    Beware of Bingo Cameras in New York. They’ll literally switch. They sent me a totally different camera and refused to give a full refund.

    I was a victim of this kind of scam years ago and learned my lesson. If the price seems too much cheaper than you find it everywhere else, it’s usually as SCAM!!!! My advice is for people to go to reputable companies like amazon, overstock, bhphoto, or newegg. If you go to a place that you’re not sure about, search for customer reviews of their site on google. I’ve found many angry customer reviews after doing this and they all describe the same scam. BAIT AND SWITCH. Be careful people.

    HD Camera World does the same thing. Fraudulent retailer. Bait and switch and the company uses four other names. They are awful.

    MDG Computers Canada is a good example of this. I’ve read countless complaints about how they swap new computer parts with ones that are of less quality and at least 2 years outdated. Upselling is also one of their strengths. I have never bought or even considered buying from MDG and never will.

    MDG is complete garbage. I can’t help but LOL at their ads. By the time you pay off that “dollar a day” computer lease agreement, the piece of shit system will be long dead.
