Just found this thread and realised that I'd been conned.
The new identity for the conman is danegoh.hiong[at]gmail.com (HWZ marketplace ID: icedwhitechock) as I'm the new victim and just learnt a new lesson @ S$800 + S$18 money transfer fee from Western Union. Just to provide some details of the scam so that the search engine is able to index and more people is saved. I didn't start a new thread like "iPad Cheat" as it will take longer time for search engine to index and this may result in more people getting cheat. Below is the detail

My story:
Wanting to get a iPad 3G 64GB within my budget (S$800) and found the conman posting. Email him and the response is fast (within 1-2hrs). I had emailed quite few prospect but he is the only one that got back to me and with fast response. Initial negotiation being carry out. The story he told me is convincing (including Singish, live nearby you and can tell you there's a post office at a shopping centre near your house, etc) and the one that caught me most is that he told me that his mother is contacted with cancer and currently having chemotherapy and in need of money. Coincidentally, my father just passed away last week and he is contacted with cancer too. Therefore, out of sympathy, I decided to buy from him so that he can use the money to help his mother soon possible and I think it is ok to pay him first since he had sent over the faked delivery/billing receipt from Air21 and his identity card (me too think that the identity card is a fake one and he maybe a victim too so would not post his ID).
Before sending the money, I had done some research on the delivery/billing receipt from the Air21 and google for any fraud cases but I found none. This is probably due to this case is iPad not iPhone therefore the fraud info is unavailable for reference. I realised about it maybe a fraud case after I had transferred the money over and he sms me that he got it and will keep each other posted with email. But since then, he never reply. Today, the good is not delivered and I did another round of search using the phone number +63 9234655653 and found this thread. With this thread, I can confirm it is a fraud case.
Currently, he is still conning people in HWZ marketplace and his latest posting id is 50757
And I realised that I made a big mistake to alert him by posting a comment on the possibility that he is a conman and give him a chance to get away. But, the pro of this move is at least it serves as a warning for others. Hopefully, someone can track him down and save others. Though I'm a veteran in online purchase but sometimes things just happened. Hope this post can help. Cheers!
