Ebay's Opinion? Asif Zamir is a Scammer

I haven't really emphasized this before, but when I filed a dispute on ebay regarding the Asif Zamir's failure to provide the merchandise I paid for, Asif Zamir did not respond. I then filed for compensation as a victim of fraud. Ebay investigated and found in my favour and compensated me $175 USD as a victim of fraud on ebay. $175 is the maximum amount that ebay compensates fraud victims.

So, if anybody has any lingering doubts that Asif Zamir is a crook, think about the above.

Asif Zamir: Thief, Liar

Hi All! I'm back!

There have been some developments since I've been away. There are - let's see - 4 new victims. Two victims from the usual camera equipment scam and two that Asif scammed into doing work for him to the tune of well over $20,000 and then never paid.

It looks like Asif Zamir is getting back into business and he hopes to start anew and forget his sordid little past. Of course, his business is fraud, so if the 12 of us just go away, he'll just create more victims until somebody puts a stop to it.

The good news is that the more victims we have the more interesting Asif becomes as a target of a criminal investigation. The bad news is that there are more victims.

I am amazed by how many people who were scammed 1 - 1.5 years ago still Google Asif to try to find something out about him. He obviously doesn't care about the misery that he creates, but the fact that a victim from July 2006 contacted me after Googling Asif in December 2007 shows that the psychological impact of fraud is profound.

Victims who write me have likened Asif's fraud to the most intimate of violations. I certainly feel violated, stupid and gullible. This is worse than having you house broken into; home theft doesn't involve a gross violation of trust.
