Hi ,

I bought an Xbox 360 for Rs.19990, Through my credit card from :
Planet M,
DLF city Centre,MG Road, Gurgaon 122002
When i was making the purchase i was told that this item can be bought on 0% intrest and the amount shall be converted into 6 Monthly installments if i make the purchase through Credit card .
I did so , However my purchase was never convereted in EMI as the bank(HDFC) stated that the same needs to be done by the Merchant ,I contacted Mr. Sanjay , who kept assuring me that it shall be done .The same did not happen and Mr. Sanjay who is the retail manager of that store fooled me all throught this time .

I want an action to be taken against him and would also like to return the product .

Please suggest .

Regards,
Rahul sharma

    Toshiba UK — Got a text message from Toshiba abt a prize...

    Hi,

    I first recieved a text message on my mobile phone no:[protected] saying that I have won a Toshiba Sattelite Pro Laptop along with $10, 000 according to the Toshiba Laptop Promo 2008 Asia and Europe region. I initially believed in whatever I was told and in the process they have also asked for Courier Charges worth 19, 750 rupees which I had paid after which I was given the dispatch no. and everything saying that the package has been dispatched. I was recieving mails untill I was told about a tax issue according to which I'll have to pay 30% of the value of the gift, however they asked for Rs 32, 500 and now I don't know whether to pay the tax or not to pay the same...
    I am told that I would get back my courier charges if I don''t want to pay the tax.
    I also went to Delhi where the package was supposedly kept at the customs strong room but could not find anything as they were asking for the airway billno. for the package which none of the persons with whom I am in touch with could provide.
    I therefore strongly think that all this is a scam.
    In this entire process I think I have lost the money I have given..
    Pls help...and pls guide me as to how to claim my money back...
    I think you should pay the tax or should go to cyber crime branch and complaint.
    I RECEIVED THE SAME THING SAYING I WON 500, 000GBP IF I SEND THEM 540GBP TO PAY FOR THE COURIER DELIVERY OF THE PRIZE.

    IS THIS FRAUD?

    Look familiar? This is a scam guys. Don't you think that if you won such a large amount of money they would provide a phone number for you to call them directly or at least they would call you? Do you ever remember entering such a contest? And who in their right mind gives away such a large amount of money for a contest..Unless it's some tv show. I'm sorry to break it to you, but you're not filthy rich, and neither am I. If your really want something more concrete to back this up with, contact Microsoft directly..I tried because I wanted them to be aware of this but I couldn't find a way to call them, or email them...Strange.
    RECIEVED THE SAME EXACT MESSAGE - ITS A SCAM!!!
    i got the msg but this time the prize is $600, 000.00
    but i gave them my id so u guys think its a problem for me?
    pls let me know.
    I think the cyber branch of Interpol should make an enquiry and ascertain facts .
    If scam should arrest criminals and publish in yahoo website .

    Hi Dolly,

    Do not bother to give your information details to them. By far, this people appear to be scammers. I recieved a mail asking for my details after winning 500000 GBP. These scoundrels use your details to set up a false identity with the credit scoring agencies like Equifax and make credit frauds. However, your information will be erased from the agencies in three months although these scoundrels might hold your information for further attempts thereby your credit history will be lingering down and you may wonder why everybody else around you is getting good credit scores and not you.

    In short, ignore them or class them as scam or report them to any authorities you may know

    I, too, received this FRAUDULENT e-mail! As soon as I read the e-mail, I immediately went to the British Pounds converter to see "how much I won". Then I started to think, "If it seems too good to be true, it usually is." I went back over the e-mail and noticed several spelling and grammatical errors in the e-mail. My assumption was that if these people are smart enought to work for Microsoft at the capacity they are claiming, they should also be smart enough to put a sentence together correctly, use proper grammer and use the correct spelling of words. Thank God I didn't react to my greed and give these scammers what they were looking for...MY INFORMATION. You CANNOT trust anyone on the internet! People are sick and demented and have no morals, values, principles or scrupels; they think nothing of taking everything away from you, everything you've worked hard for. Unfortunately, these scammers attempt to stimulate peoples desires for instant riches and use that to attain their own. Please make sure you check everything out that seems like a fantastic opportunity, promises you the moon and asks for your personal information; if you don't, you could end up being another statistic.
    it´s beeing sent to many people you would never win a money price and have to "buy it free" cause it is stuck somewhere :)
    in my case i won 975, 000 pound through text message in my mobile number.same case with you people but the different was you win through email...now i know its a scam...thanks pipsss
    Hi there,

    Sincerely,

    We have also recently received a notification from Microsoft, regarding winnings of 250 000 Pounds, and a Toshiba Laptop. But we have 3 options to choose our winning prize collection in London, via courier and also by Transfer into a bank account. It all seems so convincing. Now I am really horrified how this is allowed to happen and that Microsoft doesn't make a statement globally that it is not associated with anything like this. I would have believed this as they make it look all very official. Have any other South Africans had the same scam?
    what's dis ? i thing this is all rubbish to make fool . so i kindly request to this kind of stupid games plz don't play with our intutions ...because i have got the same message that yahoo/msn email contest so ...plz please plz don't do that!!!
    Anche io proprio due giorni fà ho ricevutola stessa mail...sono preoccupata...credo che sia una vera truffa a livello internazionale e non capisco come sia possibile che se si protrae da così tanti anni, nessuno stia facendo nulla per salvaguardare noi tutti dopo le tante segnalazioni...a partire da MICROSOFT...per favore fate qualcosa!! molti potrebbero cadere in questa colossale trappola!!

    I am disappointed at your show of weakness towards handling such a serious and life changing issue, the team that was set to give out this award bacnk draft which you should consider as an opportunity of a lifetime, for got to give me take off grant to send your award back draft to you in your country, i am only doing this to hlpe you get your draft, and you are not puting in your best, the only thing you can do right now is eider you pay for the courier fee of two types which is $546.220 for the EXECUTIVE PLUS DELIVERY (24HRS) or $304.888 SECOND CLASS DELIVERY ( 2 working days) or you withdraw yourself as the beneficiary of this funds.
    you decided or you side you can to come to our office to collect you back draft, which no body could have ask you to pay for any thing and now you can not pay for the courier fee, you don't expect me to use my own money to do this for you, the only way i can be of help to you now is to assist you with $145 in any of the courier fee you are paying that is the only help you can get from me right now.


    If i had known before now that you were not capable to handle this $500, 000, 00 dollars of microsoft end of year award, i would have told them not to endorse yourname as the beneficiary of this funds.

    Well since you have personally decided to withdraw yourself from this transaction just because you are required to make an inevitable financial commitment to enable you complete the transaction, i will not force you into accepting this gift from us.

    I have decided to prepare a letter of "disclaimer and non-interest" which will be endorsed by you as evidence that you have without any duress or pressure declined from being the beneficiary of the (microsoft end of year award bacnk draft)Hence i can go ahead and do whatever i deem right with the funds.

    I give you just this last chance to own up to responsibility and face this challenge squarely and as a man of courage so that we can have this funds transferred to you before it gets confiscated by the Government and sent to the reservve treasury as unclaimed inheritance.

    There is no time to waste if you do not act as expected within a few days i will go ahead and prepare the disclaimer and non interest letter afterwards i will make arrangements to get another partner to stand in as the next of kin to the beneficiary of your microsoft end of year award bacnk draft of$500, 000, 00, who will not play with this opportunity rather will be willing and ready to do whatever it takes to have this money out of here.

    Sincerely,
    Mr.Bright Sampson.

    I WROTE (FINAL)

    Dear Mr Sampson,
    You are not as bright as your name appears to be! Every scam of yours is listed in the internet and all the correspondence between you and me will also be posted to let people know your company, which is definitely not the Microsoft Corporation, is still scamming people. I hereby donate my draft to you, which you may eat, and, after it is digested and passes out from your body, have a look at it to remind you of the material you are made of!
    Henceforth all communication from you will be treated as spam.
    Signed... wjm.
    Recently I also got this mail from Microsoft stating that I had won 750000 pounds. I submitted my details and they replied me stating the mode of getting the cheque, either through bank or courier services. Is fishy because those people from the award team email address are not from Microsoft, is another company etc. I will put on hold till I hear from these people again.
    Dear Sir,
    i have received a messege from "TM-FB.WIN" that congrats your mobile phone has won 500000 GBP in the microsoft award intlmobile draw uk.
    tell me this is true or any fraud

    I have also just received an email claiming to be one of 100 inline users to win something if I reply with al my personal details. I was aware that this is a scam due to the email addresses used to contact me. Since when does Microsoft use an email addy like. "[protected]@8u8.com " ? That immediately drew my attention as being bogus and caused my search to end up here. Please guys, be aware of these scams out there trying to defraud us. And the best thing we can do as victims/ almost victims is to warn and educate others out there who are vulnerable and excited about winning something just to be scammed.
    Let this be a warning to all you mo-fo's out there who are trying to scam us- There is a WORLD WIDE WEB of info out there and YOU will NOT always get away with this!!! Leave us alone and get REAL jobs!!
    I got the same e-mail about an endowment fund reward. In my case, I had apparently won $500, 000. I checked up on the courier company that they mentioned in the letter, and it was an actual company, which cought me a little off guard, since I suspeced it was a scam. Now, I don't really know what to do. Anyone got any ideas?
    I think the cyber branch of Interpol should make an enquiry and ascertain facts .
    If scam should arrest criminals and publish in yahoo website .
    I GOT A SAME E-MAIL I WON £500, 000.00 GBP Five Hundred Thousand Great British Pounds.
    AND THEY SEND MY SAME SERIAL NUMBER. SO WHAT CONCLUSION DID YOU GUYS GET TO? IS THIS FRAUD?
    hey, i've got the same e-mail, anyone here can say me if ths is really truth or just one more of those scams?
    its very interesting ;-)) i thank you all ;) xx

    i won a sweepstakeslottery from microsoft corporation 20 craven park harlesdene london, my name is dalafaka opuogulaya, the name of the agent is mr william shunt, scott morgan, he refuse to give me the money because i dont have 500$, please make him take the 500$ from that money and give any amount from 600, ooopounds, total money won was 750, 000 pounds, i sent him the information but he refuse answering me, i have lost his contact because yahoo erased my account, i have a new acct now, [protected]@yahoo.com
    I have recieved two emails in my account that one said it was a business proposal from some person, Harold Sewell, claiming to be an attorney who had someon close to him die in a crash(googled it), and had milliions of dollars that was at stake in a bank. He was looking for the person who had a similar last name, and thought to inform me with my help, he could make me a millionaire if I paid him 60% and I would recive 40%. There was another from a "woman" who's name was Celina Osei, who had a similar story. I chose to ignore the emails. Then I recive this one that was conviently located in the UK along with the other two. IT"S ALL A SCAM. GOOGLE the Business proposal from Suzanne Baxter or Harold Sewell, and then do the same for Celina Osei. This should help shed the light on if it's coincidence or not. I would not fall for it. But I would have to agree, they are getting pretty smart.

              I don`t know about this matter It`s true or not.
              now what i do?
              You guys, read the title above the website. What does it say? "Fraud Lottery & Spam Mail and took personal identification data with address i.e. PassPort Copy". It is Fraud! That means if you give money, they will run away! And by the way, this is not an organization, its individuals who do these tricks and you can't track them. Don't pay to scams like that. There is nothing we can't do in the internet. People have to be careful when giving personal information or money!

                    FROM: MICROSOFT AWARD COMPANY, UK,
                    DESTINATION: INDIA .

                    Call me On This Line Tel: [protected]




                    We have just received the following information from the British Inland Revenue Office. Attached to this email is a copy of the fax relay received from the Tax official Mr. Stewart Whitcomb with respect to the temporary delay in the delivery of your parcel to your address.

                    If I may explain more clearly:The British Inland Revenue Commission here in the U.K implemented strict laws to check the earnings per head of individuals in a view to avoid tax evasion. During a normal security routine check at the Ports facility, the British Inland Revenue officials assigned to check all monetary related transactions detected the content of your parcel at the final point of clearance, after a thorough scrutiny and verification, their investigation revealed that the cheque contained in your parcel is from a legitimate source and also Bonded (Insured).

                    We were also informed that taxes had not been settled on the cheque as such it will remain in the British Government's custody until the associated taxes are received on this cheque since its a dividend acquired within the shores of the United Kingdom, and failure to comply as required will lead to confiscation of your parcel and possible legal charges against us for aiding in an attempt to evade UK Tax Laws.

                    It is really very unfortunate that things have turned out this way. I apologize on behalf of this organization. We are working very hard to rectify this anomaly and restore normalcy. In view of this, the delivery of your parcel will be a little delayed, until the necessary tax laws are adhered to by the intended beneficiary of the cheque contained therein. We advise you contact your fiduciary agent Dr.FrankmRoyala Berese and arrange for these fees to be made available for the release of your parcel.

                    I know this is a lot of money but its imperative that we proceed in this manner as failure to do so will amount to breaching the U.K Tax laws which makes you liable for tax evasion. Please revert to us once you are ready to settle the tax charges at your earliest convenience as this will expedite the release of your parcel.

                    You are expected to revert to us in this regards within the next 24 hours.

                    We deliver across the globe

If you hover your mouse in this link (dont click) you can see another website displayed in the taskbar.

                      Just ignore.

                              Dear Sir
                              About three weeks ago I received and 'E' mail which said that I had won wonderful gifts from Microsoft on Line Promotion. They send to parcel the APX Courier services which then send me an 'E'mail and said that I had to pay the delivery fees which is $507. I want to know if this messages was a scams / fraud story or is this real. You have more knowledge than I have. I would like feedback as soon as possible.
                              If it is true I will pay but I am not paying fir scams. The courier services do not have bank accounts.

                              I have also been approached by APX courier- this time intimating that they are going to send a draft of about 900, 000 pounds to me- the modus opperandi being just the same. They have said that the only way to receive the prize money is by paying them their charges and so called income tax in advance.Should I pay up or will someone take up the matter with UK police. I can send further details if you reply to me
