This could be starting again. Just got the info below. The last one like it was from Sasha Fox. I replied saying it is very easy to order directly from my website and to follow the online ordering instructions. I have not replied to this one, but I feel it is bogus, too. Did a search for the # and it is from Missouri. Definitely far from Ohio.

Hey I got the same person too just yesterday, what can/should we do? Where do they find this information at?I contacted H.O. and they said to spam her on my email and contact the Federal Trade Commission via email to report the issue. Their email is [email protected]. I hope this helps other too.Thanks.

Totally get that it has all the signs of a scam...but I thought these scams worked with you depositing some overly huge amount in your account and then writing a check for the difference back to the person. (If they owe you $10 but send you a check for $110 and ask you to send the difference ($100) back.)In this the person is offering a money order - isn't that as good as cash in hand? What am I missing?Or are the phishing for address and personal info?

There are huge money order and cashiers checks scams out there. It will be returned and you are out double for the money order and the order you placed for them and shipped.
