gborn, I am sorry to hear you were scammed again. If I am not wrong, I have seen several other
posts from you saying you have lost money as well. Could it be you are chasing for too
good and sweet a deal and in the process of trying to maximise your profits, you lose your money
instead ?
If you have noticed, the name and shame forums only bring awareness and highlights a problem to
everyone who participates in this forum. There are thousands of forums out there and others are still
none the wiser.
It will however not stop the scammer from trading under another name or re-appearing under another
name altogether once their scheme is exposed. I am not saying everyone or every company that
runs into money problems is running some big scam but obviously alot of people keep loosing
money.
If you have lost money, the best way is to take them to court, file a proper lawsuit and have their
assets seized or the person made a bankrupt. It is a long drawn process and it will cost you
more money but that is the only way of a good chance of having the matter settled and you get
back some money. If you can get all money back then it is great else a little is better than nothing
at all.
All the name bashing and all doesn't really help. This only lets you vent your frustration which is good
to a certain point but after the dust settles, the underlining problem is still there.
Take for example alibaba.com, there are so many scammers out there. If you look at the complaints
section, alot of "companies" are being named and shamed but then new "companies" emerge and
the scamming continues. It never ends.
So if you feel you have a valid case then you have to weigh the pros and cons. If it is worth all the
effort then taking it all the way through the courts. Like many others in this forum have said, any
other method just causes alot of confusion, blows alot of smoke but when the dust settles, it starts
all over again.
File a lawsuit and kick their a**.
