who the hell is ZYGOTEC LIMITED
 

This has got to be a scam, they are selling the nokia N900 for $240 and only except payment via western union. Have any of you done business with them, or hear of them before?

To me this is clearly a scam, but you never know. I'm definatly not sending anyone money via western union.

I ran their first company registry number through the UK database and it matches a company from Camberley in Surrey, called Xotecom Ltd.

Xotecom appears to be owned and managed by a woman named Angela Fehrenbach, and teaches leadership management for blue chip companies.

A little further digging reveals that Zygotec uses at least two different business registry numbers aside this one, although one of them (04484360) matches a zygotec limited which is in essex.

Seems like a scam to me.

It sucks, when people do this. You get your hopes up thinking it may actually be tru, but in your heart you know it isn't. So I entertained it knowing full well, I would never sent this guy my money.

NOKIA rescue me soon, the Dr. says a N900 is the only thing that can save me!!

The age-old adage, "If it's too good to be true, it probably is" yet again rings true. (note, though, that excessive incredulity is your own dang fault, but it's a good rule of thumb)

Re: who the hell is ZYGOTEC LIMITED
 

I don't think it excessive, if everyone else is saleing a phone for $500 - $640. and you can sale it for $240, then when I ask how you tell me because you buy in bulk. WTH!!! I don't know many retailers that don't buy cell phone stock in bulk. So I would call it Health incredulity.

Scam them back! Tell them you need ten dollars to pay the fee to withdraw the money from the bank to purchase the n900.

Re: who the hell is ZYGOTEC LIMITED
 

I agree that it's healthy here; I have a strange need to qualify statements (e.g. Linux might seem too good to be true to some, but it ain't).

totally agree that $240 is implausible at best.

lol... I do that sort of thing in response to Nigerian scams. I had one guy going nuts as I repeatedly told him to just deduct my "fee" from the fund he promised, and send me the difference. His patience wore a lot thinner than mine after about 3 times. :D

Re: who the hell is ZYGOTEC LIMITED
 

Thats funny as hell, I told him to send the phone COD. I said that way you don't deliver the phone w/ out payment, and I won't send payment w/ out a phone.

Never got a reply, go figure.
