hi to all collectors,

i only want to inform you that there is a crook from philippines
who offers the intel 4004 gold watch with die core to collectors.
he also offered me the watch and he wanted to ask 400 $ for it.
i suggested 150$ and he agreed. for the payment we agreed the half
before shipping and the rest after shipping. he seemed to be serious
and i payed 75$. after that i heard nothing from him for 3 month.

now i heard from the same sitiation from a other collector. so this
man is absolutely a crook.

his name is: JASON MENDOZA and is from the Philippines. icon_chainsaw

he always come with the same story. his brother worked at a intel fab there and got the watch years ago. now he has to sell it because he
need money for his family.

so if anyone of you will get this watch offered: first shipping and then
payment!

~~~

Yeah - don't deal with anyone from Phillipines, Indonesia, Malaysia, Singapore or Thailand. Sorry to any legitimate people from these countries, but a LOT of fraud comes from these, so not worth the risk

Can you file a complain for the payment through Paypal?
