He sends me pictures of at least 20 SSD's. although he claims to have bought only 6, and not a single one with a Synnex sticker

    I know Thai computer dealer have very small margins on products like HDDs. I suggest buy they here from a reputable company, including warranty.   I am not sure if the following is stil

    When buying computer hardware on Lazada, I only buy from the Official Stores of big name vendors such as Advice, JIB, Banana etc. You do pay a little bit more but you are less likely to be scammed IMH

So I thought let's contact the anti-online scam centre about above-mentioned scammer, and see what they have to say on it. After all they are available around the clock.

 

Is it any surprise that after a ringtone for about a minute, there was the voice message, "sorry there has been no answer from your requested number"?

Here is another Thai based scammer with a 96% seller rating.

 

Just go through the reviews and click on the pictures which show the serial number.

 

When I see that at least 5 different people have purchased an SSD with the same serial and DoM, then there are no doubts any more that we are dealing with a scammer.

The OP clearly asked about Seagate Ironwolf Hard Disk Drives for a NAS. 

Why is this thread polluted with posts about fake USB, SSD and NVME storage units???

Jeeze, stay on topic please.

Last month, I saved a thousand dollars by not buying locally here in Thailand. I won't tell you from where. Why? You're not nice.

Paid 3,700bht for a 5TB WD from WD on Lazada.

I'm happy enough with that, the Ironwolf were too expensive for me.

Just loading it up with my TV shows.

That's special. I just bought a Samsung 6 LTE watch.  300 Dollars instead of 500 Dollars here.  Same warranty. Great watch. 

 

Why give schmucks who overcharge everyone the extra 200 Dollars? I spent it on something else I needed.  Again, there is no money here; I paid for it there. 

 

If you were a nicer man, I might tell you.
