I'm sorry sir, but I don't think I'm going to send any money to you for your products. As I research buying from China, I find 2 important things to consider. 1. If I can buy a very expensive phone from you for REAL cheap, why isn't EVERYONE getting it at the same price? 2. There are to many scammers from this region: City : Shenzhen
Provice : Guangdong
Country: China
Postcode (optional): 518000

I have sent an email to the company listed in your emails to verify your authenticity. I mean no disrespect at all!! I'm just NOT going to send my hard earned money to some low life scammer!! If you can prove your who you say you are, I will continue with the order immediately!

Thank you kindly
_______________________________________________________________________________-

Well, that is the whole email to this point. I sent the last email to see if he/she would defend the company and send some other kind of proof that they are real. Can anyone give me some input on this situation please!? Thank you in advance!

Anyone in China offering brand name electronics at "too good to be true" prices is a scammer.

At best, you will get a cheap poor quality fake worth lot less than you paid and at worse nothing at all.

ETA: Add to that the Western Union request and free email address and it just confirms it.

Please do not tell scammers that they are listed here - it will take them seconds to change their fake details and their new details will not be listed for any future victims to find.

Welcome to Scamwarners dlohart,
It is a scam
Payment Terms: TT/Western Union

No legitimate company asks for a payment via Western Union.

It is ALWAYS a scam
If the pet seller or shipper asks for money to be sent via Western Union, Money Gram, any brand of gift card. Walmart To Walmart , Zelle , PayPal friends and family option, or mentions Cameroon

At best, you will get cheap knock-offs. At worst, nothing at all or something that is downright unsafe.

Thanks to the replies. I am glad to know I saved a couple dollars. Been researching this company for 2 days now.

Hello,
sorry 1st for my English.

I ordered 200 usb keys, but they stole my money and send me FAKE trucking number.

190$ :-(
Is it possible that I report that to police?
