I'm working on web orders for my store right now. Big ol' red flag popped up on a book ordered through our store website. Buyer is in Nevada. We're in Texas. They opted to buy a $144 textbook, plus super expensive shipping, bringing the order to about $200.
They're phone number is area code 723, which a quick reverse look up says doesn't exist, and a quick google points out as being a telemarketer area code. A quick reverse look up of the address shows it belongs to a completely different person. Great, more fraud orders are starting to roll in. Shiny happy fun times!
Ok, no...
Flagged the order. C&Ped pertinent details to regional LP. Let's see if they actually do something. I'm going to cancel this order, though. Seriously, the book they're looking for can be found on Amazon or Half for literally half of what they're trying to "pay" us on our store website. I know they're not students at any of the schools my store sells books for. And further, WHY are you ordering a textbook for a college bookstore website that is in no way affiliated with your city, let alone your state? Why? Do you think we're stupid and we won't catch on? (probably, but you're dumber than us, asstard!)
Ugh, I don't want to deal with this, I'm still catching up on paperwork and forms from the last batch of fraudsters... >.>
Happy Monday!
