Title: bigwinterdeals.com BEWARE
Post by: wcSki on December 12, 2006, 07:56:11 PM
Hey,

   

   I was looking for an IPOD as a x-mas gift... I did a search and found one very cheap at the above website. When I went to the site to purchase the ipod I found that you need to purchase $500.00 minimum and you MUST wire transfer cash using western union to a person in Italy. It raised HUGH RED FLAGS for me and I did not go through with the purchase.... I have been searching the net and I think it is a big scam site. They say the have to european status as a safe site because they have a EICA-FRAUDS (European Internet certificate agency)... but when I go to that site I can not even find companies list say they are safe... it is a very well put together scam...

   

   Any of you european's heard of this place or scam??

   

   Hope nobody gets taken...

Yeah ive seen it on Ebay but it did look really dodgey anything which u purchase with western union you need to make sure that who you are buying it from is trusted.
