I received an email yesterday offering to pay $80 dollars more than requested for a Android phone, the extra $80 was to cover shipping. The person Tim Howard stated he wanted to buy the phone for his son who was doing construction in West Africa. He requested I invoice him through pay pal, then he requested I send him the tracking number directly.
After researching the internet for scams with this person's name and address I was luckily able to locate the 2 links on this website, I did as the previous person on report #467524 did and emailed him the link, asking why his son had a Nigerian name if he was from another country. I then declined to ship the equipment and also have not received a response after being confronted. The "Tim Howard" was also advised to call the first day of being contacted, he never did that either. I see that on report # 290015 on this website there is a rebuttal, but that looks as though it was done by someone in Nigeria also.
There will be no rebuttal to my post, this guy is a scam and I hope others have the opportunity to see the repeat pattern and avoid being ripped off! Thank you complaint for making this site available!
