Fake freight forwarder.
We transfered US$500 to Kareem Mohid ([protected]@gmail.com) to purchase iPAD.
After receiving initial charges, He ramped up customs charges, clearance fees, etc. and reporting that the package is now cleared Korea customs and is waiting at a local depot for release upon more clearance fees using an apparently fake shipping company called Cheetah Express Service:
He sent pricture of senders receipt for the shipment as attached.
We received email with the tracking number and notification to pay for demorage charge fees from Cheetah Express.
Could find tracking status on there web site. : www.ccu-xpressservice.eu.pn
But everything was fake !
The complaint has been investigated and resolved to the customer’s satisfaction.
My friend also encountered the same problem. He ordered a bulk of 12 Ipads in total. Of course 50% were to be paid. so $1400 were through western union. The the other 50% were to be made upon goods arrival in Singapore. My friend did as told. Then an extra of $1800 were requested because a total of 12 cartons were shipped instead of 12 pcs. Well, a tracking number was indeed given & it stated that the package was indeed onhold.. I guess this FAKE SHIPPING COMPANY was another scam created by this so called KAREEM MOHID (mohidmall@gmail.com).
Yes, I ran into this problem, I bought 5 pieces Ipad2, but then they asked me to pay more for 5 pieces ipad2, I refused, and ultimately did not receive the goods, and lost $ 1400
Do not believe Karееm Mohid he conman( mohidmall@gmail.com)
I also ran into this cheater, I order 1piece and when I wire the say amount, he told me I need to order 2pcs as this is a promotion items. When I make the 2nd TT, he come up with another story saying that the shipper ship 8pcs instead of 2pcs and request me to make another TT of SGD500. This Kareem is Cheater, I loss a total of more then USD600. Dont ever trust this name.
I had reported police. He used another person's bank account by the name of ZAITON BINTI PALAH, CIMB BANK. Then said shipment delay, have use Western Union to transfer S$500 to another person name of Steve Dempsey in order to get the items. Of course I don't fall into more payment scam. One thing to note, never never use Western Union (completely no trace).
These conman will use another person's Bank account to avoid detection by promising huge share of money received. The person who facilitate the Banking can be classifed as cohort with the scammer to cheap. Usually these people don't know where the money come from. I am sorting out with the Bank to get my money back. Western Union, completely no trace. No on I only stick to PayPal.com of Credit card payment, at least they protect buyer. This Kareem Contact found from Internet +[protected] +[protected]
I was referring to the comment by Mr. Alan Tan . Beside the TT Person name (Steve Dempsey), there is another name to include, which is Felix Daniel. I totally agreed with Alan, don't ever used Western Union to make any payment.
I sincerely hope the international protection body do something to it before anyone get into their list? Nowadays the technology is so advance that internet con case can be trace easily. The email that this"Kareem" used is mohidmall@gmail.com and the MSN ID is wolesinuowo@hotmail.com. I believed with the Internet Expert help, this guy can easily be trace.
Did someone notice that all the TT is make to Malaysia and I believed this guy is living in Malaysia?

He posted on gmarket again and i almost got scammed. Wanted to bulk order 3. Luckily i find it suspicious and googled his name and chanced upon this page. Thanks sooo much. And i'll warn all the gmarket people that wants to purchase from him now about this.
Why don't you people contact the police or Fbi since Thomas 3536 said he targeted his location. This conman is most likely using an alias his email addresses are probably fake by using guerillamail (Expires after a few hrs and can fwd and rcv email to any address) and most likely that location is a coffee shop or an IP spoofer created to send you all on a while goose chase. The sad thing about this is he is targeting people on job sites now offering them jobs. Through Careerbuilder and monster and so forth...but the best thing you guys can do it take all documents you have and make copies for the police and Fbi especially since this guy could be using your money to fund terrorist organizations.
