Imposter of George Ab; SCAM Alert

[George Ab]

There is someone who is attempting to assume my identity. It is not me, but a scam. I have not been selling since 2014. The below email address that is being used is NOT mine. georgeabrahams48@yahoo.com

I know of this as there have been two forum members who have contacted me asking if I am selling a White Daytona. This is the for sale post: http://www.network54.com/Forum/73792...+ref.+116500LN

Best,
The real George Ab

FYI: Some additional information I gathered from another forum member:

I would like to kindly ask you to post on my behalf of what I wrote.

Below is my post Im not sure if you can copy it from here. If not please give me your email so I can send you the file. Thank you!

*NOTE: I am from Thailand so pardon my English from here on but PLEASE READ TIL THE END

Here is what I'd like to share.

I'm not a seller, only a collector. I use "watchrecon" app to hunt for my watches. I have 116500 on alert mode. I have been tracking it everyday but suddenly an alert came through on 25/2/18 of this post

http://www.network54.com/Forum/73792...+ref.+116500LN

However it was dated 23/2/18 which I found a little odd. This I began to contact him.



Here is his reply



I'll put it in text for hyperlink:

I am also a competitive powerlifter in the IPF.
So here is pretty much everything about me. I'm am just a guy looking to sell my watch. Let me know."
As you can see the link of reference he gave me is a reference for the REAL George AB from TRF which I did not realize at first but I still have my doubts.

So I looked into the website of his business references and found that it is a badly coded website. If you clink into "ABOUT US" of both sites you can clearly see it is like a cover website just to appear a trustworthy references.

Then I thought I tried asking him that I would pay by PAYPAL to see his reaction.




After that I began contacting one of his references "Phillip MK"





I then began digging into this specific sale and found that FAKE Georgeabrahams sold the 114060 on November 2017.

*Unfortunately I was not able to capture this post at the time as now I think he already deleted the post after sending me pictures of the watch*

However after googling PhillipMK I found that he posted for sale a 114060 via this link

http://www.watchforum.sg/showthread....f-114060/page2

Please pay close attention at the picture of the watch in PhillipMK's post that it is the exact same watch as the one FAKE George Abrahams sold which I will show you next.

I asked Georgeabrahams to send me picture of his 114060 that he sold to PhillipMK at 12:21AM on 26/2/18 to his email: georgeabrahams48@yahoo.com see in attached below.



Turns out it was Phillipmk@yahoo.com who sent me the picture instead at 12:25AM on 26/2/18. I guess he forgot to switch email account which blew his cover. Now I realize Phillipmk and FAKE georgeabrahams is the same person.



Few minutes after that he tried to correct his mistake by sending me another picture of the watch. 12:32AM on 26/2/18.



Now that I know he is a complete fraud I told him that I agreed to wire transfer for the watch just to get his real Bank Account number.
