Can Someone Tell me if these people are legit?

I placed an order and all I got was:

"we cant process your order at this time. We will try again in another 24-48 hrs. You will recive a confirmation E-Mail if we bill your CC"

Sounds like a load of crap to me. I tried to contact them all all I get is an online form to fill out, no phone #'s or anything. I went to WHOIS and looked up the domain and it is registerd to some guy in RUSSIA! So yeah now I figure Im screwed and this clown has my CC #.

Call the Credit Card company NOW.

I'd go ahead and report that you suspect FRAUD and want new numbers and cards.

Inform your CC service and explain the situation, then follow through with a written request, etc. Be on record you're trying to stop the purchase, if anything you're stuck with the $50 fee and not the whole purchase if anything.

good luck Happy -----Willy

Yeah looks like you are screwed. They are about as legit as I am a monkeys uncle. hehe
I would never give out my credit card number even in the best of circumstances, Even after havin communicated with a site for a while.. I would make sure they are at least in the mainstream market. Grin
