GoldEx problems

Hello,

I got the following order in GoldEx:

Code:

Your Order ID:  DF-2271 
Order Date:  02-07-2008 
Your Payment Method:  e-gold 
Your e-gold Account Number:  392***
Batch Number:  88367829 
Debit Card Number:  XXX XXX XXX XXX
Fees and Amounts  
Purchase Amount:  1700.00 
Fee Amount:  170.00 
Amount you will receive:  1530.00

And it's still pending. Did message the owner (Marco) a couple times (11)
but still not getting a reply.
It seems they turned into SCAM which is actualy sad since the service was great.

I'm trying to digg-up some on them to perhaps fill a report at some place in attemp to get my funds back.

Also interesting seems to be the expire date:

Code:

 Registrar of Record: easyDNS Technologies, Inc.
 Record last updated on 17-Jun-2007.
 Record expires on 29-Jun-2008.
 Record created on 29-Jun-2002.

He might 'calculated' this in for some reason.

Doing some google on his ICQ number brought a link to; paybygold.com which has the following whois:

Code:

Which links to goldrobot.com with the same fax as goldex aswell.

even some juridical issue at the same panama address:
http://66.102.9.104/search?q=cache:p...A+AVENUE+34-20

Perhaps something more can be found on him?
Atleast his 'corps' and 'banks' are a mess, the account address he named doesnt excist nor does the panama corp.

STAY AWAY FROM THIS SCAM FOR NOW!
