Customer placed an order for a product.
Credit card used to pay for product did not go through. (1st Red Flag)
Customer called back with (2) Credit Cards that appeared to have cleared.
Upon processing the order, our accounting department became suspicious of an order placed with a credit card that would be shipping to a foreign country.
Customer requested that we use their Shipping Company. (2nd Red Flag)
We have notified our "Merchant Services" and will follow thru accordingly.
This is a "classic" SCAM. They pay for the product + shipping, you forward payment for shipping, credit card company "yanks" the money back and you are out the international shipping cost = i.e. $4,490.95.
Quite a chunk of change if you fall for it!!

Since you’re here …
we have a small favour to ask. More people are visting Scamdex and Scamalot than ever but advertising revenues are falling fast and we have no 'product' to sell.
And unlike many informational websites, we haven’t put up a paywall or membership barrier – we want to keep our site as open as we can.
So you can see why we need to ask for your help. Scamdex/Scamalot websites takes a lot of time, money and hard work to keep running. We do this because we
hate to see our fellow humans getting scammed out of their hard-earned money by low-lives.
