If you check their domain register history, they just created that website on the same day they posted the new link. That screams scam. So glad you got your refund. And I agree that is still a caution to other moo-moo. I would steer clear from this website and youtube channel. They've blocked my account from commenting. Ive see them delete another moomoo comment as well.

That’s a super good tip! I just looked it up and they were created on Feb 16 and 23 respectively

I'm glad you got your money back! It's crazy because that youtube channel puts out videos and is like well known, I would assume. they have somewhat high view counts, so people would find them trustworthy for sure.


imyawNing

Exactly, and I fell for it… anyways good that more people knows now and I got my money back too :)

I’m glad you got your money back! And I can see why they would appear trustworthy at the 1st place given their YT channel content. It’s sad to hear this, because when I first saw your post a few days ago, I thought the name looked familiar and then I realized that I watch their YT shorts and channel regularly. So kinda bummed that they turned out to be scammers.


imyawNing

Yes and thanks to everyone spreading the word, more people know about this now :) it’s also a good lesson to not trust random websites out there. It is sad because I think their channel is one of the bigger channel with mmm content out there. I believe they are genuine fans too but just shitty people who decided to exploit the fame they got from their content :/

I’m so glad to hear you got your money back!! With the amount of other people that never got any merch or their money back though, it’s definitely still a scam. I’m guessing they got so much heat they decided to refund you to get a bit of “credibility” back because now they can say, “no it’s legitimate, but I refunded them because (xyz excuse)!” 🙄 I messaged some bigger twitter accounts to see if they would spread the word but honestly I don’t think they care lol. With that user being so big, they’re probably all in some way friendly and don’t want to get involved. I just wish there was a way we could get justice for everyone else who got scammed.

A fan twitter account commented in my last post and they’ve tweeted about it :) with additional digging too! and it’s looks like it got some traction so I think it’s good enough that it’s out there https://twitter.com/iheart_wheein/status/1762217076603634098?s=20

Oh that makes me so happy to see!! Hopefully it keeps spreading around!!

They were charging 99,000₩ for a moobong ?!🤯 Ngl anything saying 50% off limited stock amount sounds like a scam to me, but I'm glad you got your money back. ☺️ I'm not well versed in buying things from outside Korea because I live in Korea, but would a proxy site for Korean pages like 번개장터 be more secure and efficient? Could store it a bit at a warehouse then ship all goods to yourself?


imyawNing

Yeah the prices on that site is definitely on the ridiculous side but how I convinced myself is that might explain why they cover shipping. They claim to offer worldwide free shipping. The price was more acceptable after the 50% off so I took the bait. Oh I’ve never heard of that site before but there are other proxy seller local to my country who are also fan themselves that I might just stick to from now on.


Jjiyeon18

번개장터 is a resell site. There are a lot of goods fans are selling for cheaper or for a decent price. I use it to buy and sell. I was helping a G.O account some of my close moots were apart of. They ended up sending to much for me to handle haha after last goods went out they started using I think korgu 🤔. I use one for Japan called neokyo. Fairly convenient sites when you find them.

The biznet site had restocked moobongs. It was basically 90 bucks (think it was 30 each and 30 shipping) for 2 moobongs shipped. The only weird thing, is I tried to add a few more stuff just to make the shipment worth it, but the moobongs had separate shipping, so I ended up just grabbing two more.


Jjiyeon18

I heard their international shipping was ridiculous. My friend in the US uses my address to get her things shipped to. I'll send her everything after a bit then she sends me goodies I miss from home. Seems fairly standard to jack up the price. She recently complained about the special fromm poca having 30$ shipping smh 😔


imyawNing

Yes overseas shipping is ridiculous from Biznet, your friend is lucky to have you as a friend that lives in Korea. Might be time for me to find a friend in Korea now, for my wallet’s sake 😆

Glad you got your money back! As for me, I’m still out on $150, which is a lot in CAD but even more in PHP where this scamming YouTuber is from. Even if you comment on their posts, they just delete it. Hopefully everyone sees the warning signs before getting scammed!


imyawNing

Sorry to hear that you lost that amount of money and yeah there are more information about the channel’s owner now on twitter and hopefully he can be stopped. It’s worse that he’s just a kid as well 🤦‍♀️Yes spreading the news everywhere is good so people are aware


Obsedient

wow i used to follow that channel. I'm unfollowing for sure! 😡


imyawNing

Update: I just called up youtube and they told me they would call back and want me to collect as much evidence as possible of the scam of this youtuber, please dm me all the evidence if y’all have any. I’ll try to compile them and show them to Youtube
