Guest pd.ryder Posted March 3, 2005 Report Share Posted March 3, 2005 @kailes - was the sale initiated through this forum? There's a big thread on here somewhere to do with chasing down a serial scammer. I'll see if I can find it and post a link..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest kailes Posted March 3, 2005 Report Share Posted March 3, 2005 he is a registerd user on this site, just one post. says he has a c500. so it isn't a 5600 is the c500 the exact same as the 5600 or the older model? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest pd.ryder Posted March 3, 2005 Report Share Posted March 3, 2005 I think this is the thread. http://www.modaco.com/index.php?act=ST&f=10&t=111966 You're not alone :-" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest pd.ryder Posted March 3, 2005 Report Share Posted March 3, 2005 Same thing. The older model was the HTC Voyager, aka E200. C500 is the newest smartphone until the C550 hits the shelves sometime after May. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest tudor Posted March 3, 2005 Report Share Posted March 3, 2005 how do i determine the ip address from where he posted? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> If you use Outlook, right-click on a message and select Options. Look at the bottom for "Internet headers". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest tudor Posted March 3, 2005 Report Share Posted March 3, 2005 i never got an email from him, just a log of our conversation <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Maybe the admins on MoDaCo can help you with the IP from where he posted here - you said he posted once.

Guest chucky.egg Posted March 3, 2005 Report Share Posted March 3, 2005 Not wanting to sound harsh, but this is starting to sound like one fecked up purchase. You didn't know quite what you were buying, or who you were buying from, or how it would be shipped... you have to take some responsibility for protecting yourself from fraudsters. I know this is no help to you now, but it might help others: http://www.modaco.com/index.php?showtopic=202007 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Monolithix [MVP] Posted March 3, 2005 Report Share Posted March 3, 2005 Does the PO delivery pacells internationally? Even if they did, he'd have got a tracking number for it. Ask for that (its on the "other" slip they give you...) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest tudor Posted March 3, 2005 Report Share Posted March 3, 2005 Does the PO delivery pacells internationally? Even if they did, he'd have got a tracking number for it. Ask for that (its on the "other" slip they give you...) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> They give you a tracking number only if you ask for recorded delivery - that means a few quid more. Anyway, a seller's interest is to be able to prove that the buyer got the parcel, so he can sue for money in case of a non-paying buyer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest kailes Posted March 3, 2005 Report Share Posted March 3, 2005 in response to a previous post, i deserve to get taken on this one/ when he pm'd me yesterday i told him i i wasn't interested, but then he came back today. offered up pics, offered to email the receipt, even agreed to me not sending the balance until i receive the phone. it was after that when i started to put 3 and 3 together-picture wasn't a 5600, someone else noticed the blotted out receipt, all ofthat stuff. i filed a claim with paypal and he asked me why, and has run away since then. i have a feeling i wont' be hearing from him again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest tudor Posted March 4, 2005 Report Share Posted March 4, 2005 Hmmm.... interesting. I just had a look for the receipt from a parcel I've sent in February. It was international signed-for delivery and I got a tracking number for it. The interesting thing is that on the printed receipt the address is missing! I guess it's just how they work at the post office. The guy writes down the delivery address on the sticker-thing for recorded delivery (the one with bar-code labels), then asks you to pay the money, but he never types in the address on the computer. Just lazyness, I suppose. Here's a BAD QUALITY :oops: image of the receipt (sorry, I don't have a scanner at home, nor a digital camera, so I just used my C500): In any case, the white marks on yours are still dodgy...

Guest kailes Posted March 4, 2005 Report Share Posted March 4, 2005 that is interesting. thanks for offering it up. The guy responded yesterday and said I would owe him a bg public apology when i get the phone, which i will gladly offer up to all. One noe for you spv users. does the spv work with napster 2 go to? it was one of the main reasons i wanted my 5600 back. i have a dj business and am pulling a lot of music off of napster to go and want to be able to use it. i i can't, even if i get the phone from the guy it is going to go straight back. i know the c500 is the same phone, so I am assuming it will work, but anyone know for sure?

Guest tudor Posted March 4, 2005 Report Share Posted March 4, 2005 It is not QUITE the same phone. The hardware is identical, but SMT5600 has Windows Media Player 10, as opposed to SPV C500, which has 9. No idea about Napster though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest kailes Posted March 4, 2005 Report Share Posted March 4, 2005 its not going to work then. napster only works with 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
