The guy calling had a different name than the guy that made the purchase and they had already received the product. She said the guy had to notify the bank and the bank would straighten the mess out. She suspected a scam and I'm inclined to agree with her. After all, she's smarter than anybody in the office. She's even smarter than me and my wife. I frequently pick her brain. > > > Yes, the first person he should have called was the bank and like the owners > wife said, let the bank sort it out. Sounds like a scam to me as well. It's kind of a clever scam. The mere mention of credit card fraud strikes fear into the minds of business guys. They tend to have an out of body experience which makes them susceptible to suggestion. |
