Many in the bodybuilding community shop for anabolic compounds through offshore sources due to the [il]legal standing of anabolics in the US. Many Euro countries allow for the OTC purchase of anabolic steroids which has supported a cottage-industry of AAS dealers who cater to the US bodybuilder. Some of these dealers are legitimate, many are not. This blog will serve as a warning to the community of the unscrupulous dealers.
ALINSHOP.IN
alinshop.in is run by "Alin" and "Michaela" which we assume to be aliases; but no matter, as we have no surname for him/her. The scam is run through their website: http://www.alinshop.in/, ostensibly to provide AAS to bodybuilders; when in fact nobody receives what they order.
You order through his retail website and send payment via Western Union. Payment is sent to Moldova to one of his couriers. You receive an email confirmation once the WU is received, and within a week you receive post-tracking notification if the service is paid by the buyer.
The postal-tracking numbers are useless; either they track null, or they show movement within Romania or Moldova, BUT NEVER LEAVE EITHER COUNTRY. Michaela/Alinshop run the goods, or empty packages for all we know, around various mail drops in Romania, but always terminate back at alinshop.in.
Alin/Michaela run email diversions with one or more excuses:
1) Tracking doesn't work... the PO system is useless, please be patient [months will pass]
2) We sent you package unregistered... please be patient. Are you sure none of your neighbor's intercepted the package? [Yea, come to think of it, my neighbor looks pretty swole!].
3) It was seized on its way out of my Country. Please be patient and I will resend. [Eons pass]
Alinshop.in employs dozens of aliases who scour the bodybuilding lists to shill as satisfied customers and to quell any detractors. There is one site in particular which harbors many AAS-dealers, but it's obviously operating an elaborate scam, as the vast majority of dealers listed are outright FRAUDS.
I will be posting testimonials of those duped by these fraudulent dealers. Please steer clear of Alin/Michaela and http://www.alinshop.in/

OK - here is the deal. This guy sends my first order - it was only $287.00 USD. Great products and I receive in 3 weeks to U.S.A. - the tracking number works and I can see the package literally traced to my doorstep! NOW - I place a 2nd order immediately after receipt of 1st order on July 8th 2011 - today is Sept. 14th and nothing. The tracking number they gave for the 2nd order did not exist or would not pull anything up. Ironically this 2nd order was over $400 USD. Now they are telling me that they will resend via unregistered mail. These guys scam you - pure and simple. They send the first order to bait you - then they don't come through after words. The people that do receive their orders consistently must be people they have strategically chosen to spread the "good word" that they are "NOT SCAMMERS" when in fact - they are SCAMMERS! This is utter BS! I don't know how the hell steroidencyclopedia.com can endorse such a scam shop. They will take you for your money - YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!
