[Citizen X]

Based on the info so far - sounds like the next step is go to the police.

I think so too! Anyone with some information on the inner workings of 'perfect touch,' i.e. a disgruntled employee, co perpretator etc.. sms your tip off to crime line 32211..Or you can just post their full and further details right here such as physical address, names and surname, where they operating from..Someone out there has all this information...

Can we not trace his ass by with the web hosting team? I'm trying to get the banks to locate him sure they can??

I see the website is hosted by wozaonline.co.za - I'm sure they'd take a dim view of this, but I see fraud isn't one of their "report abuse" options. About the best option to get the issue on wozaonline's radar would seem to be this.

Feedback:
Dear valued client.

I would like to inform you about the recall process.
A recall is an attempt to recover funds that you have wrongfully transferred to the beneficiary. An internet transaction is considered to be a cash transaction and cannot be stopped. It is therefore not a guaranteed process. I am unfortunately not able to access the beneficiaries account, and subsequently require the beneficiary bank to assist me in this regard. However they too have restricted access to their clients account. They are not able to do anything on the clients account without consulting with the client.

I would like to take the opportunity to advise you that the recall request has been ineffective. The beneficiary bank has advised that their client has insufficient funds in their account for the recalled amount. As per NCA (National credit Act) Industry Regulations the beneficiary bank is not able to disclose any details with regards to their clients account. I could however obtain the below contact details to assist you in contacting the beneficiary directly.

Your Faithfully

Ironically enough, a friend of mine was about to buy a camera from Perfect Touch. He just mentioned it to me and I referred him to this link. This is the string of correspondence that transpired between Theo and Perfect touch[I omitted my friend’s surname and full email address for his privacy]

Subject: Entry level camera for a Christmas gift: Query
To: perfecttouch.james@gmail.com
Dear Sir/Madam,

1. I would like to buy an entry level camera for a friend as a Christmas gift. I really mean entry level, price wise.
2. What would this cost me, how long would it take before I receive it and how do I pay you?

Kindly revert.

Kindly regards,
Theo

Morning Theo,

Just saw your message now in our spam folder, are you still interested in buying the camera?

I will be looking forward to hearing from you.

Hi there,

You won't believe it, I ended up buying a Samsung Galaxy touch screen for the person thinking it will have a good camera. It turns out that it's quite average!

Yes, if it entry level, price is not high, price includes shipping etc.

What entry level camera could you recommend and how do I pay you, what reference must I use on the ETF, my name or my id number etc. Do have a track and trace facility?

Kind regards,
Theo
