Subject: Be Careful In Purchasing Tapes

Hello:

I know that this message may not be relevant to most of you but I am posting it here to warn any person about this. Hope that all of you will not mind that I am using up a bit of space in this message board.

I was cheated by a person called Angelito M. Comia (e-mail address angelcomia@hotmail.com), commonly called himself as Angel about close to US$300 by promising to sell me 11 pageant tapes but never delivered it. He stayed in Pasig City, Philippines and have requested me to deposit themoney into his account in Bank of Philippines Island Family Bank (BPI) first before sending me the tapes.

He posted a message more than a year ago in Pageant Central Message Board mentioning that he has Miss Universe 1966 to 2000 and wanted to look for any buyers. I e-mailed with him and agreed on our deal and deposited all the money in his bank account. However, I never recieved any tapes. After that, he started to be unfriendly (even though he did yell before earlier when I took some time to deposit my money into his bank account) and claimed that he had sent the tape. However when I asked him for the receipt, he claimed that he also lost it. Who will believe him? After that, he hardly replied my e-mail and even make-up stories that he is in hospital and others. He said he will send me another set of tapes but I never recieved them too. After more than one year until now, I still haven't recieve my tapes.

Pageant fans, please do not be cheated by him if you are intending to purchase tapes from him (even though it may be easy for him to use another name or info). Thank you.

[> I suggest you also go to Mabuhay tape trading and warn others about him too. My advice is get the tape before you pay. Also, it's illegal to sell those tapes. I would report him to Miss Universe Org. -- Thanks, 00:07:02 05/29/01 Tue

[> [> Thanks for your advice. I have already post a message on Mabuhay website and I am now trying to create awareness by posting it at all major message boards. I will try to pay after I get the tape in future (but the seller must also trust me enough to give me the tapes first before getting the money) or I will try pay 50% first and 50% after getting the tapes. I don't think Miss Universe Org will really bother as it is also partially in this illegal movement by buying the tapes. -- Joy Seng, 00:14:19 05/30/01 Wed
