   MY QUESTION WASN'T ANSWERED HERE! WHAT SHOULD I DO?


  ANSWERS
• What are the escrow steps?
Both parties agree to the terms of transaction, which includes a description of the merchandise, sale price, number of days for the buyer's inspection period.
- Step 1 is completed after a transaction has been added to our database by one of the parties.
- Step 2 is completed after the transaction has been accepted by both parties.
- Step 3 is completed after the shipping and payment information has been updated.
We will provide the shipping information (tracking number) to the seller. The buyer submits a payment to Elite Cargo Express Inc in order to verify and process the funds before proceeding to the next step.
- Step 4 is completed after the buyer has received the goods / merchandise for inspection.
The buyer must decide to accept or return the merchandise received before the inspection period expires, or it will become non-returnable. If the buyer accepts the merchandise, Elite Cargo Express Inc pays the seller and the transaction goes to Step 5. Otherwise, the merchandise is sent back to the seller and, after verification, the money is returned to the buyer.
- Step 5 is completed after seller has received the funds.
• How is the buyer protected?
- In most of cases we are the ones that deliver the goods / merchandise.
- The seller isn't paid until the buyer accepts the merchandise, or the inspection period is over.
• How is the seller protected?
Elite Cargo Express Inc will ship the merchandise only after our Payment Dept. verifies the funds.
• How do I start a new transaction?
Once you have a Elite Cargo Express Inc account, after logging in, click on Start a Transaction icon in the Third Party Agency Tools section. The page that will load will guide you through the rest of the process.
• How does the buyer pay Elite Cargo Express Inc?
Elite Cargo Express Inc only accepts wire and money transfer, in order to reduce the risk of credit card fraud on the buyer's side. PayPal will be accepted soon.
• How does the seller get paid in the end?
The seller is paid only upon acceptation of the merchandise by the buyer. Funds are sent by check or wire transfer (in the case of the latter, an additional fee of $15 is deducted).
• Can I tell the password to my Elite Cargo Express Inc account to a friend so that he can use it?
- You may in no circumstance disclose your password to anyone.
- Do not enter your Elite Cargo Express Inc account password on any website.
Anyone that knows your user name and password can access all the features of your account and thus perform transactions in your name.
• Will Elite Cargo Express Inc disclose any private information I provide?
Elite Cargo Express Inc will not disclose any of the information you provide to any third party, excepting legal entities.
• Why is the escrow process safe?
Elite Cargo Express Inc acts as a secure middleman between the buyer and the seller.
• My question wasn't answered here, what should I do?
You should contact our Customer Support and fill out a support request form.
After you submit a support request, our support team will analyze it and provide the best solution to your problem via e-mail.

au-cartrader.com FRAUD

http://www.au-cartrader.com/  FAKE FRAUD SCAM

Au-cartrader.com a fake shipping and escrow company run by Romanian scammers, registered in Russia and hosted on a server in Russia.
The fake site is targeting car buyers in Australia.
We all know that there is nothing in real life as a shipping and escrow site.

These scammers created a domain named http://www.defenceairforces.com/, which forwards to the legitimate site http://www.airforce.gov.au/, to trick buyers into thinking they are dealing with a legitimate person in the Royal Australian Air Force.
The scammers are then instructing their intended victims to send payments via Western Union.

This site is being run by the same scammers involved in the previous clone site:
http://netscammers.blogspot.com/2010/11/london-autopaycom-fraud.html

http://whois.domaintools.com/au-cartrader.com
http://nic.ru/en/

http://whois.domaintools.com/defenceairforces.com
send complaints to:
abuse@nvhserver.com
Here is what the scammer is sending to his intended victims:

I've spoke to my superiors and I can take 4 days permission to bring the car but I don't want to take this permission and maybe come for nothing, I mean that there is a risk of coming to you and...you simply don't show up and I don't want to be embarrassed because there will not be a second chance for me to take a second permission. Carsales website recommends using escrow companies for distant transaction and I believe http://www.au-cartrader.com/ can do a very good job. I've read their terms which is suitable for both of us but first you must register at their website and then provide your user name so I can start the transaction. You can read how escrow works here: www.au-cartrader.com/howitworks.php .
I can give you one day to test the car at any inspection service you wish and only if you decide to keep it, they will release the money to me so, this is the safest way. I'm going to drive the car myself so...there will be no shipper or shipping company and the reason of using an escrow company is because I don't want to drive all the way just like that, I must be sure I'm coming for something because as you probably know is a very big distance . Let me know your decision because there is another person who wants to buy it and I need to know which way to go.

I'll bring the car with the log book and we can sign the papers right away

COMODO sites safe?

http://www.usaholidaybazaar.com/  FAKE FRAUD SCAM
http://www.onsaleplaygrounds.com/  FAKE FRAUD SCAM
http://www.elmamall.com/  FAKE FRAUD SCAM
(same scammers, different web host, fake COMODO emblem, no SSL )

2 fraud sites, same web host......
These 2 sites are the newest in a long line of fake stores using the Green Dot MoneyPak scam.
The fraud domain usaholidaybazaar.com actually has the COMODO secure authentication emblem on it.
(image below)
How can a scam site get an SSL certificate?
Are there no measures to prevent this?
Can any scammer using a stolen credit card get this service?
This situation leaves me feeling that I couldn't trust any site displaying the COMODO authentication emblem.
I have previous posts where scammers used COMODO for their fake sites too.
This same scammer:
http://netscammers.blogspot.com/2010/12/homeclearancefurniturecom-scam.html
and a different scammer:
http://netscammers.blogspot.com/2010/10/fv-groupnet-fraud.html

COMODO touts its browser plug-in, VerificationEngine, that supposedly helps people from getting scammed,  but it relies on sites in its own database. Will it tell you these fraud sites are legitimate?
http://www.comodo.com/home/internet-security/verification-engine.php
"VerificationEngine lets you easily verify that the site you're on can be trusted, essential to secure web-surfing."

Here are images of the fraud sites.
This site has the COMODO auithentication http://www.usaholidaybazaar.com/



 Lets hope no one is ripped off thinking they'll get playground equipment for their children in time for Christmas using http://www.onsaleplaygrounds.com/.


Both domains have been reported to the web host, who is usually good at removing fake sites from their servers.
Green Dot MoneyPak has a page on their site to help protect yourself from fraud:
https://www.moneypak.com/ProtectYourMoney.aspx
Please read it.
