Scammer by JFK No limit

Hi all,

I found this thread by chance and want to tell you that I am victim of this scammer too. I am from Vienna Austria and bought the watch Rolex GMT Master II Ref. 16710 from him and paid him at the end of July. Till now I do not receive any watch from him. The last message I got from him is on 06.08.2017. Since then nothing hear from him

I already reported this fraud case by Chrono24 but Chrono24 could not help me except encourages me to go to the local police. That was big disappointed from Chrono24. I just expected that Chrono24 must take more action again this scammer.

I think we can come together and take action to get money back. If someone have idea, please contact me via private message.

Cheer

Really a very misleading website with everybody being a trusted seller, it should be shut down imho.
In comparison at least eBay is taking all kind of action against scammers.

Many more people will become a victim I fear.

But of course it is the business model that counts, sellers pay them, what you'd expect
chrono24 should be shut down if you ask me. i avoid it completely. i feel for the EU members who dont have access to other means of obtaining watches via the internet.

Sorry to hear about the misfortunes all of you have experienced. I have trust issues now, Chrono24 is a big market place for watches. There are even bad apples on this forum from what I read. Most have given the advise to buy directly from AD.
