Bag scammer got caught and offer refunds

Whether you are the buyer or seller, must know how to protect yourself from scammers.     Our experiences to share when you buying cheaper designer bags !! Beware and Take note of this !!

Suggest to buy  with   Trusted Sellers   save your money on cheaper Genuine items, too cheap too be true.  NO FREE LUNCH

Except  Used bag condition   3-7 out of 10 ratings.  Normally Seller will say  4/10, 7/10 if you do not mind dirts, stains, out of shape ... etc


Always on my mind to purchase with Care Card OR receipts for NEW bag  **if they from Singapore Malaysia Boutique**  or Oversea invoices without price mark up **Internal Agreement between you and seller   We must pay "FEES  to cover  airfares , hotels,  xxxx agents  fees   "some since they bring it back from Europe or US right ??   
no big deal   since   the   price still cheaper than local Boutique $50-150 =    sounds reasonable  - win -  win situation!!    OR   

VERY GOOD item  CONDITION  :   9/10  Serious Seller will not lost one of this if they intend to let go lower price  since bag as good as NEW.


We found ONLY serious sellers are willing to wait within 1-2 week payment before they pre order or sell you ready stocks*They are busy to prepare everything before fly off
So they have the right to chase payment if they really  keen to buy.     

 Same terms and condition   apply   to  who want to sell their bags should send their bags quickly asap - they are MIDDLE MEN to communicate between you and 3rd parties* 

Time, money, manpower, transport to consider too = FAIR 

They have the right to blacklist you if you against their rules.  Every business owner has the right NOT TO serve nasty or rude person.

Serious  Seller will provide you paypal - extra 7%  fees   and local bank account to bank in  DEPOSIT for both safety reason following by meet ups COD  OR    

usually  30% DEPOSIT (NON REFUNDABLE) upon agreement

30% during  2ND   PAYMENT  when goods arrived

 40%  COD   -   Check bag and Receive goods HOME SWEET HOME !! So if they not able to provide so you know what to do next ...

now, here are the important things that you should know if u are a victim of a fraud transaction/ fake bags:
**it's a CIVIL CASE as once the item is sold it means there's a mutual agreement. Meaning, even if you go to police to report that Seller the police will not do anything to search that person, although they have means to do it, they will not take any action. Unless, You file on your own to go to Crime Registry, and then once the order from Crime Registry is released, that's the time that Police will do their searching/ investigation.
i hope this info will help you guys and i know that seller is now smiling from ear to ear.

i all,

Just want to warn you about this user named "lyc" who sold me a fake used LV Bosphore Backpack at $750. Took it for authentication at LV store and discovered it was fake. He refused to reply to my SMSes after the transaction and remains uncontactable by phone or email, suspect he is buying prepaid SIM cards for each transaction and then throwing them away.

He provides items with dustbag and receipt. The receipt is a FORGERY and not valid at any store. Don't buy from him! His email is lyc0114@gmail.com, young chinese guy with slight China or HK accent. Save your money for genuine goods.

scammer got caught and offer refunds 

oman cheats 230 buyers of S$52,000 in online forum scam - Yahoo! News Singapore

Dear all,

there's a mention of this scammer offerring Spree in DM, those who are being scammed can try to contact ppl from Motherhood and get your refunds back.

good luck

======================================== ========

A woman who goes by the name of “Pauline Ong” has cheated at least 230 buyers of almost $52,000 in a series of online forum scams.

Confronted by irate buyers who turned up at her house earlier this month, she has since apologised and has started paying refunds to affected customers from at least nine different online sprees on the Singapore Motherhood forum.

An online spree takes place when a group of like-minded online buyers come together to bundle their purchases to enjoy better rates and save on shipping. It's frequently organised by people who have special connections or contacts in other countries who can bulk-purchase items for cheaper prices.

Using two separate nicknames, noelpauline and Cynthia.k, Ong had created at least nine threads under the forum’s Overseas Spree section from March this year to advertise attractive shipping fees, lower tax and exchange rates for items including bags, wristlets and lanyards from upscale brands like Coach, Kate Spade and Longchamp.

Ong’s initial sprees, run under her username noelpauline, were only partially fulfilled, however, and buyers complained of her unresponsiveness, subsequently demanding refunds.

They accused Ong of cancelling and postponing appointments to hand over items, and of not updating forum threads promptly with purchases and deliveries.

Cracks in her ruse appeared earlier this month, when a number of users on the forum first questioned the similarity between noelpauline and Cynthia.K.

One affected buyer, who declined to be named, said she contacted noelpauline by email as she was not a member of the Singapore Motherhood forum. She told Yahoo! Singapore that out of the blue, she received a separate email about a similar sale from a person named Cynthia, even though she had never contacted the latter before.

Another buyer who only wanted to be known as Mrs Tan said her experience of a buying spree organised by Ong left her disappointed.

“This was the first time I didn’t get a bag even after placing my order almost two months ago,” she said. “Usually if the bag is out of stock, the organiser (of the spree) would inform (us) quite fast, and (give us) refunds within a few days or a week.”

“I seriously feel she is not remorseful, judging from her numerous nicknames,” she added, explaining that users have to be members for more than a year before being able to post in the Overseas Sprees forum. “This seems like a well-planned scam.”

Other users started to post similar suspicions in Cynthia.K’s and noelpauline’s spree threads. But Ong waved them off, claiming they were “computer glitches” and insisting she did not know the other user.

She was finally barred from organising further sprees by forum moderators and earlier this month on 8 June, buyers who had been duped started demanding refunds. With a growing list of irate customers, some of whom threatened to file police reports, Ong relented and promised to return their money, appealing to them to avoid contacting the police.

After some of the buyers confronted Ong at her Jurong West flat later that evening, Ong admitted she owned both accounts, and that she had indeed cheated her customers of their money.

Ong’s father-in-law allegedly brokered a deal with the customers who met her in person, promising to pay everyone back if they held off filing police reports.

By then, a list of over 200 affected buyers had come forward, demanding refunds for amounts ranging from just $33 to more than $2,000, and Ong started paying them back in batches.

By Thursday evening, about 100 buyers have acknowledged receipt of the money they paid her. This amounted to slightly more than $22,000, about 40 per cent of the total.

Refunds have been scheduled till the end of next month, and affected buyers say they are still adopting a wait-and-see approach to decide whether or not to press charges against Ong.

Several attempts by Yahoo! Singapore to reach Ong for comment via her four listed mobile numbers and at least three email accounts were unsuccessful.

Was Ong behind older scams as well?

Since her scam was exposed, other buyers have also started coming forward with further accusations against Ong, saying her email addresses and usernames have turned up in other websites and forums offering similar deals as well.

Online searches for Ong’s multiple email accounts turn up pages on Gmarket and Deluxemall.com, offering sprees for luxury bags and childcare items.

One buyer, who goes by the nickname Mimosa, suspects Ong may have run similar sprees that ended in the same manner last year, under an account called lelebabyland.

She told Yahoo! Singapore her sister bought into the scam then, and experienced no-shows when she was supposed to meet the spree organiser. Refunds were also only disbursed about a month later.

Yet another user observed that the bank accounts used by another seller, who went by the nickname bagagreatdeal, was the same as the one used by Cynthia.k to collect money. After raising this to her directly, Ong said the former was her friend, who was using her bank account to collect money.

This is not the first time a scam has happened on the Singapore Motherhood forum. In June last year, a woman was arrested for masterminding a scam on Resorts World Sentosa hotel stays bundled with Universal Studios Singapore tickets, cheating about 130 people of more than $95,000.

i was one of the victim.. i purchased two longchamo planetes bag from her, and she keeps playing me around on the place of meet up, at first, she said the items were delayed due to the storms in europe, so i trusted her. Then she was always unable to meet up with me, till one day i told her i would go to the police to report if she still dont show up with my bags or my money, and she agreed. When i was about to meet her, she came up with another story saying that her "buyer" mixed up her orders and did not purchase my bag, and offered me that she will get her colleagues to purchase it again.. But during that period, i was about to leave singapore to my hometown, and she offered free shippings to me.. She even gave me fake tracking numbers after i called singpost to double check with her. I double checked with them, and there were no such tracking number posted so i called her again. Once i was back in singapore, i have decided to force her to meet me up, but was "played" by her for a few times. First day, she said she would meet me near my school, thn she cancelled and said she has meeting.
Second day, she said she would meet me at ngee ann city whre her office is, but when i arrived NAC, She gave excuses saying she has exhibition in Suntec and asked me to wait for her till 5pm ( it was only 11am), and i waited, BUT she said she was unable to leave again. Third day, she said she would ask her parents to bring it to me, BUT she came out with excuses saying her parents are going to visit her fren in JB, so wont be able to meet me again. I WAS SERIOUSLY FOOLED!!! Cant believe how stupid i was.. Then she just went missing... Uncontactable ( There goes my pocket money.. ARRGGHH

Hi all, kindly exercise caution when you deal with the above seller. She sold me a red Chanel jumbo, and since she claims she does not have paypal, I used western union to make a deposit of $1,680 to her.

The money has since been withdrawn but no news from her for past 3 days. Here's the information she has given me:

"
My real name, Marie Elaine Tan, address, 3977 Yague St. corner Chino Roces Avenue, Makati City
but you should send it to personal assistant, she's the one who is going to pick up the money since im still at work till 6pm.

here's her details:

Clarissa Carla Ang
address: 2 Mahogany St. Greenpark Village Pasig City, Philippines



here's my number: 09174459569


if you can able to send it before 5pm, the item will be shipped by her, so please send your complete Name & address & contact no.

40% of $4200 is $1680
this is the converted amount SGD to PHP
1,680 SGD = 56,688.98 PHP"
The thing is, her reply was already sporadic before the money was sent to her, and after I sent, she said her grandpa is in hospital and sorry for the delay in reply. The money was also withdrawn not immediately but a day later, so there was no urgency from her.

She has since not been updating her FB since her grandpa's admission to hospital. Previously, she loaded up her eldest daughter pics as well as where she goes. Her FB is here: http://www.facebook.com/purselovers

Its been 3 days, so im just posting here so that if she replies any deluxemallers, pls let me know, and do exercise caution in the meantime.
