User Experience:
Please do not indulge in any type of business activities with this supplier PHANKIM TRADING AND SERVICE COMPANY LIMITED aka PAKI CO., LTD from vietnam. Nguyen is the owner of this company. Cell #: +84939883988. Website: http://www.phankim.com.vn/
He offered us LDPE rolls and clearly mentioned that this is 100% LDPE with no other material mixing or lamination. Before making advance payments, I repeated inquired him about laminations such as EVOH/EVA/PA etc but he told me that this is pure LDPE with no mixing.
We paid him 30% advance payment (USD 4,500) against his proforma invoice which clearly mentioned that the material is 100% LDPE prime rolls dated March 24, 2017. The origin of material was USA. After receiving the container loading pictures, we could clearly see that there was something wrong with the material and my doubts were that the rolls are laminated. I used my personal contacts in USA since we are working in the plastics field for the last 25 years. I was able to gain access to the actual supplier/warehouse owner who informed us that the material they loaded for PHANKIM TRADING AND SERVICE COMPANY LIMITED to be sold to us was HDPE ROLLS WITH EVOH and not LDPE rolls and they invoiced PHANKIM COMPANY that the material is HDPE ROLLS WITH EVOH.
The scammer Nguyen (owner of PHANKIM) changed all the invoices and packing list material description to LDPE rolls. For evidence, I shared all the invoices, packing list, emails and whatsapp conversation of PHANKIM COMPANY with USA direct supplier and they have also blacklisted PHANKIM COMPANY for manipulating the invoices and packing list and intentionally deceiving the buyer.
He is a big cheater and operates different company email addresses alone and would send you numerous offers to reflect that his company is big and got contacts in USA and Europe.
We lost our USD 4500 but its now my responsibility to inform all of you who are looking forward to work with this PHANKIM Company.
Further, I am willing to share all the evidences and challenge this company on any forum.
