I own a production company and am so happy that I did a google search before I started this transaction.

Apparently these people are using "gmail" email accounts now also, I've received similar emails from "yahoo" accounts and never even attempted to contact them because most of these SCAMS are run using "Yahoo' email accounts.

Anyway, I immediately got suspicious when "Michael Evans" requested "DVCAM TAPE" as most if not all companies doing productions today are using SD Memory Cards and not videotape. This should set off be a "HUGE" alarm, there are very few reputable production companies still using videotapes. Yes there are a few however, these companies are probably making low-end "PORN" videos. Please don't get upset with me and send me hate mail if your production company is still using videotapes, I'm saying this because I know for a fact that almost all high-end production firms use SD Memory Cards. The other alarm to this email  was the fact that they want to order so many videotapes, "200" tapes is a pretty large order and even when I was shooting on videotape I would never order more then "50-75" at a time because if shelf-life ...

Anyway, "BEWARE" these people are still attempting to "SCAM" good reputable businesses and we need to stay focused and aware of any attempt from companies we have never worked with before ...  

I emailed this person back and asked for contact information so I could "PROCESS" his order more quickly, lol, of course I haven't heard from him yet and probably never will ...

Again, "BEWARE" of anyone requesting something if you've never worked with or for them in the past and always, always attempt to get all their information before making any type of sale or purchase with these "SCAMMERS" ...

I got the same email however from the name John Titus.

It's scam. But how? I'm curious what they do to scam everyone? Do they just file a dispute and take their money back after ordering? What about charging them, then waiting till it clears. If it clears, send em the tapes. If it doesn't, no harm done, right?

I received the following mail 2years ago.?I run a post production in Japan.   I ordered 200 DVCAM at aJapanese tape company, and waited for their payment before I ship them.  Of course, they don't pay so I got stuck with the 200 DVCAM which were unreturnable.
Then today, I received the same mail. What kind of nerve this guy got!!!

I will like to know if you carry this item in stock or if you can special order them for me.

           Hi, Philip.

           We're not a tape stock company, we're a production company.

           Best bet is to try http://www.edgewise-media.com - they have the best prices I've seen. Been a loyal customer for years.

Then I wrote back:



Hi, Philip.

FYI, I just priced out the 94 minute tapes at Edgewise. With shipping, 185 tapes would cost $4,412.98. 370 tapes would cost $8,815.98.

If your offer is $500 for compensation on top of the cost of the tapes, I'll be happy to place the order and have it shipped to you, following receipt of your payment of $4912.98 for 185 or $9,315.98 for 370. Or I'll call to see if they can place a special order of the 184 minute tapes. You can send it via Chase Payments to my e-mail address. Then let me know your physical address and I will have it shipped to you.

Or you can save yourself $500 and contact Edgewise yourself.

Thanks & good luck,
Brian

I got the same email from Philip Jacobs.  This scam has been going on for years.  Obviously it works because one guy in this thread shipped them the tapes and probably got stuck paying for them.

The scammer Philip Jacobs (or Lisa Caca, Lyle etc.) Pretends to be from the US but is apparently a Nigerian scam operation.  I doubt ther is any way to go after them legally, but there was an interesting suggestion from a post two years ago, maybe I'll go fill a box with dog poop.

Apparently they are still attempting to scam:

My Repsonse:

Hi Philip,

May I ask where you got my information?  I ask because I am not a stock warehouse, I am a video production company.  You can find what you are looking for online at Markertek.com or possibly B&H Photo/Video.  


2nd Email:

Hello,

Can you special order the tapes for me while i compensate you with $500.

Thanks await to read from you.

Regards.
Philip


My Response:

http://www.markertek.com/Media-Tape-Stock/DVC ... .xhtml?PDV-184N

You can order for yourself here, and have them shipped directly to you.  No need to waste an additional $500 compensating me.  Markertek sells to the public.  You do not need any special permissions to order these.


Then I went on google and looked up the email address and found this site.  Glad I didn't fall for this.  Just seemed fishy to me.  Oh wait, but I don't need the compensation money anyway because last week I won the Nigerian Lottery AND found out that I have 6 dead relatives I've never heard of who left me in charge of their multi-million dollar estates!!!

Same as many above.. Philip Jacob wants 200 tapes.  First hint something was wrong is the time the e-mail was received. Middle of the night . So I responded by saying , before I do anything , where are the tapes going, and I need to verify if it is allowed to ship, by US export regulations ( you cannot ship to Cuba, north Korea, or  military/police of many countries without a state dept. permit, even just tapes)  the sender responded,  with an Idaho falls address.  That was it, I told them that they should order from B&H photo...

I just got this email today. I own a multimedia company but we carry no physical inventory.

It sounded a little fishy so I decided to google the sender's name (Lisa Caca) I'm so glad I did.

Turns out that it's a SCAM folks..... PLEASE BEWARE!

We just received this same scam only the name used was philip jacobs. What I don't understand is how the scammers benefit? Would they have actually come to pick up the tapes from our office and what... re-sold them?

The just happened to ma too.  I received the same email different names and addresses.  I run a video production company but carry no inventory.  I was told I would receive a $500 consultant fee if i took care of the ordering 190  of the tapes and shipping them.  I up-charged slightly for the tapes plus the fee and they accepted.  I shipped them to me first then signature req delivery to an address in Venice CA. i have proof of delivery signed. they paid with two cards, both approved based on the name, billing address provided, and zip code. i was under the assumption that my ipad CC app would not approve a card if it was bad, lost, or stolen., or had the wrong info inserted into the fields.  i was wrong.  I then received an order for 300 more and they paid again, but before i could place the order i realized i was being screwed...  yeah.  I thought "I'm up-charging them, plus a fee, how can they resell them at a profit?" At the end of the day i run a video company, and a consulting service, it seemed ok that they were asking me to find a product for them.    The idea of a charge back never even occurred to me.  I'm new at accepting CC's, and I just learned the hard way.  I cancelled the second shipment, but I feel like the FBI should go to where the first shipment went and sniff around, before i get all these charge-backs, and the tapes are long gone.  It's gonna screw me more than anyone else.   The cards all had the same number on them, except the last 4 and the CVN  same expiration date etc., and the CVN is always the last 3 of the card.  when i asked about this she said they are prepaid cards that are used for business transactions.  who makes the CVN the last 3 of the card?!?!  They all came from the Imperial Canadian Bank of Commerce, and apparently belong to other people, whose cards are all so close to each other, that it almost smells like an inside job.  how did my CC vendor approve a card with incorrect info in the name and address fields?!?  How could i talk to 3 detectives all of which said " hey your a business owner running an order for a customer, if they are stolen it won't come back on you. You can verify everyone."   Now i drain my account and call the FBI?  wth!
