Who called from 2036537970

I had the same type of interaction with this guy.  Only this time he used the name Steve Ludd & Sons and was from Sweden.  The name of the shipping company was call transco.   He gave me 3 different credit card numbers wanting me to charge each one for $2000.00 & below.  He now has a new number and it is 818-235-5597.  Do not take this guy seriously!

I received an email requesting me to email him (Rob Thomas) back with the price, size and method of payment we accept.  I refered him to our website for choosing a gift basket he wanted and he would find pricing and payments accepted.
He selected a gift basket and asked me to send "the grand total cost for 100 pieces plus taxes but excluding shipping".  He asked if we "accept credit card as a form of payment.    "With Kind Regard
Rob Thomas"

Even though this sounded a little fishy I responded that we needed to know where it would be shipped for sales tax purposes and I was curious why he wanted the cost excluding shipping.  I also told him we did accept credit cards for payment.

He responded with "Okey email me back with the grand total cost..."

I responded with a quote for 61 gift baskets because we could not provide 100 of the gift basket he chose.  I also said that "if they will be shipped outside the US we cannot fulfill the order".

He responded with "I'm OK with total cost given ($   .  ) on this order.  Please contact HARBOR SHIPPING COMPANY ([email protected])... with the information below.

Same scam coming through in Colorado, guy wants to order large quantities of battery chargers and pay by credit card.  His name was Mr. Patrick Blanc.  Beware.  Also uses a shipping company which I believe to be fake as well.

Thanks.
