I don't think we need any other proof, so please beware before you log on to this complete sham and fraud of a website. No wonder they say buyer beware.

Nokiaind now on Alibaba - Fraud again?

Check out Nokiaind on Alibaba.com and note his name as Mr. Jhon Iron and his address as "Avenue 23, New York, New York, United States".

Is he the same Nokiaind.com that I had highlighted earlier here in Feb-06 and earlier in Dec-05 ?

You will notice in the comments on both blogs that people have actually been duped by nokiaind.com. which is currently on this site. And he's still at it - notice how he has kept bookings open from 18th March 2006 to 24th March 2006.

Beware guys, this is a fraud. A big one.

Beware - Nokiaind is back !

I don't believe this. Check out http://www.nokiaind.net.previewyoursite.com/. Yes, he's back. The audacity of this thief is amazing. Refer my earlier blog, where I'd pasted my mail interaction with this random guy. Some unlucky people fell for this trick and landed up losing their money.

There's also a chat thread on the Reliance Mobile website where some more enthu guys have exposed this fraud and even have mails from ICICI Bank saying that the website is a fraud.

In fact after his domain name expired our villain has got himself a new URL (note the "previewyoursite.com" in his address)

The Police should put this thief behind bars. Probably even Nokia, ICICI Bank, Deutsche Bank, etc should carry some kinda warning on their website about this guy.
