I have $175 on my neteller account, I will give them to you if you help me. Iam looking for someone who can buy some items for me and a friend from the applestore (they who make ipods etc).

The reason I dont buy it myself if that they dont have same sortiment in Sweden as they have in US.
Theese items are only avaible in American Applestores.

I will ofcouse pay for the items and shipping also.

I recall this post/spam about a week ago in this forum. I'm currently trying to order a iPhone for $150, and as they're located in Glasgow, Scotland,(EU) we wont have to pay taxes.

Do you really trust those spammers? Did you pay upfront?

No was actually quite concerned with their marketing methods, extremely cheap prices and the fact that they don't even have a website.. lol

But... I've investigated it a bit, and think I've reached the conclusion that I'm willing to try shipping them $150 for a single iPhone. I'll transfer to their bank account, so I've got proof that I've paid them. Nevertheless, If they screw me, I've lost $150 - if they don't I can order a bunch and make a decent dollar..

That's such an obvious spam, it's ridiculous. Give the money to charity, the chance that you'll get an IPhone in return will about the same.

There is an old saying that is very relevant: "If the deal sounds too good to be true, it usually is!"

Learn from my misstake guys.

I got contacted from the member "Kuzma" here on PAW forum. We then starting chatting on AOL IM. He gave me real information, were he lived etc. He said the applestore was only 15 min from his house, and I looked it up and that was correct.

I wanted to buy 5 iPhones, a totalt of about $3000. I had collected the money 2 friends and I were gonna by 3 for my self and sell.

We had problems with payment, as americans couldent use neteller or moneybookers. So I paid him $1400 thrue fulltiltpoker this was because I could maximum deposit $800 thrue neteller and $600 thrue VISA. He recived the money and said he would by all 5 today, but only ship 2 tomorrow and waint for the rest of the money.

He left the chat, ofcouse I was a bit worried, making deals with strangers, but I really trusted this dude. I then found out that you can search for a player at FTP, then I saw it, he had registrated for several tournaments from the minute I send the money. I sent him an SMS and asked if he bought the phones, he logged in to AIM and said yes. I then wanted him to tell me the serial number, he just started lying more and more. I relized it, ive been scammed. He then said he would buy them tomorrow, but I have not heard anything from him.

I have been in contact with fulltiltpoker and the police, but it sucks that FTP dont have phonesupport and with the police that I live in Sweden. But I do know the name of this person and in which city he lives, if his phonenumber is secret i dont know.

$1400 is what some of you wipe youre ass with, but this was a very hard hit for an 18 year old like me to loose. Honestly, it doesent look like I will get my money back, but one thing that makes me sick is that he will not be punished any way.

If anyone know any contacts at fulltiltpoker, or information about the member Kuzma that they want to share, I would appreaciate it.

I regret that I dident search for information about this guy before I sent the money...

If you have been scammed I very much doubt you will see your money back. You can forward chat logs over to FTP support but again I am not sure what they can do to help "you" out. Why wouldnt you just use your visa to purchase from the store instead of doing it this way.
