www.szacid.com SCAM Fraud

Hi,

Not posted on here for a while and appreciate this might be the wrong place on the forum so please move it to the correct place if you have one but I want this information visible on the web ASAP.

I would like to report this company as a Fraud and a Scammer.

Sent a small amount of money(could afford to lose thankfully) via Western Union to buy 3 China Pads and have never heard back from them since the money was collected. No answer to emails or response on MSN.

The company details are as follows:

Email : sales.alex@szacid.com

I hope this helps save someone else from being scammed and losing any money.

Thanks

    Payment by Western Union = SCAM.
    No reputable business should request payment using a money transfer system such as WU.

    Found them via either https://www.tradekey.com or https://www.alibaba.com. Not sure which as I trawled through so many companies. They have been reported there also.

    Nobody ASKS for it at all. There are people selling these Android tablets on Ebay already. I ordered 3 via this company, to try to sell on. The loss of £80 is annoying but the real loss is the £210 return I should've got.
