Just got an email... Seems like one of those banner scams again! Anyone get the same email? From Brian Moore (bmooore55@gmail.com)

Anytime we get an email from a free email address (@yahoo.com,@live.com,@outlook.com,@gmail.com) looking for high quantities, are asking us if we accept credit cards, and always pick up the order with their own trucking company are usually scams.

I reply to them that I'd be happy to help. But since they are a new client I need a cash deposit, and will meet them at a Starbucks of their choosing.

Been getting a lot less of the scam requests since I've been doing that. Must all come out of the same place.

We use a pat reply when we suspect a scam. This one is for an email with an overseas address.

"Hello
Thanks for your request.
All overseas orders must use our shipper and must ship to the address of the credit card billing statement unless prior arrangements are made in writing, including credit verification.

Kind regards,"
