Customer fraud

made me laugh though

[Essex_boy]

received an email - NOT from our west african friends, but from south America, this guy claims to have placed an order for a game we started selling last week.

Only he bought it last month...... the transaction code isnt recognised, in the middle of it the word WOOF appears!

Oddly enough he cant find the emailed payment receipt no surprise there 'cos we cant either.

10/10 for effort, it took me an hour or so to realise he was a liar.

Wow. Creativity, at least! But that means you had to spend longer in figuring out he was a fraudster... Is it worth it in amusement value?
Woof indeed.

The worst queries are from people who order from a competitor and then ask us why they haven't gotten their order yet. Happens often; people forget who they order from. And it takes us up to an hour to determine that.

Good point about "innovative" fraud being time consuming. We handle orders from Nigeria/Indonesis with one touch of the delete button.

Yeah I suppose thats another possible thing that may ave happened.

He hasnt come back yet and 3 days have passed, its almost worth sending the game to him as a prize for effort.

I wonder how many times they pull it off?

[plumsauce]

Are these physical board games that you sell?

[Essex_boy]

yes they are. The one thats in the news alot board game cant ghett it in the USA currently. I almost have a monOPOLY on it at the moment.

Very heavy and costly to ship that I do know.

[wonderboy]
