TV ad/What kind of scam is this?

[prepress]

Hi Prepress,

I keep getting these type of emails all the time in my junk folder. At least 20 of them per week. Call them "NIGERIA SCAMS".

Just look and delete them there and then!

Yes, I do it but shared as we were talking about the scams.

I have a special folder for them as well,its a comic relief once in a while !

:lol: True, not sure what they people think about us and try to make fool however many victims are there; specially old age people.

Ohh yes, looking at my email in my junk folder, I am missing these opportunities of being multi milliner from many years.

Those scammers are losing hopes because of people like you :lol:

True.
However, how do I know that you will deliver once you have got the money? There is no recourse for me. Your only name is through the net and I have no recourse if you do not deliver. I understand you not to pay company money to send me a product, in the same way how can I make sure that you will deliver the goods?

Regards
________________________________________________
We only accept part payment of 50% upfront to enable us pay for customs/shipping charges and the rest amount paid at delivery, as you dont expect company to use our pocket money to send you goods just like that without a quarrantee of payment after delivery.

Another Scam ad in olx.....just was ridiculously low pricing...though im not interested in that product...just sent a mail....and then asked for COD..." No response now"....it seems that the format of proposal is same for the three scam ads...looks like one person or associated group is doing all this...

 

[Vinod.R]

That is fun part of it. If we all start asking COD, I am sure they will change their modus operandi.

I thought of replying :

Hi,
Thanks for your reply. I want to buy 1 unit for myself only. Just one question, how come this product is this much cheap? I mean it is not launched in India yet,right?
Can I see the pics of the TV before going ahead with the order? You can also send me send to me on my number 9503865747, If you have whatsapp number. Thanks..

Again a reply :
The cause of our price reduction is as a result of our sales
promotion/bonanza that started 20th last month and any customer that
purchase this product from now till 19th of this month will only enjoy
the promotion, because after this time the price of the product will
go higher to the normal market price purchase. The reason for our
sales promotion is because we are opening new outlets some cities at
India, so this is a medium for us to gain a large and sustainable
market share even if we can only break-even for now

Regards
Mgt

Me :
Hi,
thanks for your reply. I dont see the model number properly in the pic also the image is not clear. Do you have any other TVs in a smaller size like 43 inches? Also can I do COD while receiving the product? :lol:

Seller :
Yes we have LG Electronics 43UJ6300 43-inch 4K Ultra HD Smart LED TV
(2017 Model)

Price Rs 28,000

We accept part payment of 40% upfront to enable us incur
shipping/handling charges,and other logistics then the rest amount 60%
will be paid cash on delivery after checking the genuineness/quality
and accessories of the LED TV

Mgt

Then he pinged me on whatsapp again tried to convince for payment, but I denied that.

The funny part here is, the models he told me have not widely released yet and he was saying that those have official warranty... How it possible? :lol:
