scamed as well
Hello, i have just returned from India where i met guys in Goa who
told me the same story about saving money when i bring the gems to europe i have read already in this coummunity.We send the gems with the post to the custom but i havent paid them. Custom called me the next day and said they want to see how i have paid. From this time on i was afraid of going into jail and organized all of the money cash.I have photos from two of them but no papers at all. They ripped me of for 10000?! I have seen articles on this side about that, also one wrote, that a couple went back and god the money back. Can you help me? Perhaps anybody has an idea what to do? The problem is that i have also acted a bit illegal. I want to tell everybody, these guys are really god. First we started a friendship for two days (they have been four guys) and then they started telling me, that i could earn a little money by working for them. They did a very goog job and nobody should think,that would never happen to me! Thats what i have always thought as well. They deffinetly work together with a guy from the postoffice and i really think, tehy are very well organized and there are a lot of them. I know this trick is very old, but not in this way. They first started talking about money when i was already afraid of the jail. Clever asses ![]() |
