- Alexszwed, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Hello,
I too received this scam.
To report any kind of internet scam go to www.ifccfbi.gov/index.asp This is the FBI compaint centre, and they will look into it. - HangingBAT, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Hi,
I am in Australia and just received this scam yesterday (11 December).
Thank you Rasputin89 for having this info available.
I had noticed a very strange order on my E-Commerce page and assume that is how they got my address.
I will report it to the relevant authorities here in Adelaide.
Hope they do not profit too much before they get shut down.

- Suolucidir, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0This scam is great entertainment. A customer of our company received an invoice for $917 regarding their FREE hosting account.

- SavannahSmith, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0My husband just came home with his "invoice" today.
I think I will send them a fake cheque.
We're in Canada. - sheathe, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Thanks for the post - one of our customers faxed us a copy of this scam letter too.
- vishalwoollen, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Unbelievable man. How these peoples can think we are fool. They have sent us same invoice for our website. (www.vishalgroups.org). Well, At the first point we must be careful. If we know that we don't have to pay then we are right. These peoples must be punished for such scams.
Anyways, Thanks to Digg.com as well.

India - Kiwikorean, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Hi, and also thank you Rasputin89. I am in South Korea and just received this mail the other day.
They want me to renew my web site for $966.00 by sending the money to the Loyal Bank.
I will be contacting the Korean Fraud Office today.
Thank you again. - clievers, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Yes, our Company received one of these today. Fortunately we saw one a few weeks ago for our Partner company, so already discovered the scam. We are also in Canada, so these could be going anywhere.
- tanamas, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0I think this is the stupidest scam in 2006.
Within 24 hours after receiving their SPAM, their website has been brought down, and perhaps they are in jail already.
They don't relize that the internet itself which brings them to jail.
Maybe someone in New York can check this address:
CRS Corporation
1133 Broadway, Suite 706
New York, NY 10010 - bayramozektas, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0I have just received the same mail - invoice. All the details are same. They use the information that we give to business/trade directories on the internet to sell our products.
Please beware!
We are based in Konya, Turkey. - Anthia325, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0We received the bogus invoice on Dec. 11, 2006. Our domain name was registered years ago(this is a doctor's office) and we employ a reputable company to maintain our website so red flags shot up. We thought, "What the hell is this bill?"
I'm with SavannahSmith. Send them Monopoly money.
We're in Hawai'i. - theopoon, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Our customers get these scam letters too, I was recieving at least 5 phone call support for these...
Do these scam bag really thinks people would send them their $$?
