If you lost money in any scam like Crystal Sands Tourism, you can recover money in the below ways. Most of the victims stop trying after being redirected(kicked) from one station to another and multiple refusals. However below are the effective ways to recover money.

  1. Cyber Crime Police Doha Qatar(Second Entrance): A complaint written in Arabic addressed to CID. Go with Family. The resolution is relatively quick. Some officers might redirect you to Capital Station, however, tell them payment was made using a credit/debit card and not by cash. If cash was given instead of a card below are the options. Go between 8:00 to 10:00 AM (The earlier the better). Head officers will be on leave during weekends.

  2. Public Prosecution (West Bay) A complaint written in Arabic addressed to CID. Go with Family. The resolution is relatively quick.

Dear All,

I came to know crystal sands team left from the country.. now they left the country.. we all lost our money.. i called to the bank for charge back.. but as per bank they accept disputes wirhin 6 months period..

Whoever have transaction within 6 months apply for disputes.. as their office is close they will not able to send necessary documents like agreement id copy charge slip to the bank.. and bank has to accept your charge back.. it takes around 4 weeks to get your refund on cards..

PS- your card must be visa or mastercard.. irrespective of debit or credit..

How to request a chargeback

If asking the merchant for a refund didn't work, request a chargeback with your credit card issuer. Many card issuers let you dispute transactions by phone, mail or online. You may also be able to submit a dispute directly through your card issuer's mobile app.

When you submit a chargeback, you may need to include supporting documents, such as copies of a receipt, invoice, contract and any communications you had with the merchant. Anticipate that the dispute can last up to 90 days or two billing cycles, whichever is shorter.

Once you submit a chargeback request, the exact process varies depending on your card issuer, network and situation, but generally results in some back-and-forth between various parties. Here's an example of how the process may go, according to Experian:

You file a chargeback request.

Your card issuer reviews the dispute and will decide if it's valid or if you have to pay. If your issuer accepts the dispute, they'll pass it on to the card network, such as Visa, Mastercard, American Express or Discover, and you may receive a temporary account credit.

The card network reviews the transaction and either requires your card issuer to pay or sends the dispute to the merchant's acquiring bank.

The merchant's acquiring bank takes one of two actions: Sends the dispute back to the card network and says the issuer is at fault or forwards the dispute to the merchant.

If the merchant gets it, they either agree to pay for the transaction or dispute the chargeback.

If the merchant disputes the chargeback, there may be more back-and-forth as the merchant, acquiring bank and card issuer try to settle the matter. But if the merchant agrees to pay, the process is a bit smoother.

At the end of the day, the card network decides who pays. A successful dispute will deem the temporary credit you received to become permanent.

This is only way to get refund.. dont waste your time and call the bank and raise disputes..

Money is a moving item, just use it as a traveler. Forgive and forget those simple souls. It is all natural to look at others money.

None of the Crystal Sands tourism employees use their real name. Once they run away like other tourism companies none of the victims will have a name/QID/Passport number to register a complaint. Most of the names are borrowed from fake call centre scammers.

How to spot Employees of Crystal Sands masquerading here and commenting as satisfied customers in QL?

They post comment on weekdays and take weekends off- as bullying cheated customers on online forum is their job role.

How to spot actual cheated customers?

They come online anytime as they are agonized and felt cheated of their hard-earned money.

Rules simple..
