This is a known scam site that sells popular gadgets like Apple iPhone 4, iPhone 4S and iPad 2 at a very cheap and irresistible rate. It is no wonder why people still falls for this scam. $600 for an iPad 2? $700 for the latest Apple iPhone 4S?
It tries to cover all angles by implementing a purported delivery tracking website. Providing an explanation on your parcel (iPhones or iPad) delay because the parcel are stuck at custom. The person would even tells you that they had sent you more iPhones then you have purchased. In order for you to get the goods, you would need to pay, say maybe $2,000 more.

M-Techltd.com or M Tech Limited
Apparantly, this website M-TechLtd.com has been posting numerous advertisements on localized Singapore Classified Sites like Locanto.sg, one2sell.sg and so on selling popular electronic products like Apple iPhone 4S, Apple iPad 2, Samsung Galaxy Note and more at irresistable price.
I understand many are very attracted with these stuffs and most people wanted them. The only deterring factor about all these electronics goodies are their price. The purported seller used this weakness and greed in human to conduct their unlawful acts of cheating. That is inducing someone to part with their monies by dishonestly deceiving that they could delivery something that they had no intention or no capacity to provide in the very first instance.

I have heard from a friend that one good friend of his had became a victim of this scam. He transferred some money and only to find that the goods are not delivered. He was given a website that is obviously purportedly created to look like a real delivery tracking site to make things convincing. He was convinced that the parcel was actually on the way. He ordered iPhone 4S. He was contacted subsequently and was told that he needs to pay a few thousands more as his parcel sent was a wrong one which contact more than what he had ordered. Most people stopped at this point suspecting it to be a scam. But there were some that actually went on deeper and made the subsequent payments.
The following is a review that I had found on the Internet to substantiate my claim that this website (M-Techltd.com or M Tech Limited) is nothing but a scam, a cheater.
I have found more than one and to my horror, people are getting scam despite reviews were found on the Internet confirming that this website is indeed a fraudulent one. It took me awhile to actually to find these reviews. I then came to an understanding that these reviews or scam alerts are found in page 3 or 4 of the generated search results. Which means, the more advertisement posts made by this website or the scammer himself had took top positions in the search results of major search engines like Google and Yahoo.
It is not wonder why most people were not able to find anything and jumped right in to their trap by making payments to buying the iPhones or iPads that they will never going to get.
Scammers must start somewhere and it is not surprising that during the initial stage, there would be people who will get what they had bought. But that is only a handful out of thousands of people around the world who were utterly scammed and cheated.
If you were to visit this scam website -
M-Techltd.com, you will find it to be quite professionally designed. The scammer knows how to capture attention and knows where to post his or her advertisement. The following are the contact details which is likely to be some generic location. The phone number could be even to registered to someone else.
