Jawo Posted March 31, 2007 Report Share Posted March 31, 2007 Back earlier this month, I bought a Daytona off Bluefakes being oblivious to the rep world. They got me to send them a wire payment since they did not accept credit cards. After getting treated like [censored] from "Chad" I felt very uneasy with the purchase after I did the wire transfer. I found this fourum and verified my suspicions. I thought that my money was lost forever, $1100 of it. This past month has been a very tough journey. I have spoken with the FTC, BBB, RCMP, security and fraud commisioners/agents. I am extremely persistant when it comes to getting screwed. I am happy to let you know that several of Bluefakes bank accounts have been frozen. They are under full investigation and 2 of their websites have been shut down. I have just got my wire transfer refunded in full, after a constant stream of messages and communication with the right people. Despite what forums and members have been saying about Andrew and Joshua, I think they are a blessing compared to these [censored]ing crooks. This is what I know of the bluefakes enterprise: - Bluefakes, Fullswiss, Zenithmotor, Redhotwatch and fakereviews.com are all the same scammers. - They operate from cell phones - Once the money is wired from your bank, the funds go through multiple channels and ABA routing to a prepaid credit/debit card company where they immediatlely withdrawl money once the account is credited. - It is hard for a victim to track or reverse the funds since so many channels are used. - bluefakes owner's names may include Rita Harris, Linda Harris, Caroline Hand. All of which are probably fake. It is very nice to see justice being served. These crooks might be hard to chase down, and eventually might lead them to open more scam websites. Buyer beware should be emphasized more than ever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jawo Posted March 31, 2007 Author Report Share Posted March 31, 2007 Well, it looks like bluefakes have found a new host. They were down for the last few days, but back and up again. I imagine not for long when they get nailed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
By-Tor Posted March 31, 2007 Report Share Posted March 31, 2007 Wow... great to hear. Good work. I understood from your message that you didn't receive anything... but do you have any idea where are they (Bluefakes etc.) shipping their watches from?

section8 Posted March 31, 2007 Report Share Posted March 31, 2007 Wow, sorry you got burned, but excellent work on getting your money back and shutting them down. Too bad it looks like they've started up again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KB Posted March 31, 2007 Report Share Posted March 31, 2007 Yes great job getting your money back but unfortunately short of putting these guy's in jail you will never shut them down the money is far to easily collected so they will simply move to another server and carry on.
