On July 31st, he had still not sent the Sakura beanie, but did ask if we wanted a refund or wait for the bear. I asked for the refund, which I still want. He keeps telling me he will send it out, and hasn't. On September 25th, he said he would have it in the mail the next morning. I have since sent him notes asking if he did indeed send it out. He has not responded to one of them. This is ridiculous. I have dealt with alot of E-Bay buys and they've all been great. Now this! Please help. I just want my money back.

Bought a pre-sale Sakura Beanie in an auction on Ebay in March with a ship date of July 31st. Even though he has answered my E mails and I did agree to wait until I asked for a refund recently. Now I have no refund, no beanie and he no longer has an E mail address. My E mails are coming back. He owes me just a little under $100.00. Please can anyone help get our money back...Thanks Sandra Roberts

Won a Pre-Sell Auction on Ebay  # 290186660 and paid by check for 2 Sakura's. Was told by Tamam refund would be in the mail the week of 9/16/00. I am still waiting on my money as are many others. I will be contacting the Attorney General in my area and New Jersey to file a complaint. In additions the FBI has an Internet Fraud site (www.ifccfbi.gov)to file a complaint. As of October 1, 2000 his hotmail address is no longer valid. I sent another request for my refund and it was returned undeliverable. I want my money back.   KD Brown

At this March, I purchased 2 Buddies from Tamam Ahmad, Hackettstown, NJ. And they reached me safely. I noticed e-mails from Tamam & Yusra are very similar, and they are both in Hackettstown, NJ. Thanks for CautionList, I noticed Tamam Ahmad and Mohammed Kheiralla (who was thrown out from eBay) are the same person! And I noticed Hani Kheiralla (Mohammed's brother) vs Yusra Hasan are the same person. eBay has Yusra's phone #: 908-637-6929 - this is Hani Kheiralla's phone #!

I'm afraid i need your help again,I won an auction from a Yusra Hassan on Ebay (playball_13@yahoo.com) on the 28th August,I sent her a total of $88 via bidpay. She claims my parcel was mailed on the 8th Sept,I have not received anything.She has now been suspended by ebay and is not replying to my mails. I managed to get her info from ebay,it is as follows,I have tried calling and have had no luck as yet,

E-mail: [playball_13@yahoo.com]
User ID: [playball_13@yahoo.com]
Name: [Yusra Hasan]
Company: [None]
City: [North Bergen]
State: [New Jersey]
Country: [USA]
Zip: [07047]
Phone: [(908)637-6929]

I would appreciate your help once again Many thanks,  Kate

Hi Kimberly,
First, I am sorry that you too have a very bad experience with Yusra Hasan. I'm in Japan, and luckily, I got refund from him. I got e-mails from people who also have problem with him after I posted neg feedback for him.Did you called him? His phone # is 908-637-6929. The info came from eBay. And I don't think "Yusra Hasan" is his real name. I noticed they were thrown out from eBay at least 3 times! I knew the phone # as above is Hani Kheiralla's phone # who is Mohammed Kheiralla's brother - they both were thrown out from eBay. They came back eBay with different user ID: tamamahmad. You should go to www.traderlist.com and check what they did! And they came back again with another user ID: playball_13@yahoo.com (I think). The list of their victims are go on....I suspect Mohammed/Hani Kheiralla, Tamam Ahmad, and Yusra Hasan are SAME!
They are all located in Hackettstown, NJ.

After I received this information, I did give him a call. He said the beanies still had not been mailed out, but will be Wednesday. Upon being questioned about two previous emails he had sent me stating they would be mailed on the 26th of September, his only response was that he fell behind, but they definitely would go out this Wednedsay October 18. Hopefully, he will follow through with this promise, however, given his history, I seriously doubt that he ever will. Any help would be greatly appreciated!! Thanks,
Kimberly

traders_name: Yusra Hasan

I won an auction for an Employee Buddy on eBay on 18 August on behalf of my 7 yera old daughter. I live in the UK, and at that time it appeared that this buddy was going to be exclusive to the USA. My winning bid was for $16.51 plus $5.00 for shipping. At the time, Yusra had a small number of negative feedback comments, which seemed to relate to a specific period of illness, and, with over 600 positive comments, I felt that this seller was trustworthy. Little did I konw! I sent him $22 in cash. He confirmed that he had received the money on 25 August, and since that time I have been trying to get either the buddy or a refund. Soon after I had sent him the money, I noticed that a huge number of negative comments started to be left for him on eBay. During August and September, Yusra responded to my emails promptly, and kept assuring me that the buddy was on its way, then that it must have got lost and a replacement was on its way. When I saw that he had been suspended from eBay at the end of September, I asked for a refund, which, despite his promises, had never arrived, despite at least 16 e-mails from me. I realise that $22 is not a great deal of money, but I made Yusra well aware in several e-mails that thismoney was my young daughter's money - in fact her pocket money which she had saved up for several weeks so that she could buy this bear. It is bad enough to rip off an adult, but to steal what must seem like a small fortune from a small child just defies description. I have reported this person to the New Jersey Attorney General's office and will be contacting the Hackettstown Police. Yusra Hasan's e-mails bear a striking resemblance to correspondence from the other dishonest traders from Hackettstown- I am sure that they are all connected.

**Update..Dec. 9, 2000
Well, I am amazed and delighted to tell you that an envelope arrived this morning addressed to my daughter, containing a personal money order for $22!!!! The downside to this is that, because the money order is made out in US$, my bank in the UK will charge me over half of that amount to process it!! Still, the important thing is that Yusra Hasan has seen fit to make a refund. I don't know whether this is as a result of police investigations, or the letter that my daughter sent to him asking him to send her back her savings, but I am very glad that she can see that adults can't just get away with stealing from a child. Although I had heard from other people who have been cheated by this person that he had moved, my daugther wrote to Yusra Hasan at the 1Wendy Way, Hackettstown address, and this was the sender's name and address on the envelope we received today. The signature on the money order, however, is certainly NOT Yusra Hasan; it is fairly illegible, but the first name looks to be Tamam, and the surname starts with Khe....(Kehiralla?). Anyway, thank you so much for all your help with this trader; I appreciate your efforts. It is so good to know that there are people like you and your colleagues out there trying to make the internet a better place! THANK YOU

In March of this year I was one of several winners of an auction for a Sakura Beanie Baby. It was eBay #286840160 and I am "nielr". This presale said that Sakura would be shipped by July 31 or a full refund. I have e-mailed Tamam several times since July 31 asking for updates on Sakura. He has kept telling me and the other bidders that he needed more time (two or three weeks). I wanted Sakura so I kept saying ok to the time request. At the begining of October I asked Tamam for Sakura or a refund if he did not have the beanie. Tamam has stoped returning my e-mails since I asked for one or the other. I have asked for the tracking number on the beanie but get no replies. I trusted Tamam and it looks like he(she) has let me down.

I bid on an Ebay auction for presale beanies back in March 00

I have been fobbed off by the seller so many times .......he must have posted at least 5 sets to me .................. and the refund again 5times as Im in the UK there is the delay waiting to the delivery each time he has emailed me with wait another 3 days etc. so now I havent heard from him since the 25th October, I have be desperate to find a way of getting a refund and stumble on this page I sent him a money order for $283 he is in Hackettstown and his email address is as follows tamamahmad@hotmail.com I know it been a while since I made payment to him but if you can help I would be most grateful   Marilyn Moss

I want to let you know I got all 4 refunds from Tamam on 10-28-00 in a postal money order for the $406.00.

I won two auctions on ebay, for a 98 Holiday and Wallace bear, which I have not received. I paid for these beanies almost two months ago!! The seller, Yusra Hasan, has continuously promised the beanies would be shipped, yet never followed through. I finally demanded a refund, which, once again, he promised to send and I have not received. I know many others are having problems with this guy, so I want to try to help out by sharing all of the information that I have on him. His address is 1 Wendy Way, Hackettstown New Jersey 07840 and his phone number is 908-637-6929. He has phoned me and the number which shows up on my caller Id is different from that above, 973-476-6892 and it is out of Morristown New Jersey, not Hackettstown. I have been told by others that have also been ripped off that he has been found to be in connection with others who are also in the "beanie business" that are known to also have the bad habit of taking money yet never shipping the purchased product. The other names being used are Hani Kheiralla, Mohammed Ahmad, and Taman Ahmad, all of which have been suspended from ebay, yet keep coming back under different names.A fellow ebayer informed me that anyone having problems can also get in touch with the Attourney Generals Office in New Jersey where they can speak with Danielle Deaks who is in charge of the consumer protection division. Her email address is Deakd@smtp.lps.state.nj.us. I hope this helps someone out. Thanks.

Well I have been scammed again. This person had a 841+ positive feedback when I made my purchase. Her name is Yusra Hasan (playball_113@yahoo.com) - address: 670 Prospect Ave., North Bergen, NJ 07047 - phone: 908-637-6929. Also has this address to: 1 Wendy Way, Hackettstown, NJ 07840. Can you help with this case to. My auction # is 427439611 on ebay. I have emailed and emailed and don't get any response. I filed a claim with ebay but that doesn't mean a thing. I do believe I will be saying bye, bye to purchasing on the internet.

I was given your mail by another person was was frauded by mr. hasan. I had purchased a few small items from him and though he took a while he did deliver them. Then he offered me to buy six hard to find bears. I accpeted his offer and mailed him a money order for $360usd which is over $500 canadian. He had emailed me saying he got the money and emailed me again saying I would get my bears anytime soon. I never heard from him and when I emailed him on Sunday the email bounced back. Then I find out others he had sold things to and never sent the items. Another source told me he had two addresses going to collect money. The hackettstown police said he claimed bankrupcy. He sold me items that he never had in the first place. He took my money and knew he didnt have the bears to send. Surely fraud cant be covered by bankrupcy law? I cant belive you can fraud people through the mail and iternet and then when your done claim for bankrupcy and be preotected against fraud laws? Can you help me? Ebay sent me a letter saying that they closed his account. that was all they offered. I cant pay back the family and friends that trusted me with their funds. I will have to try to talk to them and find a way to pay these people back. If you caould help me in any way that would be great. Thanks so very much!!! Trish

  I'm really at my wits end and I hope you can help. WAY back I bid on 2 sets of Beanie kids from a seller with the mail address tamamahmad@hotmail.com.  The total came to $240. And because this was a presale, I couldn't claim back my losses on eBay because the 60 days had passed before the neanies were due! If eBay are going to have this 60 day rule in their insurance claims they shouldn't allow presell auctions. I have been in contact with him until now and have been patient with his excuses of missing beanies. I eventually tired of this and asked for a refund which he said he would send. Nothing arrived by the deadline I had given him despite promises stating that I would receive the cheque. Now I'm not getting any responses to my emails at all and don't know what to do. I hope you can help.   Regards  Adrian O'Connor

traders_name: Yusra Hasan Comments: Have never received a Libearty Buddy I paid this person for back in July. Have requested a refund but no reply.

traders_name: Tamam Ahmad Comments: My mother and I purchased a presell Sakura Ty beanie bear to be delivered end of July. No bear arrived, although he claims it was mailed twice. He supposedly had a friend from Maryland send me one that too did not arrive. Then came the refund, that too was sent to me twice apparently. Again nothing was received. He is no longer responding to any e-mails . I am totally at my wits end!! I live in Canada and paid 114.97 in USd. If anyone could shed any light on this situation I would be incredibly

Won presell auction# 293050686 on Ebay 3/29/00. Check was sent for $165.50. Promised shipment by 7/7/00 or full refund. After numerous emails, stating everything from being out of the country to delay in shipping, I have still never received the beanies.

I have kept all of my correspondence up to the last response from him/her on 9/21/00. On 9/22/00, they were turned into Square Trade but they didn't have any luck in getting responses out of this person either.

I'm not sure what the next step should be but wish I had looked on your list first.

Having trouble reaching/finding & getting refund from this ebay seller for a pre-sell auction from Sept 2000. Email is returned as "undeliverable", no longer a registered ebay user, no longer accepting paypal, mail is returned as "not at this address" PLEASE HELP

On August 29, 2000, I had the misfortune to win 2 auctions for 25 new beanie babies from TY from Yusra Hasan on E-Bay. On August 30, 2000, I sent Yusra payment of $139.42 thru Paypal. After numerous months of sending E-Mails and receiving excuse after excuse, now Yusra will no longer respond to any E-mail messages and has been suspended from E-Bay. I wish to file all charges eligible to me against this fraudulent person or persons. Please help!!!

I have just about given up hope!! I did a presale wth him for the March new beanies for about $150.00. Soon thereafter he was suspended. I emailed many times & he kept responding saying they were on their way. Well after months of this I finally asked for a refund & it was supposedly on its way. Well so far no beanies no refund ALOT of lying emails. (I have copies). I was very distressed! I contacted NJ police they couldn't do much! I do have a current address,unless hes moved again! He's not in Hackettstown anymore. There must be something someone can do to keep him from doing this anymore! Please email me with any ideas.The last PObox I found was in Great Meadows NJ.The address was 759 Peaquest Rd. Oxford NJ 07836.

I have previously posted about this person to whom I sent $22 in cash for an Employee Buddy in August. This was my seven year old daughter's money, which she had saved up for a long time so that she could buy this buddy, which was not available in the UK. The buddy never arrived, and Yusra Hasan never sent a refund, despite many, many e-mails. I made formal complaints to everyone I could think of, and of course added my complaint to the bad traders list here. Well, to my amazement, on Friday, 8 December, I received a refund from Yusra Hasan for the full $22!!! The down side was that the refund was in the form of a personal money order, which will cost the equivalent of $15 for our bank to process, but at least I got the refund. I know this person has cheated many, many people, but my persistence has obviously paid off, and my daughter has been able to see that not everyone gets away with stealing. Please, everyone, keep chasing this person - you might be lucky like me and get your money back.

I won an auction on Ebay in March on a Pre-sell of 20 New Beanies to be shipped in July. I still have not received beanies or a refund. I was in contact with Tamam Ahamd by e-mail until late September. I was assured I would receive a refund. I have also contacted his phone number and was told a refund would be coming. I have been in contact with other winners of the same auction that have not received beanies or a refund yet also.

I bid and won a presale auction on Ebay #280240515 Set of 20 new beanies.They have never arrived and I have not had a refund. This person will promise to send a refund, but it never arrives. PLEASE BEWARE, DO NOT SEND ANY MONEY. There are many others who bid on this auction who are like me and still waiting for their money.

I won three auctions through eBay from this man in early September. Since that time, I have received nothing, neither the merchandise nor the refund. I have contacted him numerous times and initially was promised the merchandise. However, in the last four telephone calls all he and some unknown female talked about was a refund. I've been promised a refund for over a month now and have nothing. Please help.

traders_name: Yusra Hasan Comments: I just wanted to give a final update on my trading problems with Yusra Hasan. On 10 December, I posted that he had, to my surprise, sent my daughter a refund for the $22 she paid him for a beanie buddy, but that I would be unable to cash the US $ money order he had sent because our banks in the UK charge up to $15 to process foreign currency transactions. Since then I wrote to Yusra Hasan to ask that he send my daughter a refund in cash instead, but didn't get a response. However, I have now found a wonderful exchange bureau in London where I was able to cash the money order for a very minimal fee, and so we have now finally been able to get our refund paid in full. My daughter has had her faith in human nature restored, and at least this shows that Yusra Hasan has some scruples, and obviously his conscience wouldn't let him cheat a young child. I now consider the matter closed, and hope so much that the others who had lost money from this trader have also had success in getting refunds.
