Tell us has your experience with this business or person been good? What's this?

wedsite name: closeoutsliquidators.com, too good to be true deals. Called the US Embassy to run check on company and it doesn't exist on their system, they visited the address they have on their wedsite and there was no company there by that name or type. Company doesn't answer their phone and the other out of service. Only communicates via email: [email protected], [email protected]

You cannot make payment via a secure route: Paypal, Google Checkout, Escrow, etc. only via direct credit card or wire transfer to a company account: G T Liquidations Inc, which when searched by the US Embassy has been suspended since 2011.

Wen questioned they sent some tracking numbers to try and show legitamcy and wanted to make shipment via MSC - who has warned about fraudulent bill of ladens from wholesale companies on their website.

Site/Scam is associated to once fraudulent website productsliquidators.com, closeoutswarehouse.com, they cannot be contacted via phone, there is no record of thier company.

When IP address of emails were traced it cshowed it came from Mexico, exact location I have via google map, via a server in Houston Texas named web.productsliquidators.com

When I notified the Embassy of updates, thhey said they are aware of this company and currently investigating.

Buyers please beware, check IP addresses, check address of company to see if they exist, make sure you have a working contact number, make payments via a safe payment gateway, check Tax ID, etc.

I also made a payment of USD 4583.00 for 50 iPhones 4S to this company but have not received anything from this seller. I asked the person in charge (Amanda) many times for the tracking number and Bill of Lading and he promised send it to me next day but still received nothing.

I paid him via money gram from Vietnam about two weeks ago and he said that the shipment will reach my door this weekend, but today is weekend and nobody of DHL or similar has contacted me for the delivery.

Hi Amanda,

I am sorry, but I do not know whether you have sent the shipment of 50 iPhone 4S to me or not? Why have you delay providing me with the tracking number until now? I am very tired with your attitude and cannot patient anymore. So, pls confirm to me the reality of this business with thanks.

Thanks and Best regards,

 

Mr. Le Ngoc Tho (Steven)

#4General Comment

Tue, November 19, 2013

I have also transferred money to this compnay through bank wire, as they "do not" accept paypal from outside USA. It was a stupid move of me and now I cannot get in contact with any of them. No shipment. Nothing.

I contacted the US Embassy in Jordan and they said that they can not do anything about it and it is all my responsibility. After pushing more they could only assist by providing contact information of this company if possible and yet I am still waiting.

The only way they said is to pursue them legally and get a lawyer, but as I paid around 5000$ it will cost more than that to have a lawyer.

If a group of us could gather and take legal action it would be more helpful and it would be more effective for us and most importantly on the scammer.

for contacting me, my email bashar.salah at gmail dot com

Do you Trust on Google wallet for online purchasing? Because this person recommended me to use this method of payment.

 

Also I noticed that the emails have mistakes on the usage of the english language. Did you notice it?

 

Sincerely...

Disappointed

After confirming and guaranteeing that my order will be shipped if comment was removed they have not sent or done anything regarding my order besides sending a fake tracking number that isn't associated to their company.

They have also threatened to post lies about my company if I repost any negative comments on their company.

Everything about their company is a total scam, If there is anyway to upload email communication from them onto the internet kindly advise as it will show all the different stories they use and how their scam works

Advise everyone you know about this company and notify other sites about this scheme as to alert others on their methods as they will most likely change their company name as this one is uncovered.

I finally got in contact with someone from Closeout Liquidators and they confirmed my order will be shipped.

So they seem to be a legit company.

It may just take some time to get them to understand what you want.

I would like to retract all my previous statements on this business.

Thank you
