Hi Care,

I also told something about this but here we go again. I have also some problems with this fraud companies. Like I told before never pay attention on these companies form especially Nigeria, Benin, Togo. I'm not making racial discramination but if they don't want to have good products they have to keep surviving. To import good products means, good knowledge and good relations. But I guess they will never be able to build up good relations. The 419Nigerian shows the truth. Even today I had a problem again from a Nigerian guy who makes me dizzy with his stupid email. Spam filters, blocking messages etc. what else we do they will come back with new addresses.

They always ask for free samples without payment and handling charges etc. They way I always follow is that I offer to send the goods with value and I can reduce the sample order cost with full expenses from their initial order. Today one of these clever??? guys, which I refused in sending free samples and accepted with my offer told me that his bank can not make the transfer. Ok, I prepared him a fuuny P/I in 198.250,00€ which he will not be able to pay and I thought this will be enough to him to continue with me but he did. His bank??? informed me like below;

As you can see a mobile phone numbe abow, which is belonging to this guy, a rule which you can never see on any kind of bank to charge such a stupid amount because of stupid reasons, an free YAHOO email for a bank???? Many stupid things more inside. So as much as they will come, we have to be ready for defence. The revenge will come soon.

Once again and at least never pay attention to companies from this countries, don't waste time, don't waste money.MaRcO

I entirely agree with you and I disregard all inquiries which

Hi Pikk uk

Usually those guy belong to Fraud Gorup
They will give you big order in advance some case
are money transfer (is total false)

If Africa customer is importer, usually he no need us to send our company
Invitation letter for him to apply the visa to your country.

It means this guy is the 1st time tyring to go aboard.

Nigeria guy only wanted you to use your company invitaiton letter to apply the visa
This is false/fraud.

I have experience for your case 15 years ago, They use our company invitation letter
to apply visa to come to Taiwan. Frank speaking all is trick. You will not only
lost your time but also money.
Becuase this guy only wanted to cheat us.
After you reply him and they will ask you paid the air-ticket (round trip) from Nigeria to your country.
