Wii Deal

I've been looking for a good deal on a Wii and using Martin's Shop Bot tool I found this http://www.willnexgames.co.uk/font-size4-color800000-nintendo-wii-bundles-on-sale-font-11-c.asp

Seems too good to be true - has anyone used it? What do people think?

  • I Completed An Order Form Today For A Nintendo Ds Lite Bundle. The Order Form Requested Alot Personal Details Regarding Credit Card Details, Home Telephone Number, Date Of Birth & Time At Current Address Etc. Soon As I Completed The Order Form The Site Immediately Posted A Reply Order Unsuccessful.
    Personally I Think Its Not Quite It Makes Out And I Hope I Dont Get Ripped Off Or Be A Victim Of Id Theft.
    I Tried Contacting Them All They Have Is A Online Contact Us Form And No Telephone Number.

    if i was you i would ring your credit card company now and cancel your card.
    With all the info they asked you if you answered correctly i would try and find a way of keeping an eye on new things opening in your name and address. They have even been known to use your details in a new address and use your previous address as back up so you don't even know till weeks after

    i am with izzy_flint on this one, ring your card company up as soon as possible, you should never have been asked as many questions as that just to make a purchase, Dave
    Take every day as it comes!!

    That's what I was thinking! Anyway I had a look at that site and just tried going through an order, I got to the credit card entry part and before I'd put in any details I must've clicked confirm. Funnily enough I got the following message:

    [FONT=verdana, arial]Your order has been placed.

    Make sure you make note of your order number, which is...

    1783/110109/08
    You will be receiving an email shortly with confirmation of your order.

    [/FONT]
    So I think the fact that they don't even have any software to identify correct CC numbers seems to indicate they're a bit fake (either that or they're REALLY badly setup and they just contact you if the CC details are wrong, and I don't really believe that!).

    Oh and I saw whilst some pages were loading, it was connecting to the following website:

    http://www.gamestarpro.co.uk/

    This site shows exactly the same layout, so another phishing site.

    What does it matter?

    I could ask you why your sentence doesn't actually make sense but let's not be picky now :p
