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 number is popular! Received an internet order from Ahamed Almulla PO Box 7675 Doha Doha 00974 QA Qatar. Immediately following the order we received an email asking the order be shipped to Ahmed AL-Mulla DOH 4075 182-21 150th Avenue, Springfield Gardens, NY 11413.
1) Note the spelling of the name on the original order
2) Note the spelling of the name on the 'new' shipping address
And of course the phone number on the order was 718-553-8740
Just cuaght this scum on ebay, user id is mahdiabulnabi. is getting greedy, confirmed with Ebay.com, this guy is a fruad/criminal
uses shipping address 147-29 182nd st NY
After a little research, I have found several names tied to this guy. Most of them obviously fictitious....Osama Bin Laden, Mohamed Al Saawy, etc... . Yes it's true, there are legitimate transfer hubs out there, but that's not the problem. This guy, and others like him, are tenacious SCAMMERS. Note some favorable comments above me, that's him chiming in! Don't be fooled!
Seems to be a "fraud," and the repliers here are trying to get readers in on the scam. I took the liberty of searching the Aramex website...they have a press release which assists sellers with "scams"

Press Release from Aramex (12.10.09)
Protect Yourself from Online Fraud
Published on: 12/10/2009 5:02:00 PM
Aramex builds bridges of trust with clients all over the world. To facilitate business and provide our customers with convenient channels we have utilized electronics tools for communication and interaction over the Internet. As helpful as the Internet can be, many parties engage in fraudulent activity in an attempt to deceive clients into disclosing personal or financial information, or providing payments unrightfully. To give credibility to their actions, the fraudulent parties often cloak their identities under reputable brands such as Aramex and other respectable organizations.
Aramex does not send any e-mails to request payment or cash transfers in advance for a shipment that you have not requested and has not been delivered to you.
How to spot fraudulent e-mails?
Most fraudulent e-mails share common elements, such as:
• Distorted Aramex logo, such as having a disproportionate size or appearing different from what is shown on aramex.com.
• Lack of contact details or phone number; the e-mail asks you to use a website or click a link.
• Mistypes “Aramex” or uses the name in combination with other words, such as: aramexupdate.com or aramexinvoice.com.
• Statements asking you to make a payment-in-advance for a shipment that you have not ordered and have not received.
• Unexpected requests that urge you to take immediate action; such as transferring money or checks to an unknown third-party via a trusted brand, such as Western Union or eBay.
• Requests for your contact information or bank account details.
If you suspect receiving a fraudulent e-mail, you can report it to Aramex by contacting customer service team, or by calling us at the number listed under your country on aramex.com. You will find this number by simply visiting aramex.com, then clicking the Office locator, and then choosing your country name. We take these e-mails very seriously and continue doing our utmost to protect your interests against illegal and fraudulent activities.

We found ours through ebay as well. We will be refunding the monies.
When requested for him to send us contact information (via ebay messenger only), he did not give any email address nor telephone number. We just received a strange generic email which claimed it was sent through pay pal with a whole bunch of hyperlinks. We did not respond to this letter, nor click on the hyperlinks.
We will be advising the proper authorities on our actions.
