A good learning for me. I should give my cell phone munber to my customers next time :)But my English is not good. So i like email better than phone sometimes.
We also suggested our customers to use WU sometimes, because it will save our handling charge when we receive the small payment. For example, our customer need to pay sample courier charge about USD80 to us. Maybe the WU is much better. If they wire the money to our company 's bank account, oh my god, half money will pay to the bank! ![]()
If trust each other, the business can be going on.
If not, then stop. No one will be lost.
Good luck.
Dear Jani,
I cnn understan your mood,that's right the Swedish Company do not well
do a good job!They should have contact you and keep you undate!
I think you can also learn from this experience that ,in the business world,we should confront so many unexpect things,and we must be careful to deal with all the matters,
Just as one friend in the forum said:Use the logic,and think it this way,you have saved yourself hundreds of dollars,
That's right all of us should pay attention to this ,and it is important to be a
honest businessman!
A good business relationship is built on mutual understanding and trust!
All shall be well,after all tomorrow is another day!
Regards
Jennifer
Quoting from [aphilipson613]:Quoting from [Egernia]:I think that you would be foolish to send more money to this guy.
If the company is so big that they have a financial department and training etc then they would not be using Western Union for payments and the payments would certainly not be sent to an individuals name. You have to use logic here.
Clearly a scammer and you have saved yourself hundreds of dollars.
RE: SWEDISH COMPANYTHE COMPANY IS A BONA FIDE COMPANY AND YOU SHOULD DEFINATELY DO BUSINESS WITH THEM. SWEDEN IS A COUNTRY OF PROFESSIONAL BUSINESS PEOPLE AND A RICH COUNTRY AS WELL AND YOU WILL MAKE A MISTAKE BY NOT CONTINUING YOUR RELATIONSHIP WITH THEM.

it doesn't matter which country you are from. You scam, you scam.
Quoting from [kokotj]:
I must thank you all for the answers, they are beyond my expectations (in positive meaning).
I made a 1 big mistake (and I think this is an nobie mistake), I was to IMPATIENT, and because of this I made a money deposit even if I was skeptical.
So to all who they are searching for good suppliers, the first rule is:
- don't be IMPATIENT
First rule
If things seems to be too good to be true,then its not true.
do you really think its possible to sell n95-8gb for 140u$ and get profit from it,if you think so then learn your lesson and be scammed.
Quoting from [Egernia]:Fair enough. I have edited my earlier post as it was pre-emptive of me to use the word 'scammer'. I guess that I am skeptical when the red flags of WU and foreign brand name products come up. Just reflex action I guess.
I have some problems with the situation described above and since you are here on the forum it might be a good chance to clear those up.
As mentioned above, payments made to individuals on behalf of companies is something that scammers do. Sure there may be legitimate reasons for this, you mention time as being one, but there are other more secure payment methods that you could offer to customers that are also quick. Given the environment of the internet you may want to reconsider your practices or in the very least reassure potential customers by providing them with full information and without delay.
I think that the customer has a pretty good question that seems to have gone unanswered. If you knew in advance that you were going to be out of the office then why didn't you tell him that and/or make plans for someone else to help out. It seems that he had no number to contact your whole company on - is he missing something here or is there no telephone and street contact information on your website. Were all 14 members of your company out of the office at the same time? Surely you can understand the customers concerns when he sends basically a cash payment to someone he does not know and then hears nothing from the seller.
Why wasn't the payment removed from WU in two days? Well I am not sure that a scammer would always take the money ASAP as he knows that he has time before people discover the scam, so I don't think that this verifies your company.
I am interested in your supply of the products you sell. According to what you wrote in your emails to the customer you have a range of brand name products from different brand name companies. Where do you source your products from (Of course I am not asking for an exact location just what avenue you obtain your products)?
I have removed the reference to scammer from my earlier post as you are correct that this was an unsupported conclusion, but I stand by my other comments until I see reason otherwise. I am an honorable person and will certainly admit I am wrong if there are reasons for all of the above.
It will be interesting to hear from you again as we don't often have the chance to hear both sides of the story here.
Dear Ladies and Gentlemen!
I think, after a while I shall give you the fair and exact answer. It is serious company or a deceit!!! The information will be authentic and checked up.
