| 589796 | 2007-09-10 07:28:00 | Hold your pants for a sec, George....dug this out from my past convo with Eugene.... I picked up the PC I ordered from him personally at 98 Anzac Avenue in Auckland CBD. He said this place is a storage of some kind. Also, he has taken his CyberWorld Computer Company (CWCC) from the register. Have a look: www.companies.govt.nz So that proves he had a legit company selling computer stuff and services. Malaysia? The last time he was gone for a month he told me he was in Singapore. And Steven (Wang Biao An)? He told me his name was Eugene.... Other than this, I have nothing else, sorry. I'm sorry it has come to this, I've never encountered such problems dealing with Hicom. I think he will be back on MSN again - he always does after odd periods of being offline. And may I also suggest you talk to the bank he is with - ANZ and supply them with Eugene/Steven's account number. Hmm, unfortunately that does seem to add up: He uses the company names Cyber World Computers and Hicom PC. . Ringing ANZ now. |

| 589797 | 2007-09-10 07:33:00 | I fear ANZ won't do a thing unless a police fronts up with a warrant....you know, all the privacy acts crap. It might be worth to contact the companies.govt.nz site and ask if they can give you any addresses/contact numbers Eugene/Steven used to register his company. EDIT: Oooh, he's online now. I'm scolding him as I type this. |

| 589798 | 2007-09-10 07:36:00 | ANZ say that his bank account no longer exists and they have no customer called 'Hicom Ltd'. He's come on MSN now but is not replying. Edit: Sounds like he's talking to you. Tell him to do a bank transfer RIGHT NOW and take a screen shot. |

| 589799 | 2007-09-10 07:37:00 | He says to me he has written a cheque for you. But probably haven't sent it. Typical idiot. Hold on, still scolding him. | qazwsxokmijn (102) | ||
| 589800 | 2007-09-10 07:41:00 | He says to me he has written a cheque for you. But probably haven't sent it. Typical idiot. Hold on, still scolding him. Cheques are bad, they can bounce. I want a bank deposit now. It only takes a minute! |

| 589801 | 2007-09-10 07:47:00 | PM me your bank number again George. He says he has sent you the cheque 2 weeks ago. Must have 'conveniently' got lost in the post. I've fronted him up with the thread PaulD linked, and he says he can't open it. I then copy&pasted what the poster says, and now he says "brb". His excuse of having 3 different names is that the other 2 are 'colleagues'. I don't know whether to trust him anymore, either. I've made a few purchases from him myself, with least problems. |

| 589803 | 2007-09-10 07:53:00 | NZ post is deemed to be delivered, and in my experience is bloody reliable. He would also have noticed a $2k draw on his cheque account. As there has been no draw, there is no risk in a bank deposit - even if george was trying to defraud him (and he isn't) all he'd need to do is cancel the cheque. | Erayd (23) | ||

I would highly recommend you don't ever deal with him again. I don't think that guy ever got his money back. |
