i cant speel worth a danm because i had no idea i would ever be doing this internet thing when i was in school-so i always blew off english-

but if i was a scammer i sure as heck would buy that spell check thing so i would look legit-

what about email for presciptions-some of those are spelled so bad
 
:D Roger I got another one this morning card number and all that I'll play with some before I give them the bad News..
I'll have the Card number invesagated first by the Card holders bank..;)

that comes with the territory sad to say. but knowing what and how to check is key..I got took once and that's all it took for me..and that was out of NY.
this stuff from across the pond is a lot easier to spot and say no to..but I
play them some and get card numbers out of them and report them to the card holders banks and they in turn let their customer know that their card number has been compromised, the card holder seldom gets caught having to pay a dime if it's been used this way, it's the merchant like me that is the card banks guaranty
we have the responsibility to make sure it's done right. if not it gets taken right back out of our bank account until it's been straightened out.. it's called a charge back..
it's also called A PITA .:(
 
I think the CC companies should give rewards for turning in numbers that are stolen, but you know they won't. They make money-even on deals gone bad...

I agree but there are 1000's of stolen numbers out there.
City bank had an internal leak of who knows how many card numbers by employee/s if their's that's why it's up to the merchant to do the leg work to make sure the merchandize goes to the billing address of the card number given, that way if there is a problem the card owner either goes good for the product or returns it, the bad guy can't miss-use the card number that way..

Guys,
I'd check into that CC# and maybe reply to the sender to find out more info. One the homeland security boys would love to be able to find the internet protocol that was coming from. Second, there is a new Hyundai Motor Company asssemblr plant that just opened up in the south and all of its amnagers are from Korea. They don't get to just buy stuff liek knives on the internet when they are in Korea. I have five different engineering offices I support in China, Korea, and Japan and if had read that first poat on my work email I would have guessed it was from the Shanghai, China office by the verbage and use of english.

Most likely your right though and its a scam.

this one is a scam that's why I check with the card holders bank.
I called the bank and the card is out of the us and is now shut down from use. they told me a differant owners name and billing address...

they've just sent me another M/C # after telling them,,,, the card don't work for some reason??:D :) I've gotten up to 6 numbers out of these guys, before they catch on :( to bad so sad :D
the bank fraud dept will take down all this information. some of them anyway
some of the banks don't care a whole lot..most do though..
