WARNING - Yester Computer Ltd

lauraloo_4

I wasn't sure where I could post this so thought it would be helpful to put it here so we can spread this as far as possible.

Recently both myself and my boyfriend used the above website to buy a Nintendo DS as they had an amazing offer. (approx 3 weeks ago)

After entering all our personal banking details and receiving a confirmation email we instantly received a message telling us the order had been cancelled due to incorrect info entered, insufficient funds blah blah etc etc.

Last week, someone kindly used my boyfriends cards details to transfer money via the Western Union and it certainly wasn't him, this was the only place they could have got his details from and funnily enough, you can no longer access the website.

Rant over, a word of warning to anyone who has used this site - cancel your card as I have before thet take any money.

According to Companies House this company has never existed.

Sounds like a dodgy overseas scammer using a made up co name. A quick Google of the name also brings up no links.

Thats exactly what it is. There will not be any links to it if they have closed it down.

People should take more care when buying things off line

Even if it had been closed down it would still be in the cached pages.

Do you still have the confirmation email? If so, display the full headers, and
copy them into this thread.

Yes i know what a website address is, but the website doesnt exist any more as the OP said.

What does that mean? The OP has come on here to warn others and you come out with a smart comment like that?? seems like your the one of school holidays

Even though the website doesn't exist anymore, details of it will do if you look in the correct place. Then you can find out where its registered etc etc

It would still be cached and available to view given the timescales involved as already stated and which you seem to deliberately ignore.

The OP has booked in once to post the original message then never again. Its about a company which doesn't exist. There is no record on the net nor indeed a record at companies house. A little basic research can tell you that but you have taken what the OP said as gospel and ignore the opposing view
If its genuine let the OP come back with more details otherwise I'm going out to play :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:
