What's that...?Originally posted by the Bear:try Opera Browser.. it really is faster!
Ever occur to you that you might have been conned by your friend? How close a 'friend' is this person to you...? Does he intend to return you the money then...? Have him report the matter to the police, or I'll suggest you report him to the police?Originally posted by reallyneedurhelp:i sent a sum of $150 to my friend through POSB's funds transfer as he told me he could help me get a mobile phone of my choice but he lacked cash.
After that... he told me that he had been conned and that the phone he had bought was actually a dummy set.
He refused to go to the police quoting that nobody will believe him as he had tattoos all over his right arm.
Can i do anything about this?
Please help!

well.. i went to the police yesterday night..Originally posted by Devil1976:Ever occur to you that you might have been conned by your friend? How close a 'friend' is this person to you...?

How he intend to settle the matter? You mean he never check the HP when he bought it...? Did he tell you where he'd bought it and the details?
nope.. u cant sue him. yup, tis is under civil law. he told u abt e deal, u makes e offer to buy e fone, n he accepts e offer. so he is not liable for ur losses. i tink u cant do anything unless u can settle with him urself...Originally posted by reallyneedurhelp:is this a civil law? and if i want something to be done.. i have to fork out money for a lawyer?
or.. anything that i can do? anybody know?
and is it true that if we do lodge a police report together
and i tell the police that my friend got cheated and he got a wrong set.. the police wont do anything at all?
time to call in the cops, they should investigate and bust their ring and you get compensated.Originally posted by reallyneedurhelp:i sent a sum of $150 to my friend through POSB's funds transfer as he told me he could help me get a mobile phone of my choice but he lacked cash.

Just a rather unrelated question. Are you a local?Originally posted by reallyneedurhelp:well.. i went to the police yesterday night..
and today... he passed me a phone... t108 that is.. its has been locked by its operator (which means i cannot use it anywhere outside China) and the phone is in no working condition.
yea... he said he was in a hurry so he never check e phone properly... and he bought it frm these 2 strangers thru the net.
i told him i wldnt mind if we split the loses.. but he said that he is totally broke now and will only do so until he gets a job.. and even quoted that i have 4 jobs and shld be earning enough..
i really feel very lost. he did get cheated. but its my money..
