Electronics web site
Hi folks,
Has anyone heard of an internet trading company called hfwpiw.com .
They claim to deal with all goods electronic and cost half the price that we in the UK pay.
I, along with about another dozen people i know of from all over Europe, have ordered and paid for goods from this company and have not recieved any of them. When you log onto the web site there is a live chat window where the customer service manager will chat to you. That is until you ask questions regarding an order you have placed. You get no response from then on.
The monies are paid via Western Union to a bank in China where, they claim, the goods originate from.
Any knowledge of this company would be appreciated.
Thanks

Re: Electronics web site
They claim to be a American company that scource the goods direct from the manufactures in China but it looks like the only phone number on the site is in China.
We were put onto the site by a lad who actually ordered an iphone from them and recieved it, no probs.
I ordered a laptop and am having trouble getting them to respond. This is along with at least a dozen other people from across Europe.
I have put a request on the Far East forum to see if anyone can confirm the address and one of the persons that has contacted me with the same prob has a friend in China who is looking into it.

That site was only reg'd on 11/23/09?
Sore one
Do you know "this lad" personally or could he be a troll on another bargain message board you frequent?
Using 'The Google' with that website the only example seems to be some guy showing surprise that his iPhone was genuine. Probably the same fella.

Re: Electronics web site
That's a fun resource.
Looking at today's list and skipping to the final page, I found this block of registrations:
zynga-account-disabble-admin-warnig.com
zynga-account-warning-diseble.com
zynga-facebook-ccontinues.com
zynga-warning-scurity-guart.com
zynga-warning-security-guart.com
Looks like a big phish targeting Zynga's customers is in the offing.

Re: Electronics web site
I think I had better jump in here.
I have seen this website before under several different names.
What they do is really very sneaky, they will honour the first several 100 orders, therefore creating word of mouth from satisfied customers.
They then have no intentions of fulling the rest of the orders they get, they will eventually be shut down and restart again.

dellandhp.com I found on a Google.
But honestly -- if it asks for payment with Western Union, give it a wide berth. Credit card payments only for internet orders.
