never buy anything direct from FB. it is almost not traceable.

What i do now is, once FB advertised, go qoo10 or lazada to find the same product, and chances are, you will get them cheaper.

Thought about it. But dun think police will be bothered about such small case. If old people kena con transfer big sum money, they do act fast to try to stop the transfer if still not through. If through, they also cant do further.

I am not sure what is his arrangement with the supplier. But from what i experience his scam is well planned. He, supplier (from china) and ninjavan can push responsibility around. I think "he" may be some shift workers in china that know some esglish. Thru fb, he can con all over the world, maybe earn $10 each deal but a few hundred deal per day. Singapore alone many kena but kept quiet.
Great. To me as a buyer, I choose COD simply because I can check item before paying. So if you tell me cannot check, thanks lor, take it back. Bye. lol

Fb has a reporting func that i activated. It just send an alert they r looking into it. Without asking me for details, i think it may be just a paper tiger.
