried bout the RM100 that I banked into her brother's Maybank acc, I just dislike seeing these con artists lurking here in LYN forums conning hard earned $$$ from other members. AFAIK, she gave another tracking no. to her N70 buyer & he/she unable to track the status.

** Judith / Amanda (KY_Lee) if you are reading this, please get back to me on the status by today midnite on the phone or refund status. I've told u thru our SMS as well as phone conversations that I wouldn't be happy if u pulled tricks on our deal ok. **

I'll close this topic once I've either received the imobile 520 phone set parcel from u in working order OR u refunded me RM100 into my Maybank account.

Are you sure he/she/it is a gurl?

we never know it could even be who u assume is a girl but asking u to bank into her brother acc but actually the brother is the conman himself?

Members are reminded that the banking in of money to the account of somebody you do not know in the expectation of shipment is extremely risky and should not be practiced.

Well, I've personally chat with her thru phone calls & indeed she's a girl. I'm also suspecting that either she or her brother is the con artist or both in the same boat. I'm not too concern bout the RM100 that I banked in as it's not a big amount just that I'm desperate for a phone before I go outstation for my business trip. Besides, I often flies over KK, Sabah..... since she said she's there, why not I pay her a visit? Checking & getting her details is easy but I don't think that I'll do it for a mere RM100.

Just what I've said, I posted up this topic to alert other buyers when it comes to her sale topic.

If doing bank transfer, it's much better to bank in the money into the person's account you are dealing with. This will avoid third party con cases and also making sure this person is real.

Hmm...that Lee Kok Yew is probably her brother. Call her again and inform her about this thread. Or else post up all her details....

Goodluck.

It's a coincidence where her bro's name as well as her name have the same initials like KY_Lee as her nick here in LYN. Anyway, I'll wait for her update till tonite & if she failed to do so then I'll deal with her in another way.

Added on November 6, 2008, 10:43 amWell, as expected by me.... NO updates by SMS or calls from her for the whole day. I guess I'll wait for another day as I understand that it'll take Poslaju 2 days for parcel to be delivered from East M'sia to West M'sia.

Added on November 6, 2008, 2:53 pmLatest Update, my mom at home called to informed me that that's a parcel arrived with the surname "Lee" along with an English name as well. I'll check it out once I'm home later tonite & then update here if she/he sent the parcel with phone inside or not.

for name initials-- why not? me and my sib has same initials too

hope u get ur stuff. or maybe just some delay..

Well guys, my latest update!!! Confirmed that KY_Lee is a con artist & I'm one of his/her victim.

Yesterday, I received the parcel that she sent to my mailing address & it's only a imobile 520 phone box with old newspaper & dunno what kind of charger in it. No phone, battery or warranty card. I've snapped the photos of the parcel & I'l upload it here!

I'll also upload the SMS messages that she sent as well as my replies here as well.

Hmmm...she sent the box to you without the HP? My instint says that she will blame the poslaju for stealing the HP later.

I've the same feeling like what u said buddy. I'm sure that she'll blamed it on Poslaju for the lost of phone during delivery process. She off her phone since yesterday when I tried to SMS & call her. It's a dirt cheap price that I paid to know that she's a con artist.

Well, I'm pretty sure that she wont refund the RM100 to me. Sigh..... 17 yrs old girl who's sitting for SPM edi a con artist here in public online forums. Good for her & dammit, her price is even cheaper than those PRC girls. Hahahaha.....

I know her.
Another buyer by the name of shukri also sms-ed me for her brother hp number and i gave him.
He also experience the same thing.
The box he receive is SE box with only a charger in it.
I already called up her brother yesterday and he say he knows nothing because Judith is in her hostel.
Shukri will lodge a police report (as what he told me) and I support him to do that.
Just wait and see what will happen.

Yep that's me. I also got the same thing like you nd_4ever. I paid full sum of RM400 for teh N70 and what I got is only a SonyEricsson W550i box with a SonyEricsson phone charger in it with pieces of newspapers. I was quite surprised too because she seems genuine. I just got his brother's phone number (thanks eLL_lAzyPiG) and will try to negotiate things properly. If still can't, I will lodge police report in the nearest time. And oh, yes, she turned off her phone for few days already, last sms went through is at Tuesday, but she never replied.

btw, nd_4ever, if you did have a trip to KK, let me know, that RM400 is not mine, it's my friends money... I wish I have money to go there...

Ell, could u PM me Judith's brother's phone number to me as well? Thanks! I think it's u who SMS me using the 016 number last week right?

Added on November 7, 2008, 2:57 pmEven I'm flying over to KK..... I don't think I'll spend effort look for her for a mere RM100. I rather spend my time & money for leisure over there. I've lost hope with these con artist.

I already tried to contact her brother but seems the phone is off too...

damn, no one want to help!

Frankly speaking buddy, no one will help as it doesn't involve their money ma. Worst still they'll say why we (victims) so naive & stupid to bank in money into a stranger's account after numerous cases like this.

OMG, she is conwoman???? i've closely to conclude the deal with her to buy her imobile buy i am not proceed since she has some difficulty to send the phone (only available to post on 31th Oct). she is 17 years old. she used her brother account to deal. i closely banked in to the account but i refused to proceed since both of us have some problem. she said at that time (29 Oct) to me that i'm the only person wants to buy her imobile phone. how come other person deal with her (regarding imobile)?

At 1st I didn't jump into straight conclusion that she's a con-woman but when I received the so called imobile 520 phone set parcel from Poslaju, it was just a freaking empty box with loads of newspapers cutting slips with a charger. Dunno what type of charger also. I'm uploading the photos in a short while.

This is my last time to deal with postage deals here in LYN. That's why all my topic are COD only!
