questionable: Transport Central

Postby chinavietboi32 » Fri Jun 08, 2007 9:45 pm

hi everyone,

i was wondering if you guys could help me out with verifying this "shipping company." the url is http://www.transcentrals.st/ and i know that the .st extension is a give away because it means that it is in Sao Tome & Principe, but i am new to buying online (much less buying a motored vehicle). i am buying a motorcycle from a guy and this is the shipping company that the bike is at (which is acting as the "third-party/escrow-type service). i send them money and i have up to 30 days inspection and only after i have decided to keep the bike will the seller get my money.

i'm had experience with exposing 3 fraudulent bike sales, but this one is throwing me off. i have never seen such great effort and professional-like attempt. plus, the seller is very legit. could it be that he is a victim of the fraudulent company and not know - that is the only reason why i am unsure about this.

thanks alot everyone in advance for your input.[/url]

Never mind everyone.

i just took a look at the database and the company in question resembles many of the fraudulent sites. But to ensure that the buyer is still legit, i will require him to go through the official Escrow.com. if he declines then i will cancel the transaction.

Hi chinaboy,

you should know that the seller and the third-party-shipping-company are the same persons resp, the same gangster-organisation.

There is no innocent "seller".. Don't be confidential !Don't give him any information concerning your identity.

They might use it for other frauds involving your person.

Greetings
