*latest update*
Mike just sent me a screen shot of a wire of $2700 USD first. At about 1.5 hours ago. He didn't do the first wire i guess. The name that he typed may not match my bank records. Will call the bank and verify. another $5800 USD to go. |

I think our help has pretty much run the gamut on this scammer who stole your funds.
Further optimism is likely futile as to whether you’re ever going to see the funds. If it serves the horological community to make your official crime reports public, please feel free. But that appears to be the only route open now. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

It is like getting certified
Well, it might have cost you $8000+ to go to school, but learn you did and you might have saved a soul or two along the way.
P.S. FOOD FOR THOUGHT If you can keep this person engaged, it is obvious that he does not have the capital to pay you back ipso facto. Maybe you can set up a payment plan that will allow you to recoup your money over the long haul? Say $500 x month?

This guy likely doesn't have the cash or the watch. Time for the authorities.

Just seeing this... ****, sorry man
I’ve dealt with Gaoxing84 on multiple transactions, he’s a good dude! This sucks, honest opinion; get proof of the wire from the bank. 3 way call his bank, you make the call, have him verify the wire on that call. If he won’t do that or the wire isn’t on the way, you need to call the cops now. International wire fraud, I’m not a lawyer, but I’m pretty sure there is a serious felony in there somewhere. Where is he located? If he’s in NY/NJ shoot me a text and I’d be happy to help. |

I have no idea which AD or Broker he is working with. 1) He told me it was in process (assuming $4,000 from the first call he made to me on Sunday (1st of July). 2) Gave him my full wire information 3) He told me he's on to it and have the wire done on Tuesday (3rd of July) 4) He told me its in process on Wednesday (4th of July, which is a holiday) 5) No contact made from him till he called me on Friday (6th of July) when i asked for confirmation screenshot or proof. 6) He told me he's going to get it and send me. 7) Only in the early morning of Saturday (7th of July, my time here in Singapore), i received this attached photo of the wire being, a total of $2,700 and he told me he's going have another $2,700 sent out on following Monday) 8) Called my bank on Saturday (7th of July, bank told me that there is no pending funds incoming, if its done 1 day before, they should see funds pending). 9) Shot him a text and told him, my name and address that he keyed into the wire details are incorrect and it doesn't match my bank record. He told me he didn't received any rejection notification and he's going to check. that's the last contact i have with him. this is the photo that he sent me. My name is incorrect because is not my full name as per my bank records. Address is wrong too, the first line is correct but not the second line. ![]() |

Call the authorities ASAP. This is ridiculous. Unless you don’t care to ever get your $$ back...

Call your bank and see if the confirmation code 235983180 is valid.

Sorry to hear of your experience.
Are the shown last 3 digits of your account number correct? If the account number and name/address do not match the payment may be put in an exception queue by your bank for handling. If the differences are minor e.g they are still able to make out you are their customer and which account it goes to they will likely still credit to your account. Otherwise they will reject and inform the sender’s bank they can’t credit. It can take a few days before the sender is informed. As a bro above suggested, check with your bank with the details and confirmation code. It seems rather weird that he made such mistakes given that he refunded you before and should have you added as a bank payee. Hope it is not another farce to stall for time. Good luck. |

Michael Le AKA Goldcoastwatches - Anyone knows him personally? Need your help
I find it funny this Michael Le doesn’t want to explain his situation to this thread. After all he is a member on this forum.
I still don’t get it. OP gave Michael 8000 in full and we see a screen shot for $2700? I expect $8000 in full return. Did he ever show proof he sent the money to AD or so called broker like he stated? Or just another lie? OP there are different ways to handle your situation but at the end of the day, it’s up to you how you want to resolve the issue. |

No proof and no clarification of who the AD was suppling the watch? Some mighty strange purchasing decisions being made these days.

the way of ibanking works alittle different in the USA and Singapore. I called the Singapore bank, they say everything have to match entirely before funds will be accepted. its normal as when i do wiring to the states, everything have to match. I have got rejected funds from the bank because there's a missing comma or something. it's very sensitive as it involves money. yes, Kman, i have dealt with him many times and he did refund me money when i send it twice erroneously. so i have no idea what's going on with him. it's ok to reply alittle slower but ensure you walk the talk and do the things that you promised. so far, i have seen nothing yet. here's another screenshot he sent me and the transaction/confirmation matches with the other screenshot.
