Greetings, dear guests!
An article on fraud, like everything elsereposted and beautifully worked out! I have never been fooled by such bases, but here on level ground I almost laid out a quarter!
So: as I wrote in my last article, I am at the end of November 2019. completed the installation of heating in the ceiling on wooden beams, and proceeded to insulation, sound insulation and subfloor flooring.
(If interested, my article on heating installation HERE)
It happened a few weeks ago, on Saturday - 12.21.19.
I always analyze the pricing policy for sound and heat insulation on the Internet (probably, like the vast majority), after which by choosing certain warehouses or shops - I call or come, and, accordingly, I find a lower price and do order. Sometimes on partial prepayment - if I'm sure, sometimes on delivery! But this incident stunned me ...
On all the well-known online trading platform for placing ads, I find a store with a good price for insulation, before that already took in it repeatedly. The mobile phone of the manager is indicated.
I called, the employee confirms everything to me, and asks to pay 1000 rubles. on his cardat the expense of delivery and for its own booking, and return for the goods after the fact, he says! (This is a common practice with us, the more the point is checked, the manager negotiates and books delivery himself).
On this they decided, I transferred money for delivery to him and I'm waiting for the call. Two hours pass - he does not ring. To exclude scammers, I call the store myself (exactly to the store). I am confirmed by the date and time of delivery. I calmed down and wait!
On the delivery date, a call from the manager: "You are at home? The driver is leaving for you! ", I say: "Yes, I'm waiting for you!"
Then, a couple of minutes later, he calls again and says: "The driver made a mistake - forgot the cash register, accept the goods without a receipt?"
I say, - Well, if so, well, let it be without a check (do not return the driver back).
A couple of minutes, and again a call from him: "You know, the driver didn’t take the terminal either (everything was in one package, he completely forgot), but he doesn’t want to travel with cash all day, because he still has 4 deliveries around the city. Please transfer money to me, as well as for delivery, to the same card"
I answer that there is no money on the card, and upon arrival the driver will have to wait until I leave - I'll put it down. If he waits, I will transfer it to the card without questions, but again I emphasize that after get and check product!
Here, of course, some doubts crept in. But at the same time, how can anything go wrong if everything is under my control? With the store - there is contact, with the driver - we will also find a common language on the spot. I'll unload and pay. Chairs in the morning - money in the evening)))
While the goods were on the way, this manager is in anxiety, he called me 5 times (incomprehensible fuss).
The carrier arrives, we unload the goods, I recount everything according to the invoice. Corresponds to the fact. I call the manager (the driver is nearby), I say that I have received everything - and now I will send the money!
My manager: "Let's go faster, we don't have time to reach other clients", and urges... Doesn't give a word to insert ...
The driver simultaneously calls the store to confirm delivery:Yul, I threw out the goods, take the money 26,200 rubles, I’m waiting for a message about the receipt and go on
I'm asking:Why Julia?
Driver: Who did you communicate with when ordering?
I say:with Maxim.
Driver:He was transferred to another department, how did you get to him? and gives me the card details for payment (other details).
Here I am already starting to guess that something is definitely wrong, so I take the paper with the details and, to make sure, I ask the driver to dial the Maxim he knows.
The perplexed driver, not understanding the situation, dials Maxim's phone and gives me his handset! While the call to Maxim is in progress, my mobile phone vibrates in my pocket, I look, this same Maxim calls me, apparently wants to know why I have not been translating for so long! And Maxim also picks up the phone on the driver's phone!
Here's a trash!!! Words cannot convey, two phones in hand, two Maxims on the line. I am furious, I already 100% understand what's what, I take his phone back and start covering the breeder with a three-story mat !!!
The ending is funny))) He made an order for himself, and on my behalf communicated with the driver, and with me - on behalf of the store manager - Maxim. Really such schemes of kidalov pass??? Probably yes, if the scheme exists!
What I understood for myself and how you can expose from the very beginning:
- the person rushes you (for no adequate reason),
- hints a lot not to communicate with acting not from him persons (in my case - with a driver),
- withdraws for payment to the card in different ways,
- constantly monitors your mood and situation (calls often).
Good luck and good to everyone!
