- The look-alike parcel pics which she had sent to the different victims.
- The BANK ACCOUNT NO. 186-09962-1
- The email correspondence.
- The sudden closing down of k-sayuri.blogspot.com and her email account.
- Who is Melina with the contact no. which always gets a permanent engaged tone?

1. The Look-Alike Parcel Pics
Why does:
- The parcels seemed to look similar to each other if there are so many different customers? So coincidence that the customers bought the same stuffs?
- The dents and bumps in the parcel fall in the same places for all the so-called different parcels?
- She wrote the address on a piece of paper and then stick it on? Isn't it more convenient if she had written the address directly onto the parcel?
- The stamps and address slip doesn't look like it's been stick on the parcel?
One customer had bought 5 bags and her parcel pic is one of the pics shown above. Can the brown parcel really fit in 5 bags? You be the judge........

Pictures from Diana's Personal Blog @ http://ambrosial-love.blogspot.com/
Notice that the resolution of the pictures taken from her personal blog looked similar to the ones taken in the parcel pic? Even the flooring tiles are the same!

A case of stolen identity? Or was it DBS mistake in creating a duplicate account no. for 2 different persons? You be the judge.....
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The Bank Account used for the scam was also used as a business transaction account
Evidence found in a local forum:
She purchased 2 sachet of fibrena from Diana, total of $7 mailed.

3. The Email Correspondence & 4. The sudden closing down of the website and email account
Refer to these email correspondence between a victim and the scammer on 19th March 2009, the day the scam website and the email account was closed down:
Email Correspondence #1
You mean if you migrate, you can't access your gmail webmail anymore? Why the sudden closure of the email account?
She mentioned that she'll be setting off in the afternoon by Qantas QF6. However, there was no afternoon flight on 19 March 2009 for Qantas QF6. There was only an evening flight at 7.30pm.
Email Correspondence #2
Victim's quote (from a local forum):
"She also emailed me at midnight one.. I also emailed her asking her "you mean 5 bags can squeeze inside this envelop and why is the stamp not stick.. "after i send she have forward those auto email saying what clearance say ended buy from other supplier just like her blog la. And i replied back can you reply and stop forward those mail and reply my question..
her answer was: "i had removed excess plastic wrappings n squeeze into the big wrapping paper.. i used glue.. the side corners maybe nt as well sticked.. those dried stamps courtesy from my ex partners.. my apologies if using glue offended u.. sorri.."
Dried stamps? You mean those local stamps come in dried form, I thought they are only available in sticker form for that design? Either she's brainless or just simply too lazy to think of a better answer coz she did not even stick the stamps onto the envelope in the first place.
I shall salute those who can show me a dried form of the same design local stamp which she used for the parcels.

5. Who is Melina?
Who is this Melina whose contact no. never seemed to get through? On the very last day of the scam, 19th March 2009, this post about Merlina was published. It stated that Melina will be handling all last minutes purchases and packages, and even included a contact no. which kept going to a permanent engaged tone. The blog was closed down shortly after this post was published. Why the trouble to provide so much fake details to gain our trust?
