Okay, dear friend, your order details:
One unit DJI AIR 2S with Fly More Combo Drone + Smart Controller: 600$
One unit DJI FPV Combo + DJI FPV FLY MORE KIT: 400$
One unit more DJI Mavic Air 2 with Fly More Combo as gift
Total quantity: 3 unit
Shipping cost by DHL(3--5 business day to get to your home)+Tax & Duty: Free
Total cost: 1000usd$
We use Wise, Western Union and T/T Bank Transfer as payment method, please choose, then i will send our account information to you.
By the way, Wise is very easy, convenient with much low fee, can transfer money on your mobile phone or your computer, and finish in 3 minutes, you can try.
Thoughts? Wise seems the safest however throwing in a free drone seems suspicious.

They are not referenced by alibaba and I don't know how they have had my email address.

Thanks for all

Like Paypal do ? I don't think so....
Here is an abstract of wise.com help in french :
En cas de problème avec les biens ou services que vous avez payés ou avec l’accord que vous avez conclu avec le commerçant, vous devrez contacter ce dernier directement pour résoudre le problème. Nous ne pouvons pas aider à négocier avec lui dans ces situations.
Can be translated as :
In case of problem with the goods or services you paid for or with the agreement you have with the merchant, you should contact the merchant directly to solve the problem. We cannot help negotiate with him in these situations.
 
Did any one of you got any product or any one here placed the order with the company.

The entire thread is a scam/bait xD
Look at the posts... Newbie accounts and none of them have post count > 10.
They'll probably play off as if they are skeptical of the service because of the insanely low prices (the bait) and then they'll act surprised and announce that they actually got the products (which of course, never happened).
 
But is is live on internet since 2011 and they did not got taken down how. Is there any possibility they are genuine. Does anyone have tried to order from them.

That's a very innovative way of scamming !

Social engineering at it's best!

"Newbies" passing as victims, only to later scam unsuspecting victims lol

Do you know the worst part?

This thread cannot be officially considered as spam because the OP is not directly promoting the website.

Sorry....
I'm not a scammer, I just want to know if that seller "menthai2011" is itself a scammer or not.
For your information I did not order the drones and I will not order unless I am sure the seller is not a scammer !!!
 
So what is this thread doing in the website flipping section?

No, I did not order and I can not find any information about an eventual buyer

If you're speaking the truth, then I'm sorry. And for the question of whether the seller is a scammer or not, I'm gonna raise you another question - doesn't this deal look too good to be true to you?

Have you, or anyone you know of, ever purchased a $1000+ product for half the market price and got a second unit for free on top of that?

I haven't.

As we all know that is not true but what if these are Chinese product and as we all know china manufacturers all the product at low cost. By buying from directly the manufacturer they would be getting at low prices. I don't know I may be crazy saying that but what if its true. I just a laptop at low price. I don't have a lot of money :(

No, but it's just a marketing angle. I bet this strategy works on less-savy forums out there.
