OT: Word of warning

Hi,
Don't know if this is in the right section but here goes....

Just a warning to avoid these sites -> www.timboots.co.uk, b2corder.com or runtimberland.com

All of them are run by the same people, offering discounted goods (timberland boots and others), they are conmen. After a month of not receiving my goods I opened a paypal dispute - now their email address has been shut down, as has their paypal account and some of their sites.

They also run some discounted nike stores, all of their stores are big brands at discounts (usually 30 - 50%), buyer beware!

might be just a sign of the times, two company’s I've used in the past appear to be no more due to lack of e-mail replies to get quotes and both were really good. Ones a laser cutting company and the others a classic ford supplier

Could be, but they returned an email when I asked what was going on, they said "we have had problems allocating tracking numbers and are scrutinizing the issue". After asking for a refund their email address went dead!

That certainly smells very strongly of bull plop! Stupid scammers like to put big words into emails to try to sound more convincing; no normal person would use the word 'scrutinizing' in this context.
