Title: W007 MIA?
Post by: CoolPizza on April 15, 2012, 12:21 pm
I ordered with W007 back in mid-February and nothing ever came. Now they're not even responding to my messages. Did I get scammed?

W007 is a stand up vendor. I had a transaction with him this week and had no problems. He had some troubles with his internet at home but kept to his word and everything was fine.

Just be patient... there are already a few threads relating to W007 in the last 3 days.

Have you sent W007 a message about this issue?

Have you ever learned how to read... bro said hes not responding to the messages being sent, why do you think he is asking if he was scammed...

It is true wumg generally seems like a pretty considerate guy who cares about his customers. When hes been unresponsive in the past it was only momentarily and due to other extenuating circumstances beyond wumgs control. Hopefully with some patience he will come through. Did you finalize early, if not you may just be able to get a refund from SR.

Honestly feb is a long time ago... i placed an order and wumg marked it in transit after sitting for a few days, then after a few more he canceled it. This was frustrating and I took it as a sign of declining customer service. Many other people had been waiting for weeks without packages showing and i was just glad and placed an order with another vendor. Wumg was fairly rude and called me a liar which i greatly resented and fear you may receive the same attitude. It really is a shame because my initial experience with wumg before the decline was exceptional and I really appreciate his excellent service and communication.  some of the long overdue packages eventually arrived as well so maybe you will get lucky

No need to be puerile...

I can only comment that my experience with W007 was a positive one. I have also not received a reply to my most recent email however i'm not concerned as W007 has always responded, even if there has been a slight delay.

Postage to my country has taken upwards of 10 weeks before but YMMV.

i was also curious about this as i have dealt with W007 a few times and he has always been a gent but i have not had any contact with him in the past five days. i hope everything is alright and that he returns soon. i was in the middle of a deal with him for btc and had sent wu payment which has not been picked up yet.
anyone have any advice on trying to get a refund from wu as my paranoia got the better of me and i used fake names as sender so i have no i.d. to claim refund? i fear my money may be stuck in wu limbo but if anyone has advice or connections in wu that can get my money back, i may be willing to pay for this, thanks.

well there you go.... If you sent him a WU payment, and it hasn't been picked up, he's fucken gone...... AFAIC there is only a few reasons.

#1, he got busted
#2, he's in the hospital for some reason
#3, he's dead.
#4, he's in hiding.....

now, since all his listings were pulled on (sat. i believe), im not inclined to think its 1,2 or 3..... But since someone sent WU transfer to him, and he hasn't bothered to pick it up, that kinda looks like any of the above are possible.

ive been in contact with him numerous ways since Jan. and spoke to him via hushmail or through the forums at least once every two days.I even have spoke to him in person in the past, but i don' want to get into that .....:-) The last i heard from him last last Wed. and since then he's just been plain gone. In the past few months, he always responded to my messages, even when he said he had 'net problems, to not respond for 7 days is just plain out of the ordinary. I'm hoping he's alright, as he's always been a stand up guy, but im seriously doubting it at this point.....

If anyone has heard from hin since Wed. or knows wtf is going on, pls PM me.....

to GreenBean 99, who sent WU and wants to get it back and has no ID, i believe your fucked. The ONLY way would be to call WU and request that you change the recipient.... the only issue is that you'll be changing the pickup location radically. I know you can change the recipient, but usually its just to a different person, in the same location as the original. I know, because i've done it before, over the phone to WU customer assistance.

If you want, PM me and ill share some details with you.....I have a couple questions for you as well concerning this.

Could he of been on TFM as well and got caught up with the WU and the Feds locating vendor's?
Title: Re: W007 MIA?
Post by: ginnz on April 20, 2012, 11:18 am
No, he wasnt on TFM.... I have a feeling he'll be back. He prolly just ran into some bad health issues. thats my guess. ;-)

Seems like we have a lot of unhealthy vendors on SR running into issues medically. Something in real life drug dealers I don't see typically, but always wonder, "How the hell does this dude not fall over and die?" because they seem very unhealthy, but always keep trucking.

because most vendors here don't abuse their merchandise as often as IRL dealers, and as such, suffer that malaise thrust  upon mortals, actually feeling the symptoms of an illness :-P

Only pay in btc unless you want to get busted. You're on camera at WU. Al they have to do is match the tape up with the time of the transaction and they have your picture.

apparently from what one member messaged me.. wumg00 had a heart attack/overdosed and is no longer with us...

I am not sure how accurate this information is, but he is missing so only time will tell.. If that information is true.... Then I feel really bad for all of this family and friends...

He was/is a standup guy, helped me out when I was just starting to vend........
I hope that the information from that one member is false, and wumg00 will show up soon...

if not RIP WUMG00/W007
I hope no one else starts calling him a scammer and ruining his reputation on The Silk Road, and if that information is indeed true I would like to see a little memorial on either the forum or actual SR marketplace as he was a good damn good vendor and member of this community..

I've been dealing with Wumg00/W007 for the past few months about once a week or so.  I ordered 2g from him about 10 days ago, but he only had one left, which he sent me and I received a few days later.  I had paid him for both and he was supposed to send the balance last Monday.  He then dropped off the map and I haven't heard anything since.  Needless to say the past few days have been rather uncomfortable.

The longest I ever recall him being unavailable has been a couple of days, it has now been about 10 days since last I heard from him.

I saw the thread about him passing away, it's really unfortunate that there always seems to be some low life who is willing to pull shit like that just to try and make a few bucks.

At this point it's really hard to say what the problem is.  I'm just hoping it's nothing serious and we will hear from him soon. I just don't see him trying to scam anybody, I think it more likely something happened and he's just laying low for awhile.

Now I just have to decide who I'm going to order from to replace him for now, I suppose I'll give both the other Canadian guys a try (OPI and Tony).  Those pebbles really look good. :)
