February 22, 200620 yr comment_87754 Hi forum A few days a go a new customer emailed our sales dept and enquired prices for DVRs, Optical Smoke Detectors, Body Scanners & Colour dome vari focal cameras. Today we received an order for the Body Scanners & DVRs ( 4k ), we've got 3 credit card details and a name & address to deliver to East London. I don't want to look a gift horse in the mouth but I'm smelling a rat here. I remember reading a post here which ran on a bit about a scam but I have searched without finding it. Any advice would be appreciated.

February 22, 200620 yr comment_87755 Its a scam, try processing the cards, I think you will find that 2 of the 3 will be declined, If one gets accepted then contact the card company and let them know you think it is a stolen card and do not send the goods out, I had a phone call from a company called TSI in Telford, they contacted me via a previous post about these scams and described to me exactly what you are saying.

February 22, 200620 yr Author comment_87759 Thank you for quick replies. Ian that link doesn't open up anything ? I just called our credit card company & they have confirmed us that the cards are American and the address in East London is a freight company .
