I just got a fax from Jill Cravens of Truck Consultants Limited asking for a price on 20 HP 12C calculators and 3 Stedman Medical Dictionaries. Over the years we have had a lot of these "opportunities". Most have been from Nigeria or at least out of this country and we were warned a long time ago to be careful so I'm glad I checked it out. So Thanks, Water Boy.
I got a request for quote as well with all the credit card information. The funny thing is, I uncovered a similiar scam several weeks ago and kept them on the hook for several days. The credit card information was actually real and so was the person, they had stolen her identity. I contacted her and she was very relieved.
I just recieved a fax for 500 spark plugs of 7 different part numbers.
This is a scam, that seems to happen quite a bit, they are usually from Nigeria on other scam we get.
I just got a fax for 96 john deere fuel filters and 500 ngk spark plugs from a Dave Firm. It's a Georgia address on the fax. We sell car parts not tractor stuff, so I think it's kinda fishy.
We received a fax over the weekend asking for Cristal champagne. Seemed too suspicious as that's not how we sell wine/champagne. Though the email address and fax were from "Holly Walker" at [email protected]. I've just filed a report with the FCC.
I received a request for 24 bottles of Crystal Champagne. Was immediately suspicious as she said they would send a courier to collect after the credit card payment had gone through. I thought it was a scam and said I couldn't help her.
