Thanks Tony Johnson |
| Comment / Review | I initially got a form submission from Tony from our website where we sell apparel and gifts. He asked me if we shipped over seas, if we took credit card payment and if we would be willing to work with his logistics company PZ Logistics Inc. I responded yes to all of his questions, which is when I received the reply above. I then contacted the logistics company with the information he requested. They replied back to me with a quote and a request to wire transfer the payment to them. I then responded to Tony with our invoice for the products he was supposedly going to order. Both Tony and the PZ Logistics company were operating under the assumption that Tony would pay our company the total for both our products and the shipping, then we would pay the shipping company directly. I told him that we would not accept his payment for the shipping company we would only accept payment for our products and he could deal with them separately. After that he didn't reply for 3 days (he went from being in a rush to not responding). I kept bothering him, because I knew it was a scam. He then replied back saying that the shipping company doesn't accept credit cards and that is the only form of payment he had (for reference he was ordering almost $10,000 worth of products from us and the shipping quote was close to $5,000). Basically his scam is that he "pays" your company for shipping and the products. Your company then pays his shipping company cash through a wire transfer. Since it's a "rush" job you receive his credit card payment and then transfer cash to the shipping company, then after a few days his credit card payment comes up as a fraud so you never really get any of that money but you have already paid $5,000 in cash to him.

Same guy is trying to rip me off at the moment. I pay for the shipping and then his credit card payment bounces. So far he has given me 4 different lots of card details, two of which have not worked at all. The other two were only good for $5000. I wonder where the Credit Cards are coming from? He is using the same address as above, but is calling himself John Paul-must be after the Pope who has recently visited Fiji?
His communications have been remarkably similar to the three attachments here.

I have one from williamjoshsupplies@gmail.com asking me to do exactly the same thing 11/3/2020. They don't care how much time goes in to these quotes and the effect on small business. They have asked I email there shippers Euromaritimeshippingservice@gmail.com (a gmail account!) to get the shipping prices.

Refused to send goods and pay his "shipping agent". My bank has just debited my account for his "payment". Turns out that the card details were fraudently used from a card issued in the USA. So may be an international scam. Avoid this organisation at all costs.

"Richard Malara" with "Lelas Store & Son Supply" emailed the company I work for today, so the scam is alive and unwell.
"Is shipping to Belize possible? If yes. Let me know the Credit Card type you do accept (MasterCard or Visa Card). Or a certified check? Do you also accept a freight forwarder to handle the pickup and the shipping from your warehouse to our doorstep? Can you send me your wholesale price sheet to view your products? Also what is the best phone number to reach out to you? So we can discuss better."
