I have contacted bidvest and they have confirmed the money was received in Hong Kong and Jonathon Aaron collected the money with a valid id.
cg11 did you say you have an active case against Jonathon Aaron with Hong Kong police, i think if we could provide them with the date, location and time that he collected the cash it would be helpful, if we are really lucky Bidvest may have photocopied his id. I have not had a reply to the mail i sent HK police so perhaps i could aid you with your investigation.

Most definitely.

Check your private messages, I've sent you the info for the
detective in charge.

I'm not expecting to get my money back, but I would be very
happy if they caught these scumbags!

The money order that I sent was also picked up in Hong Kong,
and I'm 100% sure that the guy that scammed all along was
in Nigeria. At least, their cell phone # is from Nigeria.

I'm sure it was just a mis-direction from Jonathan Aaron Mensah,
as he's the one collecting the funds.

ok, i have checked my messages but there are none.
By the way, i spoke to moneygram again and they say the office in HK would have photocopied the id, that would be a luck, even if it is fake he would not be able to use it again if we can get the local police onto it.
I think there are at least 2 of them involved, one in Nigeria (who is still pestering me 10 times a day for more money) and one in HK who collects the cash as no one in their right mind would send money to Nigeria. We can forget about getting anything done in Nigeria but HK may give us some revenge.

I'm not sure what they're up to now, but they're trying for me to give
them my PayPal account so they can return my money ( they claim )

I blocked them from all PayPal communications.

I'm sure they would try to scam my PayPal account somehow,
so just a heads up, don't fall for it.

These people are scammers, and they will suck you dry any way
they can. I'm actually baiting them now so I can get their I.P. address,
of where they are contacting us from. I know it's from Nigeria, but
when they send me an email, I'll have their I.P. address.

Any info will help I'm sure.

After talking to them further.

I have baited them to send me an email, and their I.P. address is:


I think that they have hi-jacked someone's PayPal account,
and want to suck it dry.

pbestsellers@yahoo.com Bestsellers: when u give me ur paypal account id
pbestsellers@yahoo.com Bestsellers: i will send money to u there
pbestsellers@yahoo.com Bestsellers: i may send u 3000usd and u can keep 1800usd and send me balance
pbestsellers@yahoo.com Bestsellers: and send me the balance ok

If this was their PayPal account, why would I need to send them the balance?

All along I have zero plans to receive this money, because as soon
as the person finds out, they will have the funds frozen, and PayPal
will immediately freeze my account, and I will be responsible for
these funds.

This is a heads up, be careful!

Fool me once, shame on you, fool me twice, shame on me.

This time, I've gotten their IP address, and baited them into thinking
I will give them my PayPal account.

IP address location & IP address info:
IP address [?]: 82.128.11.79
IP address country: flag Nigeria
IP address state: Lagos
IP address city: Lagos
IP latitude: 6.453100
IP longitude: 3.395800
ISP [?]: Multi-Links Telecommunications Limited
Organization: Multi-Links Telecommunications Limited
Local Time: 2007-08-22 19:12

If you want to bait them too, tell them you want to order more Ipod's,
and to send you an email with the information they need from you.

I bet it's the same scammers working with Jonathan Aaron Mensah.

Once you receive an email, check the headers and locate the IP,
and go to this site: http://www.ip-adress.com

Now, to report this to Yahoo to get their emails shut down,
as well as the authorities in charge, Nigeria won't do much,
but hopefully Hong Kong and your local authorities might.

He later admitted the PayPal account is "his clients", and he wants
to send me $3000, I can keep $1800, and send him the rest.

These guys think I'll fall for their tactics twice, some poor innocent soul
is going to lose a lot of money from their PayPal account as soon as
they get the PayPal ID.

be careful when they try this on you.

I'm so sorry that if i check his name in google before i won't loss 470 USD.
I have an experience with a person named Jonathan Mensah in alibaba.com this is his company link
http://www.alibaba.com/company/11185059.html
I talked to him by using trade Manager and
he send PI for a IBM T60 laptop. I have decision to pay
money to him 470 USD by transfer money by Western Union .
His detail to receive money is

Receiver's First Name...Jonathan
Receiver's Last Name...Mensah MENSAH
Address..31, hyde shephalltown stevenage
City...Kowloon
Country...Hongkong
Zipcode...852

so i send him the MTCN Code to get the money from Western Union.

When he receive the money 470 USD he contact us
and tell me to buy more laptop 2 unit.
If i not pay him more he will not send good for me
he say Fedex can not ship the good till i buy 3 units from him.
And if i buy him 3 units he will offer 1 Nokia N95 free for us.

My boss don't agree with him and i try to tell him send me the good 1 unit
before i transfered to him. So he try so much to let me transfer money to him more.

After that i try to find someone in Hong Kong to check his phone number which he
give to me it he tell me the wrong number and he tell me the wrong address too.

I tried to have his company certificate from him but he don't send it to me.

So that i sure that he is a scam. After that I search his name in google.com
and i found this link
I emailed to Hong Kong police but i don't know they can help me or not.

Sorry to hear about what happened to you as well,
these scammers are getting away with too much.

I sent you a PM for the detective in charge.

I can't believe that Western Union is still giving these guys money.

I filed a report with Western Union, and they said that after I filed
the report that they would not be able to receive money again
in the future.

Well, goes to show how reliable Western Union is, since they are still
sending this scammer money, knowing that he is a scammer.

Or, maybe the rep never filed the report to begin with!

Western Union is un-reliable, and one should NEVER use it as a form of
payment, since they clearly do not care who they're sending the money to,
and they don't have any sort of fraud protection in place.

Report this to Alibaba, and they will shut down the account.

Of course, they're just going to create new fake profiles.

We've learned the hard way NOT to buy from FREE members ever.

Only deal with Trust Pass members, since they've gone through
the verification process. Yes, their prices are more expensive,
since they are legit.

These scammers offer cheap prices, because they don't have the products
to begin with, and the buyer thinks they are getting a good deal.

These are definitely scams.

Any letter coming from Nigeria that promises you any sort of riches,
is definitely a scam!!!

Nigerians are the biggest scammers in the world.
