Then I tried to contact the guy at the phone number to which had a very BAD connection and kept cutting out.

Then we googled the number and read the post above and also on another site so thank you everyone!!!!!!  We just sent an email back saying we could not process the order.

Thanks again!
I hope no one falls for this.

I also received the order above, I will cancel all and every correspondence with this person.  I advise anyone else who has received this to do the same and report this as fraud.

I just had the same exact experience and the guy actually telephoned me at work to discuss it further. They are pretty bold. Thanks to everyone for posting on here to confirm what we were feeling.

They tried again today.  Different product group this time.  Same reply email to a "T".  When things seem to good to be true...they probably aren't true.
