The funny thing is the website states ........... Great News!
My Indian Hair is to be featured in Hype Magazine for overall
excellent products and superb customer service! Watch out for
the June issue!!
I bet they would reconsider if they knew that!!

Uh oh. According to the BHM forum, she also owns Beautiful Indian Hair... the one I found and posted about a week or so ago! If she does, then she goes by the name Lola Noble.
Pooh. I knew it was too good to be true. Anyhoo- I'm still waiting for the samples to arrive.

Hi all,

I do search that board the same as here and I do recall the things that were going on and it's true this person isn't that trustworthy.

Side note: There was a report about this website on the news a few weeks ago which led me to check it out. I wouldn't believe everything on that site as anyone can post and the site owners don't verify the information. They also charge the company to delete information that is not true.
I was looking at this site a few nights ago and they even let people post pictures of others and say horrible things about them (example: dead beat dads and moms). So becareful because if you piss someone off or just rubb them the wrong way they can go and post something about you that may not be true and there isn't anything you can do about it. Be careful of posting yout pictures online and giving them to people you don't know.

The concept of this site is good but without verification I think it's dangerous. Please ladies becareful. Just my two cents.

Syren~I think the site you found might not be the ScamCandy
owner. The site you found is from New York and there is a lady
who claims this is her friend and not the scammer. ??????
ScamCandy is from Michigan.

Still waiting for my samples, too. I got an email yesterday that they paid for shipping thru paypal. That doesn't mean it's on its way though.

So, are you saying the place that we ordered the samples from might also be run by someone in Michigan who scammed some people out of hair?

_______________________

(edit: below is my original email after I ordered the sample. They said they'd ship it out last Monday on the 28th but yesterday I got the notice that they just paid for shipping thru PayPal (which does not prove they mail it. They're not making a good impression on me based on this alone, that's for sure.)

From: info@beautifulindianhair.com
Subject: RE: New Order Notice
Date: February 24, 2005 7:23:11 PM PST

Dear amm,

Thank you for your recent order and payment of $3.95 for a sample pack of our straight, curly and wavy hair. We will ship out your order on Monday, February 28, 2005. Please contact us at info@beautifulindianhair.com if you have any questions. We appreciate your business.

Sincerely,

Lola Noble
Remi Hairs

I hope you're right. But like I said, I read the thread on BHM that Jenny posted and someone there said the scammer owns beautifulindianhair.com in addition to the others...hopefully the poster is mistaken. Like I said, the prices at beautifulindianhair are good and if the hair is good, then heck...but I don't want to buy from that scammin' skank, period.
Hard to tell.

I totally agree Syren, the prices are fantastic for
beautifulIndianhair- remi hair....no doubt about that!!

I also hope this lady is mistaken about the site........i scrolled
right down the poster and a girl claims this is a friend of hers
and not the Scam Queen. I would just hate to see an innocent
person's business get ruined by being wrongly associated with
this Scammer!! Too many people from other forums are on to
this woman and are wondering why she is getting off with all
this crazy stuff she's been pulling. I guess we will find out
sooner or later..........

Oh - I missed that part of the thread ~ I so hope you're right.
Hey. What do you mean you're going to Vegas...shouldn't you be practicing your braiding technique?! My plastikhaar arrived and it's just asking to be pinchbraided!!
Just kidding. Have a good time!

That's too funny, SAS.

And how about all those photos of Beyonce and Shakira on her site? I assume they're also just "happy customers"....

Yeah right!! I am aware that people use other pics from different
sites, but don't try and make up a fake testimonal with happy
customers!! If you had so many happy customers you wouldn't
have to do this..........::shaking head::

Indeed. My favorite part is the "Madison" testimonial: "I am a customer for life! Madison Manhatten, NY" (so obviously a stock model photo).

I guess "Madison" doesn't know how to spell "Manhattan" (you know, the borough she lives in and all).

Must be convenient that her moniker is also the name of a major NYC thoroughfare.........

This is a Ukrainian website that is selling beautiful European hair........which you will NEVER get!! I personally know someone who ordered $1500 worth of hair and never received her hair or her money back!!!!!

DO NOT BUY FROM THIS WEBSITE!!!!!

THIS PERSON IS ALSO TRADING AT ALIBABA.COM....look up Ukraine Human Hair. His name is Shaplyak Alexander.

Wow! That's an obscene amount of money to lose. Was your friend able to seek any recourse, or was there nothing she could do? I feel like I've seen those ponytail photos a zillion times, too, which is never a good sign. :)
