i knew it was a scammer led him on, then today a fookin cheque comes though the door pmsl

for £5500

thing is its posted form the uk! its a uk bank, in london called AIB? allied irish banks?
says 11 old jewry london ec2rdp


the company is called symths toys ltd


i thought they were all abroad? it was the usual shipping company emails etc


i can see how this muct of fooled a lot of people

 

Bank it in a new account, don't tell him, then tell him you have been called away on business, you will ship the item next week.

How long does he have to cancel a cheque - see if you can string him along. I would guess he won't cancel the cheque until you have shipped?

 

Can't you take it to one of them "Cash It Now" places and get the cash???

 

bank it

 

pmsl im thinking its a fake cheque actually as cant find symths toys ltd

or a bank branch at 11 old jewry

 

i had this last week with my zx they dont give a shit that it costs you for the listing/selling fees

bank it and see if you can return the favour

 

lol i would bank it for a laugh if i knew i wouldnt encurr any charges ££??

 

open new account stick it in take the money out and spend it (then close the account)

 

even if the cheques real it'll probably bounce

 

BoooiingGGGG!

 

goto one of the instant cheque clearers and get the cash if you can. If not report it to the Police fraud squad! Our local Police station apparantly have a specific department for ebay fraud!!!!

 

You wont get a penny off that cheque, just take it to the smallest room in the house and put it to good use

Then send him a picture of it and say that "an accident happened"

 

company name does not even exist at companies house where all ltd companies are registered

Well as they have your address, I can't see how you're not going to get a visit over that one if the cheque does clear

 

Smyths Toys

31 Mulvoy Commercial Centre
Sean Mulvey Road
Galway
Telephone: 091 743600

 

now you have the address for:

Smyths Toys

31 Mulvoy Commercial Centre
Sean Mulvey Road
Galway
Telephone: 091 743600

But apples address is :

the company is called symths toys ltd


so who has the correct addy?

 

ok try this address then
Smyths Toys Ltd
Phone 028 90646660
Address
Drumkeen Retail Park Upper Galwally

If apples has spelt it wrong and he meant smyths toys ltd then that name is registered and is indeed Irish

Cash Converters

 

they will transax the cheque will will come up as stolen / forged.

 

I thought these scams worked by them letting the money go into your account, so you send the goods, then them recalling the cheque - leaving you with no money? Therefore the cheque has to clear?

 

me too

 

there is no such AIB branch at that address. Its a dodgy cheque. do not try to cash it. you'll have the old bill all over you, however I would go to the old bill and get it all checked out just to keep yourself in the clear.

I checked it on matchcode. hahahahahahaha.

My 1994 bank directory confirms AIB at 12 Old Jewry, London EC2R 8DP.
(I know the book qualifies as a historic document, but banks don't move around a lot and I haven't worked in one since then!)

 

galway!?!

galway is over here in ireland

and yes there is a smyths toy store, here anyway...
