Fraudster: Jhon Lee

singapore ecommerce fraud

“Jhon Lee” of Singapore

This was an order for multiple items (thousands of dollars) with express shipping. The destination is a freight forwarding business within the Singapore airport. An inbound email was received regarding this order. The emailed used to contact us was the same email addressed used at checkout.

A quick Google Search of that email address yielded an eCommerce Scam Story on another website! The email address was flagged by them & all the details were spelled out.

We forwarded the information we had to authorities in Singapore & canceled the order.

What’s weird is this fraud origin was the USA (per the CC processor).

Fraudster: Randy Cooper

Virtual Office Space Fraud

“Randy Cooper” of New South Wales, AU

Summary of the Fraud Research

Despite going through the CC processor without a warning, there was reason to believe this transaction was fraudulent. This is another shipping & billing address located at a “Virtual Office” space, this time in Australia. The email address checked out & the “buyer” even responded to a backorder notification, saying that the delay is okay. A number of calls were made to the office building, requesting to speak to “Randy Cooper”. Each time a message was left with reception, no reply was made. This is the SAME issuing bank as the 

The email address ” mbrudulakeh@gmail.com ” belongs to Mbrudul Akeh, which actually matches the email address itself. It does not seem to belong to anyone named “Randy Cooper”, the buyer and recipient of the order.
