Received a invoice for international clearance, storage fees, airport tax, insurance fee and delivery cost of a 32 kg package. The man you sent it used Braden Express to send the packages from Memphis, USA, to South Africa.

Braden Express wanted an immediate/instant payment for all of the above fees. Their banking details kept changing from Capitec, to ABSA and lastly Standard Bank. Under the names B. Wilkinson and H. Ewart. When I checked suddenly the Capitec account does not exist anymore

I've checked the website, the pictures of their CEO's appear to be random images from the Internet.

The guy who told me he is sending the packages says he is from Memphis (same place as Braden Express's address), but when I do a reverse image search on Google he appears to be a Ukrainian guy. Claimed to be a widowed Portuguese man working in the USA as an Estate Agent coming to South Africa to open a new branch on Tinder.

Braden Express even have a tracking system on their website that is not kept up to date. Their telephone numbers do not work. Their stories via email keeps changing. They are unprofessional when communicating via email.

They know my exact home and work adress and I fear for my own and my families safety.

I have used all my money to pay for these packages that I still have not received since 10 October 2023. My own stupidity.
