I also got scammed! Be very sure to change your debit, credit or any other card you may have used. This is a bogus company full of garbage and trash “people”! One day soon, they will face justice from an angry God!

Same as all the rest. Ordered my sounder thinking all the while that the price was to good to be true. It was. Looked at the credit card statement and saw that fgvips overcharged and the fake tracking is probably going to go on for a week or two more after five weeks already. I was really looking to this fish finder upgrade. Wish I'd looked here first!

Keep posting! If ANYONE RECEIVES A PRODUCT... POST IT! Unfortunately we all want to believe that there is a great deal to be had by only those of us that search it out. That is EXACTLY what these sc*mbags depend on!

I immediately cancelled and changed my card numbers. I WILL get my money back when the credit card company is satisfied that this is a fraudulent transaction.

In the meantime, I have to carry the balance. If anyone can direct me to the perps, I have a box of 000's

That I will not hesitate to deliver to there face! The only purge that works is swift and sure!

I ordered a sea navigator and fish finder combo lawrence ti7 on july 9 2018.

It was $139 sale on the site. Surprisingly i was given a receipt of $189 from taichen store in beijing.But on my bank it was debited $254.

A tracking number was given...I waited and waited...The tracking was never any of the mailing oe freight companies, it looks like it them making the input activities in the track record.

In the end after a month it says it was delivered in front my doors at calamvale qld australia around 4.45 pm on sept 1 2018.

I was vacuuming my car at that time, but never received any parcel. There was no email back address, no contacts. When i check on their site, all i can find is a scam report...So there went my $254 hard earned money.

I felt so bad!

I too have fallen a victim here in Australia.

I ordered a sounder and on the tracking it's also saying it was delivered to my front door after lengthy delays but never was delivered at all.

These people are scum and should not be aloud to get away with this.

Is there anyway we the victims of this scam do anything about this ?

unknowing I used this web site in July early. I first searched the web for complaints with non showing I decided to purchase a sounder.

Can get no contact from them or any other details. Was overcharged and have not received any goods. Site supposedly used PayPal but appears to be a scam.

Hi. Yes I too have purchased from them. I received my order number. Also when check, Tracking it’s updating daily to were it is. Now it’s been delivered to Air Port after courier scanned. Interesting what happens next.

  Sorry to say but is never arrives. Mine also said many updates for one month, then said arrived at door. Never arrived. Scam. Spread the word about them.
  
  Every one needs to know they a scam. Close or change credit card details. Contact your bank and tell them it’s a scam site. They may give your money back to you.
