Business ProfileforQubex LLC

Dear Better Business Bureau,I was scammed out of $300 by Qubex ************* services in ****** ** on 6/11/2024. I had had a flash drive stolen from home on 5/31/2024 by a burglar who left a duplicate dummy flash drive in the same room which had no data on it and was bent. On 6/7/2024 I brought the bent flash drive to ************* of Qubex ************* with the idea in mind that he was a legitimate technician. He is a scammer. On 6/11/2024 I paid Mr ********* $300 cash for recovered data onto another flash drive. What I did not know was that I had been scammed as the burglar, my brother ******************* had been colluding with Mr ********* and gave him the stolen flash drive taken from my home on 5/31/2024. Mr ********* then copied the stolen data to another flash drive which he gave me. I paid $300 cash for it. I decided to go to Qubex after Mr ********* told me that he did not charge any fee to diagnose the drive to determine the cost to recover the data which can range anywhere from $150-$1200. 2 other data recovery shops told me that they did charge a fee and that the data recovery process would take weeks and or months with shipping across the **. The *** online says: "If it sounds too good to be true it is."Mr ********* was aware that the flash drive I dropped off on 6/7 was bent with no data. He emailed me a phony youtube.com video showing him meticulously working on this flash drive on 6/8 to deceive me that this is what I was paying for. He just copied stolen data to a flash drive and sold it to me. That is fraud. He appeared embarrassed when he returned the disassembled parts to the original flash drive after I requested it. He had disassembled the flash drive overnight when I requested it on 6/12 and gave me the parts in a baggie on 6/13. He disassembled the flash drive overnight to make it appear as if he had done the meticulous work in the video. He did not. I was scammed.
