On 1 March 2005 I visited the Busysky.net web site to purchase 6 airline tickets. My credit card was rejected on the grounds that the web site could not get an authorization from the bank. I was asked via email to complete a Wire Transfer to an account at the Bangkok Bank.

Later on that day I requested the cost of a further 6 tickets via email. On 2 March 2005 I received via email the amended amount to send. On 3 March 2005 I instructed my bank to carry out a Wire Transfer to the Bangkok. Details of the receiving account were as follows:

Bank name: Bangkok Bank

Account number: XXX98

Beneficiary: Pakanan Paungpaoi

SWIFT Code: BKKBTHBK

Bank Branch details:

Khlong Toei

Bangkok 10110

Thailand

On 10 March 2005 I emailed the company asking about my non-receipt of tickets or information. They did not respond. I also emailed the Bangkok Bank as to whether the money had been credited to the subject account. On 14 March 2005 the Bangkok Bank informed me via email that my money had been credited to that account on 4 March 2005. I also emailed Busysky again asking about my tickets and have not yet received a reply or any

tickets.

On 21 March I received information from the Bangkok Bank via a FAX from my Bank that most of the funds had already been withdrawn from that account. I was also asked to contact the account holder, a female, directly and Mr Kalin Dikov who is her boyfriend for clarification at Tel. 006695254259 and 00359888269234. I called Mr Dikov, who is based in Bulgaria, on his mobile number 00359888269234 and spoke briefly to him. He seemed to be taken by surprise when I mentioned that I was enquiring about my airline tickets and that I had been given his number to contact him. He was about to give me his email address but he hung up on me. I already knew a couple of email addresses for him so I emailed him immediately.

On 23 March 2005 I received the following reply from Mr Dikov but he denied knowing anything about my tickets and mentioned that a Danish friend of his had something arranged with his girlfriend to accept money into the Bangkok account and then transfer it abroad.

I have since found out that since then two similar web sites have been used for the same purpose of offering cheap fares, namely Flyjumbo.net and Bestflight.net. The bank that Flyjumbo.net is or was using is or was based in America. Details are as follows:

Bank name: Citizens Bank

Account number: XXX544

Beneficiary: KP Communications

SWIFT Code: CTZ1U533

ABA routing: 011500120

Bank Branch details:

Rhode Island
