I'm assuming this is a scam. Well assuming that you haven't *actually* ordered something form them at that price, AND you know where your credit card is, AND you can't remember it being cloned then do bugger all. Why not ring them ? Is the delivery address real? Do you live or work there. These and other questions can be answered quite simply . -- - - Robbo 1500GL 1988 Goldwing (Rebuild in process) BotaFOF #19 E.O.S.M 2001/2002/2003 B.O.S.M 2003 FURSWB#1 KotL YTC449 PM#7 \= /= \= / /= \ \= / /= \\\' , / // \\\//, / //, \_-//' / / /<, \ /// <//` / >> \\\`__/ /,)-^>> _\` \\\ (/ \\ //\\ // _//\\\\ (( ((
The phone number rings out and the email bounces. The postcode doesn't exist. Its been doing the rounds , with loads of people getting the same thing. -- Alex SRX 400 "I laugh in the face of danger" "Then I hide until it goes away" www.drzoidberg.co.uk
Cheers. I thought as much. Currently holding on the server, I'll let Mailwasher have it to play with.
Ah , just seen on another newsgroup that when the phone number is eventually answered it turns out to be a police station in cambridge. -- Alex SRX 400 "I laugh in the face of danger" "Then I hide until it goes away" www.drzoidberg.co.uk
Indeed. Prize for the most novel use of spam goes to a 21-year-old from St Neots. http://www.theregister.co.uk/content/6/34388.html
