multizoneav.eu Review - Is it a con? Cheap Canon 5D2 for £865

Many people are asking about multizoneav.eu and a review of their website. Firstly multizoneav.eu and multizoneav.net are nothing to do with multizoneav.com which is a legal, legitimate UK company that sells electronic equipment. Their name has been used by overseas scammers to trick you into parting with your cash. Their website offers cameras such as the Canon 5D Mark2 for £865, Canon 550D for £383 or the Nikon D700 DSLR camera for £857. They then show a further 5% discount on these already ficticious prices. Beware - these are not genuine and you will never receive these cameras!

So why does a review of multizoneav.eu and multizoneav.net show that it is a scam and a con?

1) The website  has only been running for a month (registered June 2011)

2) They do not accept valid forms of electronic payment such as Visa/Mastercard or Paypal and only accept payment types that cannot be traced and are easily laundered.

3) You cannot buy cameras such as the Canon 5D2 for under 50% of the UK price. This is cheaper than Canon can produce them for.

4) They are passing off as the name of a genuine business in an attempt to trick consumers into buying from them. This is a common scam and has been carried out many times before on different businesses.

Thank you for that advice. You have just saved me wasting over £600 on a Canon 7D! I thought it was too good to be true but looked up Multizoneav and found some reviews dating back from 2006. I wanted to pay by Credit Card so that I would be insured should there be any problems but this payment method was "not available at this time" so I was seriously considering paying by Bank Transfer. Glad I didn't now. Thanks again! M.Jukes

Glad the informatio about Multizoneav.eu was some use and it stopped you getting scammed. Using the name of an existing company is a sneaky way to attempt to get credibility for their rip offs.

Thanks for the feedback. The scammers have also tried to leave feedback but seemed to forget all the messages left about them on other forums saying how people have sent off money and never received any goods!

Thanks for this info. I was close to ordering a laptop having read various reviews for the legitimate UK based Multizone. The fact that there was no contact details and you couldn't pay by card rang an alarm and luckily I found your site, so thanks for posting up this info and saving me £600 or so.
