New Scam/Fraud website.

Can I bring this to the attention of all forum members ? Scam/Fraud website.

Many won't fall for it but some might, it's an online model shop that is supposedly closing down, everything dirt cheap too, they are using Hamleys London address for the fake online shop, Hamleys in London are aware of it, but the word needs to get around its a scam,

First seen on Facebook so I've reported the page to Facebook some ten times now but will not take it down because it's a sponsored advert.

I'd hate to read some gullible person had put in their bank details and lost the lot, below is the site and my reply from Hamleys.

I forget these days if I'm honest! But recently finished a rally car, so i'll post it up in the car section.

Back to the scam/fraud website, they've now ditched the Hamleys address and is now using this address:

Sandyheath Retail Ltd
Unit 5 Woodcock Hill Industrial Estate
Harefield Road
Rickmansworth
Herts
WD3 1PQ.

I've also reported the scam here, more people know, the quicker it gets torn down.

Great show Ian, thank you for allerting tbe crowd!

It's obvious to many that the website is a scam but there will be folk who jump in there and order bargin priced items, they'll never get their items nor' their money back neither, on Facebook about 3 have used the website and paid, giving the scam website their bank details, just can't tell them straight and they say it's only a few quid, so if it doesn't arrive, then no skin off their noses, but heck they've got their bank details! Wouldn't think that way if 'whoever' emptied the bank accounts of all their cash

This shop has changed it's address three times now, using previous address's
