Hi. One of my Friends wanted to buy a Computer from Alienware, but the Money should be transferred to two different bank accounts on different institutes.

So he put the legal department from the company where his mother is working (NEC, i think you know because of Screens or something), and they found out that they have 200 complains in cause of not sending the Computers after Transferring the money.

I wanted to ask you if you think its still clever to send them money or its better to get the Computer from somewhere else.

That sounds shady. ARe you sure your goiing thru the OFFICIAL AlienWare Company and not a third party selling them?

I'm very confused about what you are saying here.

I've never heard of anyone having problems with Alienware, but then again I don't know too many people that buy from them. So Why would he have to transfer the funds that way? Why isn't he able to just transfer it directly to Alienware, since you are in germany, I will assume your friend is, and that might be the reason for that.

But really, I don't see why you can't transfer it directly to Alienware, unless you were purchasesing the computer through a middle man.

He offered throug inet on www.alienware.de, and hes mother got a mail with the 2 different bank accounts so she checked it out... but maybe they can make deal with alienware (just for beeing sure the Computer will be delivered) that first alienware sends the PC and then they transfer money... we'll see
