It all started when I won two bids on the website BidToGet.Com. I orignally won two laptops for a very small amount of money (both well under $100.00 each, including $20.00 each for shipping). I contacted the seller "Camnemonik" and asked where he would like shipment of payment. He wanted it sent Western Union to him in london. He stated that he had several laptops for sale and wanted to sell them, so I "purchased" all of them he had to offer and sent him the money for the laptops and for shipping. Once he received payment, he wrote back stating that he "accidentally" shipped two additional laptops and demanded an additional $900.00 for them. He further stated that if I do not send the additional $900.00 them he will stop shipment of my purchase. That was in February. Since then, I have not received any package and he has continually tried to push these two laptops on me for two months, even after many emails stating I do not want them. He refuses to give a refund of money, stating he does not have it anymore. Now he refuses to return any emails regarding my purchases.
He also stated that he was a distributor for an electonic comapny here in the states. I have since called this company and found out that his is a fraud. I have also contacted the authorites, who have done nothing yet. I have also contacted Western Union who states that they are not equipped to handle his type of fraud and suggests to me that in the future NOT to send money though them for purchases.
