Fraud alert

Thought I had bought a cell phone from this James guy so I paid 300.00 though Yahoo checkout. 8 minutes later, got an email from James Macbent saying the credit card merchant is down that I would have to Western Union him the money. Not only no! But "heck" no. But as a test, I asked him where he was shipping the item from and he said the UK, so I said, "OK" He provided me with a London Western Union address which I sent exactly 1.00 as a test. Sure enough, I tracked it to Nigeria where someone had indeeed picked it up. Smelling a scam, I emailed Macbent (James) to cancel the order. The next day, three attempt to post $1, 000.00 through Yahoo were made on my credit card. Yep, the one old James said was down. Of coarse the charges were denied and the account closed. I thought Yahoo would be a little more diligent to protect us from websites they allow to post. Buysellmart is a SCAM. FRAUD ALERT!

Bad service

If you purchase any of their attractively in-expensive items, you will be redirected to Yahoo checkout. At that point, the credit card is indeed taken but, you will be notified by a James Macbent going by james AT busysellmart.com and told the credit merchant is "down" and you must provide personal information> he will in turn send you the proper ID to WESTERN UNION him the money. Good Luck.

Be very careful when a legitimate looking store on the web asks that only Western Union is accepted. A WU moneygram once paid can be picked up anywhere in the world. So if Mr. Macbent claims he is in the US, don't beleive it. A Wu can be wired to a Pheonix adress but accepted in Nigeria. I know, I sent 1.00 to test a seller on this website and it was picked up in Zimbabwe after Mr. Macbent said he was in the UK. I complained to Yahoo but since he has paid for his web site from them, they do nothing. Sad. I hope they at least post this so it does get published so anyone researching this can be forwarned before getting "taken."

As of now, Wikio and Yahoo! shopping have removed busysellmart.com from its merchant listing. As for its presence on the internet, this website still can be accessed and Yahoo still has a checkout program for them. Several potential customers are still receiving emails from Mr. Macbent confirming his wares are indeed for sale asking for western Union as payment. His registered company in the US is Tery Max in Atlanta, Georgia. This address is in compliance with Safe Harbor which requires overseas operations legit or otherwise to have a domestic presence in order to use Yahoo as a host. Just be careful, western Union or any payment other than an real escrow service or credit card can lessent he chances of you actually losing your money.
