Thanks Tony! Yes I was swindled a whopping $800 by that SOB!!! I gave Ham info and he played with that SOB!!!

There are more than one of such SOB! So all of you better be very very careful when buying from amazon.com and ebay too! Especially amazon, these SOBs actually are quite pro in their job for they hacked into amazon's system even if you use "Contact Seller" button in amazon.com's site!

I used that button and my email was sent to him! How that happened, I really had no idea! I was STUPID, NAIVE AND STUBBORN! I thought I could get a good deal, cos it was not faking dirt cheap but a little more like reality grey market price, and in the fake email to me, they use amazon's domain meaning..... xxxxxxxxx@amazon.com!!! In that email, it was stated amazon is holding a fund of $4000 of that seller to cover liability in case of frauds! In actually fact, THOSE SOB CREATED THAT WHOLE F***ing EMAIL!!!!

Sigh, I fell for it and FELL FACE FLAT DOWN!!! $800 gone and vanished! Now instead of a new Canon 20D, I had to settled for an used 350D!!! Well, no choice but I hope my lesson will serve a good lesson learned to others!

Again thanks to Ham who put in so much efforts to bring more out of the whole thing to show others what actually happened and can happen!
