Importghuru,

When did you receive this?  Did you receive it in your Alibaba in-basket?  If yes, do you still have it?  If not was it receieved in your home or business email?  Sorry for all the questions.  I reported this company to Alibaba about a week ago and if they are still active, I'd like to know about it.

--Sharla

Replying to [tworiverstradingco]:This person is still active under 2 different ID's. One is Sadler Gay and the other is Gary Sadler.

I got all of his contact information before reporting him, but happens if Toystore UK sues Alibaba for their name being used in the scam?
