Did I get ripped off?

[tim_s]

I ordered 120 euro's worth of proscar from http://www.pharma-corp.com a couple of weeks ago, and since then I've recieved nothing from them, and they ignore all my emails.
But I know that the guy is there, if you 'order' anything from them then you'll recieve an email with payment details quite quickly. and it is not automated.

Has anyone used them before?
I got the link for this company from regrowth.com a while ago, since paying for my order Ive searched messages here and at regrowth and found to my dismay that the service from this company is sketchy. Some have had their deliveries made and some like me are completely ignored. But which is it? No one can run a company like this.

So was my money stolen from me? im student so I havent exactly got much, it took a while for me to get that together. As you can tell Im really upset about this.

yeah i was going to uses them,but read of a few people who never got there proscar.
so i used planetdrugstore which cost a little more but is very legit

contact paypal or whoever you paid with and make a complant and if that dont work talk to you card company/bank

sorry that you got stung

if you after cheap legit finasteride or minoxidil
just look on these forums or ask a few people

Do a Google search on the company's name. If they are not legit, I would think that there would be more than a few people talking about them in cyberspace.

thats how I found this site, I know now Ive been ripped off majorly. I wont be trusting anything anyone on regrowth.com ever says again. Infact I wont ever visit that website again.
It boggles my mind that I didnt see just one complaint before ordering, because I surely wouldnt have if I did. and I browse a lot of hairloss information sites.


now for the next bit.

Firstly does anyone know anything about UK international transaction laws? I want to find out just what exactly I can do to try and get my £87 refunded, or his account closed or something along those lines.

Secondly here's all the details I know about this fraudster:

Western Union - sending the money to:
Paul Christian Markestrom

29008 Malaga
Spain

BBVA
Larios 12

Best Regards, Paul

Ive used western union before, and I believe they check youre address when you can pick up money, so that could well be where he lives.
Regardless though, that is definately his bank details, so what can we do with them?
Contact his bank and tell them he's been frauding people, and submit some proof?

thirdly I found this this post with google
http://www.hairsite7.com/m528finas15/_disc528/00000222.htm
was almost definately made by markestrom, Remote Name: 217.125.80.99 could this be his IP? granted its a while out of date but its a start.

Surely there has to be some way of retrieving your money when places like this don't send the product. The records are obviously there that you paid them, so if you don't get your stuff in the mail, just take whatever actions are necessary to get your money back. Do it now though. Lots of scams will take the money, then close down their 'business' or claim bankruptcy or something. Hurry.
Let us know what happened.

 

[tim_s]

I will do rawbbie, and I'll keep this forum informed.

edit: I just phoned my banks hotline, theyre saying theres nothing they can do its between me and the 'company'. Although I find it hard to believe theres absolutely nothing they can do. Anyone have any other idea's? I wont give up this easily against markestrom



I still need to order some proscar.. anyone able to tell me who the best bet is in the UK? I was thinking qhi, how trustable are they?

Sorry to hear about your troubles.

This is why I always tell people to go for a doctor for the meds. I know their are a few that can't, but most are to embarrassed to go to a Doctor. Plus going to a Doctor is cheaper for legit finasteride.

 

[tim_s]

I hear what youre saying and I visited a doctor twice, she was somewhat sympathetic.
But this sort of treatment is almost non existant in the UK. You cant claim anything on the national health service regarding hairloss.
The most she could do was give me a blood test. it was nice to know I didnt have hiv but that really wasnt what I wanted. Anything else is private health only starting at a consultation for £100


the next best thing I could do was find a non prescription company online..


I still need to buy some proscar though, anyone know a reliable company I can use a switch maestro card with? UK based if possible

 

[Cassin]

I know a couple UK guys have used this. I haven't though, so here it is anyway.
