Yes, this post is dedicated to those who wish to report to the police but have no idea how to do so after been scammed especially to victims from cheapest-deal.blogspot.

8 tips when shopping with blogshop sellers

I know, many of us love to shop online, especially participating in sprees and buying from blogshop sellers with products that are either at rock-bottom rates or products that are not available for sale in Singapore.

But there are risks involved. Due to the nature, blogshops are easy to set up, anyone can start selling anything online. At the same time, this gives a lot more room to unethical sellers who close their blogs immediately after receiving payments and simply refuse to answer to any emails, SMS or calls. Read more

Scam Blog Found #1 – K-Sayuri Scam

April 9, 2009 by admin  
Filed under Scam Blogshops, Scam and Complaint BlogShops

I started going through forums and blogshop reviews during the setting up of this site. My objective is to be able to compile as many recent stories as possible, so as to keep a central area with all the information collected.

While going through the Flowerpod forum, I came across some replies which lead me to K-Sayuri Scam related blog. Apparently, a blog named K-Sayuri was created in blogspot and was selling some of the Victoria Secret collection and other branded perfumes at slash prices.

The blog was deleted on the day when the seller claims to have migrated elsewhere. Her contact email was deleted and the number that she has left to contact her so-called partner, has only a permament engaged tone.
