Post 1 of 21
How many times must this be stated on these forums??? DO NOT T/T funds to anyone unless you have checked them out 150%!!!
Once its out of your account the $ is no longer yours!

To quote you from another thread....
"Replying to [partsman]: I hate to say it but your $ isgone for good if the supplier does not contact you back. TT is like cash. Once its out of your bank system the receiver owns it. Banks CANNOT do anything to get your $ back once its sent and into the receivers bank system. Banks are only vehicles to tranfser $. Your only recourse is to attempt to find the supplier then try to get your $ or product you paid for. Highly unlikely though that it wil happen. Chalk it up to experience that you NEVER TT funds to anyone!!!"
MAYBE THIS SHOULD BE LOCKED AT THE TOP FOR ALL TO SEE.
For anyone interested, the link for the entire thread is below....

Spot on Ozzy. Problem seems to be that even really careful Newbies get ripped off simply because they are unaware of the finer points of doing due diligence.
How to educate has got me near stumped. Although, I'm starting to think seriously about your idea of a Topic locked into top spot ... something called "Due Diligence" over in my Trade Terms forum as it's a trade term needing careful explanation.

Yea but still, if you are located in the same country or even closer to the person that you transfered the money. You can dispuet charges against them, and even bring them into civil court. So there is still a chance of seeing your money.

Replying to [Xeron]: Thats if you can find them to sue them that is. Then try and find a lawyer that will take the case. Unless the value is high enough a lawyer will not deal with it so that leaves small claims court! Even if you are in the same country that doesnt make it any easier to get your $ back!
The key is to fly and buy or else have an inspector stand by when they load the container and then make the payment via D/P in total after the inspection and contianer is locked with the inspewctor standing their photographing the seal and lock.

GoldStar, I have a close friend here on Ali baba who got into this same situation. She had transfered a sum of the payment for units via T/T. After couple weeks after no contact from the supplier she filed a complaint. She sent over evidence to the chief or officers that are located in the area of the supplier. The officers raided the apartment and talked to the guy, and told him that he must pay or go to jail. Now the guy had taken a job to get the money back and pay back.
It is possible to get your money back if your in the same country, if you have the motivation and proof its very possible.
