I can guess the answer BUT can anybody confirm for me whether this site is dodgy/scam please?

Very tempting but something doesn't sit right..not least the name:rotfl:

    but the post code does not work on Google Maps. The B4 area does not have an Aldridge Road.

    There is a local Aldridge Road but 101 Aldridge Road seems to be someone else

    The website looks quite swish, but to then have your contact details wrong seems a bit odd.

    The website is also not registered as a business either - it's shown as "other UK entity" which tends to raise doubts about it. If they are conducting trade via a website then it ~must~ be registered as a business.

    Its a genuine company registered at companies house and was created in Sept 2011 but the registered address is the offices of a South Asian Accountancy Firm called Hasmuk Patel & Co. They are not due to lodge accounts until Sept 2013 but a due a company return in January 2013. The post code appears to be a typo. It should probably be B42.
