Scam Alert Alaskan Closeout Importers - Alon Friedman of Boca Raton

I ordered a black netbook from this company. When I got it it was broken. I tried to call for help and was forced to buy a warranty before I could send it back.

After I purchased the warranty, which I thought it had 1 year. The guy hung up on me. They don't return emails. And hang up on me whenever I call.

After doing some reseaerch, this is just the latest scam that this guy named Alon Friedman of Boca Raton. He has a long scam history

I found this article here:


Have you seen this Artist"? Alon Friedman of Boca Raton, FL
and his wife Perel Friedman operate a company called Pro Photo Nation, Inc.

They have conned thousands of dollars from unsuspecting customers using the classic "bait and switch" scheme as well as substituting gray market items for the items you believe you are paying for.

In researching this con man's past we found that the apple does not fall far from the tree. His mother, Merle Friedman scammed other unsuspecting Orthodox Jews of millions of dollars. She served 2 years in a Federal Prison before being deported to her native South Africa.

Here is a question she posted to the web site JustAnswer.com detailing her sad dilemma:

My name is Merle Friedman I was convincted of a grand larceny in 2001 and imprisoned for 2 years in a state prison and deported to South Africa in 2003. I have 2 minor children who live with my ex husband. I have rehabilitated and got my life together. My ex has kept my children from speaking or seeing me for 8 years. They desperately want to see me and live with me. Im trying to get back into the US but cannot get a visa. The problem is when I hand in my application to the embassy here once they see I was convicted and deported they throw the papers back at me. My 3 older children as well as my grandchildren all live in the US and are US citizens. All I want is to see and be with my children. Where do I start, I have tried everything possible. Attorneys claim they can help me and I will be able to get into the US, however they want to charge me a fee of $10,000, which is 80,000 South African Rands, its just too expensive for me. Please help me.
