This is a fraud and a scam phone number

This guy is at it again. This time he is Jim Glen and wants 100 sheets of shoji paper for an address in Isreal.

I checked on Google Maps both the addresses for the two Mastercards he gave me and they were not perfect and the maps could not come up with the exact addresses. They were close but not exact.

I checked his name (Jim Glen) and a similar one came for the first card address he gave me. The card would not work. He called again the next day with a new card, again it would not work.

I think he is working with also as the  freight company, since he asked that I use only Ocean Freight Line. I did look up  that company on the Internet but the freight company I found had something about it I did not like.  I did not like the email sent to me confirming the shipping price.

He would not let me ship his order direct from my vendor in Japan but had to have the product shipped to me in Hawaii and then sent on to him. The fright would have cost him $1000 more for the order.

Here is some more information that I have for these people:

He wanted the order shipped to:
Ben Larry
Ceramiccon Hashalom
9, Hashomron St.
Kochau, Yair
Isreal

Here is the email address he used:

jim.glenoffice2@gmail.com

I am going to call my credit card vendor right now and see if I report this in any way. I shall report back to with what I am told to do if it is worth repeating.

I just tried to call Mastesrcard and it is like calling NOTHING. I got two options - am a cardholder or a merchant.

I first picked merchant and the recording said they could not help me so to contact my credit card vendor.
Then I picked card cardholder and got recordings that gave me a response and then the phone goes dead.

The phone number I used had been given to me by my credit card vendor (I am not sure if that is the correct terminology for the company that supplies my terminal for credit card sales.)

I went to the Mastercard website and submitted a complaint, but I am sure anything will happen.

Looks like it is hard to do a good deed.

I have found out a little more about this incident.
I was given two different Mastercard  numbers. What I now know is that the first six numbers are the issuing bank for the card. The bank has to be notified if there is a problem and Mastercard has nothing to do with the fraudulent use of credit cards.
The first bank I contacted was AT&T Universal, which said it could do nothing. I believe this card was still active since I was able to get the balance, the amount due and the last payment made. I put in the card number and the zip code to get this information.
The second bank, Capitol One, put me through to the fraud department. The man there said the card had been canceled, but again he said he could do nothing.
As I understand it, because I was not the cardholder the banks could not take any action on the attempted fraudulent use of these cards.
I hope if someone calls to report the fraudulent use of my credit card, my bank calls me and tells me someone is using my card.
This whole thing makes me very angry.

This clown, now named Ken Bruce is attempting to purchase fine art bronze sculpture from my company.

I feel sorry for any business that does not check out potential customers when they try to purchase online items.

Business owners beware! Check out online buyers before accepting credit cards or shipping merchandise.

I got this SCAM from that person:

I didn't think twice and sent quote. He immediately got back with a credit card number wanting to place the order. He asked to run $1000.00 first, and if that went through to run the rest, but that card got declined. I told him it didn't go through and he provided another card, except the address for the second was in California, whereas the first one was from North Dakota. So I ran it anyway and it went through! He happened to call me after I ran his card asking if it went through. I was suspicious at that time so I told him that he needs to come in with the credit card so I can make carbon copy, get a copy of his I.D. and get signature on credit card receipts. He then hung up and I haven't heard back from him since. I guess I should've known right away but I am too busy trying to my a great success of my business.
I've reported this to the FBI and sorry to whoever's card I charged...

This is the email I received. No call back when I said we do Pick Up only.        Hello Yvonne

Hello what happened at the end i received a order for 1600 shirts to go to ghana.

Same here... 3000 shirts.
Calls me at odd hours to "make a payment". (2:00 am)
Please note he has phone numbers from many area codes. His last call was a local number.
Sometimes Miami, California, DC, and now Dallas.. 972-213-1959

jmprk20900@gmail.com

asks for quote on product we don't advertising on website.  wants to pick up at location.  wants to know what types of CC we accept.

please beware!

So glad I found this site! Got an email from Peter Cash (pcash12345@gmail.com). Wanted 2000 tshirts (mostly smalls) and price was not really an object. He called from phone number
904-834-4704. Spoke with him today. He speaks very broken english and gave me a MC but wanted me to give him a total without shipping before charging. Card was in a woman's name from NC and he wanted us to drop ship the shirts to Michigan. Needed this to go through ASAP and has already called me again 3 times in the matter of 15 minutes, but I haven't answered due to checking into the info. he gave me. Have reported it to the local police. Seemed VERY sketchy from the beginning and luckily went with our gut feeling. Staying far away from this one!

I know spam instantly now. They all sound about the same. I get about 3 a year like this. First catch is who writes "Dear" anymore. Plus people usually want quotes before they ask "How can I pay." The name of the banner was a instant clue for me as well. Also, there IP is from Africa.

This was an email from out contact form.
