Just wondering if anyone has received anything from Foxbelle77.
I had a 50g order and lost $800 to her :(
Heard people got the same tracking number but I didn't even receive a tracking number.
-
i just placed a 100g order right before she dissapeared. i thought her 271 transactions was good enough evidence that she wasnt a scammer. hoping she went stealth to expedite all her current orders.
also i cant find her thread anymore either????
-
this is why we don't FE guys. Luckily the first and only time I have been scammed on the road was only for ~160. I almost let it discourage me from this site all together, luckily it did not!

It would have helped if people we're more comprehensive in their packaging analysis. Not that details should ever be used, but there are certain things that are unacceptable (against the rules) and need to be discussed! Handwritten labels for domestic shipments just doesn't add up to me, but it took a long time for people to mention this in her thread.

Finalizing early on such huge orders? Don't FE on anything you can't afford to lose...

Very strange situation, hard to say whether it was a scam or not. I certainly agree with others who have said that the whole 'girl' thing was slightly suspicious, especially with her cutesy name and messages. Stereotyping is wrong and all that but honestly, how many drug dealers do you know that are women? I've only ever heard of one. Could certainly have been a ploy to get people to trust her more. Also, she was trying just a bit too hard to make friends, with her generous samples and overweight orders. My 10g order weighed in at over 11.5g and it was crushed so clearly the weight was intentional. Good business is selling exact weights at good prices and letting the product speak for itself. Thirdly, her pricing structure was far too suspicious. It was something like 17BTC for 10g and 25-26 for 25g? None of the established sellers have such aggressive discounts for bulk orders, even 100g+, look at frank matthews for example. Still, considering the great service and the top quality of the first 10g, I went straight in for a 25g order.
But she cancelled it. Why on earth would she cancel it and give up ~£250 if she was cutting and running? And assuming she wasn't scamming, a lot of the packages sent last week could still be in the system, considering the snow. She was getting loads of orders last week, her feedback was like FE, FE, FE, several times an hour. If none had arrived, there would be far far more posts on the forum. It could be that all we are seeing are those whose packages have been delayed and they're getting nervous. Those who have received their order cant be bothered to post here. But that doesn't explain the apparent duplicate tracking numbers. So, my best guess is:
She started off not wanting to scam, and had a really good connect to high quality product. Her prices were incredible, but still a massive mark up on what it costs to manufacture this chemical, so it's not unfeasible.
Things quickly got out of hand due to her great service and prices, and she accepted more orders than she had product and/or her supply dried up. When she realised, she freaked and shut down her account, automatically cancelling all orders that had not been accepted. But considering that she wasnt going to be selling anymore anyway, she had no incentive other than ethics to reverse finalised orders that she couldnt fulfill, and so tried to fob them off with fake/duplicate tracking numbers.

It's a strange case indeed. A friend bought 10 Grams from her, received it the next day (last Tuesday), was delighted with the product and instantly moved to purchase a further 25 Grams but she told him to leave it until after the weekend as they were swamped with international orders. Now either she's the most conscientious scammer who's ever lived or there's another explanation to this. I'm sincerely hoping for everyone who has coin tied up in this that it's the latter.

What was she selling?

What was she selling?
MDMA. Very good stuff, I managed to get a sample too when she was setting up. No idea what's happening now and I wouldn't want to speculate either.

Kinda glad I procrastinated in setting up my account. I look forward to doing business with more trustworthy vendors

Did she ever give you a tracking number? She said she'd give me the tracking number upon posting but she never did.
I really hope it comes through but I'm doubtful.

I've had 10+ Transactions on the road.
This is the first time I've ever FE and the first time I've been scammed.
Moral of the story is never FE.
-
I was going to order from her to. Glad I waited. Will be ordering from HollyMolly then.

Ordered 2x 10g lots to Australia 17 days ago, neither has arrived. Really don't know what to think but I have lost hope.

same here man fed on the 7th she seemed real genuine and replied to many of my messages,the slow posy
could just be the weather in Uk at the moment,will most likely arrive tomorrow or friday,down under
-
Seems people are still getting packages from when she was last online.
-
moral of the story is never deal with a vendor that requires FE on every single order. if you do take a risk, make sure its with money you can 100% afford to lose.
-
so my package made it through customs! 8) it was posted on the 17th and made it through ISC NY on the 21st
to anyone who hasn't recently done so, check your tracking! i'd like to know if anyone elses package matches these updates, and if it does pm your tracking so we can get this shit sorted out!

ol matey ordered from foxy and got the order bout 2 weeks ago took 2 weeks to oz 1 thing i will say is that some people didnt like the quality as much as they had previously....... but opinions are like assholes.........so who cares
-
I ordered once and everything went perfect.
Seems like she just made everyone FE and ran with the cash.
Was a good vendor, such a shame.
