i encountered to this Michael Ng fella too about N95(dirt cheap RM700 or so), claiming he is from mobile88.com
ok, since he claimed he is from mobile88, i emailed mobile88 asking whether is there someone call Michael Ng.
then after 2 days, i received mobile88's reply, saying mobile88 dont hv this staff, and advice me not to deal with him if cant COD.

then...i just sleep over it...

i heard a friend of my friend(i dunno him) also got cheated by this *&^%$
i believe there are many out there who had been cheated by this fella

messy or not, they still strong....

clearly the invoice fake. You must use proper english in official document. and people don't put 100% risk free in their invoice. And the T&C look clearly fake. Why T&C about website? And not to mention bad spelling and other things. Clearly fake.

If its good to be true then its fake. U got PWNED. I don't know if police will help you since this is not a high profile case. So good luck.

if i report to the police,
will police freeze the bXstard account ??

Technically, i think this guy has left some important clues for the police to take action.

1) Bank Account - If this 'tai lok' name is what you see when you banked in, i think it wouldn't be long before the police get hold of him to investigate. This guy definitely knows the con-man or is the con-man himself.

2) Phone Number- Eventhough currently registration is required, he may have used some other people's IC for this purpose. But if he is not that smart, then easier la.

3) The lousy invoice- This practically proves that you banked in the money to 'tai lok' guy for this particular transaction. Not any other reason.

Therefore, if you can bring along your bank-in slip or receipt, maybe even better.



Another thing you want to consider is....if there has been consignment number given to you to track your parcel.

If yes, then good la...can check with the courier company the current status. and of course the recipient's address written there.

If not...then ok also. can just say you didn't get any number.



Pray hard...and hopefully the police will help crack and solve this case!



I think the voluntary feedback system works quite well in LYN to counter this problem. Those with good feedbacks want to keep their reputation.

And those without good feedbacks don't stay too long.


Anyway, good luck to you!!

Dear All,


Really sorry for peoples who were victimized by the conmans at mudah.com.my.

Below are some declaration:
1) Mobile88.com has never ask to transfer money into 3rd party account but only to Mobile88.com Sdn Bhd.
2) Mobile88.com is based in KL
3) Mobile88.com never sells any 2nd hand nokia phone

There are many conmans around in the cyberworld and members here have given lots of good suggestions/practice when purchase online.

We do receive calls quite often to report on such cases and most by the same person pretend to work with mobile88 and from JB.

This is how they operate, first post "phone for sales" in mudah.com.my and when customer contacted them, they will start to tell story and pursuade the customer to bank-in money in somebody's account (normally student who want to earn extra money by rent out their bank account, once the money transfer into this person account, he will get instruction to withdraw/transfer to somebody ... then they get paid.)

We always advise to deal with stranger in COD only.
We have advised anybody to report to police if they got cheated and we have reported this to police and also mudah.com.my. But seems that mudah.com.my couldn't do anything even police has visited their office.

Please do share this around to avoid more people fall-prey to that conman.

Mobile88 Admin.

Mobile88,

Even this is not my case, I really glad you come forward and speak-up. At least we all know you also taking some action.

wa ???
thx DUDE !
nice man !!!

they are strong because of the portal and their service, ipay88.

i dont think they are in business with mobile reload anymore.
most people prefer to use MAYBANK or CIMB to topup.

We always feel sorry when heard people got cheated, all are hard-earned money. Sometime, we cannot blame them cause lot of newbies are not aware on such scams.

Also we have to admit that mobile88.com is messy but we have engaged 3rd party to revamp and hope our new look in 2009 will be better. And we always welcome suggestions and comments from the surfers. Do feel free to drop us your valuable feedback at feedback@mobile88.com.


For reload, due to many reasons that its no longer a viable business online:
1) commission from Telcos has been reduced tremendously
2) subscriber can reload their prepaid almost everywhere and "convenient" factor no longer there.
but we definitely learn lot of lessons from that which result in setup of ipay88 payment gateway.

As mentioned, bad comments are always valuable and we really appreciate that. Lots of people may not tell you how bad you are but if they are really take their efford to tell then we will really take it seriously.

wa ??? GOOD man !!!

pity u!
go report to police!

YUP ~~~
sure i will !!!!

Useless, the police are damn useless... My friend was conned before... He is an avid online gamer, there was once a person trying to sell him mol point online and ask him to bank in RM400 into his account. After doing that, the loony refuse to answer his calls and made a lot of excuses. He did report that to the police. You know what?? The police in charged don't even know how to write a police report and do not know how to spell certain words.. So my friend help her to check. Then this woman put my friend on the phone to an inspector. This inspector encourage my friend not to find him as he will be having troubles like travelling from cyberjaya to the police station in shah alam frequently just to assist him in the investigation... Can you imagine this happened? How capable is our policeman??
