Complaint Review: P.J.TRADER - ENGLAND Select State/Province

____________ ONE OFF UPDATE _____________

 I am responding to claims made on this blog as a one off and to refute these
ridiculous lies. 

I bought some perfume with a friend of mine (which we never received) from a Mireille Weber (also uses Mireille Nelly).   
All is explained on a blog I wrote back in 2009 warning others http://parfumazur-fraud.blogspot.com/  

Since I blogged in March 2009, I have received a barage of blogs from Mireille Weber  giving incorrect information and stating outrageous lies about me.  (which I totally refute). The dates can be witnessed on the web, as audited.  Mireille Weber seems to use various blog sign ons. She has also been involving other businesses I am part of and collegues I work with (external companies which are totally unrelated to my personal transaction with her or any of these businesses).  Her request being for me to remove my initial blog.  Reports were made by me in 2009 to the UK police and Western Union (see below email) and we had reason recently to inform the police and other authorities of more recent activity with Mireille Weber and her interfearance with our business (around 5 months ago).
 
I confirm I have never written any other blogs than the above initial blog (and now this one, in defense of the lies and to set the record straight - its a bit late I know, been busy, but at least sets record on my side).   After March 2009, I seized communicating with Mireille, but then in March 2010 had reason to write to her again due to her blogging.  I have had no contact with her since March 2010.  

We are not pursuing the money that has been effectively stolen from us. (too timely and costly), however, If Mireille Weber / Mireille Nelly) does ever return our money (or provide the goods), I will blog when received (on the link http://parfumazur-fraud.blogspot.com/ and in the same sign on I used for the initial blog).  

 For those interested, I received the below email from Western Union when we reported the incident.  All has been audited.

THIS IS MY LAST BLOG ON THIS SUBJECT

Dear Mr Milligan
 
RE: MTCN
XXXXXXXXX
 
Thank you for
your email received 31/03/2009.

  We are very sad to hear that you have been the victim of a criminal scam. It is important to note that consumer fraud is a global problem that affects financial organisations of every size. 
 
However, Western Union takes all such reports very seriously and investigates all reported consumers scams or frauds on a case by case basis. We also urge consumers who have been victims of such scams to report the matter to their local police. Western Union works very closely with local law enforcement authorities to address and prevent consumer scams, and fraud and to thoroughly investigate cases reported. 
 
Our policy and procedures require that the recipient of a money transfer must provide a government issued photo ID plus the transaction number when collecting cash. That is why it is so important that consumers observe the clear guidance and do not share private information such as transaction numbers or copies of the documentation related to a person to person money transfer with any other party. 


It is also important to note that the Western Union service is a money transfer service only. It is not a deposit or escrow service for the purchase of goods or services. We strongly advise consumers not to use our service for such activities. 

 Educating consumers is a key component in preventing fraud and we continually communicate with our customers to highlight this important issue. Consumers are and always will be the first and best line of defence against consumer fraud, especially when it comes to protecting and safeguarding their personal data and identity information. 

We have developed a robust fraud prevention programme which is regularly reviewed to ensure we continue to offer our customers a secure and reliable service. We also work closely with various internet service companies, consumer groups,
government agencies and law enforcement authorities around the world to build consumer awareness of fraud and to assist with the prevention of consumer fraud. 

Western Union, as said, will investigate this case and pass on the helpful information to all relevent departments. However, we are unable to make refunds to consumers who have been defrauded.  We would like to thank you again for taking the time to provide us with this information.
 
Kind regards
