ELECT SONEX SDN BHD electsonex.com Fraudulent Site - Failure to ship product paid for. Selangor, Internet

I placed an online order for a Sony HDTV on 02/24/12 and checked out with my MC credit card. After 4 days of pending status, I inquired via an email, and was told there was a problem with my card, and that the transaction would be cancelled.  Subsequently, I was asked to send the payment to their US agent/accountant in Louisiana.  I was given the name and Capital  One bank account number for the agent. 

On 03/01/12, I deposited $1303.78 into the agents account which Rashid Faruq of electsonex.com indicated was never received.  I went to the bank couple of times, and the manager told me the money was placed in the account, and that since I voluntarily paid the money into the account, I had to contact the bank customer in Louisiana directly.  To cut a fraudulent story short, Rashid Faruq told me that they had severed their relationship with the agent, and for me to get my money back from her. After some protestations that they should send me the tv, and get the money from the agent, Mr Faruq finally came with an offer that electsonex.com would sell me the tv for $500, and that I should send the money via Western Union to a Jayden Norman in Malaysia.  Well, it is said that a sucker is born every minute, the problem is that this sucker was born long time ago, and should have known better especially since Rashid Faruq was emailing me every other day asking when I would be sending the money.   

On 06/01/12, I sent the money, and when Western Union emailed me confirmation of pick up, i wrote Rashid Faruq asking him when I should be expecting delivery.  Here is his email from electsonex@hotmail.com:
Dear xxxxxxx the company management stopped the shipment of Order due to certain reasons, We are having problem with custom department, dues to this we are unable to ship 1 single Units of TV to you. at the moment the minimum order we can ship out to your location is 2 Units of the TV. dues to the increment In vat and tax fee, so as a matter of fact I urge you to follow our company units policy, the balance you will be sending now is $1300 and the company management has requested you to make the payment of $1300 through Western Union today, With the payment of $1300 so you can be able to get the all shipping document for the delivery of your order. Note: This is from the General Sales Manager's table, We are Sorry for any inconveniency Thanks Rashid.   

When I received the email on 06/01/12, I bursted out laughing at myself. After calming down,  I wrote Rashid Faruq back asking for my money back.  Of course, his reply was no refund, and that I would get 3 tv's after sending $1300. This site is a fraud. If you read any positive comments about electsonex.com on the net, you can be rest assured that the fraudsters at electsonex.com plant those stories.
