SCAM - YourDigitalElectronics

[exuL1B47]

Hello
I have good reason to suspect that "Yourdigitalelectronics" is a Phishing site or at the very least a scam outfit. I don't know what their up to but I became suspicious when the would not answer or return any of my e mails or phone calls. They claim that they have been in business for many years; how could that be without leaving some sort of foot print? I have alerted all of the gov and private sites and they are investigating the site.

I would like to add my two cents to this place. I live about 10 minutes from this supposed location. The address is either a Construction site or motel. I couldn't tell which. I too was very disappointed the prices seemed to good to be true so that is why i drove over there. Buyer beware!!

Good finds, exuL1B47 and nomaxim. It's great to see press on this.

Mark Hachman of PC Magazine iterates what we have been telling our readers for years - avoid stores that require a minimum dollar amount purchase, do not order without a credit card, etc.

One of the best resources on the Web to monitor suspected scam sites is this thread on ResellerRatings.com . . .

Seems this is another version of this scam. There is a language icon "choose your language", but only English is available. Seem the scammers lack some language skills. This time, the stolen picture from a university in Finland is back on.

Funny how a company located in Orange California has you send payment to Italy.

There is a good reason their billing department is in Italy, because it is run by the Mob...
