Like a couple others, I created an account to contribute. Condolences to those that gave this crook money. I ws looking for some 5.7x28, and O&A came up through a more reputable search engineThe price didn't seem
too far off from norm. But, something seemed fishy with the payment section. Kicked up an error about the merchant account being suspended. They kicked up a message to that email about the bullshit line
"The credit card terminal is temporarily down. If you placed an order using a credit card, you will not be billed and your order will be cancelled unless you take further action.
We currently accept Bank Transfers, Check Payments, Money Orders, Venmo, Zelle Payments, and Cash through the mail.

I've been dealing with fraud for 20 years. Looking at what this joker was asking for on the page, and in the email, my Spidey senses were tingling, so I looked things up. Nice that the DA is getting involved here. I did see that he put in a bank transfer option.... I wonder if the dead prince guys are looking for this to make their deposit of the 250 million pounds, dollars, francs, euros, whatever it was...

From my professional experience, I'm a little surprised that he's managed to stay operational for as long as he has. Unfortunately, his registrar/host Go Daddy has an occasional knack for hosting scam sites that have been paid for. Maybe enough abuse complaints to GD might get him knocked off their hosting. He's using a masked domain registry, so tough to tell if he's putting up fraudulent information - which would get the registry suspended/terminated.
