1
Q: Hi,
We entered a contract as a trading company to supply goods to a client in Europe from the supplier company in Vietnam. Terms of sales were FOB. The supplier in Vietnam did not perform and deliver the goods to the client's forwarder.
We have filed a civil case in Vietnam against the supplier to refund the payment made to them or provide the goods. The amount is USD 800,000.
The end client in Europe is threatening to file a case against us in the UAE even though they are fully aware that we have transferred all funds to the Vietnam company.
Under good faith, we kept them updated but now they are impatient and want to recover the money from us saying their contract is with our company and have nothing to do with the supplier in Vietnam.
My queries:
1. Can we place a defence if a civil case is filed against us.
2. What are our rights to defend?

Can I use my baggage allowance to ship my luggage by cargo?
1
Q: Dear Sir/Madam,
My contract mentions that the employee is entitled to excess XXkg of baggage claim or air/sea/land shipment of equivalent cost.
Does this mean that I can convert this to bring my luggage using cargo as long as it does not exceed the same rate as air travel?

What to do if someone impersonated an employee in the company I own and got mobile lines and phones? 0
Someone impersonated an employee in the company I have owned since 2012 and extracted 18 mobile lines in addition to several iPhones.
I was surprised that the company cut off our landline and mobile communications on the pretext that he was monitoring a debt of 167,000 dirhams.
This person was arrested, tried, found guilty, and sentenced to deportation. However, the telecommunications company is still demanding from my company and pursuing me because of this debt that we are not to blame for.
How can this matter be resolved?

How can I refund the amount of online tickets in Dubai for fraudulant misrepresentation? 0
Last Friday, I was booking tickets for the Miracle Garden on some Dubai tickets website, and on the OTP page, it showed 225 to be paid on my phone. The otp was added automatically, and I couldn't read the message properly. It turns out 4,225 got deducted from my account.
I immediately called the bank, and they said they can't reverse the transaction, fill out the dispute resolution form, etc. Even tho the transaction was in process today, the transfer shows complete.
Is there a way to get it back?
I registered an online complaint with the Central Bank and cybersecurity. I really need the money with my rent coming up, please guide me.

How can victims file a group case for fraud, bounced cheques, and misuse of credit cards? 0
Hello,
I would like to ask for legal advice regarding a fraud case in Abu Dhabi involving multiple victims. The suspect issued bounced cheques, received AED with a promise to exchange it into IDR but failed to deliver, misused other people’s credit cards, and operated an unlicensed travel/tour business.
Many clients paid for Umrah or vacation packages that never happened. The total loss is significant, and many victims have evidence such as WhatsApp chats, bank transfers, and bounced cheques.
We believe this involves a breach of trust and embezzlement. We would like to know if we can file a group case, what legal steps to take, and the cost of legal representation.
Thank you!
