Who called from 7183032156

Also received an Avon "request for contact" from [email protected] with the name Terry Cox and this phone number.  Of course my instant reaction in scam and I googled this phone number.  It's interesting that the person is stating credit card when they usually will send a money order.  I think they're catching on that no one will do a money order for that amount.  I really hope no one has had their credit card number stolen to be a victim of these jerks.

DO NOT ORDER ANYTHING.  THIS JAMES LORD CHARACTER IF THAT'S EVEN HIS NAME, IS PART OF A HUGE SCAM.  MY WIFE IS AN AVON REP AND THIS JAMES LORD GUY JUST TRIED TO ORDER $1,634.40 WORTH OF AVON PRODUCTS AND HAVE IT SHIPPED TO OUR HOME.

REST ASSURED THAT IT IS A SCAM.

I ACTUALLY JUST REPLIED TO HIM AND TRIED TO GET HIM TO BECOME A CHRISTIAN THROUGH SOME HEARTFELT CHRISTIAN EVANGELISM.  THAT SHOULD KEEP HIM AWAY AS HE PROBABLY ISN'T EVEN AN AMERICAN.

That message is almost identical to the one that we just got except that it was 60 bottles of the haiku and 50 bottles of the spray.  Rest assured that it is indeed a scam.

Just for kicks, send him/her a message about how important it is that they change the direction of their lives through belief in Jesus Christ.  That would be cool if we all replied with a message like that.  :-)

YES IT'S A SCAM.

I am also an Avon Rep and received the same request for 240 units of fragrance as Christine did from a Terry Cox. I received two diferrent emails : one stating that she wanted to place an order for her daughters graduation and then another about needing christmas presents.
I live in California and placed an ad on Facebook so I assumed the order came about from that. Well, I got the feeling that it was a scam, it would total over $5,000. I did some research after this person sent 2 credit cards upon which to split the order up and a billing address in Ossining, NY. I looked up the address only to discover that this person DOES NOT live there. Next, I considered getting the authorities involved suspecting credit card fraud because of the request to have them sent to my home and then she'd arrange pick up via USPS.
I really knew something was amiss when she totally disregarded my questions and didn't just go to the Avon site and do direct delivery. I also tried calling the number they provided and got the voicemail, no one ever answered AND the voicemail voice had an English accent. I'm glad my internal alarms went off.

I just got the exact same e-mail. Wow, no business is safe from these scammers. Thank you for posting this.
