I Was Scammed, by ordering from a scam website.

I’m sure this isn’t where I should post this, but I’m a new member and just wanted to let people know my experience with HontWatch.
I found Hont watch on this forum, contacted them, ordered a rep Watch. They took my money, sent me a tracking number for a package that went to somewhere in New Jersey, and then was refused. Since then, they’ve never answered or replied to multiple emails I’ve sent them. Buyer beware Hontwatch is a rip off.

Buddy slow down, you're hyperventilating and going about this all wrong. Hont is a VERY long term TD here. There is no chance he's ripped you off.

Just to understand this better:

Please let us know the channels and addresses through which you were communicating with Hontwatch and also give us a little more info about the whole timeframe.

As has been said, TD's are generally trusted for a reason.

I’ll try to post the correspondence with HontWatch.

Most likely I just got ripped by another website. DH is on here seem pretty confident in the REAL Hont watch. Not sure I’m willing to try again just yet.

That’s definitely not the correct Hont you ordered from, that’s a scam site. Sorry to see you make an expensive mistake!

Another unfortunate gets caught out. Sorry for your loss.

A mod will be along shortly to change this thread title to something more appropriate, like "I Was Scammed by a Hont Watch Ripoff Site".

I made the same mistake. Crossing fingers something shows up in the mail. In the mean time I'll try to contact the real Hont. Any updates Robdog?

Before I found rwi I did exactly the same thing ,I thought I did my due diligence read up and found Hontwatch to be one of the long time trusted dealers and took the 400 euro plunge .I googled the hont website and not realising that it sent me to the same cloned site you fell for. embarrassing I know but as the good people say dont follow the google links stick to the TDs through this site.There are probably hundreds of newbie s just like you and me and for the long serving members of this site id imagine answering the same questions day in day out must get very repeatative .for me I pm ed the TD through the name next to his aviator,hope this helps.

Thanks. I just messaged the TD. Waiting for a response. Sucks that I'm losing $468 but I'm not going to let it deter me. I'm trying 1 more time.
