I received an email from Andy Cole. This is what it said: "My name is ANDY COLE,the purchasing manager of Goods Planet Ltd.Am interested in purchasing some of your products, Which i will be picking them up from your location to AUSTRALIA. I also want you to know my mode of payment for this order is via Credit Card (MASTER or VISA)..More-also Provide me with an attachment of your product price list available on your shelf now then i can get back at you with the item and quantity needed.Get back to me if you can ship to that destination and also if you accept the payment type I indicated. Kindly return this email with your Website. I await your quick response.( SEND ME YOUR WEBSITE)" Seems strange to me...anyone else receive an email from this person? | |

Hi Nancy, These sort of emails come through almost on a weekly basis. I just delete and bounce them. If this guy was really a purchasing manager, his English would be much better than what is written in that email. I find it a dead giveaway. And why would he be wanting your website if he has already seen your product?? I think these scammers need to get a life and go back to school! | |

Hi Nancy,
I think Sandi's right. I googled the name and the word 'scam' and they came up together a few times. | |
