I am a realtor in Blainville, Quebec. I recieved he same request to purchase revenues property with the following words:
"I have been to the area last year and liked the location. Understand that I and my wife are OK with pictures and information we have seen so far as we would like to initiate the purchase process from China before we arrive in Canada before the end of next month.
This for we would not like to lose the property.
I am in China at the moment and hope to be in Canada next month.
The revenues property would be a cash buy as I have attached a scanned copy of my bank statement for your reference.
I would like to settle an up front deposit of $15,000 and close middle July.
.....etc"
Mr Cheung provided a copy of his passport with photo ID and a copy of his bank statement with the Customer Id number 119901.
If you, the bank, require this to either confirm this person is legitimate or a fraud please contact me with an email.
We had an accepted promise to purchase and he had accepted to make a non refundable deposit of $15,000, but after the promise to purchase was accepted, he required a name of a lawyer to do the wire transfer which I provided to him, but he never communicate with the lawyer and never did the wire transfer.
If you need any information, please call me at 514-703-4159.
Be very careful.

My broker also received an identical cash offer (with a $15k deposit) for a property in Ontario from Kin Hang Cheung. The scammer even signed and returned an Agreement of Purchase.

My realtor has also received a similar request to buy our property in Ontario, with virtually the same wording. I am thankful for finding this info after googling Chueng's name. My question is, "What is the bank doing about this?"

He tried to get us, too. We have a house in DE listed on Owners.com. The email we received is EXACTLY the same as Sarah J's in #11. We were to the point where we were going to send him a contract to complete and give him our account # to wire $ to (making sure he couldn't get any from us). The bank told me to beware of The $30,000 Scam, where someone "accidentally" wires $30K instead of $15K, and then asks you to wire the $15K back, thereby acquiring access to your bank account. So glad I did a Google search on this guy!!

I am a Realtor in Ontario, Canada.
I have received several emails from Kin Hang Cheung in the past week, all inquiring about a 42 acre property that I have listed, that he and his wife apparently want to buy. The last email was exactly, word for word, the same as the one sent to Sarah J. in Arkansas., and included a copy of his bank statement. Obviously this is a scam.....but what is he gaining? has anyone else sent any money?

I am A REALTOR in SW MIchigan. All of the above comments appear to relate to circumstances that are occurring here from the same customer ID number and same name with bank statement attached, with unusual requests related to a CASH purchase of real estate in Michigan. The attorney I contacted sent me this link and it has certainly raised our skepticism and awareness to the probable and potential fraud obviously being attempted in many places. If we all report and share our concerns perhaps we can assist in putting a stop to unkind and unwelcome confusion and distractions as it relates to selling property. A true CASH buyer is happy to deposit a hard wire CASH transfer to a Title Company and does not request "attorney escrows" with stock broker assistances. A buyer with questionable terms and requests certainly is a "buyer" to beware of.
I am grateful that others have posted here and I would hope that the banking institution in question (Bank of China Don Cheng, etc) is making efforts to find and stop this from occurring further. I will report and pursue further this situation to others and the authorities and encourage others affected to do the same. Spread the word folks, BEWARE and question question question!

He states he knows the area and he and his wife are wanting to purchase one of my listings valued at 1,200,000. Please confirm him as

Is he a legitimate client of your bank?
