My name: Joshua Chang
Party in dispute : limjack
Item being sold : Intel Processors
Original thread link: limjack's Intel Sale
Date of transaction : 13/02/09
Amount of money involved : RM400
Details of the complaint :
Friday/Saturday/Sunday : This person led us to believe that he would sell us Intel processors at a very low price. He made a thread listing down all the prices of OEM procs and how he was a serious seller despite the fact that he had just joined in February. Initially, I was quite suspicious (RM400 for a brand-new OEM E8400? WOW!) but after a few phone calls back and forth, I was convinced. He emailed screenshots of the product and even told me he just CODed with a fellow trusted LYN forumer. I was convinced and I banked in the money into his account. I called him to confirm and he said that he would go to the post office in the morning to mail the product to me along with the tracking code. Around 11am Saturday morning, I tried to contact him through the phone but all calls went straight to voicemail. Initially I was worried, but I figured it was Valentine's day and people needed their privacy, so I SMSed him just to leave a note reminding him about the tracking number. Sunday is normally a rest day for most people, so again, I decided not to try to contact him then as well.
Monday/Tuesday/Wednesday : Now, Monday came along and I decided to try again. Voicemail. So I figured that it probably was some sort of misunderstanding and that the package would arrive with/without tracking number eventually. I decided to give 3 working days for the package to arrive. I contacted a fellow forumer on the same day itself who apparently ordered from thread as well. He also said he was unable to contact limjack but I convinced him to give at least 3 working days. I called the trusted LYN forumer and he said that he received the processors that he had ordered. I felt safe again. I sent him another mail just to ask for the tracking number. Again, no reply. After repeated calls, it soon became clear that this guy had run away with our cash so we have decided to make this dispute thread. If he ever comes online again, I hope I have given him enough chance to clear his name before the police report.

Further Details : I have SMSes and Bank-in confirmation slip screenshots to be posted up later. The trusted LYN forumer has chosen to be anonymous to avoid association with the conman. I'll watch the progression of the thread to see if I need to relate his story as well.
Other Known Victims : Kilowatt (RM400) and Raptor22 (RM350)
Note : I'm sure there are a few more other people out there who have gotten played by this con artist, so if you are, please PM me with screenshots for confirmation and I will add you to the list.
