Fake Buyer Scam: Pedro Alvex

Posted on 17:04 by Unknown
Hi Kathleen,

I just had the same situation happen but I was contacted and requested for catering food. I “Googled” some of the info he gave me and it came up with your website.

It sounds exactly like the stories in your website so I thought I would add mine to alert people they have many scams!

I’m actually still in contact trying to get his visa number so I can alert Visa of this fraud.

As you may notice he is requesting to pick up catering at 11 am for an event in Ontario, …which he doesn’t even spell properly…

Thank you so much for having this web page!

Susana

Thanks for getting back to me .. I will be interested in the white chocolate cup cake so please advice on the cost for each cup cakes and let me know the total cost for it .

The event will be taken place on the 30th of this month, so kindly advice if you can have it ready by then ..

You don't need to worry as i have a shipper agent who will be coming over for the pick up of the order from you.

do you accept credit card as a mode of payment?

waiting to read back from you ...

Regards.
Pedro.

Since you don't have the white chocolate i will go for the vanilla chocolate and let it be regular size

I want you to please do me a favor as i have a shipper agent who will be coming over for the pick up of the cup cakes from your end but he made it clear to me that he doesn't have credit card facilities to run his charges through so i will urge you to add the sum of $1350 to the total cost of the cup cakes (which is $2572 ) and kindly run it on my credit card so as soon as you have it charge you can then go ahead and send the shipper agent fees to them as they have some other stuff to pick up for me in regards of the event .. Kindly get back to me so we can proceed.. I am hearing impaired so i wont be able to call you to give you the card but can only email my credit card

Will be waiting to read back from you ..

Pedro.

Hi Susana,

I am unable to down the file you sent to me cos i don't have a pdf application on my laptop so i will urge you to send the document to me using a wordpad so i can be able to fill the form and get back to you ..

I will be sending you my shipper agent details so as to know when he will be coming over for the pick up but the event start from 11: 00 am in the morning and i want the cup cakes to be here before that time.

I await the form so we can proceed..

Regards,
Pedro
