A little help?! thanks

Post by Ultimate Dj »

Hey Guys,
I"m looking to get a Mac Book Pro. and I found this place that has them for an amazing price. I just don't know if their reliable or legit.
http://www.robynenterpriseslimited.page.tl/

I chatted with them on Yahoo Messenger and they seemed normal. The also seemed very pushy for my full name and address.
What harm can they do if I give them that?
Any help would be great!!! :D thanks

Looks like a proper dodgy site. The blurb is meaningless.

I could name dozens of crooked things on that site that would send me running.

Don't do it.

If you want a cheap Mac just buy one from the generation before, i.e. one that isn't currently listed on the Apple Store. Those get heavily discounted. Amazon is one source I've used for that.

You've gotta ask yourself why they are asking for your address. They don't need it merely for enquiries. It's really odd that they're even asking for it.

Honestly, that site is seriously dodgy. There are countless things I can see on there that put up the red warning flags. Steer well clear!

It's better to pay a couple of hundred dollars more for peace of mind and have REAL product support, than have it all robbed from you by some scummy git that disappears off the face of the planet as soon as they have your cash.

It's not even a proper website. It's hosted on mass anonymous free servers. The actual parent site is http://page.tl , which is an East Timor (Indonesia) domain.

You can't find who Robynenterpriseslimited are, their address, etc. They're not accountable and they can erase their "site" at a moments notice and you'll have absolutely no comeback.
Daz also mentioned it, but Western Union is PRIMARILY used by scammers. There's no paper trail, so you're effectively giving them cash in hand, with no comeback.

Their business strategies on that site are warped (they're certainly not business people, that's for sure!), they also offer only 30 days warranty :shock: , they leave no contact details (address, email, telephone numbers, etc.), their English communication is extremely poor, their website is designed by a pre-school infant and is NOT indicative of a professional business that has been running since 1999, there's only one person who's signed the guestbook (in the last 10 years), their child-like fanciful 'blurb' carries no substance whatsoever, and they say things like " What are you waiting for.why not make your first purchase others of us today, and enjoy exceptional service with joy and happiness." and "We sincerely hope you enjoy shopping in the United States, and we pray that God enriches the pockets you have to make their own orders for the company."

They're PRAYING for you to line their pockets!

It's all hot air, and designed (albeit extremely badly) to snare unsuspecting victims.

They are almost certainly scammers.

Looks like a very badly produced web site to me... not conducive of someone who is trying to sell professional technology

thanks guys! :D
I figured it was a scam but I thought that maybe.....it wasn't? He told me he wasn't scamming me and that it was legit! :lol: :D
You know, you would think that all the scammers out there would finally catch on TO LEARN DECENT ENGLISH. or at least have someone translate it for them.
Okay what about the Emails I recieve Titled "Dearest Beloved" about a girl that needs help, whos father just perished and she needs to transfer over 5 million dollars to the Usa to keep it and she wants my help. Plus I can keep some of it!!! also shes in like Zimbabwe or something. thats legit right?! :lol: :D :)

so any one have a Mac for sale that aren't scams?! hehe :D

THAT'S legit. I should know. I've been helping MR. MGUNDA NAWARI, an ex high official from Sudan, transfer funds for much the same purpose. There were a couple of issues initially, but the money I sent smoothed those over - and you know, there's always something. Now that I've given him my bank account number and PIN, I'm sure that the final transfer will occur within the next several days and soon my account will be FILLED with money. He even insisted that I put several thousand dollars in the account first, so that it looks legitimate to auditors; it's good to be working with someone who really knows the ropes.

Ooh, I just got another email from him. Looks like there's a few bank transfer fees I need to cover. Whoohoo! I'm going to be RICH...

It turns out that MR. MGUNDA NAWARI is informing me of a relative of mine who died in a plane crash in the congo 5 years ago and they have managed to trace me and with some urgency now want to transfer $18 Million USD to me as this was left by my late relative.....

I'm toying with the idea of contacting him cause I could really do with $18 Million right now but something is bugging me......!!!

:P
