Shipping Scam: Email request to purchase large order for international shipping, pay with credit card with instructions for our company to contact a shipping company of their choice for quote. We were to pay the shipping company once the customer paid with a credit card (stolen credit card). Fortunately we did not complete the transaction. Since then we have received a few follow up emails and phone calls. This morning we are getting calls from a new number 614-859-8584 (Majic Jack is on caller ID)
