... up till the second mail,I think it is a scam,based on
1. why I make the payment under a TNT agent's name?
2. too much details about the payment but not the product
3. about the US warranty in first mail.
so I send a third mail, try to see what happens ... |
This is a common old scam. You'd get a fake email, looking like it was fromTNT, elling you to go to Western Union and send the cash. Western Union is an untracable cash ransfer company - your money thus ends up anywhere in the world, and you'll never know who took it. Even the police could not find out.
Just think of this mantra - "If it says "Western Union" it is a scam". |

Thanks for the mail!
First of all I must inform you that right now i`m out of town. I got the opportunity to open a franchise in London, England with a partner, so i had to move here for few months.
The product is brand new, with warranty. Not Refurbished!
I hope you are still interested and we can make the deal happen right away.
Let me know and i will send you more details.
Best Regards. |

I got the exact email to the one above me, followed by this:
So this is what i suggest, i think this is the best and safest way for the two of us.
I will ship it to you. I will support all the shipping taxes. Shipping will take usually: 48 hours.
Obviously we need a safe way to complete this deal that will allow us to make sure we receive what we are after.
I have found a way for us to complete the deal safely and fast!
The solution is provided by a international shipping company DHL.
It is explained step by step below:
- First I will need your shipping information (i.e. name and address).
1. With this info, I will go to a DHL Location send the item to your name and address provided.
2. DHL will inspect the package and all the legal papers.
- As soon as the item is in DHL custody, you will receive a notification from them.
1. After that, you will make the payment for the item, and send the payment information to DHL for verification.
2. DHL will verify the payment information, and if everything is in order, they will deliver the product to your door step, and you will verify that everything is as supposed.
3. You will inform DHL that everything is in order, and they will release the payment to me.
- If by any reason, you will not be satisfied with the package, you will return the product to DHL with no expense!
I will be waiting for your email.
Best Regards.
