Default Scam By Ian Thornton.

Dear all users.

i need your help on this. I was scammed by a person in the UK. He told me he worked for just the shop ltd based out in the UK.

I shipped him some goods after his bank manager and himself have faxed a receipt for a money transfer they where about to sent me.

They faxed the copy to my bank manager and afterwards he called the UK bank manager to confirm the transfer.

I shipped out my products and when buyer received them he stopped all contact. and i have not seen any money yet as the transfer was made on the 28-02-08. i shipped the phone through UPS who delivered the package in the UK in a residental area.A guy named Thornton who i was in contact with signed the recipt of that the package was delivered.

1 MONK TERRACE VANCOUVER ROAD
SE23 2AP was the delivery adress of my shipment.

The fax recipt for the money transfer was sent from: Lloyds TSB adressed at:
Lloyds Tsb Bank Plc 1 Marlborough Square Coalville Leicestershire LE67 3WD

The fax contained like 4 pages with the buyers account details, bank account number, sort code, name of bank manager, and signed by them both.

I have shipped him phones for 5125 euro, and no money recived, how is it possible to make these document without being involved into the bank in some way.

I have the following details:

I have traced it to be an UK internet provider, now considering a letter for debt collection at the delivery adress.

What do you guys think? as most of you live in the U.K
