Jack Pujji, Aka J. S. Pujji -- Lowest Airfare Finder, Aka Cheapest Discount Airline Tickets defrauded us out of nearly $3000; airline tickets never booked or reserved Flushing New York
April 9-20, 2004: I believed that I had bought international flight tickets from Mr. Pujji, but the tickets never arrived. When I contacted Mr. Pujji, he was full of empty promises, such as "I will ensure your tickets will arrive next Monday" and so on.
April 23: When the tickets did not arrive, I decided to call the airline that I'd supposedly bought tickets for and discovered that no seats had ever been booked in my name.
I again contacted Mr. Pujji and again received an empty promise that "within two hours" I'd have a confirmation code by which I could confirm my booking with the airline. He never called back.
This man is extremely difficult to pin down. He never answers emails and only rarely was I able to talk to him (nine times out of ten I'd get his answering machine).
May 1, 2004: When last I spoke to him, he glibly promised a refund. As of this date, May 5, no refund has been issued and I cannot reach him through any means.
I had to book tickets through a different travel agent as I am leaving May 12th. Because that is only a week from now, and because I had to use my travel money to buy my tickets, this matter is of some urgency.

Get your money back and provide info for current investigation
#2Consumer Suggestion
Fri, May 07, 2004
As another recent victim of Jack Pujji, I have some information that may help get your money back and put a stop to Pujji for good! I received a letter from Rachel Rifenburg at the NY Attorney General's Office/Internet Bureau on 4/27. She said that due to numerous complaints, they have instructed Flushing Police to initiate an investigation. She said that any information about Pujji should be given to Detective Thomas Luberto, 109th. Detective Squad, 37-05 Union Street, Flushing, NY 11354. Any/all information will be helpful in building their case. After hearing from other victims, I realized the only way I would get my money back ($2,300) was to confront him in person. I did and it worked. We went to the Flushing police station and they actually told us to go to his home, guarenteeing us we'd get our money back. If you are serious about getting your money back, I would advise you to buy a cheap ticket or take a train to NY. Go to his home address, 43-70 Kissena Boulevard, Flushing, not the Sanford Ave. address where you mailed the check to. Don't ring the buzzer in the lobby, wait outside until someone leaves to enter the building and go straight to his apartment, Suite 8K. This address is on nearly all of his websites. Go early before he leaves for the day, but during banking hours. The banks are open until 1:00 pm on Saturday. His bank is literally 2 doors down from his apartment building. Insist that he accompany you to the bank and get cash. His checks have been known to bounce. If for some reason you don't catch him in, his wife lives there and will most likely answer, tell her that you plan to stay until he gets there and I bet she will find a way to contact him. He appears very consious of avoiding any scenes in his place of residence, so that should get him there quickly. Best of luck and feel free to contact me for more info.
