Ebay Scammers and not only...
Well, after many requests we've got, me and Ron have decided to make a black list of those who scam people on ebay and off ebay, selling illegal items, bootlegs and fake signed items.
Of course, we will take into consideration those with whom we and our closest friends had personal bad experiences or those who are still selling those bad items on ebay.
We can't consider personal misunderstanding or personal jealousies between a seller and a buyer because this is not our aim here and we're not here to judge anyone without knowing him/her before.
We contacted Ebay and The Michael Jackson's Estate various times but quite frankly, very rarely we saw their interventions and only a few fake items were removed.
So we came to the conclusion that we must defend ourselves against scammers and we hope this list will help you a little bit not to waste your money.
We suggest you all as first rule NOT TO SEND CASH BY MONEY GRAM, WESTERN UNION or through bank wiring to anybody on and especially off ebay , unless you know that person since years or he/she is a personal trustworthy friend or dealer.
Pay Pal payments, for how much I don't like them neither, are more protected in a kind of way, but not always, because if a seller is a scammer, he/she will close the PP account after receiving your money and you're defrauded ! Pay Pal won't ever give your money back as it happened to me twice, and I know this happened to some other people I know too.
HERE'S THE LIST OF THOSE WHO SCAM BUYERS AND SELL FAKE ITEMS OR NOT SHIP THEM AT ALL:
1. brazilcds (user on Ebay) this seller opened 3-4 accounts that were suspended but he always finds a way to be there again. He sells fake acetates NEVER PRODUCED BY SONY BRAZIL but they're hand made by him. Brazil usually doesn't do promo 'acetates' . So Watch Out !!!
2. popmusic3 (user on Ebay) This seller lists FAKE BOOTLEGS PROMO: DANGEROUS SOUVENIR PROMO MALAYSIAN CD, TASTE OF INVINCIBLE US PROMO CD, DANGEROUS PEPSI JAPAN PROMO CD and they are ALL HAND-MADE AND FAKE!!! She has also a blog so be careful of not being trapped here too:

3. raritiesbrazil (user on Ebay) Another Brazilian scammer who sold fake brazilian Sony 'acetate' cds of Hold my Hand, Hollywood Tonight, Thriller etc.. ALL FAKE AND HAND MADE BY THIS SELLER OR WHO KNOWS...
4. michaelthekingforever (Ebay user) Please, be CAREFUL OF THIS SCAMMER! She opened many many accounts ( we know at least 10 so far) but the newest one is the one above. She is from Portugal and is called Maria or Sandra ; she continuosly sells the same items, claiming she needs money for her sick daugther. Always the same bs to scam people and push them to send bank wiring. Many of our friends have been ripped off by this person. We reported her to the Estate, Ebay etc.. but they didn't do anything so far, so we need to open our eyes and ears very well !
5. jayster321 (Ebay User) He is from Canada. According to 3 reliable friends on our group, this guy screwed up them and many other people,
selling fake worn items, awards, and signed items. sending them also false Certificates of Authenticity.
6 jackyomg (Ebay user) he sells and claims he has Signature Series Promo CD, Heal The World Promo CD from Japan, Black & White Japanese Promo CD , Dangerous Promo Japan CD and other rare ones, but he presumably NEVER sent anything to some members of our Facebook group and many lost their money as they sent it by Western Union or Money Gram. His name is Sivanathan
7.Lisa from the UK This blonde woman, who appears always semi-naked on Facebook and who's probably a fake identity there too, has presumably cheated many members of our group, regarding MJ Billie Jean Hot Toys Doll, Opus , Liberian Girl Star Mobile pack and other rare records. She Never sends the items paid and disappears after a while. So be careful not to send her money in any case. Neither with Pay Pal.
8. downlawn (Ebay user) This person sells ONLY fake awards. He's making money for something that it's Not RIIA nor official awards, so be careful of not bidding nor buying his awards if you search for the real ones.
PLEASE WATCH OUT AND REPORT ALL SCAMMERS TO US, EBAY, The MJ Estate and Police of your area (even FBI for internet frauds, there's a link on official FBI site) IF AND WHEN THEY CONTACT YOU AND TRY TO STEAL YOUR MONEY.
