The address provided is not a scam I also is a customer of Aramex and using same address with my specific code. Customer using this are mostly for Middle East, like me im residing ing Riyadh and my Code added in the Address is RUHxxxx, so if you track the IP address of your customer mostly it will be ip loated in MIddle East, This is also reason why you found different names with same address but with different codes.
You can the link provided by Mr. Abubaker for more info.
This is just Aramex shipping address for their customers who subscribe to shop&ship service. It's convenient for people from all over the world who don't have US mailbox but want to buy online from US sellers. Don't treat it as scam.
We have sold to Zaied Alhussain at that address and number for a number of YEARS. We've never had a problem. I too, was alarmed when we got the original order. I checked it out, yes it's a company that ships overseas for international companies, purchasing from U.S. companies. He has literally placed over a 100 orders, NEVER had a problem
I just caught an order of $223 USD, that just came thru today to be shipped to:
Effat Alsabban
147-29 182nd Street, DOH 3338
Springfield Gardens, NY 11413
718-553-8740
I caught this order and canceled it! The IP address is from India. I also upgraded my merchant account to include fraud detection, and blocked the IP address from visiting my site again. I did all this with this order because just yesterday I got a notice of a chargeback for $177 placed for an order in December 09 that we actually shipped. That order was shipped to another transportation company located in Florida to.
Marcial Mendez
8627 NW 54th Street
Doral, FL 33166

the card holder of this order disputed the charge. The thing is that IF the card number is stolen and the card holder disputes the charge.. you cannot make a claim to keep the money with the merchant company for several reasons.
1. I can't prove the order was shipped to the card holder's address.
2. I can't provide a signed receipt (since the order was placed online)
3. The delivery signature is just a worker working on the dock of the transportation company it was shipped to.
Funny thing is that while today I'm catching this order, I get a caller on my chat line wanting to know if we ship to India ..when I told her we do not ship over seas she wanted to know what is the alternative. I advised her to search for another company who offers items like us who does ship over seas. Then she wanted to know if she shipped to an address in the US how much would it be..etc.. yada, yada, yada
I blocked her IP from accessing my site again too.
3 ocurances in one week is too many! Plus I've been having some guy who will not leave me alone about signing up an account with his company who offers transportation services in the same manner.. so that "I can offer international shipping..when I don't". I've told him I do not want to sign up with this service numerous times but he will not leave me alone (calling and emailing me). Seems ever since he has started bugging me I seem to be getting numerous orders from people over seas requesting that their order be shipped to one of these type companies. And so far have had one chargeback from it. Ugh!
You ask why would someone want to do this? If someone is using a stolen card number,
I must have been this company's first victim back three years ago. I did post a warning on a forum online three years ago back then:
Just had a sudden transaction reversal due to the buyer (mr mohamed
mubarak fadel alkhamis) contacting his credit card company and stating
he did not authorize the transaction. Of course wonderful PayPal
immediately bows down to the credit card bank and takes the money from
my account and without any question just reverses the funds back to
the buyers bank.
This buyer has been around my website for at least a month or two,
then just made a small purchase of some arcade boards (<$200). I
suppose afterwards he decided to 'see' if he could get his money back
and keep the products sent. So much for the mighty PayPal Charge-back
fighting team which they claim to have.
Anyhow, here is the details and I would suggest not selling to him:
mr mohamed mubarak fadel alkhamis
box# BAH 2151 147-29 182nd street
springfield garden, NY 11413 USA

718-553-8740
Rec'd 3 back to back orders with one of the above addresses and both this phone number and two others attached to the order. The name, address, and phone all matched the billing info for the card, so the first order shipped out. One chargeback and $340 later, we're not happy about it at all. Even after phoning the customer for verification, the bank will not return the money to us due to the order being placed online and shipped elsewhere.
We will not release the address info for the purchaser due to legality, but the name on the order was Frank Cardinale and the order was shipped to the following address:
c/o Miguel Martinez
