Morninglobal.com - Scam?

stefanm · Sep 11, 2023

I ordered some goods from banggood last week, today I get a WhatsApp message from the above "company" asking for KYC documents, seems fishy to me as it's being couriered by Yanwen, which always routes through India post. I had a similar experience last time I ordered through banggood, around 4 years ago. However, back then I did complete the KYC and my products were delivered, it was a different company, my products were delivered through a courier without customs duty or having been inspected.

To me, this seems like a scam and from what I've read on reddit it does appear to be such.

Opinions or experiences?

Man I'm feeling like an idiot, so we just use ebay.com and use india address? Missed so much stuff from Ali express. Will try this at once. Thanks Yes, essentially. @mh09ad5578 Make sure to select item location filter as "Worldwide" and not "Default" when searching.

Based on the replies in the thread:
Use Voter ID. It is the safest. If not, then Lock Biometrics of Aadhar Card and then share the same.
Always use the exact same: email address, Local address, and contact details for ordering. This ensures the Customs Agency has a profile to match and clear orders.
