What makes you say that this outfit isn't legit? If it's just that they don't take major credit cards , they probably have cause for a libel suit against you. Lazarus |

Lazarus Click a link on there site and it doesn't work. 99.9 % of reputable businesses in the world (especially online ones) take CC's or paypal or something like that. People that pulls scams will take a wire transfer or money order not send you the product and run. Then they show up again with a different URL. I took a class on internet security in college and this certainly fits the profile. But since you don't believe me. Go ahead and prove me wrong. Place and order, send them money and we shall see.

John I have no dog in this fight, but I'd offer that a legit-looking site with flies at a few bucks a dozen ain't exactly the way most scammers work, especially those from Africa. That said, I am not saying that they are legit, only making the above observation. Now, if they were claiming they had 20 MILLION FLIES!!! from their brother-in-law's cousin, the ex-Minister De La Mouche for His Serene Highness Dubululu Jones, the King of Kenya, who stole them when he was fired and wanted someone REALLY HONEST to help him transfer them to a Swiss bank for a half-share of the loot, providing you put up a mere $10000USD as security... HTH, R ....and as is my policy, no, I didn't visit the site nor do I have any intention of doing so... |
