Reviews and Complaints

This is about TNT Hong Kong, our order shipped from Hong Kong to Riyadh by express service but the sales of TNT Hong Kong change it by economic servise, and that results our order stoped by customs in Bahrain, and our order delay 3 more weeks, that means if sent by express, good can be received within 1 week, but actually it takes 1 months. we lost our customer.

TNT Hong Kong should take responsibility.

TNT has been altering their wiki page and removing anything negative said about them, if you have been ripped off by them go into the history of the wiki page and repost the previous accounts and references - especially this one

"Disputes: TNT Express, according to the Better Business Bureau, [8] has multiple claims of attempts to collect nonexisting customs duty charges from individuals. Invoices are sent in the mail after delivery with badly legible documents that are declared to be copies of customs documents. Other delivery services when collecting true customs duties will hold your item or package until the charges are paid. Invoices provide a telephone number for inquires originating in Mississauga, ON for the Duty Collections Department which is not staffed. TNT Express is not accredited by the Better Business Bureau."

they keep removing this entry
you can see for yourself and check the references in the history of the page - I don't think they can get at those, if they could they would erase them
been ripped off? do something about it, this company needs a smack with the god stick, repost all the negative evidence and ask wikipedia to lock it so they cannot remove it
cheers

wake like lions after slumber
in an insurmountable number
shake to earth these chains like dew
which in your sleep has been placed on you
because you are many and they are few

Thanks for the post! I was almost burned, wish people earned money the honest was!

Hi,

Well, I found a way to sell you the ipad that will cover the both of us. It's a worldwide delivery company called TNT. They have a service that will allow you to test the ipad before I receive my payment.
Please go to the TNT website below and read their procedure so we can be on the same page:

Subject: the 64GB WIFI + 3G iPad from Craigslist $400

Hi, I am getting back to you regarding the 64GB 3G iPad from Craigslist

My name is Arianna and I am now in Wolverhampton, United Kingdom.
I am selling the ipad for $400 USD. I have attached some pics with it to this email.
The ipad is still available and I hope you are still interested. The ipad was bought brand new from Apple a few weeks ago.
About the ipad I can say it's in perfect shape, as I used it only for a few weeks. Included in the $400 price is everything that came with the ipad.
The ipad is here with me.
I tried to be as thorough as I could with the presentation so you can have all the info if you decide to go ahead and buy it.

Please get back to me and let me know if you like the ipad if you're really interested in buying it.

Thanks,
Arianna

I almost fell for it too! Thanks for everyone's posts here I saved $580 (for a supposedly 10 week old MacBook Pro). Here's what she sent me.

First Response:
"Hi,

The MacBook Pro is still available, but I'm currently in London, United Kingdom. Because of the financial crisis, I lost my job in United States and I had to come back to my family.
I don't need the laptop anymore so I tried to sell it locally, but with no luck. I was offered silly money for the laptop because of issues like - it is a US version or the warranty doesn't work here or that it has a US keyboard format. That's why I'm trying my luck in the US.
I hope you are still interested. The laptop was bought brand new from Best Buy a 10 weeks ago. I have attached some pics with it to this email.
About the laptop I can say it is 10 weeks old and it is in good shape, no scratches, no dents as you can see from the pics I've sent. Included in the $580 price is everything the laptop came with when it was new, including the original manuals and warranty papers. The warranty is fully transferable to the new owner.
The laptop is here with me in UK.
I tried to be as thorough as I could with the presentation so you can have all the info if you decide to go ahead and buy it.
Please get back to me and let me know if you like the laptop if you're really interested in buying it.

Thanks,
Bianca"

Second Response:
"Hi,
I will attach the pics to this mail.
Well, I found a way to sell the laptop that will be safe for both of us. It's a worldwide delivery company called TNT. They have a service that will allow you to test the laptop before I receive my payment.
Please go to the TNT website below and read their procedure so we can be on the same page:

If you agree to their terms please send me your name and address and I will start the delivery procedure.

Thanks,

My Final Response:
"Bianca",

Well, since you didn't provide me proof of purchase, the warranty expiration date doesn't match when you said you purchased, and of course because there are TONS of complaints about this very scam, I'm going to have to pass. It's too bad too because during my research I came across another company that could help you, me and a host of other people out. This company is called The Police. Since I'm a nice person, I went ahead and forwarded these emails to them, at no expense to you. If you would like further information, and to confirm this transaction please follow this link:

http://www.consumerfraudreporting.org/feedback.htm

Thanks and God Bless!

I got the pics I requested and checked the serial number on Apple.com. First flag (aside from intuition) was that the warranty expiration date didn't match when she told me she purchased it. Thanks again for everyone's posts and saving me. I'll just save for some months and buy from Apple Store.

Thanks for this information!

See my experience here: TNT OVERSEAS — Fake Sale of Flat Screen TV on Craigslist

I fell for the same scam.

from the same person too, this 'Arianna'

My was for a 46" sony bravia hd tv.

I just sent the money yesterday, so now im [censor]ed.

Is there anything I can do?

Here are the first two emails, In the first email she sent pictures too so i thought it was legit. I cant believe i fell for this.

Hi, I am getting back to you regarding the 46" Sony LCD, 1080p full HDTV from Craigslist

My name is Arianna and I am now in Torino, Italy.
I am selling the 46" Sony LCD, 1080p, full HDTV, 120 Mhz for $370 USD. I have attached some pics so you can see the condition of the TV.
The TV is still available and I hope you are still interested.This TV was ordered brand new 4 months ago.
About the TV I can say it is 4 months old and it is in good shape, no scratches, no dents as you can see from the pics I've sent. Included in the $370 price is everything the TV came with when it was new, including the original manuals and warranty papers. The TV still has warranty for the next 20 months. The warranty is fully transferable to the new owner.
The TV is here with me in Italy.
I tried to be as thorough as I could with the presentation so you can have all the info if you decide to go ahead and buy it.
I have used the TV mostly for the news and movies, so I would say it has been only lightly used.
One more thing, the TV is an US version and it works on the US power and plug system so you do not need a converter to use it in the US.

Please get back to me and let me know if you like the TV if you're really interested in buying it.

Thanks,
Arianna

Well I've received a Sweepstakes one and MR TAYLOR WHITE said to me after I said to him that people advise people like me to say that you could be a scam or con. He replied never never think of us as a scam and so and so about the payment he said.

2 things impressed me which was

1 he attached the winning certificute

2 he halfed the cheaper option as I told him I was a student

I spoke to another person who said it's not a problem all you do is this.

NOW I'm going to go forward with this so that I discover a lesson or just be in with the chance of it happening to be true.

If you didn't enter any lottery, chances are you didn't win it. Also, any time you win money from a legitimate outlet, they'll (as far as I know) never ask you for any money. The best thing to do if you suspect a scam is to google the name of the company...that's how I found this site.

Well, the Bible says you cannot serve God and mammon (which I think is an older term for money or wealth, but you can google it) so I don't suppose they'll be happy at the judgment if they don't repent. I've gotten into the habit, if I think something is a scam, to just put the alleged company's name into a search engine...that's how I found this site!

Got the same crap - from amarketa@uwlax.edu. The e-mail actually originated from a uwlax.edu server - I sent the IT group an e-mail about the spam and asked them to investigate - though I imagine I'll never hear anything about it.

I received this email today. Sad thing is that there is probably someone out there who sent them the money hoping it was for real. I agree there is a special place in hell for people like this!

Greetings!
You have a bank draft of $780, 000.00 USD, which await the outstanding payment of $275USD.Contact the TNT courier company for claims with the following information for verification of your address in our office (1) Full Names (2) Residental Address(no P.O.Box) (3)Contact Phone Number.

Whether it is true or not kindly convey me details.

A look at the complaints should trigger some investigations so that the fraudsters can be lured into the net and be procecuted to save the innocent people who are being robbed of their cash daily. The companies whose names are being coined and used to look like it is genuine must take steps now or risk losing business. How can we tell the differences?

I live in Canada and received a sample gift from China, the gift may cost the most $20 dollars. I asked the gift shop if there any extra fee if I receive this gift, they confirmed me that won't be any charge from the courier. 8 months later, I received a bill from TNT courier with the amount of $27.58, brokage fee. Asked them why I received the bill so late, if not I would not accept the package. Told me they are always back log for a year or so to bill, which is unbelievable lie ... I emailed the gift shop and will not get or buy anything from them if they use TNT courier.
